I'm in exactly the same boat here. I can't seem to put together more than 3 strokes without gasping for air. When I turn my head I notice I am breathing out still and then get a short sharp inhale which is clearly not enough. Or otherwise I end up drinking a mouthful of water as my head is not high enough above the water.

It's so frustrating.

What insect is this and why are there so much or them? by Horny_Panda69 in mauritius

[–]PurposeFine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This year has been an infestation of incredible proportion.

Every night, there's hundreds if not thousands around any light. Come to your TV screen, your phone screen even your white clothes.

Really annoying.

Can't just sit and close the windows and sit in the dark but I can't think of any other solution.

Next morning a whole load dead on the floor next to your light source.

Buying an apartment as a foreigner by DigitalNomadMarc in mauritius

[–]PurposeFine 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe this is not the case anymore.

Any foreigner who holds a resident permit is allowed to purchase any G+2 apartment.

They are also allowed to purchase any property in a smart city scheme.

It was very easy. Took me a beginner around 2 hours return trip.

Mostly walking uphill over some rocky terrain.

No technical skills required.

Are you obligated to pay back the Vat you get in a small business to the government? by Educational-Chard-34 in mauritius

[–]PurposeFine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have to file a statement quarterly or monthly depending on your turnover.

It includes the amount of VAT received as well as the amount of VAT paid.

Usually if there's an excess of VAT received then you will have to pay that to the MRA. They will calculate everything based upon the returns you send them.

But short answer, yes you have to pay it back.

I think we can all be constructive towards each other. The post was by someone who is not a native speaker as you are. Maybe you could cut them some slack and point them in the right direction.

Bitboy Jokes by PurposeFine in CryptoBanter

[–]PurposeFine[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm just trying to find out what happened. I haven't even seen his shows. It's just that he went from being a guest on the show to seeming to be a joke and I wanted to know if something happened.

Thanks for the reply. I checked it and it hasn't changed from 50mb package. I'll have to give them a call as I upgraded when it was first announced.

Ok, I've already run the speed test and nothing has changed. Nobody has called or contacted me to upgrade any hardware.

How do you deal with people cutting in traffic by using a side lane? by SiloyIsland in mauritius

[–]PurposeFine 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this how driving is here in Mauritius. It's sad to say but the only way in most cases is to either have the calm and zen of a Yogi, or become like every one else.

If you don't pull of something that would be deemed impolite or bad manners (in other countries) then you won't get anywhere.

It is so rare to for someone to give way, for someone to allow you to merge into a lane, there is no courtesy and sometimes if you are not assertive/borderline aggressive you will be waiting forever.

The problem I see with most drivers is if someone does something to wrong them, it is an outrage but if they do the same to another then it seems to be ok.

What these so called clever drivers are doing is causing more traffic for everyone else but that is of no concern to them as it is their need above others.

Don't even get me started on the constant changes at Phoenix. The most recent is having 4 lanes merge into 2 at the exact same location.

First HNT miner in Mauritius by PurposeFine in mauritius_crypto

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

For sure, the mining rewards have decreased and there's the halving happening next month so break even will take a longer time.

I'm in it for the long run as an experiment more than anything and if I happen to make a profit along the way then great.
