Hear hear, from another Brazilian (now dual citizen) who emigrated.
Not sure if by "centralised recording" you are referring to the UK way or how it is implemented in general (civil law) but I can say that in Brazil the registry definitely does not have only the last deed. In Brazil the…
It is exactly the same in Sweden: biometrics are stored only until the passport/ID is manufactured, then destroyed. Only copy is on the chip. At least this is what the law says, and how it is supposed to be. Reality on…
Another Swedish resident here, using GOS for around 5 years. So far all the dealbreaker stuff works (BankID, Swish, bank apps, transport apps, etc.) which is great. That said, I also work in Denmark and need the Danish…
This is not true. The airline has the right to ask for it but in practice this is not really done -- or let me rephrase, not consistently done. I fly intra-Schengen flights at least twice a year. I had to show ID…
I have it, it does not. Well, it may. It depends on the firmware you install on the cable. Depending on the firmware, different things will be broken. I tried them all. There's no version that will consistently support…
I can confirm I finished RDR2 in story mode in Bazzite, zero issues. Never played the multiplayer part, though.
I have finished RDR2 on Bazzite (story mode), zero issues.
People in general absolutely love this, and are proud that their country is so "modern". I meant: it is convenient. No doubt. I do use all this because it is convenient. When it works, it is great. The dumb part is to…
So what actually happens in Sweden: there are two officially sanctioned authentication apps: BankID (originally developed by banks) and Freja. Both only run on a mobile phone. For government services, both will work.…
Check how Play Integrity works today (DEVICE and STRONG integrities) and how it uses a non-extractable hardware key fused into the chip or security processor. Or read the GrapheneOS attestation guide and their example…
I'm living in Sweden for ~20 years. I haven't used a banknote in more than 15 years. During this time I can't recall a single time I saw anyone using a banknote either. Here in Malmö where I live, especially since…
I'm not an huge fan of BankID either, but a few corrections/clarifications: 1. BankID always allowed to have different settings for login and for signature. I have done that since forever. For example, I configured…
Twelve is a quite high ratio of children to carer. In Sweden what is considered a healthy ratio is 5:1, and many places do meet that rate or are very close to it. 10:1 would be considered a very poor daycare, and most…
The problem with this approach is that many "secure" apps nowadays (bank, authenticators, etc.), at least here in the Nordics, are checking (among other things) if the app has been installed from the Play Store. If you…
Another problem that exists only in the US as they don't treat you as a slave and make you stand the whole day elsewhere. People have chairs and do use them.
I was in a similar situation when I immigrated to Sweden ~20 years ago (I'm Brazilian). Technically the law says that I'm supposed to carry passport + residence permit (first version was a sticker, then it became a…
As a data point/anecdote, I had a parallel-port Zip drive with a 386 and Windows 3.1. I remember quite clearly that I had to load a SCSI driver in CONFIG.SYS. I didn't understand back then why I had to load a SCSI…
Not a joke. When my daughter was younger and we were visiting the daycare (förskola) facilities around us to pick one, in one of them they didn't have a room for children to sleep indoors, they always slept outdoors…
But is true. I am a Brazilian who lives in Sweden and there are multiple banks here that have blank bans on transfers from/to Brazilian banks due to the amount of fraud and money laundering and lax KYC controls. It is…
Hi. Just out curiosity: where in Brazil?
To add to that: in virtually every country in South America their citizens can visit the other countries in South America with only an ID card, no passport necessary.
> Now, almost all have come from privileged backgrounds, went to Ivy League institutions, live in gated communities, are completely detached from the reality of what the average American knows about the law, and…
Because in some countries you must run some government sanctioned apps that require a "blessed" device, or you are a de facto non-citizen? If Americans had anything like BankID or MitID which would refuse to run on…
