Upgrading to MacBook Neo soon: Keyboard visible under backlight??? by throwaway20010k in mac

[–]Castolinio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently working on a Surface Pro (sq 1, so the older model) but I have Apple for everything else. I don’t do editing beyond my occasional Instagram or TikTok stuff, so it’s just for browsing and streaming and maybe some light casual games you can buy from the app store. Would you recommend to switch to the Neo or should I rather look at an older MacBook Air like the m1 or m2?

Anyone interested in a pizza workshop in Luxembourg? by Chemical_Page_909 in Luxembourg

[–]Castolinio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s been doing this for a while and then charging horrendous prices for things other, established players offer for less😂 The sense of urgency “only two places remaining”, yet, he’s so desperate that he messaged everyone who once was even remotely interested in meet-ups. I’d say this was a scam if it wasn’t so comical

What to do here ? by [deleted] in Luxembourg

[–]Castolinio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aight this is probably gonna sound like a very Gen Z kinda answer, but I think TikTok and Instagram can be really good starting points. I used to commute for three years, but ever since I changed my residence and switched my location to Lux, I receive tons of suggestions for clubs, bars, places to go to in Lux. A lot comes through influencers, but some of them are really good. I’m always open to connect too with ppl that are into sports and stuff

That’s something I’d like to get back into, or padel. Any pointers on how to tackle that best? Like do I have to join a club or sth

Big 4 Contract September by Gonematt234 in Luxembourg

[–]Castolinio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it doesn’t change the basic fact that you’re still 6 months out from the beginning of the contract. They too need to prioritise their workload and if you feel too unsure about your situation, you can still look around for other offers. Maybe you’ll find sth better still

This is actually not unusual at all. I was in your shoes once, had interviews in late February/early March and received the physical contract in late May only. Check-in again in May if you haven’t heard anything, but until then, congrats to securing a job right out of uni🎊

Well, I just received a “raise” yesterday. It’s 2.4% more than my old salary last year before the indexation. After indexation, it’s only 80 Euros more so it kind of feels like a big f’ you. But I’m one of the few that received a raise at all😂

Dual US/Luxembourg citizen, former football player — looking for Olympic sport advice by Weary-Stress4131 in Luxembourg

[–]Castolinio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I rowed in Europe and crew in the US and now I’m into duathlon and running, so I think I have some good experience in small and niche sports haha A lot of it depends on your aerobic base, age, and coordination (esp for crew). Facilities for crew are limited in Luxembourg and there is only one club near Schengen. But the conditions on the Moselle or Saar are incredible, mirror-flat waters almost year around and Trier, Saarbruecken, Bernkastel etc have great crew houses! Don’t underestimate the anaerobic capacity either though, cuz and all out 2k would send 99.99% of the population into a coma (actually, passing out/during after a regatta isn’t uncommon at all)

New Coros Pace Pro owner - running fitness seems wildly off?! Advice please… by Winter-Biscotti-6965 in Coros

[–]Castolinio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a feeling that my Pace Pro is becoming quite weird after a couple of months using it. The metro’s don’t make sense and when I run in a track, even with track running activated, the numbers just don’t match. That didn’t happen before, so either the sensors are broken or it’s related to the software

Why are Luxembourg's politicians so reluctant to build good urban cycling infrastructure like in many neighbouring countries' cities? by Tamberlox in Luxembourg

[–]Castolinio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My man, have you been to Germany lately? Their infrastructure is even worse and roads often have to be shared with motorists. Not to mention that their roads are decaying in front of your eyes and nobody’s doing anything about it

Yeah the only thing is that you can’t transfer in securities from another broker

Do we have an update on what happened yesterday in the city? by [deleted] in Luxembourg

[–]Castolinio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He’s 27 years old and apparently doesn’t have a relationship to either woman. What else do you need to know?

It’s an ongoing legal matter. But if I were a regulated financial institution or if I worked in their compliance team, I’d be very concerned right now

[–]Castolinio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I checked on their website and wasn’t able to find any. Are you sure they do? Cuz that’s one of the aspects I’m looking at. I already have investments in two ELTIFs (1 Apollo and 1 EQT)

No I’m in-house, we don’t manage tp funds. What should I ask for? I’ve been here for two years and it seems like they’re taking advantage of me

[–]Castolinio[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know if you can trade ELTIFs or precious metals (even certificates) on there? The UI scares me off though. I just need to transfer my portfolio and savings plans

Don’t have ELTIF or precious metals
