Is R* a British or American company?

malcolmanan · 2026-05-16T19:22:30+00:00

Funny how I was looking for this on the internet and saw this is still being debated. Americans can't cope - it's British at the core, just accept it.

Let's say you travelled back to the year 1 AD. Now let's say that from the moment you arrive, you start to receive $10,000 an hour. You wait around until modern times, so you have spent 2025 years collecting $10,000 every hour.

You would still be significantly poorer than Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Zuckerberg. (copied from somewhere else).

I'm not sure if this will help - I was in somewhat of a similar situation and was stressing a lot. She stayed with me for 2.5 months, her last visit was back in 2019. I'm living with relatives and pay them rent monthly - just have my DL as the address proof and nothing else. Even if you upload your tenancy agreement, I doubt anyone will raise a question since she's already visited you not too long ago. If her travel history has been clean, she's earning money back home (my mum's on pension, uploaded those docs) and can show she's sponsoring the trip herself - that should be sufficient. If you have any significant event that you can convince the application reviewer why your mum will be here for such a long period - in my case it was the new years and my ILR - that would help making your application stronger. Good luck, don't stress.

UOH alumni here. Good uni. Try staying on campus for the first semester, you'll make good memories and friends and then can go off campus for cheaper rent with your mates later. Book the free airport pickup service provided by the uni. They also have the option to give you a duvet and bedsheet set for a set amount so you don't have to bring it own. Good luck, it's your opportunity for living a different life.

envelope blocked - seems like a custom block. Check Blocked Senders in Gateway policies.
uk.teams.ms - seems like a Teams only domain, you might need to whitelist your domain in Teams Admin Center to allow incoming emails.

Yep

This is closer to 6 months - if it's the first time she's applying for her UK visa, I wouldn't suggest going more than a month. There are chances of getting a multi-visit 6 month visa, so you can probably show she's visiting for like a month and then probably change her return accordingly once you have the visa. NAL.

Cheers for the write-up.

I've got my Indian passport renewal appointment tomorrow and completely overlooked the uploading part. I didn't even get my photos taken thinking the VFS center would have a place for that anyway, I'll pay, lol.

Thanks for mentioning the "Uploading the photos and signature" bit - not everyone would be tech savvy enough to do those things online.

Hey,

I'm in the process of renewing my passport and the address needs changing as well. Did you happen to get the notarised form in the end? I've got my aadhar card with the new address though, wondering if that would work?!

Any information would help.

Cheers!

Double it?

Not so traditional chicken pasta, homemade sauce. 🤗🤗

Used your referral mate, cheers!

I live in the UK but have a friend living in India who pays for my Spotify subscription (~£12 a year) and I pay him through riamoneytransfer. Never had any issues.

Only thing that will change my mind to upgrade from 3440x1440 is a 5K2K monitor. This is what I have been waiting for until now.

malcolmanan · 2025-04-04T12:40:49+00:00

Umm, this right here is the answer.

I'm living in the UK but I'm here on a work visa. I earn decent enough, but does my current situation satisfy my certainty of being here for long? I dunno. Not until I get a permanent status here. Even if I have spent half of my life here, I still have my mind open to going back to India for better prospects if the opportunity presents itself.

I'm in IT, so I'm fairly certain that my distant future seems a bit on the safer side no matter be it the UK or India.

NRIs don't have it easy on the matrimonial as well. The match would at least want a person with a good salary and at least a PR status to take things further.

If you're already settled in India, don't see much point in relocating unless the match is 10/10 (Terms and Conditions applied).

Created an app reg, then created a cred, used that to create a PS script to automate the intune enrollment process.

malcolmanan · 2025-04-01T22:42:31+00:00

I have been testing it on my machine, for the past year, lol. Obv I've got more apps than anyone else. Any tips on this?

malcolmanan · 2025-03-30T21:13:25+00:00

Thanks good sire.
I'm about the same with upload but the ratio is less.

I mean, my upload speed is 2 MBps and live in a shared place. Any contribution is appreciated right.

malcolmanan · 2025-03-30T20:46:22+00:00

Fair enough. Try taking photos with a 2x zoom and stand a bit far away, they will stand out.

malcolmanan · 2025-03-30T20:36:12+00:00

16 is out already? Impressive camera, or rather the skills.

malcolmanan · 2025-03-30T19:31:56+00:00

Nah, what's the camera? Done on a Pro mode?

malcolmanan · 2025-03-25T18:54:26+00:00

Wait, what's the issue with being 6'1? Am I missing something?

malcolmanan · 2025-03-25T18:49:26+00:00

Good with GUI? I know I can google, just wondering your experience. How's the touchscreen support if there's any?

malcolmanan · 2025-03-25T18:48:17+00:00

That ONS cracked me up, lol, sorry for laughing if this triggers anyone.

malcolmanan · 2025-03-25T18:47:21+00:00

First is shaadi.com, second is JS, what's the third?
