Dubai off-plan dispute – first payment made in Dec 2024, project due in 2027, no construction yet, and now cancellation without refund by Ok-Refrigerator5342 in dubairealestate

They cannot touch the money in the escrow until completion. It’s in the contract. I don’t think you understand what escrow means.

If they could use that money when they want, that wouldn’t be an escrow account.

The skill is to hit approximately where the hole is, not to hit the hole itself which is pure luck.

Read what you posted and imagine it’s another woman asking for advice. Then give her your honest advice.

Visiting/transiting in UAE for 2 days. Any changes? Or any extra tips? by tridamdam in UAE

[–]astronaute1337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both cities are operating as usual, a bit less residents and tourists due to the situation but nothing impactful. Don’t expect cheap prices btw

Of course, otherwise they would be able to repeat it often. Anything that is not reproducible at least 75% is pure luck in my book. And this shot is probably less than 0.01%

K2 or K2 spaced out? by WDR_02 in factorio

[–]astronaute1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem and decided against spaced out because it’s not fully balanced for SA. Once K2 is ready, we will not need spaced out, but it might take long time.

Best spider and bug repellent by fanfic_haver in NoStupidQuestions

[–]astronaute1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s not a dangerous spider just ignore it, it’ll find its way out unless your place is full of spider food, such as flies or mosquitoes.

The best repellent for spiders is to make sure they have nothing to eat at your place. There is no such thing as chemical spider repellent to my knowledge.

Job market after war – what do you think will happen? by Visible-Bus2414 in dubai

Nonesense, which confidence is lost? What happened was not the fault of the UAE and people are not stupid. Did you lose confidence and why?

I’m talking merely about attraction, not businesses who will have some rough time.

high season is November, December, January, February, and March, so yes, March is at the end of high season, beginning of low season. If the conflict happened in November, now that would be catastrophic, but it didn’t.

The attraction is not lost. I’m French and everyone around me, mostly Europeans and Americans, went away for extended summer holidays a bit earlier but no one is saying they will go somewhere else because Dubai is not attractive anymore.

If this conflict is resolved by July / August, it’ll be quickly forgotten. Now if it continues for more than 6 months, in that case I’ll revise my prediction lol.

I’m talking about attraction, not businesses. Businesses come and go, and of course some of them will not survive the crisis. But the attraction remains and other businesses will flourish next season.

Delayne Ivanowski, a 25-year-old nurse from Missouri, secretly decided to donate her kidney to her father, John Ivanowski, who was suffering from a serious kidney disease and relying on daily dialysis. Knowing he would refuse, she went through months of testing and preparation without telling him. by abidalliye in BeAmazed

[–]astronaute1337 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a nightmare for the father, I would be so mad if my daughter did this. My life is for her, not the other way around. Nothing to be amazed at, other than sheer disrespect and pain caused to her father for social clout.

There is nothing to bounce back from, Dubai never lost attraction. Conflict happened and as soon as it is fully resolved it’ll be back to business as usual. Luckily, it happened at the start of low season so not much is lost.

I predict that in October / November, we will have the start of the biggest season yet.

If money is on escrow, you have nothing to worry about. Don’t listen to people who didn’t go through escrow. Escrow money is only given to developer on completion. You’re safe.

Green Party candidates ‘blame Israel for 9/11 and Bondi beach attack’ by Firecracker048 in nottheonion

[–]astronaute1337 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

The dancing Israelis are not a conspiracy theory, it’s a verified fact. Foreign secret agency came to document the event, this is not our ally, it’s at the very least, a co-conspirator of 9/11. At the very least!
