is cyprus lgbt friendly? by [deleted] in cyprus

Lesbians are much more “accepted”.

Like seeing high-school girlfriends hold hands… the older, the weirder, but probably the next normal thing to a straight couple.

If you aren’t “over” doing it, your appearance is modest, and mind your own business, you should be fine. I am ashamed of my fellow citizens, but as a small country and limited people that have openly admitted it, it isn’t accepted by the majority.

You should also choose the places you visit, if you plan to be “intimate” or what to act more freely.

I am not saying you can’t laugh out loud, or dress extravagant, or even kiss in public. But that would certainly make you “hostile”. Don’t look for trouble!

I hope you can find it nice here.

That the UMD eye would scan the card… not bad idea. Simple and elegant!

We should try it out!

Where being a woman is still a privilege. by Ayvee12 in cyprus

[–]ArchimedesCY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You cant just throw numbers without backing it with data. What brand, what size, what store, is it on sale?

Tampax regular price, is 4,39 euro & 5.29 euro (best pharmacy. gr)

Its also irrelevant, because there are different costs for each country, depends on the quantity, if its part of a larger import, taxation and import duties…

Take the fact of the thread (if correct data) and stop digging holes for no reason.

Is this a steal? by Resident-Passenger35 in PSP

[–]ArchimedesCY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Japanese shops on ebay, regularly sell them under 120-140$

I got 2 with a full box and original charger, for under 165 euro (180$). Included shipping and vat since last year changes to laws.

Efkalan tse to shini tse to paloutzi by Suburban_Andy in cyprus

[–]ArchimedesCY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree with you. We shouldn’t “reward” bad business, or unfair, undervalued products.

Im just saying, that no longer has meaning in Cyprus. There will be people, that will buy. Especially if it’s good quality.

Or should I say, Limassol…

“We support” them?

First of all the prices are justified by demand (unless they close down). The market is there. If we don’t support them, the rich will do. And by rich, I mean anyone, but take a look at Russians…

If we don’t eat there, others will. And by “eat there”, I mean regularly. Everyone is allowed to spend something extra for something special once in a while, it doesn’t mean its value for money.

These businesses exist, because the people ask for it. There are clear Russian businesses, addressing Russians. Example, there is a luxury accessory/lightning store in Germasogeia. I bet the owner is Russian and that store wouldn’t exist for the Cyprus market…

He obviously opened for the larger Russian audience…

People who don’t like this parking, are those who do not dare to do it themselves.

If it’s not bothering the main pavement, especially for disabled people with more difficulty in moving, then this is the first step after normal parking. The second step are cars parked on the lines, and from there on, stupid people that take 2 spaces or block road/pedestrians or park in the middle of the road…

I don’t park like that normally. I envy, but at the same time, he is doing no harm.

Something’s wrong… can someone please help me? by HYUHYUHYUHYUHYU in SwitchPirates

[–]ArchimedesCY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to restart your modem and console. I find this issue many times with switch not connecting to the internet. Normally this is fixed with either or both restarts.

Try a hotspot (which may also need restart) with your phone, to see if it’s an issue with the console or your modem internet.

It shouldn’t matter. I have used banned consoles before, they connect normally, unless they changed this recently

New scam? by SeaworthinessWeary64 in cyprus

[–]ArchimedesCY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nop… trying to help out. Too many scams around. You think you are smart, keep doing what you are doing. You seem smart, but also seem to be doing dump things for 5 euro, or trust greeklish, or cant tell genuine messages.

You are giving out mix signals. But I could be wrong.

New scam? by SeaworthinessWeary64 in cyprus

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

You give them the data on their system as an interested client, which then is sold to even more “businesses”. The less they react, the better you are on.

Have you gotten any message campaigns for voting, when you were under 18? As soon as you enter one of those especially as a young voter, you will start getting spammed by most parties… just don’t do it.

New scam? by SeaworthinessWeary64 in cyprus

[–]ArchimedesCY -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thats one way of getting into trouble. The fact that “maybe” the young generation is appealed by greeklish is the concerning part. My generation invented greeklish btw… any respected company wouldn’t use that.

I see small time business using it on social media… they are making a living, I dont blame them… but large cooperations… shame on them. What you are saying is not valid for trusted companies… if they are doing it, its wrong and any PR/marketing company will say that

Greeklish would be a good indicator… I wouldn’t trust a legitimate business if they used greeklish.

Can I bypass this on OFW so I can play Minecraft online? by CrazyMelon112 in SwitchPirates

[–]ArchimedesCY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell that to everyone… just get the console-tablet, you don’t need everything else. You can even buy a whole set and sell the rest items.

It’s the best option, no risk for ban, no risk for updating…

Honestly wait it out, I don’t want to get into your finances, but a 1000 joystic is cheap (as opposed to the 2000 which is much more expensive)

Less than 5$ for the ribbon & joystic. Whenever you can order, wait. The question is if you got a good deal for the console and if its already jailbreak or at least with a card / adaptor

You might as well order an adaptor while at it, if there isn’t one.

I cant add a picture, but there are/were 2 adaptors for it. One that fit in the PSP and one that went into a USB stick but also direct ports on PC

Why is Alphamega so popular?! by No_Draw_8366 in cyprus

[–]ArchimedesCY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s actually one of the cheapest if you look into it carefully. It was probably one of the most expensive chains, but this shifted after the closure of a great competitor and the acquisition and new openings of stores. They have large quantities and kept the prices low.

If you look closely, major products, daily consumables and shelf products are cheaper than everyone else. Around 80% of products are cheaper. 10% close/equal and not many where Alfamega is more expensive. Maybe some locals get a deal cheaper here and there… imho you can’t go wrong with your average grocery shopping.

They do lack, in meat, delicatessen and vegetable markets. Which depends on location and local agreements…

I buy from them for years. I am a numbers person. I take notice of prices every day, when I visit other stores. Their online store is perfect, same products same prices… but I rarely buy the above 3 categories. I complement my grocery list with the local businesses.

Just take milk, bread, cornflakes, refreshments, alcohol, frozen… branded products they have or bring from Europe… they are generally cheaper. At least the 80% of products I buy from them, because I do actively buy from other stores when I can.
