  1. I just completed this quiz. My Score 33/100 My Time 107 seconds  
  2. It would be nice to do everything online, but like I said: Difficult to do fingerprint and photo online. And they will never mail your passport to you. You'll have to pick it up personally with an ID. I have been bumming around third world countries for most of my professional life (40+ years), and appreciate the passport security my country have. And, let's face it, no matter what they say, Thailand is still a third world country. Not even post services works here, some mail never arrives, some takes months...
  3. Well, mine does. Perhaps the new set of fingerprints and photo is to compare to the previous ones and verify that I am who I claim to be.
  4. The greatest country in the world. SWEDEN!
  5. Hmmmm. Not very secure, IMO. While your fingerprints might not change, your photo will over 20 years or so. Personally, I spout a Walrus facial hair adornment since 25 years and don't recognize myself in my old passport pictures.
  6. The embassy have a machine that takes you picture and fingerprints, digitizes them and sends with the passport application to the passport manufacturer. How can yours be biometric? How do you do your fingerprints online? Just a photo is not biometric. Suppose most counties has not yet come to the hi-tech level of mine yet..... Should add that I had to do it for the past 3-4 renewals. 20 years total.
  7. My country requires me to apply in person, and pick it up in person. That's because all new passports contain a biometric chip that has your photo and fingerprints digitized. The embassy does the photo and fingerprints when you apply. How does you agent process that? Or does UK still issue non biometric passports? The only hassle was the travel to BKK to apply, and HuaHin to pick it up. But BKK trip is always fun, getting a few booze nights with my buddies there, and HH is good for shopping (according to Mrs), so no real hassle.
  8. If you really want to use MS Office, you could download MS Office 2021 from MS download site and use the not totally illegal activator script that was posted here some time ago. Think it was removed since, but still available if you know how to search. That's what I have done...
  9. More likely than not, she's told her family that she's dating a westerner, and they are putting pressure on her. 30K is a large amount. Must be many buffaloes in need of veterinary care. And maybe some brothers in jail too.... Me, I married a girl from the South. Much easier to communicate with, and much more straight forward, western style. And no buffaloes, but a big coconut plantation.
  10. So is capitalism, as practiced by #47! Just look at the markets. Up and down like a rollercoaster.
  11. Another post written by AI.... give it up people!!! Key sign: "Former President Donald Trump's"
  12. New MAGA slogan: We're gonna make America great! But if you can't pay, you can't stay!
  13. The megalomaniac POTUS has already stated that he "runs the world". In his infantile mind, he believed that he would just dictate to others what he wants and they will all kowtow to him and obey. Well, it's time to wake up #47 and smell the napalm!
  14. Definitely agree on Andor S02. Especially E01-E06. Slow, confusing, quick jumps between the scenes, and little or no connection to the rest of the story. Just wasted one episode on a stupid wedding with Bollywood choreographed dancing routine. Another on some forest wannabe rebels infighting, that never appear again. And, of course, they just stole some story from the Rebel Moon, cheap!!!! I blame it all on the director, Ariel Kleiman (he's a man actually). Must be a good friend of KK. While S01 was pretty good, IMO, S02 final episode was a bit of a cliffhanger. And we know there won't be S03.
  15. A Martini must never be shaken.... Bond was wrong, but he prefers vodka Martini anyways.
