What interests me is how they planned to make use of the phone. Aren’t they password locked, and don’t many phones have a way to trace their location, and even ability to take snapshots from the camera if stolen if you have the right app installed? All my phones and tablets have some find my...

You sound like a strong guy. Do you have pepper spray? If not you might consider carrying one. I strated a thread a while ago about it and it sounds like that’s allowed to carry in Argentina, with some rules. I have a concealed weapon permit here in Texas, and because of the complications...

By Chromecast you mean Chromecast with Google TV I assume? I have one of the early Chromecast models and I believe it was a poor investment. I hardly use it, has no remote, needs apps on the phone to run Youtube and such.

Good to know. I have already a good VPN plan, but I imagine I’ll be living in AirBNB for a while, so probably no router configurations for a while.

Oh well. Sounds like Al Jazeera English will work at least. What about Youtube?

Sorry to hear that. Did they look like the type of people that might seek revenge? Did you call the police? Also, what area do you live in? Are there certain neighborhoods where this sort of thing probably won’t happen?

Excellent. Might purchase it. Never used Fire Stick before but sounds like might be a good choice.

Cool. Sounds like it will probably work. What about the Max version I linked to earlier, Fire TV Stick 4K Max? I don’t speak Spanish but I didn’t notice that when I searched for it on Mercadolibre.

Perhaps that person who answered the Q&A isn’t speaking from personal experience and is just reading the Amazon documentation.

Cool. Two of my favorite channels, plus Youtube. Looks like we posted about the same time. Please see my message before. It says at least some of the Fire Stick devices don’t work in Argentina.

Actually, looks like according to their Q&A of Fire TV Stick 4K Max, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08MQZXN1X?ref=ods_ucc_smp_ms_rc_nd_ucc&th=1, it says: “Q: Will it work in Argentina? A: The fire tv series will not work in Argentina yet. Even the International version can not be used. Brazil is...

Interesting, because Argentina is not listed here for Fire Stick: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201624360. Can you watch Aljazeera on there? What about CBSN? Or are they geoblocked in Argentina? I’ve been using Roku for a long time and like it, but they have...

Which one of these work in Argentina, preferrably without having to connect it through a VPN? Also, which do you recommend?

I spoke to Google Fi rep a moment ago. She wasn’t providing an official time frame for how long you can use your phone outside the US, but did seem to say, unofficially I guess, that less than a year would be fine.

But isn’t Google Fi going to freeze the service or something if you’ve been abroad for too long?

Cool. Thanks. This is their website http://www.drspelcman.com/, is very informative and detailed. The couple in the photo isn’t them, that’s more a generic photo to show a good smile I guess. There’s a photo of them on the about us page.

Same here. Looking for quality dentist that can do it all, cleaning, crown, etc. Am very sensitive. Local sedation alone doesn’t seem to work for me. Usually for things like crown or fillings they give me a pill for sedation. English speaker would be great.

This article from Jan 2021 is interesting, goes into lots of detail about using Google Voice abroad: https://culturepassport.co/keep-us-number-abroad/ It says: “Does Google Voice Work With All Companies Who Require 2FA? Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a relatively new security feature...

Regarding the security of the network, what about quantum computers? Can’t they, if created, or if already exist secretly, hack these cryptos? But then again, can’t they also mess with other things as well? Often governments have capabilities exceeding current known capabilities, like for...

That’s interesting. I’d like to know more about Bitcoin’s energy consumption if it becomes more widely used. I don’t know the technicals but some smart people are for bitcoin, like Jack Dorsey, MicroStrategy, Elon Musk sometimes, etc. The guy from MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, actually seems...
