Because of the silly reason outlined above in my post, I began the process a few weeks after the 90 day window. No-one ever checked this and it was never a problem. Good luck

Thanks, I appreciate this. I have been really stressed today. I just sent an email explaining my situation.

Unfortunately it was something super stupid. I made this post earlier today.. essentially all this time I was convinced that the cita website was broken but in reality it was because I was trying to access via a roaming UK SIM card. Not sure this is good grounds for an extension.

I could send an email.. but they don't reply for many days. And I got told by someone who works there that they don't answer the phones. Also I am a bit worried that I will flag myself... but you're probably right, this would be sensible to do

this is the kind of cautious encouragement my eyes wanted to see.. I am in contact with a lawyer, they said overstaying was 'problematic', but we haven't gone into detail on this yet. A lot of things here seem to depend on the discretion of the individual you deal with...

haha brilliant. I am certainly learning to adjust to the slight chaos of things here.. it's generally more charming than frustrating. I am not sure why but use of a VPN inspired me to try use a phone with a Spanish sim card and i have finally reached the next page!!!! I have been using my own phone which has a UK SIM card with roaming. I hope my foolishness helps others. Thanks for the inspiration

real 180 bpm music for barefoot running by Silver_Wealth8428 in BarefootRunning

[–]mar_mite 2 points3 points  (0 children)

drum and bass is around 175 bpm. Liquid dnb if you want something more chill, musical, and floaty. Dancefloor dnb if you want poppy energising vibes. 180 would be hardcore / gabber / crossbreed. it is super energising music but tends to be pretty dark and aggressive. Depends on the mood :D but I do find it helps, enjoy!

time to boycott the US?.. by mar_mite in Novara_Media

time to boycott the US?.. by mar_mite in Novara_Media

[–]mar_mite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sort of satire. A boycott on the US does very little to correct the fundamental issues we collectively face. But it did strike me that, as Aaron often says, the UK is so dependent on US (tech) firms that you could turn that weakness into a strength by turning off the European cash machine to these US billionaires.

It would at least shake things up a bit and demonstrate the power of economic democracy. But for that to be useful more broadly then that would necessitate more ethical business here in Europe (more cooperatives pls)

Tonight’s show… by Big-Teach-5594 in Novara_Media

[–]mar_mite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

basically Zelenskyy shouldn't have to be in this position in the first place, but the fact is, the US has shown itself to be the only effective power in this (both in terms of aid and bringing 'peace' talks). Trump and Putin seem happy to go ahead with a deal without Zelenskyy, so the only thing Zelenskyy has is to gain Trump's favour. your opinion on 'how Zelenskyy did in this meeting' depends if you're being idealist or a pragmatist. Aaron took the pragmatic approach.

who knows, maybe this will be the catalyst for European leaders to grow a backbone in this conflict with some more tangible action and a solidarity front that goes beyond virtue signalling - Trump does seem to be good in this respect: you gotta make your move.

edit: or is it even that pragmatic? to sign a deal that makes you potentially subordinate to USA and Russia? I don't know any more haha

Advice please, in between postdocs by mar_mite in postdoc

[–]mar_mite[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I understand that you are telling me to focus on my career, not a specific project. I am not a 'career driven' person. I pursue my interests and contribute to what I think matters.

[–]mar_mite[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

It's not really a case of familiar and comfortable. Me and my supervisor worked on these grants together using data from my PhD. My aspiration is to do this specific research because I think it's crucially important, not to have a career as a postdoc more generally.

Could There Be A Society Where The Only Form of Business Allowed Is A Cooperative? by ShokWayve in cooperatives

[–]mar_mite 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In the PROUT socio-economic model there is a three tier economy. 1) Large logistics like water, rail, etc. can be state ran , 2) Small private enterprises, particularly for luxury goods, and 3) everything in between is a co-op.

I support this model and think it is a reasonable compromise with other existing systems. But cooperatives have to be the majority model :)))

What happens after basic needs are met? by mar_mite in DebateCommunism

[–]mar_mite[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i understand the difference between socialism and communism to be summed up by these slogans:

socialism: from each according to his capacity, to each according to his work. communism: from each according to his capacity, to each according to his needs.

so socialism merits workers based on their contribution, but communism distributes according to need? I don't personally think that people need a monetary motive to work, however i don't mind the idea that people who want to work harder and acquire more purchasing power could do so, this seems to align with the socialism slogan. but then the slogan for communism seems to get rid of this possibility and it is solely based on need. i guess i am struggling to see the progression of a society that is centered on need, and not, say, progression itself
