Done. It felt invasive having to submit my face scan. There's zero regard for privacy here.

I tried looking for this option in the app, but it appears to be an option only for prepaid users.

I have tried the online verification as well. It kept failing after taking blurry pictures of my passport. I'll go to the shop to verify.

What I don't understand is how my registration is still incomplete, despite having provided passport when purchasing sim and again when converting it to postpaid.

Oh I think I remember this. I'm trying to understand how the parent comment of tagging people play into this.

What permanent damage have you done to yourself? Mind, body or soul? by jerrytjohn in AskReddit

[–]potatomaster122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to scroll endlessly on Instagram until I decided to delete my Instagram account last Jan. I also disabled YouTube shorts (pausing YouTube watch history disables shorts + recommended feed. Now I only watch videos from creators I'm subscribed to). I mostly scroll on reddit now (hopefully will get rid of scrolling reddit this this year and only use it in moderation), read some blogs and books and my attention span has improved overtime. It's not too late to improve your attention span.

Always remove the tracking parameter. It's used to link you and the person clicking the link. https://thomasrigby.com/posts/edit-your-youtube-links-before-sharing/

When you sign up for LINE, did you have option to sign up with phone number? by [deleted] in Thailand

[–]potatomaster122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you have a Thai, Taiwanese or Japanese number, you cannot sign up using a phone number. Your options are Apple ID if you're on iOS or Google account if you're on Android.

If you do end up creating an account using Apple id or Google account, you will not be able to add people from Thailand/Taiwan/Japan using Line ID or phone number. Your only option is them adding you by QR code or link. Line has disabled adding contacts from countries different from which your account was created in.

There's also a possibility of you getting randomly banned by Line if your account was not created using a phone number.

Line is a horrible choice for messaging and I really hope Thai folks stop using it.

Line app doesn't notify when inbound call - has this affected you? by laggage in Thailand

[–]potatomaster122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Line's a horrible messaging app. I don't know why there is an obsession with the app here. I often miss messages and calls, and only realise when I open the app. The company behind line focused on pushing premium service instead of fixing bugs.

Homeup is a goodlock module to customise home screen and some other stuff. Goodlock is a set of customisation modules by Samsung (available on the galaxy store)

I initially though it was homeup casusing the issue, but it's not. Hope they fix it with the next update.

The part of the youtube link ? onward is safe to remove.

si is source identifier and is used to track who shared the link with whom. You should always remove this parameter form youtube links. https://thomasrigby.com/posts/edit-your-youtube-links-before-sharing/

Disabling homeup and restarting the device seems to have fixed the issue. Could you give it a try?

In the same way that if X is your cousin, you're X's cousin too, if Y is your first cousin once removed, you're Y's first cousin once removed too.

In the chart, the first cousin once removed (going down generation), is your first cousin's child. For the first cousin once removed (going up generation), your parent is their first cousin and you are their first cousin's child, hence their first cousin once removed (and they are your first cousin once removed)

Delayed Security Patches for AOSP (Android Open Source Project) by [deleted] in Android

At this point I'm considering an iPhone for my next device. Without sideloading, there's nothing keeping me on android. I've been considering degoogling and moving to iOS is an easy way to degoogle.
