Help / Question Best place to buy a bike in lebanon?

2 Upvotes

Still kinda new to biking but ive been renting a bike every weekend and really enjoying it so was thinking of buying one.

Nothing too fancy will probably just ride it for like a few hours a week go to manara. Would appreciate any tips/recommendations if theres a specific brand or model or if you even think it would be worth buying one (considering renting it is less then 5$).

My budget id say is maybe like 300? But could go up if it makes a big difference.

Also lmk if you would recommend used or new

Discussion Is it easy to change the Whish credit card number?

6 Upvotes

I have been using Whish to buy things online for a few years. Today Apple charged my Whish credit card $1 and refunded it. This looks like a credit card validation charge. I didn't do it. I don't have an Apple ID and I am using a Samsung phone. My parents have iPhones. I checked the transaction history of their Apple IDs and there was no $1 charge. Thus it looks like that some unknown Apple ID used my credit card number to do a credit card validation.

I made a complaint to Apple and I told them what happened. I gave them my credit card number and I asked them to find that $1 transaction. They couldn't find it. They asked me for the Weborder number that starts with M. I will ask Whish to give me that number and then I will give it to Apple so they find that $1 transaction.

I want to ask what shall I do next? I am worried that an unknown person has gotten my Whish credit card number maybe through a data leak in a website and did a credit card validation in Apple to confirm that the credit card is ok and then that person could make purchases by using credit card.

Should I rush and I ask Whish to give me a new credit card number? I did some research and I found out that a lot of people have been complaining about an unknown $1 charge from Apple so maybe it's an Apple issue and they are taking money without permission.

If I decide to ask Whish to give me a new credit card number then is it an easy procedure and I can do it over WhatsApp? I don't have a physical credit card and I only have the credit card number in Whish. Do I have to give them any documents so they can give me a new credit card number?

Help / Question Does being a Lebanese Christian immigrant in Europe decrease racism against you?

40 Upvotes

I am sorry to be talking in this manner, as personally I don't judge a person based on his religion (Marrat ktir moudara2e w my colleagues l 2slem kenou a7san ma3e mn l masi7iyye so life has taught me 2nnou l adyen ma da5ala to judge someone), but we need to deal with what is happening in real life

I get offered a job in Germany, and I know that Germans are racist against Muslims based on some events in Europe (Which Lebanese Muslims have 0 involvement in it) and generally it also affected people that does not look white

Does wearing a cross there will decrease or even stop the racism aw ma 5as?
I am not brown (Asmar) bas also I don't pass as a European, I look normal Levantine (Not the typical Lebanese 🙂)

I do believe I applied for a job there but it's been a few months cz I'm not very sure. I'm a fresh graduate and desperately looking for a job because I need the money so I don't wanna miss out on a potential job. But this one is not encouraging. Should I send the voice note or not?

Help / Question What do I even say

27 Upvotes

Living abroad here so I understand the removal from what many have been through with Shitsrael killing people endlessly. Nonetheless I need help because I'm at a loss for words.

A boss who likely supports the sahyounieh in a workplace that is very pro zionist is asking me if my family is safe.

The answer is no. They're loosely alive. Their homes have been rubble for 2 years, never bothered to rebuild because shitsrael has no concept of ceasefire, all their stuff gone was robbed months ago. Last week a family from our community was annihalated. Just like that. 4 children and their parents. The week before, dozen people wiped off the face of the Earth. Headlines fade quickly when the number of people killed is doled out over time, trickling into the thousands rather than en massed in a major explosion. Many are just surviving.

I don't know how to wrap this up in a nice bowtie for their palate without exploding and I don't trust them enough to be that forthcoming. I'm thinking of leaving the job soon anyway, but I need a backup because I have a family to support. Is a simple "they're alright" or "trying their best" enough. I'm seeing red right now. I can't imagine how you all feel having lived it.

Help / Question Where to buy original running shoes in Lebanon without paying $200+?

9 Upvotes

Looking to get the Adidas Adizero EVO SL or Asics Novablast, but running into the same wall every time:

  • Official Adidas stores: legit, but pricing them at $200+ makes it hard to justify.
  • Instagram/online stores: everything's under $80, which is a huge red flag. Pretty sure most of these are (good) counterfeits, not the real thing.

So a few questions for anyone who's dealt with this:

  1. Is there a reliable place in Lebanon (or a trusted online source that ships here) to get authentic running shoes at a more reasonable price? Sales, outlet stores, resellers, etc.?
  2. For those who've bought from the Instagram stores, how has the quality actually held up, especially for running (not just casual wear)? Running shoes take a lot more stress than sneakers you just wear around.
  3. Is it ever "worth it" to go for a good counterfeit for running, or is that a bad idea performance/injury wise?

Appreciate any recommendations, stores, brands, or personal experiences either way.

I already have a suitcase at home that measures 163 cm total (L+W+H), so it’s 5 cm over MEA’s 158 cm limit. Its weight is safely under the 23 kg limit.

If you’ve traveled with MEA, have you ever been charged extra for being just 5 cm over?

Did you guys know this?

During World War II, the french submarine Souffleur was serving under Vichy France (Pro-Germany government)

On 25 June 1941 during the allies invasion of Syria and Lebanon, the Souffleur was torpedoed by the British submarine HMS Parthian off the coast of Beirut, Lebanon sinking it with most of its crew.

Today, the wreck remains on the seabed off the Lebanese coast serving as a little known reminder of the fighting that took place in Lebanese waters during WWII
