Rant: The documents required to change my phone number and region is insane, no one else does this.

It's been a few years now I moved countries, i've changed all my other account phone numbers seamlessly, including the region of accounts/stores without requiring such documents.

All I need to do is change my phone number to my new one, it's literally the only account i have left that I need to change so I can get rid of my older number, yet I can't, it's forcing the country code for a new number and asking me to change account region so I can get the new country code for the number, and changing region is a whole customer support process that is asking unnecessary documents that I refuse to share.

I thought maybe I could cross my passport number but apparently even that isn't accepted. I don't have marriage certificates, legal name changes, divorce papers, and I haven't died... As for utility bills, they're not under my name...

No one else does this, why does it have to be this complicated...

Not asking for a solution but this deserves a rant.

Other known songs, such as Ձիաւորներ ենք շատ քաջ with snippets here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UVDBV6T70p8

They're 90's - early 2000's songs, of course they're going to be cringe :)

Speaking of which, why are many of these songs not found online?

They're all pal, maybe I'd mod/jailbreak it on the future. I read the wiki but still can't make my mind up.

Would appreciate an explanation on why parity check started reading only parity drives after a certain percentage of reading all drives in the array.

Nothing serious, I accidentally did an unclean shut down yesterday and unraid initiated a parity check, fair enough, it was around 5% done when i called it a day and it was reading from all array drives, I checked a few hours ago today it was around 40-45% something like that and i realized it's only reading from both parity drives.

Doesn't bother me at all, just curious what exactly is going on in the background process so it would make this change.

Is this simply because the parity drives are larger and data drives smaller? it's already done reading the data drives? I could swear it would take much longer to read these data drives before, but im not sure i trust my memory either.

Sorry if it's a dumb question, just got curious.

The government is converting 23HA of Jrvezh forest park into a commercial project for the Pan Armenian games.

>For the proper organization of the Pan-Armenian Games, a territory has been allocated by the decision of the Government of the Republic of Armenia for the construction of a public-cultural and sports village.

>The World Committee of the Pan-Armenian Games will be provided with a 23.3 ha plot of land in the “Jrvezh” forest park for the implementation of an investment program worth 20 billion 900 million AMD. The program will be implemented within 13 years after the entry into force of the agreement.

>During the Pan-Armenian Games (Winter and Summer Games), the sports village will serve as a place of residence for athletes. The World Committee of the Pan-Armenian Games will ensure the financing of the costs of maintaining the sports village. The complex will be used as a place for holding the Pan-Armenian Games, and outside the games, for various youth gatherings, Armenia-Diaspora multi-faceted events, organization of recreation and entertainment, and holding various programs.

>In the first stage, the World Committee of the Pan-Armenian Games will install eco-cottages, a cafeteria, and a medical service center. The above-mentioned structures do not imply major constructions. In the next stages, the construction of various sports platforms and gyms is planned. For each cottage, it will be necessary to level 110-120 square meters of land. The assembly of cottages is planned in non-forested areas.

>The territory was allocated without a tender, with the right to build, for a period of 50 years. The investment program plans to create about 1,240 new jobs, as well as plant about 20 thousand trees in the area.

>The decision is based on the fulfillment of the requirements of the RA Laws "On Physical Culture and Sports" and "On Children's and Youth Sports".

They're claiming the assembly of cottages is planned in none forested areas, but if anyone's been there, the entire place is forested, the areas with less trees are like that because of not taking care of them and erosion. That doesn't mean those are none forested areas, it means they're eroded and need reforestation works...

Even though it sounds like a great project and sports center, it is also going to serve residential purposes for athletes and cottages, there was a video on social media for the project and it seemed like 23HA of cement. Sure they're going to reforest the rest of the area, but come on, it's 23HA of commercial projects.

We have thousands of hectares of free and truly deserted lands, I don't understand why it had to be in the forest park in itself when we have empty, treeless fields next to it.

Since everyone is asking how long does telegram support take, here's another question, has anyone had any luck getting a response from telegram ever? how did it go?

I enabled and created passkeys on both my desktop and smartphone instances around a week ago for extra security, 2 days later i woke up with both of my instances logged out for whatever reason, now I can't log back in because it's sending an in app pin code instead of an sms, with no other option available other than QR (i'm not logged in anywhere else).

Contacted support but it seems everyone on reddit is saying they're not getting responses, now i'm curious if there's actually people who have gotten any luck.

My account is over 10 years old, I was one of the earlier adopters of telegram and I have my entire history since day one. It would be ridiculous to lose it like this.

Word of the Day: The differences between Դ, Թ, & Տ

This was amazing, she explains the differences between WA and EA dialects for these letters so perfectly, better than anyone else has tried to explain them. Definitely deserves a watch.

Hopefully EA speakers now understand why WA have a hard time distinguishing certain letters, and WA speakers understand why it's difficult to understand EA speakers at first even if they speak the same words.

Honestly, as a WA speaker myself, I still am not able to distinguish the aspirations even after years of living in Armenia, it's easier to learn a new language than my ears picking up these differences.

Watch the other ones too, all videos explain the dialectal differences for each letter.

Is there a way to make "update password" suggestion port sensitive for self hosted things? It's so easy to mistakenly click update and lost a password

I am in the process of updating all my passwords and moving to Bitwarden, Here's what i'm experiencing.

I have a server at home, let's say it's on 10.0.0.111, my server runs multiple different docker images, each with its own port, say docker 1 10.0.0.111:2042, docker 2 10.0.0.1111:2056, etc

each of these links run different things that all require web log ins, during my migration process when i update the password of docker 1 10.0.0.111:2042 it is asking me if i want to update my password, but the problem is that it's trying to update server's log in, (10.0.0.111), or sometimes another link that shares the same ip but a different port.

It's so easy to accidentally click update and lose the randomly generated password for my server.

Is there a way to change the behavior of "update password" for Bitwarden?

How can I calculate the charging efficiency for Yuan up's 45.12kwh battery from the grid?

I'm trying to find out the charging price from 0 to 100, I couldn't fine efficiency information online so I relied on chatgpt and got these efficiency numbers

https://preview.redd.it/n4d0ub00ka8h1.png?width=761&format=png&auto=webp&s=dae483b0d5ad3f90112f2d4fe8398d54b0bae141

I am not sure how accurate this is because as far as I know batteries are less efficient the more they're charged, in the higher percentages as they fill up, there's also the question of the charging method efficiencies are correct by chatgpt.

Is this formula correct?

Charging Cost = (45.12 / Charging Efficiency) × Price per kWh

I am not trying to find out price per km or mile, just full charging price.

Thank you.
