People that paid the $84- are you going to seek a refund? Doesn't seem like 8000 tweet-reads/day was the service you paid for, particularly if this lasts more than a few weeks.

There's a 10 year interest penalty for early withdrawal. and on the faq[1] it says: > Note that in the case that you withdraw the CD before 10 years, the penalty would reduce the principal value of the CD. Does that mean if they clo

yea, maybe they're thinking it'll look like a combination of both- using smartphone secure element and less trust in settlement of the transfer. It sort of makes me think of the xkcd comic though: some EU official was like "j

I don't understand (and don't see answers on Google) about how an "offline digital euro" would work. Unless the EU comes up with some magically unhackable hardware/software combo, or the 'offline' transfer

I wouldn't be surprised if it was because of the Steam Deck hardware. Also possible all the news coverage of leaked copies of 'Tears of the Kingdom' running on the Steam Deck prompted Nintendo to want to take a more aggressiv

Checking an ID in person is a bit different than uploading a picture of it. US IDs are designed for in person verification with security features like holograms, laser perforations and microprinting. Also don't think it's a high b

How do you verify the government ID used belongs to the person disabling the anti-stalker feature? There's a huge market for fake state IDs and stolen/leaked photos of various gov't IDs

Interesting observation. Is it because the training data doesn't have tweets (or at least text from tweets that explicitly call themselves tweets) and this is happening because when we often write on the internet about tweets, we descr

I very much agree with this. Gmail seems to put every single class action suit email in my spam folder (probably because the domain that they come from are brand new, so understandable). Then the website always asks for a lot of personal in
