A friend of mine had Nitro silently activated on her account. No payment method attached, no transactions, just Nitro. They emailed support who replied with “Oh it’s our new promotion! You get to try it for free, no need to pay or add your card. We’ll ask for your money once it’s done.”
Which is absolute batshit evil drug dealer energy. I bet they rolled that promo out while the CFPB’s corpse was still warm.
I’m an American mechanical engineer that’s been considering working and living in Sweden for a long time, with recent events pushing me to pursue it with more vigor. Do you know of any culture/law/history primers that may be accessible for an English speaker? Or similar subject but in Swedish with children’s book-style vocab/grammar? Cultural integration for kindergartners would be excellent. I’d just like to not make a fool of myself!
Yeah, that’s what I’ve found so far as well, mostly crap postings (though frankly it feels little different in the US). I’ve had Sweden in mind for awhile, have done some digging and have the Pimsleur Swedish course downloading. Found an email for an aerospace professor with research in my field of interest but haven’t reached out yet. Did reach out to a former professor/research lead to pick his brain about emigrating in general this morning but haven’t heard back yet.
Frankly though, the career, mission, dream I was striving for is in the hands of a manchild throwing fascist salutes at the US presidential inauguration and that pisses me the fuck off. I’m trained as an engineer but am not opposed to wearing multiple hats, Ukraine looks like it could use a hand and I’m all about mutual aid.
