Oh please be somewhere you can sue for racial discrimination... Please!!!!
Looks like a gov.uk site from the UI elements!
You're correct! It's probably https://www.gov.uk/apply-renew-passport - you can see the crown in the bottom left corner of the screenshot
Most Slovakian government sites also look like this.
Actually looks like Canadian government sites too
They're actually pretty good at fixing this sort of thing if it's reported. The whole digital gov thing has loads of money and the teams seem to be empowered to fix things.
Are these ui elements from the “incompletely loaded css” theme?
The page in this exact screenshot is pretty bad, but their design system is actually very well researched and implemented!
It’s very stripped down, but that makes sense considering where it is used (important information and forms).
Deliberately so, so it can be rendered on a device from decades ago, or a mobile with no signal
Does the UK government outsource that sort of service?
“get a different photo” seems dubious. Don’t see them going with that.
How is it discrimination? They have an option to continue and bypass the check. So quick to call foul
Yeah the "medical reason" they can't open their eyes more is due to being Asian
Or "if you think the reason for the result is not correct" could cover it.
just add googly eyes
That's what they call "anime."
As an Asian, I had similar issues when renewing my passport.
You gotta give the camera the bug eyes. Go full-on Kash Patel of you can.
Bonus points if it complains of poor lighting if you have dark skin.
Extra bonus points if it tells you your character is still locked and you need more xp.
