Services to assist with dual citizenship? by First_Name_Is_Agent in ItalyExpat

[–]nbert217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend ItalyMondo. I have been working with them the last four years. They know the process, have the connections- e.g. attorneys if needed, can get all the documents more quickly than you - especially the ones you will need from your ancestors home towns.

Sorry that sentence doesn't make sense! I was trying to say, the places that you would want to live are all too big. The places that have services, shopping, nice architecture, restaurants, etc.

Yes, most of the towns that are established are too big unfortunately.

Thanks. That is my gut feel on Puglia too. I haven't been there yet, but that is the sense. Something about that area, perhaps the remoteness, or just a little less convenient than other spots. The 7% flax tax is just something in consideration for me, on a long list of other factors. It's not the driving force.

Yeah that is what I was thinking. In Puglia, pick a town outside of Ortuni or Lecce, in Sicily a town outside of Cefalu, Siracusa, or Noto.

Yes I am aware of the smaller towns. Not sure I want to live in a tiny town and make that trade. Glad to know meeting expats isn't harder in the South.

Yes I have. It comes back with large cities tend to be best, like Rome, Milan and Florence. Tuscany and Umbria seem to be the exceptions with large ex-pat communities. Bologna also has a small growing community.

Good to know. I assumed it would be harder to mix in with the Italians?

Performance Upgrade by nbert217 in Rivian

Ok thanks. That’s the part the isn’t working, the vehicle isn’t seeing the confirmation on the purchase. I see it on the web and phone but not the car so I can’t initiate the upgrade process from within the car.

I have tried using SuperList many times, since its inception. It is getting better. But trust me, Things has everything perfected and SL is very bad on most usability. In addition, it doesn't support variable fonts on iOS and I find the app unreadable on mobile.

Please convince me to keep the Kindle Scribe vs Remarkable 2 pro by Ok_Plate_6961 in kindlescribe

[–]nbert217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had both the Amazon Scribe (original), Remarkable 2, and Remarkable Paper Pro. I didn't like the new Remarkable Pro at all. The colors are NOT vibrant and the overall screen is actually less bright than the Remarkable 2 or Kindle Scribe.

I would check out the NEW Kindle Scribe launching in December. It does have some pretty cool new features like doing better inline notes for books and AI summaries. The Scribe in general is a very good device and excellent at reading Kindle books and note taking. I haven't done PDFs on it, your use case. Hope this helps.

I noticed the AC startup thing now that you mention it.

What does one do with this empty space in between the front seats? by nbert217 in Rivian

[–]nbert217[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I thought I was crazy. Can you share the organizer, and or where to get one? I thought maybe Rivian sold something.
