Under the water, carry the water..

Really? People still buy their garbage? Back when I was still building systems for myself and customers, I quickly learned to stay away from this brand. I see they haven't changed.

I just got a call from a company offering me just that. There are plenty of merchant services who offer such a setup. I've seen it at restaurants around town where they offer a cash discount.

As someone who runs a small business and uses a credit card processing company, I can tell you that the fee structure is FAR more complicated than that. My monthly summary of charges lists 10 different versions of visa charges, five for mastercard, THREE for Discover and one for Amex. The charges range anywhere from .5% + 22 cents all the way up to 2.94 + 10 cents (which isn't Amex or Discover).

I'd mod funny if I had points.

I keep trying to tell people in a facebook group I'm in to stop using chatGPT for product comparisons, but they refuse to listen.. so I take the extra 5-10 minutes to do an actual comparison to show when in fact the AI is wrong (and its about 50%)

Wait what? How did I miss this news about Verizon buying Frontier?

Holy crap. So Frontier begs the govt for a huge handout with the "promise" of rolling out higher speeds, only to turn around and wave the white flag?

Frontier wanders through our neighborhood once every few months trying to get us to switch (I'm sticking with my local, because small business and they've never given me problems). My wife *hates* Frontier because of the crap service and run-around they gave her parents, plus the rep tried to lie to me (the one time I did talk to them) about compared services, saying I was in a worse position with the local. It was easy to pull out my phone and run a speed test to prove them wrong.

Electricity?

Clearly you've never spent any time with lawyers or the legal system. Targon is exactly right. There are rules to filing court documents, and this law firm is in the wrong.

And no, I'm not a boomer (yes, I know it's a general insult term.)

Oh man. KOL. That's something I haven't heard in decades. Glad to see its still around in some form.

At least they're announcing it ahead of time, so you know which models to avoid, and the company, as a whole.

I have a synology diskstation from six years ago, and now I definitely know I won't be using them if I need to replace the system.

What does Gordon Shumway have to do with PETA? They'd be against his eating of cats...

My friends are stupid. So often people post these things either believing, or wanting to believe they're real.. and I have to keep telling them its easy to check.. IMDB is the only reliable source.

God damnit, another time when I wish I had points to mod up funny. Goes right along with the very real "transgenic" anger.
