Little hint for why people get "nasty" about trump: his' motivations are clear (self dealing) and even if what he's purporting to do is something one agrees with in principal he always goes about it in an incorrect and damaging way. How is it that you haven't picked up on this? It's really, really obvious.

None of those staistics nor anecdotes address what I said in my very simple to understand post. I know it's very difficult for so many people in the medical field to accepts, that's why statistics matter. Including those for lung cancer. I'm sure you have access to JAMA - look it up some time. This is so well understood anyone can find it so there's no need to read dowen the dozens of studies over the years, because with someone who posts like the above you're just not going to believe any study because you like anecdotes not data.

And I get it. Accepting statistical outcomes that so goes agains what you truly feel and even think you know based on your miniscule individual experience surely must be correct! But at a population level it's been shown over and over and over to not be the case.

No, not "of course". Over and over again excessive testing and diagnostics have not led to better patient outcomes. They have led to much more treatment and more money going to doctors and hospitals, but not better outcomes.

LOL, your reading comprehension lacks. That's usual for kids today. If you look back what I got from SiriusXM was the NFL radio for a season. Those are all big words so I can understand your confusion. Don't stress...maybe some affirmations and an ambien would help.

It is not because they "refuse to change" it's because the laws, regulations and case law around their use cases are not clear or compatible with anything else. This is risk mitigation.

The vast majority of faxes being sent are inbox to inbox with a third party on both sides doing a ridiculous didgital to analog back to digital using voip over the internet then shoving the "fax" into email. Nobody wants that expense if it's not necessary. It still is.

Checks are the same thing. There are no good alternatives, and no - third party services are not what I consider alternatives. Most other countries have figured this out. That's what needs to happen first before checks go away: a true universal alternative, backed by law and regulation, without third parties and with appropriate consumper protections.

Who's "confirmation page"? What portal? How do I know it can be trusted to prove payment? What laws and case law are there around that?

It's great that you don't care, but lits of people do. There is no valid alternative to using checkes for a lot of things right now. No, "Zelle" and other third parties are not valid alternatives.

Other coutnries have figured this out a long time ago. Interback transfers from phones backed by law and consumer protections. That's where things need to be at a minimum before discussing removing the ridiculously outdated method we have of doing this now.

What a credulous moron. Or paid shill.

Then call it what it is: machine learning, not the latest buzword.

LOL you made a decision entirely based on hearsay and inuendo. All good, it is your choice.
I've never had an issue talking to an english speaking person after a quick pickup, and like the cable company I find they will give me discounts, or vouchers for tickets. Heck they even gave me a season of NFL. I just complain about the price or consider leaving every 6 month or so.

The only ads they run are for their own stations or shows. That always cheesed me off because it IS STILL and ad. They have a partnership with Pandora so I get both. I BT in my phone at home on my stereo, and in the car all the time.
Spanish Flamenco guitar has been this weeks rage. Ottmar Leibert, CUBA, and Rodrigo y Gabriella.
Of course YMMV and everyones' tastes are different.

India ruled a huge empire once. Give them half a chance and they'd do it again. Life under an Indian regime would not be nice...

There's the really amazing big brained thing we've figured out in rural areas: only drop kids off on the side of the road the live on.

32 bit OS's coming back because no one will be able to afford 4GB :-)

One of the Suburu drivers complained, "something on my infotainment system changed and I swerved and nearly crashed my car." Holy $4|7 how did that driver get a license ?
I'd worry more about whose behind the wheel and what they are thinking about besides driving.
