Aotearoa Weekly Kōrero 8/11/2024
Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
I have a framework laptop that I bought a few years back via YouShop because they don't ship to NZ.
Now I want to update the guts of it, and in the past few years it seems they have cracked down on freight forwarding and now I can't order anything because I have an NZ credit card 🙁
Can you use a Wise or Revolut virtual card and pay in US currency?
Not sure, I didn't know that was a thing! I know that Framework have been known to audit orders and cancel ones that are going to known freight forwarders but I can give it a go.
