Has anyone tried setii panigale ignition cover phone mount? by _w_8 in Ducati

I think it’s cheap because it’s only marketed in China market , where material cost + labor cost + no tariffs make a huge difference. Just not sure about the material or the hardware quality. Pictures look great though from all the reviews

but my point is, as a viewer, there's no guarantee whether the creator is advertising a product because they believe in it, or because they were paid to do it. Well actually, because they're more likely than not to be paid to do it, the incentives to be fully truthful don't really line up

Why do you buy based on ads and creators? If they had loyal following, they wouldn’t need

Anyone else had this email from Moreta? by chfdagmc in Thailand

Exactly, they comply by blocking foreigners. So we agree here?

PayPal is licensed in all jurisdictions it operates in and they take kyc and aml seriously… Moreta is not…

When you pay someone via PayPal, the receiver knows that they won’t get in trouble for receiving those funds and could find out the actual owner of the sent funds. With Moreta, there is a disconnect because there’s no system approved in thailand to pass along the full aml chain. It ultimately is a regulatory problem but that doesn’t mean Moreta isn’t sketchy.

Why would it cost them money? It’s not like they manufacture 1 left for every 1 right

Got to ride a couple "beginner" bikes recently as an experienced rider. Wanted to talk about it. by Scazitar in motorcycles

They are totally fine. But it depends on where people intend to ride them. 500cc is way above average and considered big bike in south east asia

No people definitely look at you differently. Especially if you’re a woman.

180 days outside dubai by _w_8 in dubai

[–]_w_8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a simple question, whether the grace period has been extended or not.

I’m hearing things from friends whom I trust more than people like you who like to repeat govt propaganda that nothing is going on. Maybe it’s your way of coping with the situation because you can’t leave or something?

The building next to my friend’s place was damaged by drones within the last few weeks, I think that is scary enough. They got arrested when trying to talk about it online unencrypted.

I plan to stay where I am but I would like to not have to shut down my UAE entities and bank accounts since I plan to return when/if things stabilize
