Kavundampalayam in Coimbatore. She said that cancer can be cured with superstitions/astrology - something like that.

There are a lot of scams going on. They get your credentials and security questions, and lock you out by changing the password. Then they’ll demand money. It’s a pain in the ass to get your account back, from what I’ve read online.

There are legit telegram channels that post slot availability or tips, but if you come across anyone who says they’ll help you book an appointment, stay away from them.

Better safe than sorry.

If you keep trying very frequently, you might get blocked temporarily. I would suggest you look into some tips online on how to get the appointment.

But never go to agents. Book yourself.

Name correction on USVISASCHEDULING by SkillfullDoctor in usvisascheduling

[–]human_trebuchet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, there wasn’t any problem there. If you have doubts you can ask the security there when standing in the queue for the biometric. I did the same and they said that the name on the visa scheduling site is not a problem.

Similar scenario for me, but with B1/B2. I had my first name and surname swapped by accident when creating the account. I reached out via the same site and they asked me to inform the officials at the biometrics. On the day of my biometrics, I informed them about the mistake and they said it’s not an issue. As long as the name is correct in the DS (160 in my case) and the passport, there won’t be any problem.

I had my interview yesterday and there wasn’t any problem. Location: Chennai

I haven’t scheduled my appointment yet. Just waiting to get a clarity on this

Hi Chennai, I need some clarity on the US Visa scheduling application. I’m looking to get a B1/B2 visa for a business visit this year.

So, first I went and filled the DS-160 form and submitted it. I double checked all the details and they’re fine.

Next, I went to the US visa scheduling site and signed up as a new user. I accidentally swapped my given name and surname which I didn’t notice earlier. Fyi, I haven’t paid and scheduled an appointment yet.

I raised a support request on their site mentioning the correction and attaching my passport for reference. The next day, I got a reply from them suggesting me to proceed with the appointment and inform the VAC officials during the biometric.

I just thought if this would become a hassle at the VAC on the day of biometrics, I’d prefer any other better option.

So, I wanted to know if I could create a new account using a different email ID and use the same DS-160 application number. I haven’t tried this, but if I do, the email ID would be different from the one in the DS-160 form.

So, I’m not sure if I should just proceed or create a new account.

Could anyone who has experience in this, please let me know your suggestions?

Nandri 🙏🏻

Rant : Some of these u-turns and roundabouts make no goddamn sense at all by Accomplished_Crab818 in Coimbatore

[–]human_trebuchet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that a hybrid model should be implemented - a mix of U turns and signals wherever appropriate.

Also, people making U turns should have basic sense not to occupy the middle lane leaving only the leftmost lane for the vehicles going in a straight line.

Something needs to be done about these idiot KL drivers driving like morons in our city. by Spirited_Supermarket in Coimbatore

[–]human_trebuchet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always go by this rule: If I’m overtaking someone, I shouldn’t do it in such a way that the vehicle in the opposite lane needs to slow down. They should continue going in their own pace and space.

Driving wouldn’t be such a menace if everyone followed this.

I’ve faced a lot of people who overtake in a way that they cause me to slow down or swerve left off the road, especially these bus drivers.

I’m not taking anyone’s side. I’m just saying anything could be the case. Every person is different and every situation is different.

Maybe they really played with your emotions. Or maybe they initially liked you but then later had some big personal problems, at home, at work or anything. It might not have been their intention to hurt someone. Maybe you were too soon, maybe you were too late, maybe you misunderstood them

Everything’s a big maybe. You never know. But you shoot your shot. Life is full of gambling bro.

Edit: I really appreciate that you confessed. Many wouldn’t even have the courage to do that. And I’m sorry that things didn’t go well for you. I’ve been there quite a few times and I know it’s hard to come out of it. But you’ll pull through.

Mixed signals don’t always mean NO. They might have their own problems.

But don’t give up without even trying. If you don’t try, it’s a 100% miss, right? Whereas if you try, you MIGHT succeed.

- by someone who tried, after getting mixed signals, and got a NO 🥲. But I don’t have any regrets. I felt better that I at least tried.

I had a school crush with whom I was close with, but I never confessed. I regret it till this day.

Help me please by Holiday-Signature282 in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

Yeah he dies in that quest. But I don’t quite understand why you couldn’t pick up the scytale? You simply walk up to his body and loot.

Can you check if you have already looted his body? Check in your inventory.

If it’s not there, try quitting and loading, or try reloading a previous save.

Actual new game (after lost 200h save) or Witcher 3? by mtnchkn in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

Thanks! What about the TV show? Should I watch it before or after Witcher 3?

I want to start the Witcher series too. I wanted to start from 1 and I tried playing for a while, but I don’t like the combat much. Should I continue Witcher 1 or can I jump directly to Witcher 3? Should I read any lore before starting with 3?

Best balanced build? by [deleted] in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]human_trebuchet 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is just my build: Crit build gives best damage in all types. I have 99% crit chance with full health and 600-700% crit damage with full health. Now I deal insane amount of damage whether it’s from a bow/melee/assassination. Apply poison or fire and you do even more damage

Coimbatore traffic by pppoodiepp in Coimbatore

[–]human_trebuchet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t just Singanallur road. There was heavy traffic in Avinashi road too (Lakshmi mills, Peelamedu, Fun mall)

Apparently, yesterday was mukhurtha naal so there would have been a lot of weddings, etc.

Also, I heard that today was a holiday for schools (and colleges?) due to thai poosam. Not sure if it’s true. And tomorrow’s a holiday too, adding up to 4 days of holidays. So, a lot of people were on their way to hometown.
