@carloscsaunders @gringokiwi @brunofaggion But that’s the downstream effect that people don’t see, and make tourists not want to come back

@gringokiwi @brunofaggion Yeah that sucks, you are right. But telling that we hate money is something else 🤣🤣 you see people selling everything everywhere
English
When I first came to Brazil I remember meeting an American guy who told me "Brazilians hate money"
I initially dismissed him as rude but I have to admit he had a point
Even a simple overnight hotel stay requires photo ID, selfie, CPF, DOB, address, card type, # installments etc

🇧🇷 My friend booked a very nice upscale hotel in Rio de Janeiro But to pay for the booking online they required to enter a Brazilian taxpayer number (CPF), so he called them and said he doesn't have a CPF No problem they said, they'll sent a new payment form without CPF where foreigners can enter their passport This payment for required a Brazilian phone number though The catch-22? To get a Brazilian phone number you need a CPF number! And recently the Brazilian government made it much harder for foreigners to get that, in my case I had to physically visit the Brazilian embassy in Lisbon and wait for an hour to get my CPF So he had to physically go there to pay Brazil really needs to fix this stuff or it's never going to get more tourists because it's so hard to pay for things here! And it's not just hotels! Because in everything else Brazil is so hospitable and inviting to gringos PLEASE FIX THIS BRAZIL!

@brenorb @gringokiwi #1 is the whole point. We are so unfriendly to tourists that they don’t come.
Not to mention that almos everyone uses pix now, which is a no-go for foreigners
English
Not liking to be devil's advocate but there're two things:
1. We don't have many foreigners, so asking for CPF is kinda whatever.
2. We never know when we'll get in trouble (the guest or the gov), so is better to have more than regularly needed stuff just in case. We're on our own most of the times.
English
P.S. we fixed @iFood, Brazil's delivery app, which on sign up also required both a CPF and BR phone before
Now it doesn't!
You can just tweet things and it's fixed

@AmericanAir All kidding aside, I know you are remodeling the current space, but it’s, hmmm, lets say,… tiny :)

@raphaelsoeiro @vercel Why not use the preview environment? :D
I don't see why you need a custom branch in this case?

Hi @vercel, why is setting up a specific branch for testing part of the Pro subscription, but deployments from any branch free? It seems backwards, it keeps triggering new deployments for every commit.
Also, may I have Pro for 6 months for free?? 😇

@0xdabbad00 Is there such a thing as an existing WorkMail customer? 😂

@raphaelsoeiro @vercel I’m not sure I follow, are you trying to create a fit branch?

With FSD Supervised, your Tesla will automatically find a free spot (even in a busy parking lot) & park itself
Zack@BLKMDL3
Tesla Self Driving automatically reverses to make room for car backing out of a parking spot, then parks in the spot with no human input

Was talking with a broski about this the other day...
Why are the @Airbnb options in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 🇧🇷 so horrific?
Have Cariocas never heard of renovating apartments?
Why must I pay $5,000 USD a month to find an apartment that doesn't have decor similar to my grandparents house?
You've got apartments within walking distance of the most famous strip of beach in the world and the blankets look like they're from the 90s
Someone please give me the inside scoop

Queria levar minha esposa e filhos (americanos) no jogo do @Corinthians mas precisa de CPF pra comprar o ingresso.
O Brasil é um pais que realmente nada funciona direito, pqp...
Já é dificil fazer o moleque acompanhar futebol e gostar do Corinthians (hype aqui é Europa), meu plano era levar ele no meio da fiel e fazer ele se apaixonar.
Mas acho que o jeito é aceitar que isso será impossivel.
Menos um louco para o bando... 💔

This Tesla has driven itself for over 50,000 miles on FSD Supervised V14.2 alone

@wholemars Not a good buy for me 30,000 miles that is only about 2 1/2 months for me

@elonmusk Allow HW3 owners of FSD to upgrade their hardware!!! 🙏

Tesla AI self-driving will be >10X safer than human driving

Instead of simply braking after the fact, FSD is able to anticipate intent before a pedestrian even steps into the road

@brigtaylor @Tesla It's OK, but I really miss the drive from P feature from HW4/5
