| Purchase without VAT for EU-VAT-ID holders |
|

Every few months I try again I am tempted to buy a Pine product like the PinePhone, but I am unable to buy it compliant to the EU VAT legislation.
Whenever an address in the EU is specified, automatically VAT is added to the order.
However, VAT *only* incurs for purchases made by indiividuals, or by businesses that do not have an EU-VAT-ID.
For all other businesses (from freelancers to large corporations) inside the EU, VAT does not apply, and the "reverse charge" mechanism is applied.
These are standard rules of taxation all across the EU, and they have been like this for decades. Yet, the Pine shop does not allow me to order in compliance with those rules.
I would like to have either one of the following two options:
- to order directly from a non-EU country, using INCOTERMS DAP (Delivered At Place). This way the payment of duties and VAT is the responsibility of the recipient, and not the sender. I can take care of the EU import handling myself (which I am doing almost every day for incoming shipments). I am a registered importer with customs ID (EORI number) - or
- to order via the existing process (which seems to be DDP via a freight forwarder in Poland?), where i am able to specify my EU-VAT-ID during the checkout process, so that the order will be shipped under the normal "reverse charge" rule that applies to VAT inside the EU for decades.

I know I saw this in the past.... I would love to be able to order replacement back covers with the different logos from the special editions. Even though i ordered the KDE edition, I m thinking I may land on mobian and would love to have the @ on my phone without dropping another 150.

Hello Pine-Team !
Unfortunately I cannot place an order.
I get the following error message from store:
There are no shipping options available. Please ensure that your address has been entered correctly, or contact us if you need any help.
I've played with a lot of variations, but without success. In the past I had already ordered 2 times on same address.
Thanks for your support!

| Midnight Commander on Mobian |
|

Hi everyone,
Just thought I would share my experiences with trying Midnight Commander on Mobian:
(It is a terminal-based twin pane filemanager)
I installed it from Kings Cross by:
sudo apt install mc
I then ran it from Kings Cross by typing:
mc
it seemed to run fairly well, and also worked with touch input.
It has many functions built-in, such as an editor, working with permissions and file-ownership etc.
(Note: It also seemed to add 2 new icons to the desktop, which did not seem to do anything?)
Some tricks I have found useful are:
It seems to be able to be run from sudo for special reasons, perhaps to delete files owned by root etc.
Choosing to zoom in/out from the terminal it is running in can make more room on the screen to see filename etc.
choosing to display the twin panes one on top of the other instead of side by side is helpful for reading long filenames (I was able to change it via a menu option)
Sometimes the phone needs to be changed to landscape mode for a few seconds to see an option.
Pressing F10 should exit the program, and return to the terminal.
(F10 should be accessible from the on screen keyboard, by pressing second key from left at bottom, then enabling "terminal" mode, then pressing the second key from right at bottom (marked >_ ).
Hope this is interesting to someone! -regards.

Hi eveyone!
I recently replace my loudspeaker for my pinephone postmarketos.
I use the Nokia N91.
https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone#S...ne64_store
When i start the phone, i see the green light showing up (12 secondes) and the screen doesn't display.
If i press the power button the black of the screen come more "light" and i press again to get it back to "dark" black.
No *tic* from the hardware when it boot. (like when starting the camera apps)
I can hold the power button to shutdown..
Can someone have any idea what i can do next?
Thank!

I was trying to write a filter to locate some things in HTML and I was quite surprised by this. If I do strstr() to search for <label> it's not found, but grep or search in the mc file viewer can find it.
I even tried putting them in as ASCII codes: snprintf(lbl,20,"%clabel%c",0x3c,0x3e); and it doesn't find them in the HTML. If I look at the HTML in hex mode of mc's file viewer they seem to be normal ASCII, not unicode.
This is nothing specific to a PBP except that I'm using gcc under Daniel Thompson's Bullseye on one. I tried escaping them by putting a \ in front of each one, that doesn't work. I'm pretty sure I've searched for HTML tags in C years ago, I don't remember this strangeness.
