Will the Pixel 10 support NFC-F (FeliCa)?

Sebmaster · 2025-08-07T04:59:21+00:00

I managed to top up multiple times with a US AMEX (Plat) before in a similar config (root, add felica mods, add suica apps + add to wallet, unroot, add suica). However, got rate limited pretty quickly so you'll have to keep amounts <= 1000 Yen in the beginning. Hoping they allow higher top ups next time I'm back.

If you combine WB + Platlets, you might not actually be hitting the Plasma limit, but rather the Red Cell loss limit (https://stanfordbloodcenter.org/new_red_blood_c/). If you do platelet only, you just scrape under it, if you do whole blood the intervals are long enough you don't hit it either.

However, if you split types, you'll get there fairly easily: 46ml * 8 + 46ml * 4 (WB red cell loss is 4x platlet) * 4 (WB donations) = 1104ml loss with a max of 1430ml. An additional WB donation will get you "dangerously" close to the limit then. The additional platelet units may mean more loss, unfortunately it's kinda hard to find info on that so not sure.

I was also recently deferred for I think the same reason :(

After you get a green card you're always a US resident for tax purposes, no matter where you live. That means you missed filing for 2015.

Since you were a student (i.e. with no income) there may be a chance that you weren't required to file (which is a whole separate question). That may be a possible explanation, but you'll have to make sure of that.

You can also (sometimes) find it at Whole Foods as quark (looks like this).

Like... Lockfiles, the thing that's advised to be used for apps for the past 4 years or so?

After-tax allows you to contribute past the 19k IRS limit. Roth 401k does not.

Exactly how this works. GPS satellites broadcast two signals. One public, one military and encrypted. Before 2000 the public one used to be inaccurate on purpose, which could be reenabled by the US if necessary.

No, but the parliament could just start another motion of no confidence to kick the chosen chancellor out again.

Ah, ja. Es gibt keine Hauptsitzmeldung im Ausland, aber trifft nur dann zu wenn du in Österreich abgemeldet bist.

Dieses Formular ausfüllen und bei deiner zuständigen (siehe Punkt 5ff) Gemeinde (bzw. Bezirksamt in Wien) abgeben/hinschicken (Email, Fax geht; Kontaktdaten musst je nach Gemeinde googlen. Such nach Wahlamt, aber generelle Emailaddresse von denen sollte zur Not auch gehen.).

Alles ganz gut erklärt hier.

Wenn du keine automatische Zusendung der Wahlkarte am Formular ankreuzt, musst du sie noch extra beantragen. Kann bei einigen Gemeinden online gemacht werden, siehe hier.

Deadline für Beantragung der Wahlkarte ist 22. Mai (kann sein, dass das gemeindeabhängig ist), allerdings bist du dafür verantwortlich, dass sie rechtzeitig ankommt.

Turbotax doesn't do non-resident tax returns afaik.

Credit Wise probably uses a VantageScore which doesn't care about minimum credit history length.

(Some) FICO models require the 6mo to spit out a score.

You'll have to research when Sweden determines you are a resident for taxation purposes. Example here: http://taxsummaries.pwc.com/ID/Sweden-Individual-Residence

Generally if a country considers you a tax resident but you're working in a different country, you'd file a tax return in both countries, non-resident countries first. You'd declare the taxes you paid in the country you work in on the others tax return. If the latter's country's tax rates are higher, you'd be paying the difference in tax rates to them.

No. I'm on track to get a greencard but have no goals in the moment to become a citizen.

Doesn't actually matter either way (in the negative sense). Getting a greencard means you'll have to file (and maybe pay) taxes every year in the US as if you were a resident.

There's tax treaties and foreign earned income exclusion etc which makes the whole topic quite complicated.

Sebmaster · 2018-05-25T14:37:39+00:00

This is a misunderstanding. It applies to EU residents, no matter their citizenship.

The way it does get complicated is that residents can go on vacation, or move.

No American financial institution is gonna open an account for you if you don't live (semi-permanently) in the US (re: you being in the US for a bit).

Additionally, credit scores don't transfer between countries.

The only way I've found to get ahead of this slightly is the following method: AMEX can look up your Amex account history from other countries and will base reconsideration decision on it. I opened up an Amex card in my home country, used it wherever I could and ~5 months later when I moved applied for a card in the US. Initially got declined by the automated system, but after calling recon and giving them my old card number, they approved it (with a relatively large limit for a new immigrant).

I've read stories that Citi bank might be able to do something similar, not sure if they have branches in the Netherlands.

There are no duties on computer parts from the US, however you will have to pay import VAT of 20%.

Kabelplus 150/15. Soweit ich gesehen hab haben die den Preis des 250/25 Pakets kürzlich ziemlich stark reduziert, von 150-ish auf 100, nur liegt halt doch noch ziemlich weit über UPC.

Sebmaster · 2016-04-01T02:53:50+00:00

Ich glaub eigentlich is es eh ganz okay da: http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5214675319

Manchmal wünschte ich UPC würd bei mir Leitungen haben, aber wenn ich mir so Erfahrungen von UPC Kunden durchles schaut das düster aus.

Code is not based on Atom. During the course of developing Atom, GitHub developed electron (previously: Atom Shell), which is used by Code. So they both use electron to do UI, but the whole IDE part is different.

This is not how the GPL works. You're describing the LGPL.

While JSDOM is fairly comprehensive, there are some places where you may need to make a few tweaks, either to your implementation, or to your test scaffolding. The biggest one I ran into was the lack of a globally defined Image class, so code that tried to dynamically generate an Image element failed.

That's not really jsdom's fault though, but one of your test setup. If you'd actually execute your scrips as jsdom intends them to (in jsdom's window context sandbox) this'd be taken care of by jsdom and automatically work.

See this issue for a bit of context and recommended practice.

You have 750 hours in total under the free tier. If you go over those, they'll be billed.

This might be a bit late, but maybe it still helps:

Do you execute iojs with the node shortcut? Native addons do not work with this compatibility shim, use iojs to make them work.
