The Sega Legacy
I don't know what this is, but while organising my stuff, I found this PDF with the title "The Sega Legacy" and author is Paul.
Before deleting I thought I would share it with the community.
Differences in temperature under the sun and shadow
Saw someone commenting on a post in this sub saying the diffenece between having trees making shadow or not was not as much as the images implied.
Well, this was taken in Portugal during a 40c day at 3pm 2 days ago. It's a 25 difference

Temperaturas em diferentes superfícies, ao sol e à sombra
Toda a gente sabe que certas superfícies aquecem mais do que outras, e que ao sol também aquecem mais do que à sombra, mas tinha curiosidade em ver números reais.
Ontem por volta das 3 da tarde fiz o teste com uma termómetro laser na zona de Coimbra. Não sei a temperatura exterior, mas era demasiado alta...
Superfície: temperaturas ao sol/à sombra
Parede branca virada para sul: 42.2/40.4 - fiquei surpreendido com uma diferença tão pequena, talvez o facto de ser branca, vertical e não ser lisa?
Chão de cimento: 65.6/40.7 - aqui dá para ver que independentemente da superfície, o quão importante uma sombra é!
Relva: 47.9/32.4 - duas coisas: primeiro que obviamente absorve bem menos calor do que cimento. Segundo, a diferença é maior do que esperava, mas pode ser porque o laser estava a apanhar terra ou folhas secas em vez de relva?
A conclusão é óbvia, e aquilo que já (quase) toda a gente sabe: precisamos de mais vegetação e sombras. Portugal é dos países onde já vivi (e viajei) onde se vê menos parques, é não se percebe porquê...
Quem percebe mais do assunto que deixe a sua opinião.
A CN Tower vestida com as cores de Portugal
Hoje Portugal joga em Toronto e tem sido interessante ver imagens da cidade na televisão. Tive a oportunidade de viver um ano e meio em Toronto, e está no top 2 das cidades onde mais gostei de viver.
Tirei esta foto em 2023 e por coincidência apanhei a CN Tower com as luzes verdes e vermelhas (está constantemente a mudar). Pode ser que seja um presságio...
Happy 50th Anniversary to the CN Tower
I have been in this sub for a while and I haven't had the opportunity to post much yet.
I lived in Toronto for 1.5 years, and as a photographer I do have tons of photos of the city. I wanted to share some of them in this sub but i have been hesitating, and it's easy to know why...
But anyway, today marks the 50th anniversary of the CN Tower and I wanted to share one of my favourite photos.
Got a message saying 4 stars is a bad review? [Spain]
I am overreacting on this message I got from my host?
I have been using Airbnb for over a decade and never got instructions on how to review a listing.
"Please read this message carefully before writing your review 😊!
I hope you had a pleasant stay! I genuinely hope that any concerns you had were communicated during your visit, as its very difficult to solve any issues after your stay off course 😉🙏🏻🌷.
When filling out your review on Airbnb, please remember that the "overall rating" is a separate category on its own. A score of 4 for the overall rating is considered a negative experience, while a 5 is a positive experience.
Understand Overall vs. Category Ratings:The "Overall experience" rating is a distinct category, not an average of the other ratings.
Multiple 4s on "Overall experience" can have serious consequences for my listing, I appreciate your time to read this. Many guests have misunderstood the rating system, which is why Airbnb advised me to clarify.
Thank you very much, and I hope to see you again soon! 🙏🏻😊🫶🏻"
