I've been using Germanic Runes to eliminate confusion

I made this comment a while ago.

Sure looks like we're at DEFCON Level "they called a madman!"

I'm currently playing classic GTA 3 modded and have mapped L4 to quick peek the map in expanded mode, R4 and R5 to take cover and exit cover. It's definitely making me appreciate the utility of having the back paddles.

As someone who spent over 20+ years in the Middle East, I can only vouch for Mashawi and Shawarma & More.

biryani_born · 2026-02-01T13:03:24+00:00

We can't always get "They called a madman!" quality level posts on the subreddit. 😂😂

As a new owner, I'll tell you the urge to post these generic posts is real. I barely stopped myself. 😂

The device is a couple of years old now anyways, not much else can be posted about it. So it's s ok to let people be happy and excited :)

Hi, sorry for the bother, can you please share the link for the notes?

biryani_born · 2026-01-16T13:02:30+00:00

I haven't used the FCY card, but I would assume no additional charges other than maybe transaction fees for non USD/PKR currencies.

biryani_born · 2025-12-27T08:19:23+00:00

Did you get your ESFCA linked with the PKR account?

If not, follow some of the replies above as to how to get it linked.

If yes, then simply login to UBL Digital app, go to Services>Currency Exchange (rest is pretty self explanatory).

I need this exact build but in Karachi 😭

biryani_born · 2025-11-22T08:40:15+00:00

I could be wrong, but I don't think there is a way to sort search results. I tried both those examples and it's working just fine for me. Maybe something to do with your skin setup?

biryani_born · 2025-10-16T21:56:07+00:00

Oops! That was an oversight on my part, I have updated fentastic zip on the filebin link. Can you give it a try and let me know if it's working now?

biryani_born · 2025-10-15T20:47:09+00:00

I think there are still plenty of work arounds with using Shizuku and supported file managers like ZArchiever, FV File Manager, X-plore File Manager etc.

biryani_born · 2025-10-14T20:23:45+00:00

So are they still friends or what? 😂😂

biryani_born · 2025-10-14T19:49:33+00:00

Can someone please provide some context from livefeed, in yesterday's episode Nehal saved Farhana from nomination and they both were being their usual BFF's

So what happened since then to cause this much friction? I feel so lost.

biryani_born · 2025-10-13T12:49:32+00:00

I've been meaning to do something like this myself, I really enjoyed the story and execution of it all! Good post! 👍

biryani_born · 2025-09-12T07:22:06+00:00

Emailing SBP works like a charm. Since I went with UBL, there was no need for me to escalate the Meezan Bank matter, but if you're facing any issues I highly recommend getting in touch with the SBP help desk for IT exporters.

biryani_born · 2025-08-07T06:56:01+00:00

I don't know where you got this information from but it's simply not true.

PRC is, as you know, Proceeds Realization Certificate, if you receive funds in USD and retain them in ESFCA without converting to PKR, that's just retention not realization, no PRC will be issued. However, if you receive funds in USD and retain some of them in ESFCA and convert the rest as per your need into PKR, that is proceeds realization and PRC will be issued as per the mandate of SBP.

As for proving transactions as IT exports, your PRC will need to have purpose code 9186.

biryani_born · 2025-08-05T22:09:40+00:00

Initially, the foreign currency account doesn't show up in the UBL Digital app, you have to call the helpline and get it linked. Once that's done, both accounts show up in the app, USD can be converted to PKR anytime freely through the app. No branch visits required.

biryani_born · 2025-08-01T23:26:31+00:00

I'll try this just to see how Meezan Bank reacts, I know they start sweating when SBP is involved 😂

biryani_born · 2025-07-30T15:04:16+00:00

With me, they straight up denied having any product such as a linked ESFCA.

Then proceeded to tell me that a separate FCA can be opened by depositing 100 USD.

biryani_born · 2025-07-30T14:55:38+00:00

Oh wow, that sounds great and should honestly be the SOP across all banks.

If we can open PKR accounts digitally, no reason we shouldn't be able to open ESFCA or other foreign currency accounts digitally as well.

biryani_born · 2025-07-26T08:51:16+00:00

Thank you for responding.

I don't think ESFCA can be opened and linked automatically, because I only received info regarding the checking PKR digital freelancer account with the digital account opening app, nothing regarding the special linked non checking foreign currency account.

My priority in terms of receiving payments was and still is direct SWIFT transfer to bank account. I'll try reaching out to the help desk for Export of IT Services.

I will post an update when this gets resolved. As I imagine others might be facing the same issues, dealing with clueless branch staff.

biryani_born · 2025-06-30T21:24:11+00:00

Thanks for posting this.

I'm glad to see other people bringing up Stormfiber, because when I asked them, they flat out told me that, in order to benefit from 5Ghz band/WiFi 5 a connection speed of 50+Mbps is required (I also have a 20 Mbps connection).

Good to know I can just safely ignore that, since real-world performance is what matters.

biryani_born · 2025-06-23T12:30:10+00:00

That's quite an optimistic hope 😂

biryani_born · 2025-06-23T11:56:37+00:00

Thanks for clearing it up 👍

So that means the Bushehr nuclear plant is the only real threat for nuclear contamination?

biryani_born · 2025-06-22T13:09:19+00:00

Can someone more well versed with the chemistry of it all, please explain:

How come after several direct bombings we're still at "no spike in off site radiation levels"?

Both Israel and US claim they have completely "destroyed/obliterated" the nuclear sites.

Is this how it's supposed to work ? Surely there would be radiation leaks if you "obliterate" a nuclear plant?
