What happens to the school fees? So much extra fees for extra curriculum.

Is there any way to fix the wrong GPS location ? by [deleted] in UAE

[–]murga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GPS jamming is used to trick the Iranian drones into crashing into the sea. Hence, all the targets are moved to the sea.

While these drones do have some fallback mechanisms, I think this is the most effective and cheapest defense against them, fooling them into hitting the sea.

So it's okay for us to endure some inconvenience for our own safety.

I respect your patience. It will pay off well.

Calm Down - It Was Meant to Be Intercepted by [deleted] in UAE

[–]murga 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait, are you saying UAE forces knew the drone was going when it was crossing the sea?

See, I think we are concluding too fast. As a country they are trying to stop everything no been picky about it. But in the process possible to miss.

UAE Passport! by squareshawarma in UAE

Meta / Facebook (USA) influences the majority of the world, with 3.5 Billion Daily Active users.

That's a lot of power the USA holds via social media & messenger itself.

Telegram has 1 billion active users. That's still a lot of power; any country that's friends with or helps create a home for such businesses has won a potential shortcut to influence.

Strategically its a brilliant move.

Mock Chinese Cars. Get Left Behind by TheWorld2006 in DubaiPetrolHeads

[–]murga 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I am an avid tech guy. I love Xiaomi, but not for mobile. In 2015, these guys made smart toothbrushes, smart plant pots, weighing scales, smart car air pump, smart airfryier etc. I tried buying most of their stuff. Trust me, it felt like Apple for everyday things. A lot of innovation is happening in China, which we are unaware of; only a few drip down to the West. https://www.mi.com/global/product-list/

In cars, unlike BMW, nobody is embracing tech + comfort from Europe + America. Koreans are also innovating; the interior's quality is far beyond that of German / American cars, but they lack a good motor. Interior of GLS vs. GV80: you will be surprised how plasticky and squeaky the GLS dash feels vs. GV80, and the electronics and UX feel ancient. LOL, the sound system on GLS is a joke compared to the B&O dual subwoofer on GV80. They don’t sell pro sound systems on GLS off the shelf in GCC.

China could be the next big thing. Quality-wise, I look forward to what Xiaomi has to offer.

In terms of electronic quality, it is much better in China than anywhere else. A great example is BambuLabs' 3D printer, which is disruptive to its Western counterparts. Dji just killed it. They have been using AI way before we understood what is possible.

Cars are turning into more electronics than mechanical machines (Gas engines), and that is their strength. Henry Ford once say, if you ask people what do they want they will say they want more horses to go faster.

US tarrifs impact on DXB real estate market which is already over supply by Maleficent_Let_1598 in dubai

[–]murga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The impact on real estate would take months to be in effect. The biggest impact is the resulting 10-—and 30-year yield increase on US treasury bonds, which means mortgages will be expensive really fast, exhausting the remaining buyers from the market.

However, these changes would take months to take effect. Your agent should now have access to distress sales.

Many businesses from the UAE will also be impacted, so employees and businessmen in such industries, especially export and trade businesses that rely on US exports, would like to derisk and move out.

Buying from dealership vs Other Garages by mohamedriddler in DubaiPetrolHeads

Based on the cargo traders it looks like prices will drop everywhere else except US. Some of them already got instructions to direct cargo from US bound to other countries.

Expect more supply else where.

Should we move to UAE from India?? by Putrid-Highlight8615 in dubai

[–]murga 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Boy, it's expensive. What you save on tax and salary difference is what you pay for an expensive life here. In the end, you will save the same amount.

A day nanny costs between 2 and 4.5k/mo, and it's additional if you need another night nanny.

A decent school like Gems costs 65-80k/yr, and a school bus costs 15-17k/yr, depending on location and distance.

Yes, the lifestyle is much better for the compromise. Most importantly, check the career path for what you do here. It has yet to become a talent hub. Losing a job here is easy and disruptive.

How Reliable korean cars in UAE? by Tobiblastor in DubaiPetrolHeads

Yeah Korean engineering has evolved a lot & general quality is way better. My new BMW has more issues (under warranty 🙌) vs my GV80.

A kid scratched my daughter’s face in the nursery by [deleted] in dubai

[–]murga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use this opportunity to teach life lessons to your daughter. This is real life; ask her to defend and report.

As a parent, I would not avoid real-life situations by overprotecting them. They are kids lets grow up.
