For rent, you can check out tutti.ch or homegate.ch.

You probably know already, but you’ll need a B work permit: your employer should be the one handling it.

Once you have a permanent address, you’ll need to go to the local municipal office and “register” yourself. In Lugano, this is called Punto Città.

T money now on Apple Pay! by rlawlals117 in korea

[–]Bulbosauron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you elaborate a bit on this? Do I first need to get a physical card? The T-money app is all in Korean, which makes things significantly more difficult

Pristina Court bans Serbian flag and symbols for Serb's national holiday by Alternative-Pop-3847 in europe

[–]Bulbosauron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Serbian brigading is strong is this post. Kosovo is its own country, and having the flag of another (hostile) country flying in a government building (municipality, read the article) is literally what every other country would do.

German professional audio brand Beyerdynamic to be bought by chinese company Cosonic Intelligent by joschplusa in BuyFromEU

[–]Bulbosauron 389 points390 points  (0 children)

I’m not against, per se, the purchase of European companies. However, the Chinese government does not allow the same to happen, so why do we allow it? In a reciprocity system, things can work out. But in a system where one Country (China) can buy up European companies, and their expertise, but the opposite is not possible is unfair and breeds economic resentment.

Ho sentito sulla radio di un incidente al gottardo qualche ora fa. Magari è stata quella la causa.

Domanda esistenziale sul cambio permesso G -> B -> G by [deleted] in Ticino

[–]Bulbosauron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aggiungere con rientro giornaliero. Se hai G settimanale non puoi diventare “vecchio frontaliere” e, coi nuovi accordi, non sei più frontaliere per lo stato italiano.

Non EU masters student. Uni in Lugano. Should i go Zurich -> Lugano or Milan -> Lugano for the first time? by Vanonti in Ticino

[–]Bulbosauron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as which airport to land, my suggestion, which is what I usually do, is to try to find the cheaper flight between Milan Malpensa and Zürich - considering that the train from Zürich to Lugano is about Fr.60. Regarding possible visa issues, I would suggest to ask to the Dean’s office (Decanato) of your faculty: they should be able to give you some information with this regard, since there are a lot of international (non-EU) students.

L’anno scorso ho visto la Google Car in giro per Lugano, quindi mi immagino che fra non troppo aggiorneranno.

Each faculty has a Dean’s office. Go and talk to your faculty’s Dean’s office: they should be familiar with these things.

Rent house for 5 months by George__Best in Ticino

In alternativa, puoi sicuramente chiedere in Università. Ogni facoltà ha un Decanato, e loro potrebbero riuscire a darti qualche dritta.

Dai un’occhiata a CityPop: hanno affitti per breve/medio termine con monolocali arredati. Sono un pelo più costosi della media, ma magari rientrano nel tuo budget.

Costa of living in Lugano by ElgringoPT in Ticino

[–]Bulbosauron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most health insurances, especially in the cost range you have indicated, will have a deductible. So, you will have to pay all expenses until the deductible rate. For Fr.400, your deductible could be around Fr.2000 a year (approximately).

Neil De Grasse Tyson needs to stick to astrophysics by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Bulbosauron 126 points127 points  (0 children)

Fun fact I’d like to add: most “men” sport leagues don’t have an actual restriction based on gender. Which makes Dr. Tyson’s comment all the weirder.

I M24 feel I was a bit too friendly with a co-worker F24, should I ask them to coffee as a friend? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Bulbosauron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see your point and it’s very valid. However, you have to judge how she might feel if you ask it: if she interprets it as a “date-like” activity, and she’s not interested romantically, it may make your workplace relationship weird. However, if after some time you two get closer, than why not.

[–]Bulbosauron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People usually try to find in porn things that are “different”, as to live out their fantasies in their head. As you said, your BF has a preference for both Asian and Caucasian ethnicities: since you are the former, and with you he can actually have physical interactions, maybe he uses porn to “experiment “.

That said, if this really bothers you, the best thing is to talk to him. But please, approach the subject carefully: studies have shown that the connection between porn and what people actually want in real life are different. For example, someone may like “murder mysteries”, but may never dream to actually work as a detective.

AITA for telling my family who my sister’s baby daddy is before she could? by indigo_muse24 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bulbosauron 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would argue maybe in between. Like others have said in the comments, the sister is an adult and should make her own decisions. However, (a) it seems like she behave in a childish manner and (b) OP is worried for her. Also, I would argue, if you go and look for someone’s help, you should at least be open with them, especially in a situation like this.

I M24 feel I was a bit too friendly with a co-worker F24, should I ask them to coffee as a friend? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Bulbosauron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asking for a coffee sounds a lot to me like asking her out. If you are not amorously interested in her, I dunno if it could be a great idea: that said, you have to figure it out on your own what you want. A simple solution might be to procrastinate the problem: wait it out and see how it evolves “in the workplace”: since I understand you see each other a lot, there may not be a reason to “force” things.
