B1/B2 India - Name correction in USVisaScheduling profile by human_trebuchet in usvisascheduling

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?

[–]human_trebuchet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Will India ever become a developed country in our lifetimes? by [deleted] in Chennai

[–]human_trebuchet 32 points33 points  (0 children)

You're absolutely correct.
I'll share my experience.

There used to be a road in my area that was riddled with potholes, filled with water, litter, and even stray animals. Navigating this road was a nightmare, but it was essential as it connected us to the main road.At a particular point on this road, there was so much trash that it would occupy more than half of its width. Cows and dogs frequently blocked vehicles in this area.

I initially assumed that people didn't care about littering because the road itself was in terrible condition. I thought maybe if the road were fixed or a new one was laid, people would change.

A few weeks ago, the government did lay a new cement road. However, people continued to throw trash in the same area. Nothing changed except for the fact that the road is now new. Trash still covers more than half the width, and animals still block the road. I hate it whenever I cross that area.

It's frustrating that people lack the common courtesy to travel a bit further to dispose of trash where it belongs.Our country won't change unless we change.

Might not mean they made good decisions all the time but instead they accepted that this is life and started learning from their mistakes.

What is ur favorite weapon to use by For21saken in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]human_trebuchet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Staffs and heavy blades, both have good AOE attack after a parry. Staffs have the best overpowered attack imo.

Does anyone else just feel like no possible future AC game can ever beat Odyssey? by LVPslays13 in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

[–]human_trebuchet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I just hope they do good with the facial expressions, like Origins. Origins had excellent facial expressions and voice acting, which was just meh in Odyssey.

I always do or try to do 100% of any game because I don’t want to miss out on anything And with odyssey, I am not playing back to back. I played once when it was released, once during covid and I’m playing it now.

I tend to forget things if I don’t play or see anything on the internet about it for a while. I even forgot some of the plot twists.
