If you know your 80s pop culture it's a great parody. Kilmer at his best, like Real Genius. Or was that Weird Science? Good times.

Just an annoying delay, thankfully nothing actually broke. These Ariens machines are beasts.

Took a bit to "unbrick" but yes, still works. Last time it was lunch trays the kids use as sleds and those took about 30 mins each to unjam. Always an adventure.

Nothing. Just got jammed up by a brick the kids left in the driveway.

Virtue, like vice, is more path than destination. Perhaps the path is the destination.

After a couple more tries, results started popping up. Maybe it was working in the background and I just didn't see an indicator. Thanks for the help! It has a crisp interface...nicely done...I'll use it!

To what address is the reward settled? "Come on, man."

The Tyranny of KYC

KYC was initially created in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks to supposedly stop terrorist financing, but it’s the US government that funded Al-Qaeda BOTH before and after 9/11. Osama-bin-laden originally was financed with “Operation Cyclone” in the 1970s to stop soviet influence in Afghanistan. [1] That's how he got rich enough to do 9/11.

Then AFTER 9/11, the US funded Al-Qaeda in Syria, to overthrow the Syrian president Bashar-al-Assad. [2] It’s absolutely ludicrous that the only people they could find dumb enough to die to overthrow Assad, is the 9/11 terrorists who murdered Americans.

Most cryptocurrency exchanges, including Coinbase and Kraken, use Plaid for ACH deposits. When you use Plaid, not only does Plaid see your entire transaction history, your income, your spending habits, and your life choices and preferences, but on top of all that, the crypto exchange and then third parties get the data as well. To quote the Electronic Freedom Foundation, “Plaid’s other APIs grant access to geolocation, users’ liabilities, including credit card debt and student loans; their investments, including individual stocks and bonds; and identity information, including name, address, email, and phone number.” [4]

In fact, Plaid recently LOST a class action lawsuit and agreed to pay 58 MILLION in fines for illegal data sales and manipulative practices. [5a] Thousands of apps use Plaid. Millions of consumers had no idea that Plaid was going into their account and scraping everything they ever did, even though it had nothing to do with the lone purchase they were making. [5b]

Weak-minded propagandists spew dribble that Plaid “anonymizes” the data before its sold, but numerous statistical studies have demonstrated the anonymity to be weak because of the huge breadth and quality of the data. [6] This data is then sold and used by marketers to steer your purchases. [4] Plaid is often not voluntary. Some ask “What is the harm in advertisers knowing everything about you?”

1. They can charge higher prices when they know you want or need something.

For example Orbitz steered Mac users to pricier hotels since they overpay for Apple electronics. [7c] This is what Target did by charging customers on its mobile apps more when they were physically near stores and unlikely to seek an alternative. [8]

2. They can manipulate you to buy things you don’t need

For example McDonalds hired the surveillance company Silverpush to link audio data gotten without consent from its mobile app, to sounds coming from Youtube or Television to display “relevant ads” across platforms. [9] This is literally preying upon addictions to encourage you see McDonalds everywhere, and get diabetes.

3. I use this analogy: in financial markets, when a whale goes to buy a huge quantity of an asset, quick algorithmic bots will jump ahead because their small orders get filled immediately without moving the market. This is nicknamed “front running”, because as the whale pays higher and higher and prices to get volume filled, the bots make a quick profit.

When you let Google see the searches of your desires, with the weaponized data sold by Plaid, you’re literally letting them “front-run your thoughts”.

I seek to systematically train users to self-empower themselves with open source technology.

Hey nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z, my OCD is triggering with the purple text baseline. Afaik this started happening since 0.83 or so? Not always, but it's happening in several locations.
