As of now, I’m looking for a job in the area of Lisbon, Portugal. Sorry to any non-Portuguese readers / potential employers, but I am not ready to move abroad at this time of my life.
My ideal job, at the moment, would be a senior sysadmin / junior PHP programmer “hybrid”, but I’m open to alternatives.
As I’ve said here before: no outsourcing, no MS stuff, no helpdesk. I don’t see this as “arrogance” on my part, but simply as not wanting to waste both sides’ time.
For more details (in Portuguese), and the full CV, please visit www.pedrotimoteo.com/cv . Thank you. 
Sorry about the offtopic post, but I really have to write about this, here.
While way too many people were too self-centered (”this doesn’t concern me, so I won’t move my ass”) to do anything at all (only about 40% of the population actually voted), still, the results were positive: the “don’t send women to prison anymore” side won. It shows that the Portuguese people are slowly, but surely, leaving the Middle Ages.
Today’s referendum, no matter what the fundies said, wasn’t about “saving lives” (anyone who really needs to have an abortion, will almost surely get one — even if it involves falling down a flight of stairs –, and who is concerned about their lives?). It was, instead, a choice between those who believe people should be free to decide things for themselves, and those who feel they have the “right” to control other people’s lives, to impose their own morality upon the rest.
Fortunately, and while the result isn’t “binding” (due to the low turnout), the former group won. It’s great to feel proud of my country, for a change.
