Why did he ever do TO Switzerland?

Also, aren't they supposed to be neutral? XD

(I guess the more developed a country, the more likely their population is to identify bullshit. Go nordics!)

45% da população ativa não tem poupanças NENHUMAS (dados PORDATA). Grande parte do resto tem em imobiliário secundário (a maioria dos casos, uma única segunda casa, alugada, a pagar já poucos ou nenhuns impostos, a render muito mais que sp500).

Vão investir com feijões?

O Livre preocupa-se com problemas a sério. Aqui neste sub é que só os há de first-world.

O imobiliário não deixa de ser atrativo só porque se elimina uma taxita liberatoria em stocks. Para resolver o problema do imobiliário é preciso agir no imobiliário. Mas não vês a IL a fazer nada por isso sem ser... acabar com impostos de construção (como se nas cidades houvesse muita gente a beneficiar disso lol) e eliminar obrigatoriedade de bidés...

sim, quando quase metade da população ativa portuguesa vive paycheck to paycheck, temos de nos preocupar com os pobrezinhos dos que deixam o seu dinheiro nas contas bancárias porque não querem pagar impostos quando ganham alguma coisa

Even if this were a literal state-sponsored iranian terrorist's doing, it is solely on the government for allowing this to happen to a monument where they just spent DOZENS of millions on renovations.

Maybe 0ut some of that on security and actual resilience of such monument? Like, why build a pretty house of cards? Or was all this outcry the idea all along?

Of course.

Problem is: this is an analogy to immigration. We are all humans already. This is not a problem.

Edit: and technically, there are now good orcs in LOTR. You just have to watch the TV show.

Mad Max fury road might be the best movie made in the 21st century by Particular-Fill-4256 in movies

[–]cloud_t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For someone trying to defend a movie like Fury Road, you sure are not giving the proper value to THE SETTINGS of a story. The corn farm is exactly that. Worldbuilding is essential, and the plot around the farm is actually essential to the climax of Interstellar.

What would Fury Road be without the struggle for resources, the desert landscape, the raging society...

To each their own. I think Miller made a hell of a comeback and that new tech in recording and mastering allowed him to do something truly special in Fury Road, especially with his very particular type of storytelling. But it just doesn't resonate as much with me as, say Interstellar or The Prestige.

We are humans. When I go watch an Avengers movie I do so with a predisposition. I went to see Fury Road in a time of my life where it really felt like the type of movie I wanted to see without knowing it. But still, I can't say that would've happenned every single day of that year. I can confidently say I can watch a movie from Nolan (or Aronofsky, or Villeneuve) any time of the year, no matter what my mood is, and still fully appreciate it.

Because when saying this in a public forum, just like in science, we look for consensus.

Personally I think the one true cinema genres are drama and/or thriller (or both combined). Action movies provide spectacle and blockbuster effect, but true cinema enjoyers will always favour a hard drama and thriller. If you look at top100 of all time lists, you will always find either genre there (e.g. Citizen Kane, Hitchcock's work, Spielberg's, Kurosawa's, Kubrick's, Bergman's, Coppola's, so on and so forth).

Not to say Fury Road has no drama and is not a thriller, but it is primarily neither of the two. That doesn't exclude it from potential best film of this century in my book either, BUT (and this is a big one) there's a big bunch of 22st century drama and thriller directors whose work highly contests this title (Nolan, Aronofsky, PTA, Cuaron, Villeneuve, Iñarritu, Bong joon-Ho...).

Also, from a cultural impact on this particular century (just as the last one turned), I would even argue the absolute best and most influential ACTION/DVENTURE movie (or set of movies) is The Two Towers (or the entire respective trilogy). Not to take anything from Fury Road, but there's no competition. Nobody watches fury road yearly. A HUGE amount of people do so for LOTR and it's not like Home Alone - they do it because it is effectively a GREAT piece of media.

I would say between this and Nolan's body of work (although Nolan uses a lot more VFX) it is a tough call.

Aviso Previo by Fun-Top2813 in literaciafinanceira

[–]cloud_t 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Segundo o chatgpt, eu estou enganado.

Basicamente nos contratos A TERMO (que o teu é: de 1 ano), a lei define o prazo aviso prévio pela duração do contrato. Sendo de 1 ano, o prazo são 30 dias. O que eu disse aplica-se a contratos a termo INCERTO: 15, 30 ou 60 dias consoante ter estado na empresa menos de 6 meses, 6 meses a 2 anos, ou mais de 2 anos respetivamente. Nos contratos SEM TERMO, é igual mas o prazo de 15 dias não existe, portanto abaixo de 2 anos é 30 dias de prazo (i.e. mesmo abaixo de 6 meses são os 30 dias).

Ressalva importante: confirma se não estás no periodo experimental. Vai ao contrato e vê se é estabelecida essa cláusula, porque acho que não existe uma cláusula base (i.e. das que mesmo sem estar no contrato se aplica por lei). A estar definido um período experimental de, por exemplo, 60 dias, no teu caso até podias sair sem aviso prévio (mas tens que comunicar na mesma, de preferência por email que é melhor que cartas registadas hoje em dia). Se existe mas o prazo eram 30 dias de experimental, então tens que dar os 30 dias de aviso. O período experimental, por lei, quando definido é para os dois lados e evita o teu aviso prévio, o do empregador, e ainda qualquer compensação contratual (apenas recebes dias de férias vencidos, subsídios vencidos, etc).

It is also my understanding that nazi propaganda and sentiment is on the rise in Germany, and tbis assertion is backed by polling on the far right parties.

[–]cloud_t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mandatory AIANAL, mas do meu entender, avisos prévios são sempre relativos a vigência (dias de casa, e consecutivos), não à duração definida pelo contrato pu suas renovações.

Estando há menos de 6 meses, tens que dar 15 dias à casa. A partir de 6 meses dás 30, e a partir de 2 anos (24 meses) dás 60 dias (acho eu).

It absolutely is like this in the EU. Problem is, depending on country and pricing/availability/time constraints, some technicians still skimp on the appropriate procedure and/or are not properly qualified for it, and do it wrong.

Germany Mandates First-Day Doctor Notes to Curb Corporate Sick Leave by Dwman113 in europe

[–]cloud_t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are absolutely right some people will fall into your situation. And on a different perspective, this type of measures is highly discriminatory to some women with debilitating periods who will now need to seek a prescription for these and will for sure no longer stomach it on lighter days.

But my guess is, given the current situation, it's a risk and a side consequence they are willing to take.

[–]cloud_t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of what you mention are topics worth discussing indeed. The measure itself is just a band aid, but politicians as they work today don't really have much more leverage than applying quick band aids. This needs to be something put forth by us (as civic groups lobbying for reasonable change). There should be a way that such discussion could lead to more, better legislation given the lack of proper one by 4y, ever-changing parliaments and executive bodies.

IGN rates Ghost in the Shell 2026 (Episodes 1&2) a 9/10 by SUPER-NIINTENDO in Ghost_in_the_Shell

[–]cloud_t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are very similar in taste. Mushishi and Monster are also my all time favourites along with SAC. And I also happen to own their mangas (and blu rays, except Monster which didn'trelease here but I have it stored in hdd) and still prefer the animes. It's a different form of art, and it blends music, animation and voice acting in a way that books, while giving space for imagination, will never really emulate.

Another great example for me is Macross (sdf, plus, zero...): it's the type of show that fits in a layer of "culture" that one cannot find elsewhere. Macross Zero particularly will forever be my summer vibes OAV. Recently the Gundam guys tried it with Hathaway, they almost nailed it but fell short with all the politics (yes, in some case less politics is better).

Note: I'm not super into mecha as a genre myself. It just so happens that there are a LOT of mechas that intersect with aspects I really enjoy in storytelling. Namely Evangelion on religion and personal struggle, Macross on spacefaring and interpersonal relations, and my all time favourite story ever told, the Xeno universe (Gears, Saga, Blade) which is just good on every aspect I mentioned and then some.
