Is this the golden visa program you are referring to? Do you know if you need to live there full time if you are granted the residence permit or would you be allowed to split your time between there and elsewhere? Also might you know if eve

>"This is easy to do if you are an US citizen." Is it? Isn't there the issue that you can't just move to the EU as a US citizen unless you get hired by a European company which means no more SV salary.

Relatedly, the Viking stereotype of wearing horned helmets also has its origins in the 19th century. This trope was largely put into the public's imagination via Wagner's "Ring Cycle" opera. See: https://ingeb

But this limited utility comes at a cost of being inundated by billboards. In NYC there is often 4 per single block - 2 on each side of the street. I don't believe there was a 1 for 1 replacement with the old kiosks, they seem to be fa

Well, when the phones were still operated by the regional Bells there was no advertising except for the logo of the phone company. The promotional advertising came only after the incumbents sold the kiosk business to Titan et al.

The folks behind this advertising platform is much more of a Matryoshka doll though. Briefly, the history is that the contract to replace the pay phone kiosks was awarded to a consortium called CityBridge which consisted of Titan, Qualcomm,

I don't know, perhaps they're not predatory in usuary rate sense but I feel like using celebrities like A$AP Rocky and Keke Palmer to appeal to Gen Z to load up on consumer debt feels a bit questionable.
