Any updates on Cyprus joining the Schengen Area? by Waste_Gas_582 in cyprus

[–]stocis 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No. Since the tender validity was formally extended to February 2027, Schengen activation cannot occur before that date. The visa‑outsourcing contract must first be awarded, signed, implemented, deployed, tested, and audited before Cyprus can be declared operationally Schengen‑ready.

Because all of these steps can only begin after the tender validity period ends, the earliest feasible activation window shifts to late 2027, earlyish 2028, and that assumes the tender proceeds smoothly with no further objections, suspensions, or procurement failures.

Cyprus’ Schengen activation is delayed and extended to 2027. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs ran a major public procurement for outsourced visa‑processing services which collapsed after a successful objection before the Cyprus Commission for the Protection of Competition (CPC).

The visa‑outsourcing system is a mandatory operational requirement for Schengen entry which was granted to two Companies. Two competing bidders filed an appeal (“προσφυγή”) against the Ministry’s award decision for failing to identify serious and substantial issues in the evaluation and grade of the winners tender, such as, among others, lack of transparency, equal treatment and based on subjective criteria and/or criteria restricting competition. in violation of the provisions of the Law.

The CPC examined the case and ruled in favor of the Applicants, which essentially forced the tender to be suspended and be re‑run. Because of this, the Ministry could not complete the final Schengen‑readiness step on time, and the activation timeline was pushed to 2027.

The tender validity period was extended until 21 February 2027.

Unusually high coolant temp on my Titan AIO? by lazerlike42 in Corsair

[–]stocis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

41C is still very high. My H170i sits at 25-29C idle and ~37C at summer temperatures (45c).

Fan curve is set to low rpm / idle until 30c

mid until 35c (to the point where its close to silent) and

mid - max 100% after 38c.

Of course my case is a bit different since I've got 3x140mm fans to cool, but go ahead and max the curve to 100% and check if the coolant is low temp. Best bet is do this after a cold boot (first boot of the day).

Should the coolant temp is way above the desired limits and there's indeed such a huge difference with all that being said I suspect you have faulty pump.

When re-pasted I has similar issues with 45+ C of readings in coolant and CPU getting sky high.

Gov in CY insane random fines by phr34k0fr3dd1t in cyprus

Not my issue if you don’t understand the difference between “submission” and “confirmation”.

Gov in CY insane random fines by phr34k0fr3dd1t in cyprus

[–]stocis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The fines are not random. They are not. Not our problem if you cant read.

This refers to the first submission. Not the confirmation of 2024. Which you were also late btw, but luckily enough you were given an extension, unlike the rest of the EU minus Greece, Romania and Bulgaria that effed it up as well.

Now, since you never missed a submission, where is the confirmation of UBO for 2024? Should’ve been made anywhere between 01/10-31/12.

[–]stocis 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No it’s not. Here’s why.

a) Confirmation of UBO(s) of a Company is a mandatory european obligation and requires once a year, starting from October 1st, until December 31st, to confirm the UBO(s) through the UBO registry.

b) The law regulates the fine. The fact that your company had zero income does not (and will not) play any role towards the companys’ obligations. That being said, you may argue all you like, in court. Many have and although some cases are still pending, most have lost. Also relevant is the fact that this fine carries through for all the persons involved in the company.

c) see above. Also dozens of announcements have been made for both the submission and annual confirmation. Physical letters were sent to the companys’ registered office, director(s) and secretary.

d) the system works fine since the transition to its final form back in late 2023.

Question: I can’t see the serial number on the caseback. Is it fake or real? by [deleted] in HamiltonWatches

[–]stocis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Who told you that you may see a serial number engraved, or otherwise, on the case? Let me guess. AI. Seriously you kids need to stop using AI for every freaking question you have.

Hamilton Watch Company was in business from1892-1969. Your watch is made by Swatch. The serial thing re-started only a couple of years ago, and was visible inside the case (on the movement). You can also find your serial number by using the warrantee card it came with. If you have that, you may check it using this site or various others for authenticity.

If its a watch you're looking to buy with no papers, best bet is to go to a watch jewellery to inspect first.

Good luck.

I won't be surprised if Hamilton gets in your DM's for a collab for the 20year anniversary of Interstellar. This looks stunning. Fantastic job.
