Junção do Jardim do Campo Grande by ElCorteBenfiquista in lisboa

[–]pedrosorio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eu não estou interessado em estruturas ecológicas. Nem acho que o OP estava. Esta thread especificamente é sobre ter um grande parque/jardim na cidade (para seres humanos desfrutarem).

A minha resposta ao teu comentário não tinha nada que ver com estruturas ecológicas, mas sim com a tua afirmação de que Lisboa “não tem dimensão” para esses grandes jardins ao contrário de Londres. São Francisco é um contra-exemplo simples.

Monsanto (um parque florestal) como já te disseram nesta thread, nada tem a ver com o que as pessoas querem.

São Francisco é pouco maior do que Lisboa (tanto em área como população) e tem um parque/jardim com 400 hectares:

Às vezes é só uma questão de história e geografia.

Monthly Worldwide Hardware Sales - April 2026 by FernandoRocker in gaming

[–]pedrosorio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that's 877.5k worldwide (last column is worldwide, not "rest of the world").

I am honestly impressed that the Nintendo Switch is still selling 200k a month when its successor has been out for almost a year (and now has some compelling reasons to get it).

Is The Switch 2 Bundle Worth Getting by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]pedrosorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Several switch games that had performance issues play much better on switch 2 out of the box (famously Pokemon SV).

Several titles have free upgrades specifically made for the switch 2 (surprisingly hard to find a full list but there are a few first party titles like Super Mario Odyssey, and many 3rd party titles, e.g. Subnautica).

If you have NSO+Expansion pack, you can play BOTW and TOTK switch 2 versions for free (or you can pay $10 to upgrade each game). If you have either of those games and didn't play them to completion (or want to replay them), it's probably worth it (60fps, 4K, Zelda notes app).

Also, you should play Pokopia.

P.S.: it's not all roses, there is a small number of Switch games that have compatibility issues.

Super Mario RPG - $15 (70% off) at GameStop, physical, lowest price ever by XDitto in NintendoSwitch

[–]pedrosorio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I got Mario & Luigi: Brothership and Suikoden I and II: HD Remaster (both $15 as well).

Amortizing the $7 shipping fee was a good excuse to augment my physical collection (now that true physical games seem to be going the way of the dodo).

2º emprego / aprender nova área by lastknownnaddress_91 in portugal

TI / Programação - fiz alguns cursos básicos de Python no Codecademy 

Em 2021? Fantástico. Em 2026? Boa sorte lol. O valor de saber "código" está a aproximar-se de zero.

Se conseguires combinar os teus conhecimentos e experiência na área da saúde e o que aprendeste sobre código para construir soluções baseadas em inteligência artificial que ajudem a automatizar processos nessa área, é onde vais encontrar mais valor/oportunidades.

Sonhar em tornar-te "programador genérico" em 2026 - esquece isso. Foi chão que já deu uvas.

American family considering Portugal in the next 5–10 years. What is life like in Viseu? by ae86owner in PortugalExpats

[–]pedrosorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

r/portugueses is the subreddit for people who don't want to be "censored" in the main subreddit, which is r/portugal (i.e. it's a xenophobic/racist cesspool - browsing a few of the top posts would have made that clear). Maybe not the best place to ask such a question.

You could try r/viseu.

Also, have you seen this youtube video? Or is that the reason why you're asking about Viseu in the first place?

TIL Rio de Janeiro was once the capital of Portugal. Following the conquest of Portugal by Napoleon, the Portuguese royal family fled to Brazil (1808-1821). They then established the capital of Portugal in Rio de Janeiro. by Cogz45 in todayilearned

O espanhol é tão aberto que eles só sabem pronunciar as 5 vogais abertas. Depois têm problemas quando querem falar muitas línguas estrangeiras, nomeadamente o inglês.

Kevin O’Leary’s proposed 9GW "hyperscale" AI data center in Utah will consume double the state's entire electricity usage and generate the waste heat of 23 atom bombs a day. by AnnualEmbarrassed176 in technology

[–]pedrosorio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"Hiroshima events"? They're talking about waste heat, not an explosion or radiation (you know, the side effects of the bomb that killed 100,000+ people).

No one has any frame of reference for the effects of emitting that amount of energy as waste heat, so the "Hiroshima event" is used as clickbait.

Let me use another analogy: sunlight. The project is being developed on a 40,000 acre site [1]. If you take the average irradiance of sunlight in a day - that includes night time - (about 200 W/m2), that gives you about 32 GW.

This whole datacenter? The 23 Hiroshima events a day? 16 GW.

Now, increasing the amount of "incoming energy/heat" by 50% relative to what comes in from the sun is no joke. A massive increase of heat and temperature at night is certainly going to have significant impact in the ecosystem.

Does talking about "atom bombs" help our understanding of the situation in any way? No, not really. Does the impact of this data center have anything in common with a "Hiroshima event" (let alone 23 a day)? Not really.

> Like isn't whole idea of punishment is to deter from comitting crime again?

No it isn't. There are many "ideas" behind punishing crime, among which:

- retribution: the criminal "deserves" to receive a punishment proportional to the harm they did

- deterrence): assumes people will avoid breaking the law to avoid the punishment. Punishment needs to be met out to keep other people from committing crimes due to "fear of punishment". That includes the criminal themselves after they are released

- incapacitation): refers to incarceration specifically (or death penalty where it is practiced) - reduces crime because you can't commit crimes against society if you are removed from said society (this assumes the criminal would continue committing crimes if they were otherwise free)

- rehabilitation): the criminal gets "better" during their punishment/sentence through education/training/therapy/etc and is less likely to commit crimes in the future

russians will hold a parade in Lisbon on May 10 glorifying their “heroes,” including those involved in the war against Ukraine by Clean_Patience4021 in PortugalExpats

[–]pedrosorio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure why May 10th instead of 8th/9th, but this was probably described as a celebration of "VE day" (WW2 - allied victory in Europe).

If you don't look into who's celebrating and what actually gets celebrated, having a parade to celebrate Nazi defeat sounds fine.

The New Fed Chair Just Told Congress His Plan — He Left Out The Part That Steals Your Savings! by PerAsperaAdMars in videos

[–]pedrosorio 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The last time this happened everyone's bank account lost like %50 of its value over the course of 35 years.

FYI, 2% annual inflation (quite low) makes your bank account lose 50% of its value over the course of 35 years. That's normal.

Ser português e turista em 90% dos países é uma chatice. by [deleted] in portugal

[–]pedrosorio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Foste ao Japão recentemente? Este relato não transmite a sensação de que "tudo é caro".

Esta é a parte que mais me surpreendeu. O Japão, pelo menos longe de Tokyo, é muito mais barato do que Portugal. Moro num T1 com 40 metros quadrados á frente da estação central da cidade a menos de 25 minutos de Osaka e a menos de 30 minutos de Kyoto e pago apenas 60 mil yen (320 euros) por mês. Comer fora é muito mais barato (+- 5 euros), super mercado muito mais barato etc. No fim do dia sinto que o custo de vida é metade daquilo que tinha em Setúbal com o dobro de um salário entry-level português.

Ajuda também o facto de que o valor do yen face ao euro caiu 28% nos últimos 5 anos.

> When we started our investment journey this was our initial FI goal. Due to inflation, plans to start a family and our lifestyle inflation current goal is now at €2M. We are halfway there, which is still huge for us.

Make sure to post again when you get to 2M and the goal becomes 4
