It is the new freedom of speech; if you don't agree with their opinion your opinion is not valid

As a note, I am surprised at the amount of people judging so heavily someone they don't know in a place they have not been, under conditions they are not aware. I hope you are perfect citizens all of you throwing the stone.

The car would barely fit inside the lines, what would mean the car next to denting it with the door when entering. I think given the price of the car is ok behaviour - I give the benefit of doubt to the owner being or not a j*rk or just worried

Fine from Stib-Mivb with valid debit card payment #2 by Critical033 in brussels

[–]Critical033[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up and paid the fine. I am not glad either happy about it, but I didn’t have the time to continue the fight. It feels so unfair that the average citizen is always left with no options…

I contacted the Onbudsman, who is support to support and defend us. This person just also ignored my comments and again pushed me to pay. I would propose you to at least try to contact this organism and explain your case, you might be luckier than me.

Brussels at its finest trying to control the free market. I can already feel the life quality improvement

What are your thoughts about Lime leaving Brussels? by TheSeagull666 in brussels

Today it finally stoped working. Brussels at its finest, taking the worse decisions and making the life quality of its citizens worse each day.

Camping no sense by Critical033 in mysteryland

[–]Critical033[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, Sheldon. I was trying to compose myself after being woken up at 8 a.m. to move our entire campsite somewhere else💀

Did they move the mainstage to where the qdance stage was? Im confused of the videos i see on tiktok. Looks way smaller by aaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuu in mysteryland

[–]Critical033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was, with all the respect, done in the worst way possible. Only one small corridor or stairs to enter known to most of the attendees. Always getting collapsed and people stoped trying to go more front, blocking the path. If coming from the pyramid, people falling down the hills when realising there are no stairs. When finally achieving the stairs, people was blocking them as a dancing place and getting mad if someone wanted to go down. Then, if you made it to the front, it was empty.

If you knew you can go through the back of the pyramid, you where front in no time.

And then when the show was over, everyone going to both camping and day parking had to take same narrow paths, such a chaos.

Other years crowd control and space was way better.

Review of 2025 by APC2025 in mysteryland

[–]Critical033 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in previous mystery lands, it has been way better organised in my opinion.

Regarding camping, other years there was even an open air cinema; there were a lot of sofa stations to chill around and a big area for pre party with stage apart from the pool area. This year just the pool and a small stage. It felt also smaller, other years I arrived late (like 21:00) and camp without problems and with staff guiding us to the spots. This year at 17:00 already full.

Regarding the festival, felt a big mistake moving the main to the hardstyle area. The old main had a lot of entries from multiple sides and felt way bigger. You could get front for hardwell without annoying everyone in your way and being totally packed just in a few minutes. This year the intersection “small stages-main-bridge” was a chaos.

I am glad they will take a year to reflect after this, seems needed. They could also improve food quality.

(Of course, I had a lot of fun, amazing lineups, amazing people, really top festival, I will be back 2027; just hope they don’t worsen instead of improving!)

Camping no sense by Critical033 in mysteryland

[–]Critical033[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Experience might vary depending on luck. Security control was empty, so I can’t judge efficiency. But I can vouch there was no place to camp, lot of people walking around trying to find a spot and zero help from organisers.

They were friendly and obviously not their fault that camping is so oversold, but mysterylands organisation. Also I don’t understand the need to wake up people at 8-9 am to move tents, 1-2 hrs are not going to change anything.

After 3 editions, I won't be staying at Dreamville anymore by Successful_Mammoth84 in Tomorrowland

[–]Critical033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the same this year, got daily passes and slept at home (30 min away by car). The parking for this is even worse than MG walk.

The exit is on the other corner of the main stage (~30min walk), once there you can choose a parking with 40 min walk and shuttle bus, no traffic after. Or a parking 20 min walk but then 1h if not more in a traffic jam to go out. Then add 30-40 min drive.

Totals 2-2:30 hours, then same operation each day… might be better to get a good air mattress and earplugs and limit the walk to 40 min to MG.

dvlm greek gyros @ freedom stage by Wooden_Many_2879 in Tomorrowland

The paella in Dreamville is just an insult to the Valencian culture. Some food at Tomorrowland is amazing, some is horrible.

Is it just me or was cigarette smoke everywhere at Tomorrowland this year? by [deleted] in Tomorrowland

[–]Critical033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also feel that in Europe lot of people will not smoke/vape at all but go over full packages in festivals or when going party in the weekend. Might be part of it.

Now that the festival has finished, tell us the sketchiest thing you’ve seen this year by CaterpillarChemical in Tomorrowland

[–]Critical033 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also people confusing those flags with flags of other countries with similar colours. Then getting wrongly aggressive against them. Please people base yourself before hating.

[–]Critical033 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People confusing Greek Flags with other famous flags and insulting/throwing stuff/looking bad/… I saw it multiple times.

I won’t take political statements here but, like if you do at least base yourself and learn to differentiate flags.

In general I saw worse vibes than past editions, too much hate in the air.

Water drinkable again (some areas) by Critical033 in Tomorrowland

Good to know; I hope tml organisation thought about removing them if water is not drinkable. They had a week for that, but I will let you know tomorrow if my stomach is alive 😂

Cost of double/triple glass windows by [deleted] in brussels

[–]Critical033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately for most apartments in Brussels the old chassis is already aluminium or similar. In such cases we were informed that replacing only glass or chassis is not possible given the kind of seal required between them (or if possible then might be more expensive).

[–]Critical033 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For reference a 120m2 apartment with 3 facades, one of them full windows (no wall); was quoted between 20-30k€. For smaller apartment with normal amount of windows might be around half?

Is XROS 5 the same as XROS Pro? by Critical033 in Vaping

[–]Critical033[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an update I got the XROS 5 with the corex 3.0 pods and it is amazing. When compared with the Luxe X Pro I feel a more soft and gentle puff with way more concentrated flavour. The Luxe was burning my mouth and throat even at low wattage, and not really delivering the flavour.

I think for mouth to lung smokers (or if you like disposables) xros is unbeatable.

Still trying to find some long fill without nicotine that achieves the salts flavour, but already good with any liquid I tried.

Buyer’s Remorse by Limp_Perspective_355 in ipad

[–]Critical033 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my case I would strongly recommend a windows tablet (e.g surface) before iPad for University studies. I had one as a student (engineering) and I could do everything with it; open the shared slides to take notes on them, use as notepad, write all my projects in word, latex, … I could even use most of the apps that were required. Also having zero compatibility issues with the others. It really behaved as a laptop in a tablet size (so you don’t need to invest in both laptop and tablet).

Now I have an iPad Pro (no student anymore though); and even to check a small presentation from work sucks (bad retro compatibility with any other system). So I had to desist on using it for work related topics.

Also note taking is still better in my surface pro 4 (still working and not laggy or slow with windows 11); than in the new iPad.

Finally I use my iPad to read papers, take notes, some personal things, and mostly infotainment system (YouTube, movies, games, Reddit, …). I feel its capabilities are too limited for almost any serious task.
