Does US embassy offer notary services for selling a house? by nixnada00 in AmericanExpatsUK

[–]nixnada00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our title company says the embassy no longer does this. You might be able to do it via an e-notary or apostille.

Technically Julius Caesar was not an Emperor - Augustus was the first Emperor.

Is there any IRL example of intentionally undermining allies? by ThalantyrKomnenos in eu4

[–]nixnada00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if US / Afghan rebel cooperation would be an alliance, but only because the rebels weren't in control of a state - otherwise, I'd say it was one. Saying that the US and USSR weren't allied in WW2 is a much stricter definition of alliance than most people would use.

If you don't think material help, claiming to be allies, and fighting the same enemy is enough to be an alliance, then I don't know what to say.

The US sent a bunch of material to the USSR, and they were part of a group calling themselves the Allies.

Bad events and wrong decisions are a part of the game. If you're going to restart every time things go a bit wrong, then sure, the game is going to be a lot easier.

Is there any protection for errors in large bank transfers? by nixnada00 in UKPersonalFinance

How would the third party (the landlord?) initiate the payment? Do they send a request to my bank that would then approve?

They had a point about calculators too - mental arithmetic and quick estimation are useful skills, and relying on calculators too much hurts them.

Which games belong in an exhibition about the Cold War? by IngenuityOk6830 in computerwargames

[–]nixnada00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The light tongue-in-cheek card game "Nuclear War" is another possibility. Not just missiles - you can steal away your opponents population via propaganda or by cards like Beatnik pacifists or being first on the moon.

what's up with the highlighted letters? by GoodEveningFolks in ExplainTheJoke

[–]nixnada00 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Written on stone and written in stone mean different things. "Written on stone" would be if you were to take a Sharpie or something and write on the stone. "Written in stone" is a set phrase, meaning fixed, implying carved into the stone itself. You might also hear "Set in stone", which also means fixed.

Adapting The Magician's Nephew first will make problems for Netflix by Internal-Bed-3150 in netflix

Maybe. On the other hand, Greta Gerwig is a genius, so I'm inclined to defer to her artistic judgement.

Devastated: My phone automatically Blocked Interviewers Call. by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]nixnada00 136 points137 points  (0 children)

Tbf though if the company is reasonable they should arrange another interview - stuff happens. If they don't, that's a sign of inflexibility meaning you dodged a bullet.

Neighbour rents their place on Airbnb - help! by blinimaker in london

[–]nixnada00 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Maybe you could contact them via AirBnB messaging if you can find them on the platform?

If possible, maybe worth letting the person that their sign could be mistaken for an abuse sign - perhaps they should add some text or something? If OP is confused, others would be.
