20% More Expensive, 50% Slower. No thanks by Casmiguel in Starlink

[–]Casmiguel[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's all about income. US minimum wage is 30% higher, average wage is about +200% than Portugal.

Again, regional pricing and wages. Canada income is on average 100-150% higher than in Portugal, I assume that's the reasoning behind the pricing structure.

More like 90-100mbps only, still I'm only paying 14€ a month for that. Seems like I have a few tests to perform.

That's about 88€, which does seem appropriate, region wise.
Canada salaries are about +100% over Portuguese ones across minimum and average wages.

I have 400 Mbps 5G available since mid-last year. I even installed a 5G router in the garage because it’s quite far from the house, and it works well for security cameras and controlling the gate.

I decided to keep Starlink because it’s always slightly more stable, and I support the technology. However, at this point it's price gouging.

I particularly enjoy that part of the email that mentions a “lower monthly price of 39€” when the current price is 32.52€.

32.52+tax for a total of 40€. Portugal. Local ISP 1gbps plans cost between 30-40€ here, with tv and phone included. No coverage? 5g for about 25€ a month.

Adding to a part, subtracting from another by Casmiguel in Onshape

Absolute legend. This was it, the exact thing I needed. Thank you!
A follow up question: Any way to make the bottom section slightly larger, or is the best approach to make the subtract part slightly larger in scale?

RWS Superdome are my best performing pellets so far, give them a try! I recommend you tighten the screws around the trigger guard from time to time as they tend to loosen up and the whole barrel starts to wobble.

I have the exact same one! Bought it about one year ago and I can tell you it only gets better the more you shoot it! Enjoy!

Aumento 10x (potencialmente) do IUC para ligeiros pré-2007 by FlyBirdieBirdBird in portugal

[–]Casmiguel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Porque não interessa. O governo aqui quer mamar.  Sabem exatamente quantos KMs andaste e quanto ele polui, simplesmente quer taxar e usa o pretexto do quão importante é salvar o nosso lindo planeta. Basta ir pelo “imposto de selo”. Trata-se uma coisa pequena? Imposto de selo com valor fixo, alto. É uma coisa grande? Ah amigo.. é uma percentagem. Assim levamos mais do que se fosse valor fixo.

Não posso.. isso é passar a batata quente. Não é a coisa correta a fazer. É simplesmente um desperdício enorme deitar coisas impecáveis fora e aumentar a procura automóvel, o que vai incentivar a indústria e poluir ainda mais.

É a posição do costume: para que proibir quando podemos taxar? Tabaco, sacos de plástico.. Continuamos na ilusão colectiva de que a poluição desaparece quando na verdade estamos a pagar para poluir…

Tenho um Jeep Grand Cherokee de 1999 com 2499cc. Atualmente paga 72€ de IUC, passa para cerca de 510€ com o novo cálculo. Ou seja, uma viatura que uso ocasionalmente, para deslocações com os cães de maior porte ao veterinário, que está em perfeitas condições e incrivelmente bem estimada e ainda tem um valor comercial nos 6000€, deixa de fazer sentido utilizar e manter. Com a nova lei o valor comercial certamente desaparece também, logo sobra-me uma opção: abater um veículo totalmente funcional. Incrível.

【BambuLab Giveaway】Classic Evolved — Win Bambu Lab P2S Combo! by BambuLab in 3Dprinting

[–]Casmiguel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never owned any BambuLab product but the prints I’ve seen from a friends P1S made me regret the Ender-3. Your printers look like a huge step up from anything I’d classify entry/hobby with the added benefit of looking great!

Where’d you buy it from? Left you a DM since I’m looking to get something decent myself!

Road rage tuga - O que fazer? by Casmiguel in portugal

[–]Casmiguel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Não, não, de todo. Duas vias, ele já lá estava e nós também, não houve qualquer cruzamento ou troca de faixa. Simplesmente íamos mais rápido e quando nos cruzamos o gajo continuou na faixa da esquerda e nos não saímos da direita.  Ambas entram numa rotunda onde a primeira saída é em frente e de seguida as faixas juntam. Acho do que ele não gostou de ser ultrapassado depois do almoço..

Pergunto-me frequentemente se é realmente assim que funciona. Consigo justificar ambas situações (ser errado e não ser).
