I'd like to buy a portable Chromebook for video calls, what do you recommend? [EU > Italy][max 300 €]

I'd like to buy a portable Chromebook for internet browsing, writing, watching series, listening to piano music, and taking music lessons via video calls—and nothing else. The audio and video quality must be high, but I also don't want to spend a lot. Since I don't know anything about hardware, what do you recommend? Specifically, which processor, speed, and cores? And what other features?

I need a camera with night vision (infrared?), so it can work in total darkness. I need it because a loved one with a specific neurodevelopmental condition needs constant company.

During the day, I use regular video calls, but at night, in the dark, he can't see anything, and if I leave a few lights on, I sleep poorly (even wearing a cloth mask, some light gets into my eyes and disturbs my sleep).

So I thought about an infrared camera, which would allow the other person to see me continuously even if he's several kilometers away. However, I've read that the camera app typically blocks the view after a certain amount of time and asks, "Are you still there?" and if you don't respond, it turns off. The other person could click "yes" if he's awake, or if he dozes off for a bit and then wakes up, he could reopen the app and see me again, right? Or is there a way to continuously view?

Can you help me understand? Do you have any advice?  I'd like to spend as little as possible, I don't care the quality, the important thing is that it does its job.

C'è un veterinario che saprebbe dirmi cos'ha questa gatta sul viso?

C'è un veterinario che saprebbe dirmi cos'ha questa gatta sul viso? Non sembrano graffi perché le macchie sono simmetriche.

Purtroppo non si fa prendere, e quindi risulta difficile portarla in una clinica.

Solo veterinari per favore.

Is there a psychologist or psychotherapist here who is at least vegetarian or vegan (for animals) and is qualified to conduct online sessions in English for people in the European Union? Someone I can verify is registered with the register of psychologists, of course.

Ho difficoltà a inserirmi nel mondo lavorativo

F34.

Non sono quel tipo di persona che riesce a svolgere qualsiasi lavoro.

Ho condizioni psicologiche di disagio diagnosticate, e un autismo lieve ancora solo parzialmente diagnosticato (in attesa di effettuare il test avanzato).

Con il test avanzato forse potrei accedere ai lavori per categorie protette, ma passeranno ancora molti mesi.

Io ho bisogno di andare via dal luogo in cui mi trovo, per una situazione familiare che mi crea molto disagio e che va avanti da tutta la vita.

Ho fatto una seduta con uno psicologo (iscritto all'albo) che si occupava di coaching sul lavoro, ma è stato INUTILE, soldi (tanti) buttati per sentirmi dire cose banali che mi erano già state dette dall'IA.

Ma uno psicologo per chiedere quella cifra per un'ora di seduta non dovrebbe essere capace di darmi qualcosa in più?

Ci sono anche psicologi con tariffe basse per chi non lavora, ma ho timore di spendere soldi inutilmente, e rimanere senza soldi bloccata in questo luogo.

A chi potrei rivolgermi per trovare un lavoro in linea con le mie capacità? Ad un'agenzia del lavoro? Ad uno psicologo del lavoro? Al servizio pubblico?

Avete qualche suggerimento?

Sono disponibile anche ad emigrare, ma come dovrei farlo? Andare in un ostello e nel frattempo cercare un lavoro? Secondo voi potrebbe essere sufficiente?

Sono disperata.

Is it true that to rent a studio or one-bedroom apartment in France, they require three previous employment records and a permanent employment contract? I'm a European Union citizen.

I want a notification sound to go off every half hour: is there a free or inexpensive app that allows me to do this?

I receive a notification with a sound (that lasts about thirty seconds) from Gmail on my Android phone.
I'm in the garden and can't hear the sound.
I want the sound to turn on every half hour so I can hear it when I get home.
Once I open the notification, the sound should turn off permanently.
Is there a free or inexpensive app that allows me to do this?

I tried Buzzkill app, but despite granting full permissions to the app, enabling background startup, and removing the battery restriction, the "remind me" feature didn't work.

I can't install the Missed Notifications Reminder app because I'm running a very recent version of Android.

Algunas preguntas sobre el avance de una microempresa doméstica individual

  1. ¿Es posible abrir una microempresa en España (artesanía o alimentación) de forma individual (es decir, sin empleados), con producción manual (es decir, sin maquinaria industrial), sin generar olores ni ruidos molestos para el vecindario y con venta exclusivamente a distancia a través de una tienda online?
  2. ¿Existen costes significativos (sin incluir materiales ni local)?
  3. ¿Es posible para la artesanía aunque la vivienda esté catalogada como residencial?
  4. ¿Y es posible para la alimentación aunque la vivienda esté catalogada como residencial?

Sto pensando di fare le valigie

Voglio aprire una micro impresa domestica: settore artigianato, senza macchinari, con negozio digitale, ma ho scoperto che non appena apro la partita iva devo versare 600 euro ogni tre mesi come contributi (e ho già applicato lo sconto del regime forfettario, altrimenti verrebbero molti di più). Ma se il negozio è nuovo, e non ha ancora clienti, dove li prendo questi 600 euro ogni tre mesi?
I contributi non dovrebbero essere fissi, ma proporzionali agli incassi, come avviene in Spagna, Portogallo, e Francia, per dare il tempo all'attività di crescere. Addirittura in alcuni di questi stati il primo anno non si pagano.

La mia regione organizza un corso gratuito dal titolo <operatore informatico risorse web> di 500 ore. Ho letto in rete che mi potrebbe aiutare nella gestione di una piattaforma o di un sito per la mia micro impresa personale che ho in programma di avviare. Secondo voi è così? Qualcuno di voi conosce questa tipologia di corso? Cosa ne pensate?
Potrebbe essermi utile eventualmente anche per altri lavori?
