Refutable Board Repair Shops for Dell Laptops

Hello everyone! I hope you're doing well. I'm in need of a reliable laptop repair shop that can fix the broken type C port on my Dell Precision. The local Dell service center is currently beyond my budget. Could you recommend a trustworthy shop that can address my issue without causing additional problems? I've heard of many places that might worsen the situation. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide!

I am doing an interesting research about crypto adoption – would love your insights!

Hi everyone,

I’m currently working on a study to understand how people in Bahrain feel about adopting cryptocurrency as a part of daily life. This survey is a part of my academic research, and I’d love to get some insights directly from the community here!

The survey takes about 8 minutes and is designed for people aged 18 and above. All responses are anonymous, and your input will be used solely for research purposes. Whether you're already into crypto, curious about it, or even a bit skeptical, your perspective is valuable!

If you’re interested in participating, here’s the link to the survey: https://forms.office.com/r/MGdVbT2zYu

Thank you for your time and support! Every response counts in helping us better understand cryptocurrency’s potential role in Bahrain.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about the study.

Women gyms that dont suck

Has anyone found a female gym that 1/ is not visible from the outside 2/ is not just a cardio room with bikes and elepticals 3/ has weights that go above 5-10kg

I spent half of today's session rounding up every single 5kg plate in the woman gym to try and do a decent squat before realizing the only room where i could squat has big windows without curtains. I gave up, put hijab back on and went to the mixed section where i'm currently sweating buckets.

Recommendations for female gyms that are both private and not just cardio centres would be very much appreciated!

What your take on the two new suggested changes in health law . Expats with only 10 year experience can be hired with knowing well that it’s only a 2 year contract in public sector . Second the requirement that 50% of employ I. private hospitals be locals ?

Public parking near financial harbour?

Are there any public parking spots to park near financial harbour? I've seen free parking in the harbour it self for two hours only, is there a place to park your car near by? I don't mind walking for a few mins especially now since the weather is nice.

Bilaj Al Jazayer

Too much construction is destroying the beauty of that beach. I used to like it a lot, as one could stare into the horizon as and enjoy the views. Now it has construction of resort ongoing left and right. They keep changing its layout every time you visit. Visited yesterday and more than half of the beach area was restricted by fence for construction.

Spousal Visa Help

My family (husband and 2 year old child) have been here for 2 years with me as a stay at home mom (although I am actively searching for a job).

Long story short, for my wellbeing, I need to leave him. We’ll likely be separated for a while before full divorce. What happens to my visa in this case? Ideally I want to find a job and have a company sponsor me. Is this possible? Can he cancel my visa before this happens? Can he force me out of the country?

What else can I do? I’m sorry I don’t know how to even express more, I’m a bit beside myself. Returning to my home country might be difficult, even if he allows me to go with our child. But I don’t want my child to grow up away from her dad.

I just feel very very stuck.

2 days to kill, what to do?

I've got two days to kill in Bahrain, any suggestions? I don't want to do a tour with a guide to the museum and desert etc, any cool flea markets with antiques? I had time there before and the souqs were a bit disappointing, maybe something with a boat, or fishing? Desert bikes or horses maybe?
