I am still rocking the MBP 2015 and recently changed the battery. Did you consider doing the same? That is, updating batteries instead of getting the new ones?

I was just going to say Google Fi absolutely nails this until I saw your last line and realized they're still just catering to the US market. The past two years I've been a digital nomad living about 90% time outside the US and tr

Can't believe this is only recently getting attention. It's not just Oracle, it's common knowledge how the same thing has been happening in several large corps. I know from the inside because Deloitte came in and scooped up o

Anyone considering this phone and Project Fi, there's a really good offer going one if you get two of these and get a friend to sign on to Fi JUST for a month, you get $799 in credits. Really good if you're already paying monthly

I was just coming here to say the same. I can't believe anything positive related to Tron is on top of HN. It is a very well documented scam and obvious scam.

I'm not sure why some think the parent is trolling. I read this and I was smiling because I almost literally do the same thing and call myself a "Digital Nomad". The difference is probably that I'm not as rich or as succ

Yeah definitely at the moment I'm not saying people would get into crypto because of such benefits. We're definitely very early adopters. I could do this because I was already investing and had BTC in my Coinbase account. I'm
