How do you maintain a phone number in different countries on the long-run ? in c/travel@lemmy.world
[–] [S] 1 point 3 months ago

Getting a physical SIM fr said country is gonna be the cheapest and most efficient solution fore cause my phone doesn't do e-SIM, so yeah I'll try to order it directly here if they allow it, and else I'll ask for a family member to ship it to us ! Thanks for the help

    You're right, a stable number is pretty important, and since said country allows me to buy some things for a cheaper price (namely online services), I agree it's only fair to pay for a reliable eSIM. I just didn't know if there was a more obvious way, but reading the coments, this seems like the go-to !

    Thanks for the advice.

    Thanks for the recommendation, if anyone is interested, I checked and indeed their cheapest plan goes for 18,49€ per month, and covers both countries (Latin America package), or 11,49€/month for Colombia and 8,99€ for Brazil, for a combined total of 20,48€. So I'll probably go with the Regional package if I choose the e-sim route.

    I'll check later with a VPN to see if its cheaper in local currency

    What a difference in time perception we have, it's wild, cause the early 2010's was full on PS3 and late-early YouTube era for me. I think everyone I knew around me already was pretty connected to the internet. But yeah 10 years before that, I could see your grandparents' situation being commonplace. Glad you had that time to discover all this awesome technology !

    Hi, so here's the situation : I need to access government services in a different country to the one I live in permanently, and therefore I need a number in said country with the ability to receive SMS for login and payment confirmations. How should I go about it ?

    I guess the easiest thing to do would be to wait for the next time I go there and buy a cheap SIM card there. But the problem is I'm only going to that country in a year from now, so I'd like to speed up things.

    I thought about getting an e-SIM with the lowest amount possible of data, but it still comes out pretty expensive for just receiving confirmation messages.

    Anyone have a better idea on how to do this ? How do double citizens go about this usually ?

    Edit : didn't think it would matter much, but the country I need a verification number in are Brazil and Colombia, while I am in the EU

    LiberaPay will probably accept Wero payments in c/buyeuropean@feddit.uk

    LiberaPay will probably accept Wero payments (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
     

    I donated to the devs of Lemmy for the first time, and discovered what LiberaPay is, but found out they only support American payment methods as of now, which is quite sad. But then, I went to check their GitHub suggestions to see if someone had already asked for it to be implemented, and here is their answer :

    "Hello, Wero isn't ready to be used for crowdfunding through a platform like Liberapay. We'll add support for it when doing so becomes possible and worth the effort. As noted in #1356 (comment), Wero is currently in “Private preview” at Stripe." GitHub Source

    Hi, I have a hypothetical question that is probably going to sound very dumb once someone shows me a very simple workaround :

    In this situation : there is a properly setup server in house A with a running jellyfin/immich server, and there's a second server in house B for homeassistant.

    Is there a way I can use server B to remotely connect to server A to access JF and Immich and stream it via HDMI a TV in house B ?

    Thank you in advance
