I always get offers for an additional 1% back on my Amazon Prime credit card.

I had a similar experience. After it was released in the US, I took a trip to the Netherlands. I had a lot of “how did you do that?” reactions from merchants when I paid for things with my phone.

That’s just another whois privacy service trying to cut down on spam. Every domain I’ve bought has had that offered as a feature.

How would you describe the difference between thoughtful and caring?

No, you can do it all on your own. I’ve done it over mail and if you only have regular salary or hourly income, it is like one form.

I thought the motivation to ban TikTok came from concerns about influence over political discourse rather than consumer privacy?

Even if they are in their mid-30s that strikes me as a common age to have children which require child care.

Why is that?

Indeed. We also acquired a lot and are getting bids to build a modest 3 bedroom house for us and two kids. People saying “build more” seem to be under the impression that construction labor and materials are cheap and we’re just refusing to

It’s really frustrating reading this thread looking for an actual answer to the question of “how would Brazil enforce any of its demands?”

In Washington state at least I just have to let them scan my drivers license.

Does it not? Pop!_OS uses Flatpak, I believe.

I suspect not that many care about 4K streaming. Many might actually be doing the majority of their consumption on their phones in the first place.

It is easier when friends, for whatever reason, understand that I can't just "get a babysitter" to come out with them on a Friday night.

You can still have other friends. It just takes more effort to build and maintain those relationships.

Part of me really wants to try this. Part of me is terrified of scanning my passport with an app I have just heard of.

Wouldn’t it look like a normal ACH transfer request? Just faster?

I think that depends a bit on context. If I am at home, and my neighbors are advertising an open Wi-Fi network, I’ve never taken that as an invitation to connect and use it. However, if I’m at coffee shop Foo and I see “Foo Guest” advertise

I’m curious what happens in the restorative justice model of the victim doesn’t want to participate?

by patch_cable 3y ago
Yeah, that sounds about right. While I was with the credit union, the buck was just passed between them and Zelle. Zelle seems to have been set up assuming that banks will somehow support it, and either they’re not actually prepared to do i

by patch_cable 3y ago
Can you say more? Zelle basically never worked for me at my local credit union (every single attempt to use it locked my account on suspicion of fraud), but I use it regularly with Chase with no issue. How do you hope FedNow will improve on
