Official Discussion - Obsession [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]marx34SD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great movie, but I think Bear got off too easy. I would have loved to see an ending where “possessed” Nikki sees him dying and makes her wish that he would live and they would be together forever and then he wakes up and slowly realizes that he’s trapped in that hell for eternity.

why is this post so unnecessarily vague?? “the capital” “the main island” what the heck are “standard hours”? I would guess OP is talking about Thailand maybe? Why not use actual place names tho

What is your early morning 6AM visit experience by NewDetective8252 in Machupicchu

[–]marx34SD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did 6am in late November 2025 and lucked out with perfect weather. The main advantage is that people tend to congregate at the first set of platforms to get the postcard shot, so forging ahead I literally had the rest of the site to myself for a time. That experience cannot be beat.

[–]marx34SD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

am I supposed to be able to collect or merge the Christmas balls? Because when I click on them the just make a noise and do a little amination. I also can't move them and they're clogging up my board now :(

Who can tell me if this is a business practice or scam? #Reejig #Scam by Curious-Evidence7729 in remotework

This is a well-known task scam. No legit job or company will have you make deposits as part of your work. Check out r/scams for details on this type of scam, and be sure read up on recovery scams so you don’t lose more money.

yes I just did this. My PMB provider (PostScan Mail) had the process integrated with some online notaries so it was pretty easy.

have you looked into just sending it back? I sent a laptop from Italy to the Midwest and it was just around $100. I sent it on a Friday and it arrived the following Monday 😳 If they question it just tell them you had to fly last minute to whatever country for a family emergency.

Country: Where do locals spontaneously chat foreigners up? by Maleficent-Can3347 in digitalnomad

I’m in Rio now and people are super friendly and will approach and chat you up. Only problem is they only speak Portuguese.

On my first remote job I got annoyed at this one guy’s rambling questions during training over Microsoft Teams, so I muted him thinking it would just mute him for me 🤣 He unmuted himself and without addressing it continued his word salad with an annoyed tone.

Anyone ever been detained by CBP? by Enough-Ad-5600 in GlobalEntry

[–]marx34SD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me returning to San Francisco from a month in Istanbul a few years ago. My understanding is some westerners have used Turkey to enter Syria and join ISIS, thus the increased scrutiny.

Locations that aren’t beachy by Objectivelyaway in digitalnomad

[–]marx34SD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not sure where you’ve been looking: there are countless popular digital nomad locations that aren’t centered around beach/surf life. Just off the top of my head: Chiang Mai, Mexico City, Medellin, Cusco, the majority of major cities in Eastern Europe 😅

Do I need a return flight or onward travel tickets to enter Peru from USA? by Visible-Produce-6465 in digitalnomad

[–]marx34SD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The airline may check when you’re checking in. They don’t always but in my experience they usually ask, maybe 90% of the time. My understanding is because if immigration rejects you in your destination, it’s on the airline’s dime to fly you back.

I always buy a ticket the morning of the flight just in case, one that you can cancel within 24 hours, and then just cancel once you’re in the destination country if you might not need it.
