So hot, equally baffled.

I’ve seen this in banking too. I have my health savings account with a provider that charges a percentage of your holdings as the admin fee. That can add up. My old one is a flat rate per month. I have been transferring the money every year to the flat rate provider and the process is completely arcane.

1. Find the document on their site. The correct document isn’t named clearly like the document you use to pull other providers into your account.

2. You have to print it and write by hand (not an editable PDF)

3. Assuming you’ve done this correctly you must mail them the document, like he said, with a stamp like a fucking caveman.

4. Behind the scenes the process is even more arcane, because again they claim they PHYSICALLY MAIL A CHECK to the new provider like fucking cavemen.

It’s really clear that this is in bad faith. Banking “innovation” is a joke in the US. I know that everyone hates crypto up in this bitch (I get it), but a little self custody would go a long way in situations like this.

Snowcrash: pleasantly surprised by the quality of the world building, which I love.

What do you like about it? It’s one I’ve almost bought multiple times.

Edit. Well you’ve convinced me. I never looked into it and I assumed that it was some sort of open world game, not that it was story and puzzle driven. I’ll definitely be checking this out. Thanks for the recommendation wonderful internet people.

I’ve had to repeatedly switcho “new teams”. The selection isn’t sticky for some reason. It seems like it shouldn’t be that hard to develope a messaging app that does file transfers and meetings but apparently this bloated pile of horseshit proves reason wrong. A second long delay when changing threads? “You’ll use it because corporate says you will…and you’ll LOVE IT”.

“Holy shit this femboy has great legs” said I to my wife.❤️

Physics teacher: “The electrical force that repels the bottom of your foot from the surface of the earth is greater than the gravitational attraction between the entire earth and yourself”.

Me: 😲

Edit: I guess it’s more correct to say “equal to”, rather than “greater” since you’re static.

I’m just curious how many Palestinians need to die, and how much of Gaza needs to be razed to dust before we’re “even” in the minds of proponents that somehow this war is justified. Legitimately and in good faith, when are we “good” here?

There’s something wonderful about the delight on Seven’s face❤️

For me using signal wasn’t about becoming Jason Bourne, it was about changing the threat model. I don’t have any dilusions of grandeur that I can’t be owned if I’m targeted, but you know what? My calls and texts aren’t stored with my phone company with a direct link to the Government and advertisers. That may be low hanging fruit, but that’s dealing with most of the issues the average user is going to run into. I’d suggust that the step from SMS to Signal is of greater benifit to a normal user than from signal to something more advanced. And, fwiw it’s open sourced and audited, which gives me more confidence than something like imessage or WhatsApp, despite similarities im encryption schemes.
