"Your kind" ?
You just went on a rascist tirade the other day for no fucking reason. You might want to choose your words better.
You keep going on about being anonymous, ignoring the fact you're posting anonymously. I don't understand how you're overlooking this. You go on about others hiding on/., but you're *demonstrating* how you're being anonymous more than other AC's by getting around post limits with proxies and shit.
How about you define "useful work"? I think the words speak for themselves when talking of value.
My takeaway from Bruce's comment is the value. I can buy water bottles for $1 a piece. If people around me need water, I can likely sell to them for more than a buck. If everyone else has water, I sell for less than a buck and lose money. If nobody wants to buy my water for any amount and I'm stuck with them, then at least I have the water.
I had stock in a company. It was worth some $$$. The company went tits up. The paper stock certificate is not even usable to reuse.
At some point, I think Bitcoin will run into a brick wall, whether from technical issues, regulatory issues, or just that the big banks who didn't get in at the bottom do their collusion thing and fuck over bitcoin.
But I would have guessed that would have happened already and that Facebook would fail when the kids left after all the grandma's joined, but I was very wrong about that. So do what you want with your money, just don't fuck over the entire economy if the thing goes tits up overnight. We don't need another housing crisis from people losing their houses after mortgaging it for bitcoin.
Honestly, I'd be able to ignore apk and let him post excessively in peace if he changed his format to be more in line with typical, universally accepted format. Nearly every thing from "see subject" to the "P.S.=>" to the random bold text just gets on my nerves. That's not acceptable in any form of writing.
I would be curious if he did have Vatican conspiracies. Not enough Catholics know how dirty the church is/was with the accumulated wealth, Pope poisonings, deals with the Mafia, to pope's and cardinals with children and wives, etc. It's a fucking powerful shit show.
Alright, on second read, I probably didn't make the first part clear about them providing an added value to justify their existence more than you're stating.
But to add, on a small payment site, 5% is fuck all. Services like that can be 20-35%. I usually can't use my debit card in small businesses without it being at least $5, seeing that they're paying $0.35 per transaction plus monthly equipment and service fees on their debit machine.
Not with just asking to buy a drink and not being all up in her personal space, no.
I recall reading a Judge's write up about hitting on women and acknowledged he had to try a few times with his wife and if things got so fucking touchy with just words, our species will be in trouble.
The take away was basically don't be rude and know when to take a hint to leave an uninterested girl alone.
Are you dense? I said why you're a cunt in two ways.
First, they provide a service with added value services, not just process the payments. They are not even a payment processor like eBay to process payments with little to no cost, taking a cut for mostly just handling and dispersion of payment (yes, eBay provides added value to the seller and buyer to 'earn' their cut as well).
Second, you said Patreon started because they are parasites with the intentions of just taking other people's money. I clearly explained how the intentions of Patreon is not like that and want to see creators survive.
You however, replied with nothing of value and had no response to my assertion you're an asshole. You didn't say what you do, likely because you're the parasite. You know, takes one to know one and all. (Hehe, I'll cop to being a cunt, too).
Using Firefox on Android, there's no preview and there's new paragraphs when I submit it, so I only know they're not there afterwards, and there's no fucking edit. Sometimes I'll remember to have two new lines, but not always. Sometimes there's new paragraph and sometimes not. *shrug*
Double new line test. I really hate walls of text, too. I guess I should have realized when it happens to others, it's likely the browser or/.
When this letter to the paper from the former worker was printed, local politicians had a photo op saying they were giving millions to that organization, which turned out badly since the place closed like 6 years before due to lack of funding. They didn't even bother to look into this place, probably just heard about the former workers letter and missed the part where they closed for lack of funding.
I never voted for those politicians the next election.
I don't think it's always a lack of money, it's a lack of workable solutions. If you got a great plan, I'm open ears.
My town is considered to be in homeless crisis for a few years and there's provincial and federal money, just nobody wants the housing in their backyard.
One of the best places closed some years ago due to lack of funding that was a little out of town with gardening and minor work with counselling and drug detox. The former worker gave a very good breakdown of what they did and why people were successful in recovery and returning to functional society and I think that was the most ideal solution for the various stakeholders.
His argument is that the current workers don't contribute anything and just take resources until dying. It's like having no bread winners then going to winners all the way down.
Other: "so, I heard you got a large donation, is that true?"
Electronic Freedom Foundation: "wow, someone is going to give us a large donation? Awesome, thanks. We really need this, everyone donates to the Electronic Frontier Foundation" .
Other: "oops, wrong guys, I meant to call Electronic Frontier Foundation, they got the large donation"
Electronic Freedom Foundation: "Fuck you!"
Well, don't equate a shitty little, inconsequential software app to a massive, highly intelligent Dev team, with life risking operations.
Who gives a fuck if your camera app crashes, you still use the shitty thing!
You kill someone in your car, they lose billions in sales.
It's equating those two things makes you one 'those people'.
Can you use specific numbers, because my impression has always been that the big three are making more and more profit than ever before?
I half believed the ongoing high prices were because government employees are on a volume discount price, so they don't get reamed like the rest of us. The other is that since they are more and more profitable, they are in a shit load of mutual funds and stuff.
Freephoneline.ca is one time payment. Haven't really experienced any issues, but dealing with sip clients and no dynamic 911, not for me.
No phone support, use their forums for help. Free calling list is fairly good. It's good to replace landlines, though.

No, I fucked up. That should have been stickshift. -automatic driver brain fail.
Fuck you firefox. (Three lines of white space) Or fuck you /.

First? Are you naive or you're just unaware of basic history?
When this letter to the paper from the former worker was printed, local politicians had a photo op saying they were giving millions to that organization, which turned out badly since the place closed like 6 years before due to lack of funding. They didn't even bother to look into this place, probably just heard about the former workers letter and missed the part where they closed for lack of funding.

What? You couldn't tell this guy is an asshole and has no intentions of donating anything? Seemed pretty clear to me.
Other: "so, I heard you got a large donation, is that true?" Electronic Freedom Foundation: "wow, someone is going to give us a large donation? Awesome, thanks. We really need this, everyone donates to the Electronic Frontier Foundation" .

I thought there was a limit on donation tax claims?

I've heard a few people who love cars and love driving poo-poo self driving cars. It's similar to, "you'll pry my clutch from my cold, dead hand".
So if I stop using my phone, my hair will grow all back and brown, right? Right?!
20 years ago, I had a full head of hair. Now I'm going grey AND bald! Thanks, now I know it was my cell phone.
You heard it here first, clothing causes cancer. The only known workaround is to be fully nude. California, you're up first.

So you get a Canadian area code with this? Otherwise, it's crappy for any local in Canada as it would be long distance to France.

Government owned Sasktel is cheapest, private is most expensive. You're not too bright, eh?
