Any improv fans in Limassol? 🎭

Hey, I've been learning improv for a time but only online so far. It's really convenient (and fun!) but offline is much better as we can also use gestures, move around etc.

I tried to find some groups here and found only one in Nicosia but I live in Limassol and don't have a car.

So, anyone here wanna meet up and practice improv in Limassol? Beginners are welcome too.

P.S. improv helps beat a fear of public speaking and train creativity

Shame on some in here, and shame on the families that raised you.

You can go ahead and downvote me already, ban me from the sub while youre at it.

Been seeing many posts in here over the past year, poking fun and ridiculing whether Cyprus forces would be able to fight in a theoretical war.

With the passing of a very close relative that was among the roughly 2000 Greeks that fought in 74, I feel obliged to word this somewhere.

The ones that did fight in 74 did so with far less resources and equipment than is available today, and a balance of power far worse than it would theoretically be today.

But they nevertheless did fight, and had they not done so, there would likely be no independent Cyprus left today.

May war never, ever happen again, but if it would, when pathetic c"nts will be queing to the closest airport looking to leave, trust that the few crazed individuals who will fight, will be enough.

Fight, fight with sticks and stones and teeth and nails if it comes to it, so that you will have somewhere to return when youre done shitting your spleens out in fear.

So sincerely, fuck you. And fuck the defeatist mentality of the families that raised you.

Thats all.

Photovoltaic system in Cyprus

Could you explain how the photovoltaics work in Cyprus ( with no battery)?

I heard that EoC (aik) should be able to save the energy during daytime but they don’t so now photovoltaics are useless during night time.

Affordable Remote Master's Programs in Computer Science while working

Hello everyone,

I am currently working as software developer and looking to pursue a master's degree in Computer Science. Also I would appreciate your thoughts if it's worth getting one and if jobs consider it as an advantage.

Ideally, I’m searching for a program that:

•Is fully remote or offers significant flexibility for working professionals.

•Costs less than 6000€ in total.

If anyone has recommendations for reputable universities or programs that meet these criteria, I’d greatly appreciate your input!

Thank you in advance for your suggestions!

Buying old car in Cyprus

So I’m contemplating buying an old car 2005 or older but the road tax calculation is giving me a headache.

Can anyone confirm whether cars registered before Jan 2014 have their road tax calculated by engine size and not emissions?

I’m assuming this does not change even if the car changes owner but I want to be sure.

I’m sure it’s just me overcomplicating things but any help would be much appreciated.

BYD dealership opening in Cyprus in a few months.

BYD (Build Your Dreams), the Chinese EV giant, is coming to Cyprus in a few months according to a news article published by Kathimerini Cyprus. The official importer/dealer of BYD cars to Cyprus will be the Greek Sfakianakis Group which is already the exclusive importer of BYD cars in Greece. Sfakianakis Group is already active in the Cypriot market as it controls a 48,95% stake in Alpan Electroline LTD, which operates the “Electroline” store chain. (The rest 51,05% of Alpan Electroline LTD, is owned by Greek Cypriot Stavros Taki, who is also the president and CEO of Sfakianakis Group).

 Link to the price list of BYD cars from the Greek BYD website.

are humans real

in my opinion they are not REAL my theory is we disappeared in 1962 after the cuban missile crisis and went in to afterlife and created a civilization called the southern hyperborea hyperborea where dream meets reality everything you can imagine best education on par with european education combined with the power of the usa economy and we took everything we learned from the old world the wasteland created mutated monsters dipped in to a sticky glue like substance then humanity started to rebuild from the scratch a HOPE EMERGED FROM THE DEPTHS OF THE OLD WORLD part 2 is coming soon after the ad's

Calling out to all guitar head of Cyprus

Basically, i have an old cheap guitar from when i started learning. I wanted to buy a new one since that one feels almost unplayable to me, but I'm thinking about just modifying it.

The main modifications that i want to do are to change the neck and the bridge, maybe even the pickups.

But the main issue is that ordering anything online will take ages and have high shipping. And i don't know about any stores in CY that sell just parts or necks.

Are there any shops that you know of that specialize in that kind of stuff?

I have good news and bad news for my fellow Cypriots: Biden pardons his son.

Good news: From the perspective of the extent of abuse of public power, Cyprus is now much closer to the United States than one day ago.

Bad news: This sets a bad example for Cyprus.

Regarding used cars mileage, are 200k too much?

I'm baffled how some people sell cars from 1984 for 3000€ (supposedly 80k klm -_-) or cars with 280k klm for same price

A quick google says that cars usually have lifetime of 150k but lately, better technology and regular service can extend it to 200 and 300k

I just want to get something for 4 years while I study and work in Paphos, ain't planning to go daily or weekly trips to Agia Nappa

Master's degree in European University of Cyprus

Good morning everyone. I'm a graduate student of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. I just saw an ad about an online master's degree with the title "Hellenic Studies". It seemed really interesting to me, so can anyone give me more information about it and about the university itself? (Courses, fees, is it worth it overall etc)

Thank you.

Israelis that cause trouble in Cyprus

I would like to know more about the Israeli tourist problem Cyprus faces.

Are Israeli tourists particularly bad in comparison to other tourists, such as Brits for example?

And what specific types of Israelis are the ones causing the problems? Is it European/“White” Israelis or Middle Eastern Israelis (Arab/North African Jews) or both?

How do I ask my Cypriot college friend on a date?

Hey I (M19) been friend’s with (F18) for a year now. We really get along together she’s really fun to be around. Over the months I started to become really attracted to her as I think she’s beautiful and an amazing person to be with.

But I’m afraid that it might ruin our friendship and idk if she feels the same way. Does anyone have any tips that will help me to ask her out? She is from Cyprus so maybe some knowledge on her country will help me?

Help with intercity bus schedules

Hello! I am travelling to Cyprus this Friday, and I am flying to paphos and then taking the bus to Ayia Napa. I looked through the website and all the schedules are very clear except the one from Paphos to Ayia Napa where it only appears that the bus "starts from 16:00". Does anyone have any information on this route, like how many buses there are or something, I would appreciate the help.

(Photos behind showing the difference of the schedules)
