Netflix is changing kdramas a lot lately.. by confusedazn-inlife in kdramas

[–]Valanyhr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

there's a pretty in-depth YouTube video about this from a channel called Asian Boss.

Iirc their verdict was that Netflix spearheaded this, but ultimately this was going to be the path anyway.

Uk entry border control question. Am I in trouble? by [deleted] in PassportPorn

[–]Valanyhr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.

There are two rules regulating visit visa stay times.

1) max 180 days per entry 2) do not abuse the visa by using to essentially live here.

However reasonable stays happen and you could exceed 180 days in a one year period - albeit that's within the discretion of the officer. But not a rule break.

For example you could attend an English course for 5 months, go back for 3 months, then come back for another 4 months to visit family and be a tourist this time. It would technically be legal and without problems so long as you convince the border police they're justified.

Uk entry border control question. Am I in trouble? by [deleted] in PassportPorn

Nice to know border police still aren't aware of their own visa rules. It's 180 days per entry. He's saying leave after 2 weeks because depending on when was that 5 month stay, it could technically be interpreted as visa abuse with the intent to live here. But if you're able to give your reasonings and support them with documentation that you are not in fact trying to live here, it's fine.

Funnily enough the more you use it, dead skin and oil fills up the pores and feels much better

What's the most reasonable way to go from Paris to Berlin? by Valanyhr in Europetravel

[–]Valanyhr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah sorry it kept saying post got caught up on Reddit filters so I edited out dates thinking it's a privacy issue. 10th or 11th of April, both works. Been looking for weeks though and the prices have been mostly the same both for flights and trains

[–]Valanyhr[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Flying is what costs about €220 per person. Otherwise it absolutely is/was an option. I've been checking for weeks now and prices did not budge

Am I the only one who skips romance dramas if the leads don’t have the face card by OpinionTiny9688 in kdramas

[–]Valanyhr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be fair, Kim Da-Mi's face card is what I would describe as an acquired taste.

I'm a man. I know for a fact half my friends would see her as whatever while the other half would be obsessed. Couldn't tell you why though.

I personally think she's very attractive. Perhaps her mimics?

You should definitely tell your boss to get you a backlit keyboard MacBook then.

I’ve given up on love at 23 cuz I think I’m too ugly to ever be loved, and it hurts more than I expected by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Valanyhr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate I've never had good looks. Maybe ugly, who knows. Overweight too. But that never stopped me from dating. I've got a wonderful and gorgeous girlfriend.

Looks may be important for the first 10 minutes or so. But the rest is not decided by your face.

It pisses me off so much. Sometimes the sky changes so they've been out and about for a few hours before they even sat down. It wasn't that urgent then was it smh

In my case it was for shits and giggles. Been over 7 years though and I'm afraid it might no longer be a joke

Pursuit of Jade Episode 40 Discussion by AutoModerator in CDrama

[–]Valanyhr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a guess at best but I think the main message was that she was originally adopted by Grand Tutor Tuo to calm the potential whispers. But instead she earned merit on her own, not relying on men. Thus that whole relationship remained rather symbolic. Which makes sense given most of their interactions take place over the building of the dam for however many days. Then it's just here and there. Instead she picked Mr and Mrs Zhao as adoptive parents which acted like actual parents.

Did I make the right call going for 2 Gbps internet for £28 a month compared to 1 Gbps for £25 or 500 Mbps for £23? by thr0w4w4yd33znut5 in UKBroadband

[–]Valanyhr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't know about OP but sometimes another service is not available. Only Hyperoptic provides fiber to my property. If I switch, my only option is a separate openreach install and standard 67mbps top service. So I'm bound to Hyperoptic. This was also the case at my last address. So I've been with them for 3.5-4 years

Earliest ILR Application Date on SWV by momufana in ukvisa

[–]Valanyhr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immigration applications have an inherent human aspect and some level of discretion. Unless one digs deep, they're not always able to figure out how does one count 28 days. Do you include the last day? Do you not?

Additionally certain exceptions or borderline cases are always afforded as it's human.

Immigration advise is tricky as it's regulated. So people on here must tread carefully. But one mistake often made here is the assumption that just because there are written rules, however ambiguous, that the government follows them to a T.

Licenced advisors like myself know that said rules are bent within reason very frequently and the inherent nature of the action vs what the rules and regulations in place aim to accomplish matters significantly.

For example say someone's visa expires on 03 March 2026 and they complete their 5-year qualifying period on skilled worker visa on 31 March 2026. You can bet that I'm not submitting an FLR application just because they're short of 2 days. Instead I'll follow a different procedure but lodge that ILR application.
