- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content

- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

Yeah, pretty much likely.
I particularly considered it "Portuguese" (as generically as it can go) rather than specifically "Brazilian Portuguese" precisely because the sample text isn't long enough for me to feel whether it's more Portuguese, Mozambican, Angolan, Macauan, or Brazilian (with our many regional variations). "Antes / Depois" is pretty much the way all the Lusophone (Portuguese-speaking) countries refer to "before / after".
It's worth mentioning how it only differs from Spanish (often mistaken for Portuguese by anglophone people) because of the "depois" (Spanish would be "antes y despúes")
Oh, yes, I remember having seen those roof tiles, especially during my early childhood. It's been a long time since I haven't seen it. The closest I saw were zinc roof tiles with layers of concrete (brick and mortar is how we often do housing around here, especially in more urbanized environments; it's fairly common to have rough plaster extending beyond the wall) or lime-based paint (perhaps for better moisture and/or thermal insulation), which may give it an appearance of being made with asbestos fiber.
