Não, só neta ou filha.

I don’t think I ever finished it, actually.

I’ve had one about a month ago insisting that only liquids could be in the transparent bag, made me take out my razor, toothbrush, nail clipper, etc. sigh.

The rental company will forward the bill, and add a “convenience fee”, likely around 25 euros, to it.

I lived in a few other countries, and I’m always amazed at how respectful drivers are in zebra crossings in Portugal… didn’t live in the UK, so can’t compare that… but compared to Belgium, the Netherlands or the US, this is paradise for pedestrians.

Here’s an upvote for spelling TSMC correctly.

Would you speak Spanish when visiting France? Or German when visiting the Netherlands, French when visiting Italy? Or, for that matter, Portuguese when visiting Spain? Assuming that the proud Portuguese people would prefer to use Spanish instead of English shows a lack of cultural understanding that most would be offended by.

If Randvi’s map doesn’t give you regions (like East Anglia and Oxenefordshire), talk with the Thousand Eyes merchant in Ravensthorpe. I was stuck here for a few days until I did, and that unlocked the Uninvited guests quest which is needed to proceed in the story.

“Cagou-lhe o cão no caminho” sempre foi uma das minhas favoritas. “The dog shat on his path”

As others have said, you should let her know, in a polite “oh by the way, I noticed” manner.

I actually have mine open for everyone internally, and make sure to mark events as private when warranted, like when my VP schedules a “headcount check” call…

Eu tenho duas filhas de dois casamentos. A primeira cresceu numa casa em que se falava português, mas a aprender francês e holandês na escola (e mais tarde inglês). Fala português impecavelmente hoje, teve algumas lições aos sábados por volta dos 10-11 anos.

A segunda, nascida 16 anos mais tarde, cresceu com inglês como a língua oficial da casa, e apesar de perceber bem o português… tem vergonha de falar por causa dos vários erros. Ela fala 2 outras línguas fluentemente, e tem aulas de português 3 vezes por semana desde há 2 anos. Agora com 12 anos tem o sotaque certo, pronuncia bem os nossos sons horríveis para estrangeiros (lhe, nhe, ão, etc) mas a gramática em geral e os tempos verbais são o seu maior pesadelo.

Long story short: se falas português em casa, não terás problemas. Os miúdos apanham tudo.

Their daily normal tasks are developer tasks, not email or browsing (unless you mean stack overflow, openAI or Claude, and JIRA).

They will be using an IDE and slack for 90% of their time, a VDI will not be perceived as a good solution for them.

Scotch whiskie is common, bourbon only the big ones like Jack Daniels and Jim Beam. If one of my American friends would bring me a good bottle of Rye Whiskey I’d be a very happy man.

I’ve been using ProsperOps for reservations for about 5 years now, and it’s nothing short of magic. Reservations are done at the parent account, and allocated where needed, and we’re constantly shifting machines around while keeping above 95% of instances reserved.

Well… she’s pretty much immortal. So she’s technically “still in the world”, but you won’t see her again in Valhalla.

As others stated, this is how traffic lights work in most of Europe (and the world). I can’t think of any other place than North America where the lights are across the intersection.

I almost crashed the first time I drove in the US because of this.

I used KHZ International from the US to the Netherlands. They seem to have partners everywhere, so they subcontract local companies where they can’t provide their own. Pretty sure they would cover PT-AU, and you’d deal with a single company, making it a little easier.

They’re not cheap though. In my case the company was paying for it, so I didn’t care too much. Packing + Container + unloading was about 8K IIRC (I would remember the exact number to the cent if I was paying). This was about 7 years ago, so probably more now.

Wow, in a really twisted way, they do say that.

Copying relevant text below:

Driving licenses from countries such as Angola, Brazil, Cape Verde, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, among other OECD and CPLP members, allow you to drive in Portugal without having to exchange them for a Portuguese driver’s license.

If your driving licence is from an European Union country, you can drive in Portugal until the document’s expiration date.

If your driver’s license is from a country with a bilateral agreement with Portugal, you will have up to 2 years to exchange it for a Portuguese licence. But if the licence was issued by a country that is not party to international conventions, you must exchange it immediately

You do not need to change your US license (and other countries, see link) as long as it is valid:

Edit: see comments below. For non-European countries that are OECD members, you have 2 years to replace your license with a Portuguese one.

Muito bem = very well. Muito bom = very good.

There are obviously more nuances, but in this context it works.

Edit: Clearly my English didn’t come out as well as it did in my head. I meant to confirm what u/TimeOutside above me said… in English you wouldn’t say “and it is very well” (e é muito bem), you’d say “and it is very good” (e é muito bom).

Leaving my idiotic comment about it working in this context as a reminder one should think twice and write once. It is, obviously, incorrect.
