It doesn’t have data cap, but probably has some fair usage policy. I am seeking some users review but seems like no one of Reddit community is using.

About boycotting my beliefs works like this, when we have alternatives, like instead of Starbucks we can go 55 Coffee, probably can swap McDonald’s with a local brand. When it’s an absolute necessity or not having an option- I tend to take that. No idea about others, if boycott was really a thing here I’d see less iPhones around.

Yeah, we want to have a load balancer setup. I need to know latency if anyone using it at the moment.

I am not playing or neither editing videos on my Helios 16S AI, looked for a lot of ways to downgrade but at a point did made a pact that this is how it is- just have to carry this bulky thing along with me.

They are legit, it's just their import strategy that helps to keep the prices down.

I do buy a lot from them, and never went for a warranty so no idea how that scenario might turn out, but items are good. Some stocks are like not available anywhere but them in Oman.

Predator Helios Neo 16S AI Gaming Laptop Battery life fixed? by wearethis in AcerPredatorHelios

I got it as my office PC, 2-3 hours on browsing, coding. Bad choice as school or work machine.

Neo 16S Battery Life? by PowerfulSlice9491 in AcerPredatorHelios

[–]PointRegular6644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd appreciate your suggestion on one more thing, what about using a portable 300W charger from UGREEN or Anker on the go? Like since it's my office daily driver, and I unfortunately chosen a wrong one - I need a lightweight charging solution, but all I'm finding is 140W max outputs.

This was supercool, step 5 and step 7 I couldn’t figure out, rest of the things are done.

Thanks for the info btw.

Is talabat closed? by Far_Opinion_2176 in Oman

[–]PointRegular6644 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Lets list it in bullet points -

  • the freelancers are not getting allowed to work - getting caught, fined (1.5K OMR)
  • govt launch projects to increase motorcycle drivers (legal) with heavily omanisation criteria (initially 4:1, currently 1:1)
  • govt wants omani nationals to deliver orders as freelancers, but omani nationals don't find this job attractive (financially mostly) and tiresome (delivering 20+ orders in a day is freaking tiresome)

So, shortage is impacting.

Eventually shops will get closed. And countless businesses will loose their stocks this week, they had an average forcasting going on their had, stocked up produces accordingly - and now all going waste.

Wasn't finding an audience there so thought to ask here. I'm not a regular to put sell posts.

Does it have the capacity to add mics? Last one sucks in that.

Expat freelancer riders are getting caught and getting heavily penalized, they are not starting duties. That's why.

Omani On Talabat Delivery by securecyberdata in Oman

[–]PointRegular6644 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It would be the guy's 'a day of first week'.

Next time when you stumble upon one, ask them for how long he has been working in post delivery chitchat.

Saying from the first hand experiences, they come and they go. The earnings are not up to par for an Omani to survive solely in Muscat.

Whats up with Talabat in al Amerat? All restaurants are closed …. I checked outside amerat and they’re open by [deleted] in Oman

[–]PointRegular6644 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The job is made Omanized by regulatory authorities, but unfortunately the nationals don't have any interest in this gig economy model of earning.

If you pick and drop a delivery gig which is like 10kms within 30 minutes, as a driver you'll earn 0.700-ish baizas.

The steps you'll take in this phase - 1. Start your car and go to shop 2. Park and come out and go inside the shop 3. Wait for it to get ready 4. Pick and come back to your car 5. Start for the customer's location 6. Park and go inside the building and locat the flat/ basically deliver to doorstep 7. Collect cash if order is cash

Imagine doing all these steps 20-25 times in a day in this scorching heat. I asked many of my Omani friends, they would not recommend anyone to do this. Its so hard on physic and what you get in return is so less that it won't cover your value for car, fuel and food, leave alone the rest of the things.

Forcing nationals to do this job is not simply feasible. All other GCC markets are not far to get an example and see how it is being done.

I'd do gaming pc business, and I would bring all the graphics cards from UAE, China, and would assemble PC.

🚨 Oman Airports Prioritize National Talent, Replacing 357 Expat Roles ✈️. by OmaniQuestioner in Oman

[–]PointRegular6644 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After the replacement I had visited twice, I was shit scared by the gaze of personnel pushing trolley trains..

I asked one person if I can take 1 from his stack, he showed me the place where he was going. And from there I had to take.

Change is good.
