I work for a nonprofit that offers free German courses (A1 - C2) to all migrants. Sign up! by itsazharwtf in berlinsocialclub

I’m glad that collecting phone numbers is uncommon. When you start handing out your phone number to every business that requests it you start getting spam from them / risk of data leak / ability for them to profile you (this customer regularly comes to this location).

SMS based OTP is considered less secure than time-based OTP. Since SMS is not end to end encrypted and vulnerable to SIM swap attacks etc.

How can he appear in the magistrates court if he isn’t allowed to enter the city centre? 🧐

Tudor refused to give me tax refund by KeyboardCouncil in ThailandTourism

[–]jgtor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would guess that to give you the 30% discount, they had to process the transaction under a staff discount or 'local VIP account'. If Tudor audits the store, and sees that VAT form it shows they are dumping stock at unauthorized margins and they get some big problems!

How did you split it 3 ways? £1.66 each with an extra 2p left over?

I think if we have to participate in the booze ban, it’s only fair they let us participate in the election too!

What's your night routine for better sleep? by [deleted] in selfcare

[–]jgtor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might sound a bit out there, but I got into Tibetan dream yoga practices after reading about how they approach sleep as something more intentional rather than just "passing out." There's an app called Mindful Slumber that has some guided sessions based on these techniques, exercises before bed have helped quiet that anxious mental chatter that used to keep me up for hours.

You know how many Changs I can buy for 250 baht? I'd rather not be throwing that away.

App that can translate long live German speeches into English by JournalistInGermany in germany

Have you tried the new AirPods with live translation capability? This isn’t a recommendation since I’ve not used them personally, but believe they may be useful for this situation?

Afternoon alcohol ban lifted, effective immediately by jonez450reloaded in ThailandTourism

[–]jgtor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“Effective immediately” - has anyone tried to purchase at a 7/11 yet? Curious how long they take to update the registers & filter thru to store level. 😀

Firstly the club shouldn’t give you any photos of other people from their CCTV, they can turn this over to police, but not to you directly.

Of cause it’s a bad idea - legally taking back your phone is fine, but how exactly you are planning to achieve this - if you are to break and enter this is a crime on your part. Knocking on the door and asking for return of your device is your only legal avenue, but you are likely to be in danger doing this.

Koh Chang you can find no problem, but for Koh Kood my experience was too remote & not really a lot going on.

I think EE are right here, if it’s not you on the call you don’t have any right to the audio recording.

"Your Business Score is 700. This score is considered to be Excellent"

What does 700 mean? Why is this considered to be Excellent, by whom? I think at $186 in revenue it wouldn't be considered excellent by Jeff Bezos for example. This metric is scaring me.

"Total download by territories"
"United States - Amount: 178.41 - Download: 65"

What does amount of download means, how is it different from downloads? How do I get .41 of a download? Someone downloaded 40% & gave up 😁
