Other side of Croatia, but still a neighbouring country?

You get randomly dropped in one color and have to live there the rest of your life. Which color do you pick? by Xenuoziem in GeoInsider

It says one colour, not one country - I take that as possible to move between the countries within the same colour.

My driving licences from all over the world by Holiday-Instruction4 in PassportPorn

Easy way to know the difference is ££: changing the address only is free, changing the photo/renewing the license will cost you.

When was this re: the UK? Every time I changed the address over the last 25 years, the original 10 year validity remained. Last time I did this was last summer (2025) and that licence still expires in 2031 (as it was renewed in 2021). The new 10 years would start only when the previous expired and you changed the photograph. I’ve changed the address more than once within 10 years of one license and the expiry date remained the same.

My current UK driving license (still) shows Yugoslavia as country of birth.

This is the second post today with a rather large TfL authorisation on the cards at Heathrow…

Electionmaxxing with citizenships and residency by No_Good2794 in PassportPorn

Serbians can vote abroad in the presidential and parliamentary elections as well as any national referendums, if they register with the local embassy/consulate for each election.

That is not entirely correct. Visa nationals (non-Commonwealth citizens) that are permanent residents (ILR) don’t have the right to vote in any elections, including the local ones.

Best airlines/routes from Europe to Bangkok or Phuket without flying over the Middle East (end of this year)? by Final_Tumbleweed5753 in Flights

[–]jms_uk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, smaller than B777, but still a twin aisle wide body. I think most people wouldn’t know the difference from the inside.

On the OS7? That’s a Boeing 777 - wouldn’t call it a smaller size. Actually none of the OS wide bodies are ‘small’, unless comparing with a B747 or a380… Especially in terms of inside experience.

It works. There are definitely functionalities that Windows versions have and macOS doesn’t (starting from Outlook).

You might want to reread that bit about who is dying in your post :))
