The problem I have with those Mobile payment apps is that they circumvent Banks and banking protections so that if anything goes wrong you are shit out of luck. But banks don't like making it easy to transfer money because they like to use it to force you to keep all your accounts with them. So a wire transfer is slow and difficult.

A quick Google search turns up several of her other "articles"

Every single one of them is a poorly written and poorly researched opinion piece similar to this one talking about some moral panic regarding the collapse of the American education system with a special emphasis on how bad colleges.

This is more anti-higher education propaganda because Rich assholes do not want your kid or your grandkid getting a good education and thinking for themselves.

Little surprise to see it in the Atlantic, but honestly after what I saw in the last 2 years with regards to American Media not all that surprised. The Atlantic is owned by Steve jobs's ex-wife so we're not exactly talking salt of the earth ownership here...

As usual, follow the money

He's the president of the United States and he is using a detailed plan, project 2025, to completely remake our entire government and society. So no there really isn't going to be anything that doesn't somehow involve trump. He is fully exercising 50 years worth of accumulated Presidential power through rampant abuse.

I can't help it if you're not paying attention or that you don't understand how our government is breaking down.

No this is taking the data that we have and fitting it to the most likely outcome. We have a lot of data because Trump is constantly in the public.

So yes there are other possibilities but this is the one that fits the data. You might not like it because well, you love Trump and you're hoping he gets a third term, and you probably not going to admit that because nobody who likes Trump admits it outside of safe spaces, but this is where the data points to

So the stuff on his hands is definitely from a IV. The only question is what is he getting as an IV on a consistent basis.

And then we have the MRIs. You don't just do MRIs. There is no such thing as a preventative MRI that doesn't involve a known issue.

Alzheimer's is the only thing that fits the data we have. Yeah it is possible it's something else but if we just talking about probability and likelihood especially given Trump's behavior where he keeps falling asleep during cabinet meetings, a side effect of Alzheimer's medication, again it fits the data.

The only difficult part is Trump rambles like a lunatic with Alzheimer's and has his whole life so it's difficult to tell if he's lost his marbles because he never had them in the first place. With Reagan we all knew because they had to take him out of the public eye because he couldn't speak in public anymore with Trump they just let him speak anyway because he's always sounded like that

And I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I knew disabled kids in college and they got absolutely no special dispensation.

In particular a kid of a friend with some pretty significant health problems repeatedly ended up in the hospital due to those problems and just had to deal with it. And my type 1 diabetic friend is extremely smart but didn't have a prayer in hell in college.

This is rage bait of the worst kind. But the old farts around here will eat it up like candy

To crash the OS out wound need to be in the kennel, so do a quick test if that RAM using something like MARCH C.

Given that Linehan had spent months harassing her on Twitter, to which she didn't respond, and she was a child at the time... I can't see any justification.

Trump's disastrous mishandling of the covid pandemic and his inability to do what Obama did and keep the virus overseas like Obama did with bird flu means that it spread and devastated supply chains. Furthermore 4 years of trump refusing to enforce antitrust law created even more consolidation with less competition and more monopolies. Finally Trump gave away trillions of dollars to the 1% who used it to buy up even more companies and jack up prices on everything.

Biden came in like a Democrat always does after a republican crashes and destroys everything and started putting things back together. But because he didn't do it fast enough and because you are easily distracted by woke PC dei trans girls telling you happy holidays while playing esports Mortal Kombat Mortal panics you didn't go by the 8 years Democrats normally get to undo some of the damage while the Republicans sabotage everything they can in the meantime.

So even though Joe Biden had a plan to lower prices by doing extensive trust busting all that's gone now because you're a 12-year-old child and a grown man's body and orange man good.

You will spend the last few years of your 12-year-old life homeless and if you're lucky one of your crotch fruit will let you crash on their sofa.

In my feed lately. And I'm guessing it's because the news media really really wants to cover Trump's MRI but isn't allowed to. I mean except for the British press.

A member of Congress just pointed out that the spots on Trump's hands are probably from an IV used to administer in Alzheimer's drug and that the MRIs are likely because the drug has a side effect that can cause brain swelling and they are monitoring for that.

What's weird is while this is going on suddenly I get all these stories in my feed and on pages I frequent about mris. The algorithm knows that MRIS or being searched for by people because even though the regular news media isn't allowed to talk about Trump's medical condition people have Google and are using it.

I suspect what's happening is that most newsrooms will monitor frequently searched keywords and start running stories about them to soak up ad revenue. People are searching for MRI because Trump is in the news and The newsroom is ordering stories about it.

It's kind of bizarrely cool and a cyberpunk kind of way.

Hmm, two decades ago perhaps. We must be getting old because it doesn't seem like that long ago.

It's more like "dictionary entry of the year". Some things where the two words have to be used together for a specific meaning have dictionary entries, such as speed bump, for example.

Then everyone will start using it as an excuse to attack other people. Especially the cops - they hate being filmed. They will claim it was "aggressive" and justified violence.

A guy called Graham Linehan was just convicted of smashing a girl's phone, when she filled an interaction where she asked him why he called her a "groomer" on twitter, and worse. It was the right judgement, he had no need to do it, and mere annoyance can't be enough or everyone will be smashing stuff they dislike.

If there were better APIs they could do that. An API for sensors, with a maximum safe limit supplied for each one. When a BSOD happens, it could do a little memory test on the affected area.

A better way to learn. The more tactile feel of it combined with the accumulation of physical notes seems to be an improvement.

What I am wondering is if you have a stylus and also probably one of those gloves to keep you from smudging the screen how does that compare.

One thing I do know is that if you are really going to learn things you have to use them in a effective way. Basically you need projects that use the data and the learning. But having students do that versus just testing them on problems individually is very expensive and we don't like spending money on kids that aren't ours. It's really kind of an every man for himself world these days.
