Massive Disruption of PayPal Subscription Service
hausmasta writes "Since August 30, there are massive problems with PayPal subscriptions. The automatic renewal of subscriptions stopped that day, causing headaches for lots of web site owners that rely on this kind of revenue. The problem is global, as this thread in the PayPal Developer Community shows. PayPal is aware of the problem but hasn't indicated any progress yet; some posters are wondering whether they have stopped working on it over the long (US) holiday weekend."
I just came in here to say that.
The United States cannot celebrate the worldwide 8 hour day movement with it's most crucial moment in time becasue of the the hanging of 8 innocent men by the State of Illinois. The US government has taken the worlwide celebration of the Chicago May 1 Haymarket demonstration and made May 1 Law Enforcement Day - a cruel mockery.
That being the case - hey we have to come up with a holiday for the people who actually produce things. And thus Labor (or Labour) Day came to be. This would be from the people who brought you the Palmer Raids.
This US citizen is very very happy to be in Canada and working on living there the rest of my life. This makes year 6.
BTW - I sheltered homeless war veterans for 6 years in the 1980's. I sold the shelter I was legal owner of to Cath Social Services for $1 and it is still sheltering homeless families 16 years later. My friends in the homeless business say the Iraq war veterans are getting totally hosed by the military and VA.
Just blame the disruption on Windows Updates or something.
