ISK future prospects if V gets what it wants?

For those of you who invest in ISK, what is the plan in case V manages to implement the economic policies they seek, mainly those related to investing?

Is the ISK seen as a stavle long term option by you even while it is constantly attacked by fairly relevant parties? Would you take yout money outside Sweden?

What options are there? I feel unsure putting more into something that might be rugpulled from me

Conheci o Renan Santos em um mercado e tive uma das piores experiências da minha vida

Eu vi o Renan Santos num supermercado no Rio de Janeiro ontem. Falei pra ele o quanto era foda conhecer ele pessoalmente, mas que eu não queria ser um babaca e ficar incomodando, pedindo foto nem nada do tipo.

Aí ele falou: “Ah, tipo o que você tá fazendo agora?”

Eu fiquei meio sem reação, e a única coisa que consegui falar foi “Hã?”, mas ele ficava me interrompendo e fazendo “hã? hã? hã?” enquanto fechava a mão na frente da minha cara. Eu me afastei e continuei fazendo minhas compras, e ouvi ele dando uma risadinha enquanto eu ia embora. Quando fui lá pra frente pagar minhas coisas, vi ele tentando sair pela porta com tipo uns quinze Ferrero Rocher nas mãos sem pagar.

A garota do caixa foi super educada e profissional e falou: “Senhor, você precisa pagar por isso primeiro.”

No começo ele ficou fingindo que tava cansado e que não tava ouvindo ela, mas acabou voltando e levou tudo pro caixa.

Quando ela pegou um dos doces e começou a passar o código várias vezes, ele parou ela e falou que tinha que passar cada um separadamente “pra evitar qualquer infeterência elétrica”, aí virou pra trás e piscou pra mim. Eu nem acho que essa palavra existe.

Depois que ela passou cada barra separadamente, colocou tudo numa sacola e começou a falar o preço, ele ficava interrompendo ela, bocejando bem alto.

RX 9070 (650 USD) or RX 9070 XT (715 USD) for 4k?

The 9070 XT would stretch the budget a bit, is the better performance worth it at 4k?

Help with Internet / Mobile Plan /

I've arrived in Sweden to study and set things up, but I'm stuck in a void and it's driving me insane.

I have an awful mobile plan from my country (well, awful here) that's extremely limited, and after my daily use ends I'm stuck with no internet or WiFi.

I can't set up broadband in my apartment because I have no Personummer yet nor BankID, and I can't buy a mobile 5G plan either because, again, I need the former. So I can't even use my cellphone - no WiFi / broadband is survivable, but no connection at all?

What can I do?

O que aconteceu com o Mercado Livre?

Eu sempre vi a plataforma como minimamente confiável, porém, recentemente, comprei um cartão microSD de 512GB da Sandisk por uns R$500, e o que chegou foi um de 256GB, e ainda por cima, visivelmente falsificado. O produto tinha centenas de avaliações positivas, inclusive com imagens, e o vendedor com milhares de venda, sendo elogiado pelo ML.

Fui no ReclameAqui e vi que isso acontece constantemente com diversos produtos e perfis diferentes.

Se fosse só isso, acontece, mas o ML mantém todos esses anúncios mesmo pós-denúncias, e ainda impulsiona eles. As respostas no próprio Reclame Aqui são ridículas e privadas, escondidas.

Sempre foram assim? Parece uma loja chinesa premium, onde ao invés de você comprar uma réplica por 1% do valor, compra por 90%. Triste

Razer Chroma V2 Stand Batch Issue

Sometime ago I bought new peripherals and one of them was the Razer Stand for headphones, but I haven't used it much since it was constantly disconnecting for no reason at all, whenever I moved or touched the table. I read that this was a batch issue. Is that rrally the case? What can I do? It was pretty expensive

Skatteverket Flytta Till Sverige - Can I do it without the ''enrollment'' document?

I have already completed the form and submitted the notification. Of the documents I could attach, I only included my passport and my antagning.se selection results as proof of acceptance. When I go to my appointment, I'll bring the physical copies of those documents as well, just to be sure, even though I guess I don't need to (as it's in my form) My only concern is the "proof of enrollment" document. As far as I understand, I won't receive that until late August.

Do I need to wait until I have that document before booking or attending my appointment, or is it okay to have the appointment beforehand and provide the proof of enrollment later?

Also, I saw someone saying they printed their form? I had that option after I finsihed it, but I don't anymore. Is that an issue? Thanks in advance

How much of a hassle will it be to change my name?

I'm a Brazilian-Italian currently moving to Sweden while also going through the proccess of changing my name iin Italy, as it is wrong, and doesn't match my Brazilian surname, as it uses my dad's surnames instead of my mom's last name + dad's last name. So my name is:

Myname Dadmiddlesurname Dadlastname, when it should be Myname Momlastname Dadlastname

Now, since I am entering and studying as an Italian, I am using my current Italian name, but I am in the proccess of changing it, however, all my Swedish stuff will be registered with my previous (wrong) Italian name. How much of a hassle will it be to change it for my Skatteverket, BankID, ID card, my bank, university, etc? This seems like hell. Is it supposed to be this way?

How hard is it to get your Italian Passport name changed to match your birth-country one?

I'm Brazilian and will soon be moving to Europe. However, the name on my Italian passport doesn't match the one on my Brazilian passport, which could lead to some headaches. How difficult is the process of changing it? Unfortunately, the local Italian consulate isn't helpful and it is extremely difficult to book an appointment, plus they rarely respond to emails. What can I do?

My Brazilian name (and the one I go by) is First name - Mother's last name - Father's last name
In Italy, however, it is First Name - Father's Mother's Surname - Father's Father's Surname (Father's last name)

So (for example) it is John Hans Bismark instead of John Rossi Bismark

Why doesn't ASUS cut the childish look at ROG STRIX?

I want to buy a Zephyrus because a MacBook would not work for gaming and some applications I'll need, and from what I've gathered, the Zephyrus is supposed to be their top of the line, sleek and portable option for a powerful Windows Notebook, so what's with the cringy imagery? They tone it down from the STRIX and other lines, but only a bit - why not tone it down completely? Why is the ROG branding even necessary in this line? Why not stick to ASUS? It seems like a much better fit.

Do any of you users enjoy having a ''REPUBLIC OF THE G4M3R2'' logo on the back of your laptop? The diagonal line is already silly and a waste of resources (would rather have a slightly cheaper product with a proper ASUS logo on the back) - but at least it's not cringy and unprofessional-looking

As for the startup, who thought a loud, odd sound with their YOLO GAMER logo was a good idea for this laptop?

Do people like this or are ASUS executives completely out of touch?

Anyone using thhe MacBook Pro as their main and only Computer/Desktop?

Soon enough I'll move for my studies, and I've sold basically all of my eletronics, which I will have to buy when I arrive - it was for a good reason.

Now, I need a Computer for life-reasons and a Laptop for university (or an iPad, but a Laptop would make more sense). With this in mind, I'm between:

  1. Buying a nice mid-high end desktop and a used decent Air/older Pro

or

  1. Buying a high-end used MBP (at least M4 Pro - M3 Max) and using it as my Laptop and Desktop (I'd buy that extension with all the connections and dock it in my table together with a nice keyboard, mouse, headphones, microphones and monitor)

I'm really drawn towards the second option - overall I'd get a better product than either one of the other two in option 1 while apparently not losing anything relevant. The only annoyances I can think of are constantly unplugging and undocking the MacBook (which is fast) and a few games not being playable.

Does anyone do this?

OLX PAY - Tem algum perigo?

Vou me mudar daqui a pouco e estou vendendo tudo o que tenho: PC, dois laptops, XBOX SERIES S, mesa digitalizadora Wacom, Switch OLED, etc. Dei uma pesquisada aqui no sub e o consenso aparenta ser que, contanto que todo o processo seja feito dentro da OLX e eu grave o produto funcionando antes do envio, não há risco. Está correto isso?

Não tem perigo? A grana, assumindo que tudo venda, deve passar de R$20.000 - não quero perder tudo por falta de experiência na plataforma.

Outra, o quão específico eu tenho que ser? Por exemplo, o XBOX sendo vendido com 2 controles tem 1 deles faltando uma capa de joystick, algo que eu avisei, mas o XBOX tem uma micro-dobrinha (imperceptível quase e não afeta em nada) em uma ponta, algo que eu não aviso - mas eu assumiria que já é implicado considerando que eu selecionei ''Usado - Bom''. Tem que avisar todo mini detalhe ou assim já serve? Tenho receio de mandar e uma pessoa inventar problema com isso

Buy from Ebay USA to Sweden?

(Would I only need to pay the 25% VAT tax (other than shipping if it applies)? Does VAT take shipping into account?)

(Many things are much cheaper in the USA, and the used market is much better when it comes to electronics, at least, so I was looking at an used MacBook Pro for $590 - which is 5450kr)

(Would I only need to pay 6820kr in total, then? If so, it seems much better to buy used from outside Sweden, even with the VAT)

MacBook Pro, M1 Pro, 16GB/512GB for ~$750 worth it in 2026?

The actual price is $950, but since new ones are more expensive here, I tried adjusting it to make an equivalent price in the US. Like-new quality and good battery life remaining - would you get it?

A new MacBook Air M5 16/512 is $1500 here, for comparison purposes

Thanks in advance

KF or IKS for accumulation?

Which one? I did some research and I came to the conclusion if I want to follow through with Boglehead and then FIRE, the best would be accumulating with IKS and then moving everything to AF, but can't I do the same with KF?

How is KF much different form IKS? Which one is better long term? Is KF better if I want international funds? American market?
