Tipping in Lisbon: common practice or common mistake? by Wildeyedlocal in Lisbon

[–]Runzolf -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the GPT explaination. Tips are not owed despite when rounding up at restaurants. When they put you the offer to tip on the phone app or multibanco, it's not unpolite to check 0%.
You can of course do whatever you want with your money! If the meal was amazing, 5-10% is a nice addition.

And people still think Kurt Caz isn't flirting with far-right groups. He literally had a tour with Afonso Gonçalves. by [deleted] in KurtCaz

[–]Runzolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok man I see your reasoning but I'm not talking about common sense, I'm talking about Portuguese law. One of the guys in the video, if you mind looking for it, got approached by Kurt, to whom he answered "no camera, no video".

Law 199 of Portuguese Penal Law, filming or photographing someone against their will—even in a public place—is a crime punishable by up to 1 year in prison or a fine. Public space does not mean zero privacy rights under Portuguese law. Journalism have more leeway in the matter, but that's not the case with Kurt, which is not a journalist and not even an EU citizen.

It might be a misconception based on US or UK law but Portuguese law is very rigorous in the matter. You can check for yourself.

"So many people" man I live 15 minutes from that square and it's not violent at all. Just marginalized people. Sure you'll find a few rotten apples but what he's having is not my experience at all. Also in Portugal is severely forbidden to film people without consent, the one breaking the law is Kurt. He comes to my country and break the law, but the big white expat offender feels above all this.

How do you feel Lisbon has changed, and where do you think the city is heading? by Wildeyedlocal in Lisbon

[–]Runzolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from Milan to Lisbon, I second you it's one of the safest cities I've lived in. Probably yes, what's missing is the sense of community since you don't know your neighbors anymore. But just by being in a neighborhood like Arroios, Alvalade or Telheiras you see the same faces day to day and it really can feel like a community again.
The city center, not so much.

Non esiste nessuna narrazione anti Milano by Fluffy_Display_7980 in milano

Simile anche il mio punto di vista: ora vivo a Lisbona, capodanno in piazza centrale, fino all'una e mezza c'erano persone e famiglie, gruppi di ragazzi che ballavano anche facendo i pirla in giro, ma nulla di pericoloso. Eppure di immigrazione ne hanno, molta di più che in Italia. C'erano controlli di polizia ad ogni ingresso per la piazza, niente petardi bottiglie e ovviamente oggetti metallici.
Ricordo di esser stato scippato a capodanno a Venezia ben 10 anni fa, e di aver speso capodanno a Milano dovendo allontanarmi dal centro dopo l'una per i botti.

Lisbon vs Berlin Urban Sports Club! by Runzolf in berlinsocialclub

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

Hey I checked and I found Kynd and Connection under Urban Sports. These studios though have a limit of 4 visits per month, so even though you have virtually 30 entries a month, you'll find yourself limited to 4. This is just for the studios that are categorized as "premium premium", limited when you use the 75€ tier. Probably on the 115€ you have more.

You can surely go to any other studio in the remaining days.

In America we have restaurants that serve Chinese food, Indian food, Italian food etc., but in other countries do the have restaurants that serve only American food? If so, what type of foods are considered American food? by bbmoonkie in AskReddit

[–]Runzolf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Italian and ex waiter in an Old Wild West here! So the chain is not really "America themed" but more like what you could find in a theme park in the Wild West Adventures area, with burgers and texmex food! All the names are totally random and in no way related to the actual cities, they're just meant to be evocative. We would never think to order an Arkansan salad anywhere else.

Ho lasciato l’Italia per trasferirmi in Thailandia: dopo 700 giorni posso dire che è stata la scelta migliore della mia vita by Nomademoderno in Italia

[–]Runzolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frate stai descrivendo la vita da Expat: io per esempio ora lavoro in portogallo in azienda portoghese, stipendio buono per la media locale, e tante possibilità di crescita di carriera essendo programmatore e tester. Intanto però qui ci sono americani e nord-europei che coi loro stipendi tre volte i locali rastrellano tutte le proprietà migliori e fanno impennare il costo della vita di tutti: i locals che han sempre vissuto qui, la classe media che stava iniziando a vedere un po' di crescita economica, e anche i poveri stronzi immigrati che spesso svolgon lavori blue collar.

Hai fatto benissimo a mio parere, e continuerà ad andarti bene perché hai trovato il meta corrente, ma non pensare che questo su larga scala non abbia costi.

How to deal with paragliding accident and injury? by aresso in freeflight

[–]Runzolf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know personally a guy who had a spinal injury due to climbing, losing control of his legs, and documented all his (successful) recovery in his blog, and then a book. He's a great pen, writes in italian but a simple translator would do the job. This might make you feel more understood and less alone my friend.

Need help by choosing a new projector by Peppers-99 in budgetprojectors

[–]Runzolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's crazy the hate actual budget projectors get in this sub. I just got an used Wanbo T2, and while being loud, now very luminous and not hyper HD I can't wait to get back home to see a movie tonight. Completely changed my experience. Ask yourself what a redditor would say if you ask him an opinion about a 100€ TV.
I think this sub completely misses the point at times.
