The EU forces every member state to implement an exit tax to trap entrepreneurs in a disadvantageous situation (Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive). Some countries such as Sweden implements this only minimally - making…
Norway has a high wealth tax (it’s gonna be 1.1% of total wealth per year in normal cases), high capital gains tax, and an exit tax treating moving abroad as a capital gains event. This means, if you start a…
For me, one of the hibreak pro buttons broke (top left one). NFC payment works fine, but using google wallet on websites seem to fail for me. Video calls are fine but obviously black and white and frame rate is approx…
Searched for “ink” in this thread hoping to find someone else who solved the problem like this An e ink smartphone gives me hours of my life back daily. Can not recommend enough LCD screens attract us like ants to a…
