Quando era pequena ouvia muito, pois vivia num bairro próximo a uma comunidade cigana. Depois de uns anos, parece que o romani desapareceu. Fiquei curiosa se caiu em desuso ou se apenas preferem usar mais em casa.

Para contextualizar: Sou estudante de engenharia e tenho um "colega " que tirou um curso profissional de mecatrónica nível 4 (equivalente ao 12) .

Dia sim dia não esse tal colega, menciona varias vezes que o meu curso de engenharia não vale um cu e que aprendeu tudo o que vou aprender no "curso" e que vou para o McDonald's. Esta atitude é recorrente e o mesmo nem sequer trablha na área de formação (acho que está em restauração ). Concluído,este desmerecer constante é chato mas ainda assim ,quando ele diz tal coisa , eu só me rio. De certa maneira é bom ele dizer isso porque quanto mais a ideia da universidade não valer apena melhor para mim,menos competividade.

Algum de vocês já se deu com este tipo de pessoas? No meu caso é engenharia mas acho que é transversal a muitas áreas

Gonçalo Matias diz que empresário demora 750 horas em burocracias no primeiro ano de uma empresa e, para acabar com isso, anuncia “balcão único”. Luta contra a burocracia é o “combate” da sua vida.

I've been mindful of the ways companies can track my spending habits, and so have been increasingly keen on using cash and avoiding mobile banking/payment apps like the plague. I realize that this varies by country and might be a bit far out, but the thought does linger in the back of my mind. If current trends continue, how much longer until they take cash and browser-based banking from us? Or will there be a reason those options should continue to exist (and be easily usable) far into the future? And perhaps:

• What else can I, as an individual, do about this?
• Is there a tendency for larger banks or smaller credit unions to push towards mobile-only online banking?
• What does it look like in countries where cashless and mobile payments are the norm?

My PC screen randomly went black while I was playing a game, and the VGA light turned on. When I rebooted, the cpu light turns on for a second, then turns off and the DRAM light turns on for a second, them the VGA light turns on permanently, screen completely black and unable to do anything. I have already tried clearing the CMOS, reseating and testing RAM, and the cable to my monitor. Any other ideas?

The Trump administration is preparing to launch major immigration enforcement operations in Chicago next week employing tactics that sparked protests in Los Angeles, sources tell CBS News.

Two senior DHS officials confirmed the administration is preparing to expand immigration arrest operations mirroring the activations in Los Angeles in the spring.

The operations could start as soon as Sept. 5, the sources said.

An easy stroll in a community nature preserve I passed nearby while traveling. One of the routes will take you to a small coastline along one of the inlets of the Atlantic. A variety of birds to be seen as well of views of the many oyster farms in the area. Freshwater pond a little inland as well.

A more pebbly beach along the coast trail, with the oyster farms in view out in the bay.

Thailand's prime minister has been removed by the Constitutional Court, plunging the country's politics into turmoil and dealing a blow to its most powerful political dynasty.

Paetongtarn Shinawatra was dismissed for violating ethics in a leaked June phone call, where she could be heard calling Cambodia's former leader Hun Sen "uncle" and criticising the Thai army, amid worsening border tensions with Cambodia.

The call, leaked by Hun Sen himself, damaged her reputation and critics accused her of undermining the country's army.

The ruling makes Paetongtarn, the daughter of former PM Thaksin Shinawatra, the fifth prime minister to be removed from office by the court since 2008.

The Energy Department keeps ordering expensive, polluting plants to keep running at the eleventh hour. Here’s what’s on the line through the end of Trump’s term.

It sure looks like the Trump administration is not going to let any coal plants close down during its term — no matter the cost to consumers and to the climate.

Israel has faced global condemnation for back-to-back strikes on the biggest hospital in southern Gaza this week, which killed at least 22 people, including health workers, emergency response crews and five journalists.

The attack on the hospital came just after 10 a.m. local time on Monday when a balcony at the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis was hit by what appears to be a tank shell, killing a Reuters cameraman and others. Nine minutes later, as a group of rescue workers and other journalists attended to the victims, they were hit as the Israeli military fired again on the hospital – a tactic known as a “double tap.”

New video obtained by CNN reveals that this second “tap” was in fact two near-simultaneous strikes. These second and third strikes appear to have caused most of the deaths.

Intentionally attacking rescue workers, journalists and other civilians is a violation of international humanitarian law and a war crime.

On Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu conceded the incident was a “tragic mishap.”

But on Tuesday, the Israeli military defended the assault on the hospital, claiming that six “terrorists” had been killed in the attack, which it said was directed at a “camera that was positioned by Hamas.” The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it was continuing to investigate “several gaps” in its understanding of what happened. It insisted that the IDF “does not intentionally target civilians.”

About SECTOR ZERO:

SECTOR ZERO is a first-person, physics-based dark sci-fi adventure. The game takes place inside a massive asteroid being mined by human colonists. You play as a small fragment of an alien hive mind known as The Corruption, which had been dormant in the asteroid’s core, until the mining operations woke it up.

The core mechanic of the game is your ability to corrupt and control human-made machinery. This power helps you navigate the world, solve physics-based puzzles, and overcome platforming challenges.

About me:

I’m a solo developer from Central Europe with 15 years of experience making games in Unity. I work as a freelancer in the industry, but I still love creating my own projects in my spare time. I handle everything myself (code, 3D models, design).

Rogue Command on Steam. (91% positive)

Rogue Command is an RTS game, that is posing countless challenges and offers even more interesting builds to overcome them. We try to make a near endlessly re-playable RTS game for genre veterans and newcomers. Our players keep posting the most insane builds, showing the power of the modular way you can shape your arsenal.

Rogue Command has been out since Nov 18th. And we just released our 10th big Early Access update which has a lot of performance optimizations, introduces some story elements and it introduces the capability to completely alter the balancing in the game by loading modded files in the user folder. A first step, with hopefully more to come.

• Classic RTS gameplay with base building, direct unit controls and resource gathering.
• Find creative and crazy builds of different units, buildings and upgrades, that can push the gameplay into wildly different directions.
• Run based progression where each new try can lead to very different experiences with vastly different enemy encounters and procedural maps.
• Focus on single player experience allows for quality of life features, like bullet-time when you aim active skills. Or slowing down time at any moment to get an overview of the situation.
• Environmental interactions like slowing fog, quickly growing bamboo forests or inquisitive fauna might lead to special tactics depending on the map and your deck. Beware of spreading fires!
• More than 120 units and buildings and hundreds of Hacks, Upgrades, single use Drops that allow for an incredibly wide variety of of crazy builds.
• 10 Ascension Stages each with a unique Boss.

Join our DISCORD, if you want to keep up with development, we are very active on there and have a really friendly and fun community.

Check the launch trailer on YouTube. Or watch some really long gameplay from the StarCraft legend Wintergaming.

Thanks so much for all the positive comments we have gotten on our posts here.

Feel free to ask any questions, we try to be very open and frank about our process and the state of the game.
