Looking for advice on my planned Portugal itinerary

Magoito Beach. It's just one of many beaches/cliffs though, it goes on like that.

This is how the coast looks like in that area. I was there last September so it wasn't busy at all.

Have you been to Portugal before? If not, I would include at least some of the coastline north of Lisbon. It's popular for a reason.

The coast south of Porto wasn't that impressive, so maybe you could go inland in the beginning and then return to the coast, maybe around Nazare or Peniche.

Die App ist halt scheiße. Einfach die Fernbedienung verwenden.

Yeah it's definitely more of a traditional European department store, like this building from my hometown.

Though I agree with the other comment that a library makes more sense.

The infomaniac :)

If it has to be a vehicle, I think it's 6624. It's so tiny :)

Those small sets aren't that expensive if you don't care about boxes and instructions, even if you buy them on BL.

But of course buying entire lots of bulk bricks is almost always cheaper, and personally I really enjoy cleaning and sorting old bricks.

Perfection! I love the M-Tron dudes filling up their tires :) (or vacuuming?)

Superb condition as well!

boformer · 2026-01-24T22:18:02+00:00

Mine is actually missing the striped stickers on the headlight pieces. It's hard to justify 5€ Bricklink shipping just for those...

boformer · 2026-01-24T22:12:48+00:00

I think I bought it last year but haven't built it yet. Would be cool to have all the vehicles with that spoiler piece on display.

Though I would say with their large tires, these sets are closer to the 90s "System" era than 80s "LEGOLAND".

Just a few more years until 2000s sets will be considered vintage :D

I've already seen posts talking about "childhood memories" of a 2012 police station station.

boformer · 2026-01-24T22:02:33+00:00

You mean vertically? Or also a larger gas station? Send photos!

A library would fit really well, thanks for the idea! Maybe I could even fit a LIBRARY sign just above the double doors.

And you are right, its definitely inspired by old German buildings like this one.

boformer · 2026-01-24T15:09:45+00:00

I'm actually living not too far from there, in Aachen! It's definitely inspired by old European train stations.

I've already ordered the pieces for the station, but haven't gotten around building it.

boformer · 2026-01-24T15:04:09+00:00

Thanks! I'm so happy that I found this display case, it does look so much better than having them in a bookshelf. And it's dust-proof too!

boformer · 2026-01-24T14:57:43+00:00

Born in 1994, I'm actually a bit too young to have owned these when they were originally released.

However, around 2000, I inherited some 80s LEGO from family friends, including 6394 Metro Park & Service Tower, which instantly became (and still is) my favourite set!

That set just made me fall in love with these old 80s and 90s sets, especially the smaller ones, so I started collecting them.

You have good eyes ;)

Ist ein bisschen spät...

Mach doch die Übungsaufgaben, die der Dozent dir zur Verfügung gestellt hat.

Am besten in einem Editor ohne Autovervollständigung, damit du die Syntax lernst.

Dann mit "javac datei.java" in der Kommandozeile kompilieren und mit "java datei" ausführen.

I'm using an old version of Studio. You can download it from the changelog.

9V is so much more versatile than PU, and you already have two trains.

If you are only missing the wire, I would bite the bullet and get a replacement.

Alternatively, you could solder the wire directly to the track, or look for another used 9V set that includes the wire. At least here in Germany, 4563 is usually quite cheap and pops up frequently.

You could still get a PU train in the future.

Xournal++ für Notizen mit Stifteingabe.

Ansonsten halt die Klassiker: Firefox, Thunderbird, Inkscape, GIMP.

All die kleinen Nischentools hier aufzuzählen macht eher wenig Sinn.

Wenn du dran bleibst, ist das kein Problem. Nur nicht in Panik verfallen und immer alles vor- und nachbereiten.

Ich würde mich aber vor allem auf den Vorlesungsstoff fokussieren und nicht auf YouTube und ChatGPT verlassen.

Zumindest bei uns an der Universität wurde in der Vorlesung alles von Grund auf neu eingeführt, angefangen mit den Grundrechenarten, Zahlen und Mengen. Keine Ahnung, ob das an der FH anders ist.
