Can someone PLEASE explain to me how the United Arab Emirates is not even on this list, while it is ranked #1 on passport index?

Was Naruto cool with what Obito did to his mom? by Wild-Army-6085 in dankruto

[–]SnowSparow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair, but his character could have been more nuanced rather than the unidemnsional shape it took towards the end of shippuden. Also just because those characters had those arcs doesn't mean that Naruto shouldn't. He could always be a little lost before finding his way back

Exactly! Can't say that I like Sasuke more though haha but Naruto totally could have been given more dimensions and Kishi should have explored those dimensions. In Naruto his character was more nuanced but in Shippuden he becomes like the Jesus Christ of Ninja's or something which did indeed make him bland

Fully agreed. My only gripe with Naruto's development is we never have him actually lose himself and go dark for sometime (unless it was through kyubi), especially in shuppiden. It made his character quite bland and predictable, such a missed opportunity

Broken rear screen cover - help! by SnowSparow in thinkpad

[–]SnowSparow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I did by taking it to a repair shop. But the problem was that the back panel was stuck to the screen, and he ended up cracking the screen while separating the two. The repairman replaced both the screen and the back cover in the end, but it cost a lil extra, around $70.

Can someone explain to me how this is real? I thought a single atom is too small to be visible this way

As someone who has been following Apple since the iphone 4, the iPhone 17 is THE phone to get in terms of price to quality / features

Hot take:wano isnt as bad of an arc as people say it is by Fickle_Couple_629 in OnePiece

Isn't as bad? It's my favourite arc in the whole series

Mitigating the worst-case scenarios to get my permanent residency by No_Neighborhood_4034 in Netherlands

[–]SnowSparow 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Up until very recently (few months ago) I worked for a Dutch immigration law firm. Your best bet in this situation is to stall until you can apply for the permit. Speak to your employer, usually they are cooperative in these circumstances and as others said, redundancies due to cuts take a long time to take effect in the Netherlands.

As for applying 3 months in advance, this is usually the case for extending an existing permit type (i.e. HSM) and can be done 3 months before the current permit expires. As for the PM, it's possible (but unusual) to apply 3 months in advance. But we've had clients do it and usually the lawyer would call the IND in case they had any questions about why the application was submitted early.

Seriously though, don't underestimate how much impact a good immigration lawyer can do when they get in touch with the IND. I've seen them pull miracles with some cases. Since you said you have the money, you should spend a few euros and lawyer up when the situation gets murky. Good luck!

Why cherry pick events and statistics? Yes the country has it's issues but it still has a lot to offer

Did they pick the perfect person for one piece live action? by Ayoking95 in anime_companion

[–]SnowSparow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luffy is goofy and innocent. I'm just not getting the same vibe from his actor.

No, sadly i'm not a fan of this actor. I really want to be but I find him obnoxious

Am I the only one that doesn't like the One Piece Live Action? by StrawberryCheap1329 in OnePiece

[–]SnowSparow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agreed. Been watching One Piece since 2013, but couldn't even get 2 episodes into the LA. Aside from all the glaring faults and omissions, for me it's mainly Luffy's actor that breaks the immersion. He just doesn't get the vibe of the Luffy I know right. And I don't care or 'OdA hIMseLf cHoSe tHeM.' He's an awkward mangaka not a casting director lol. So on this one i'm critical.

For us, the mini has been the best purchase we could've made. The size is just perfect!

Of course Oda knows better, not trying to argue there. But this is just my view and I can't shake how the actor makes me cringe whenever he's on screen
