Hey HN! I offer Speed-Networking-As-A-Service. The networking events are automated and can be standalone or part of (for example) webinars. I made this because to support online events after my in-person events were not allowed anymore. I h

You (and I) are clearly not the target market. 95% (guessing) of the people use their computer only for email/browsing and gaming. Apple is a premium brand for them, bought as a statement (I am cool, or something). People pay premium f

In Europe some or all of the new online banks have the option to create new credit cards on the fly. One time use or keep a special card for one or two suppliers. See Revolut, Bunq, N26.
