0. Surprisingly, cards are compromised all the time. 1. Some issuers know that as many as 40% of their cards in force are actually compromised. 2. All issuers employ fraud detection systems intended to identify the first fraudulent transaction. They aren't 100% effective, but getting better. 3. EMV (chip) cards add a significantly better authentication step by verifying the physical card is in fact being used. But this does little or nothing for card-not-present (cnp) transactions, like buying from Amazon or eBay. 4. American Express probably first does the usual fraud detection, spots fraud, disabled the card, and when a new one is issued might very well already have that account under greater scrutiny, at least for a while. Maybe. 5. Some fraud may even be 'ignored' to gather more information. 6. Most importantly, however, a replacement card must be activated, acknowledging receipt by the card holder. The fraudster must also break into that process or wait for the card holder. That's weak point maybe. 7. And purchases can leave a trail.
I'm being this is not such a big deal as it seems, at and easily fixed.
I worked with TWTs in the 70s, airborne systems not space. We could admit to Ku band capabilities, and the real limiting factor we were concerned with was the high voltage required. And vibration.
Fabulous devices. Lots of power output. Ours were tough. Radar systems relied on them mostly exclusively, replacing magnetrons. Very difficult to adjust though, and a finite life.
Now, can we get cold cathode tech into 12AX7s and 6L6s?
You think that was partisan? 7 years we've had virtually no leadership in Washington. That's not limited to any single party.
I don't have anyone to vote for for federal office. No Senator, no Representative, only one Presidential candidate and I'm not hopeful he will get through the primaries and nomination process, the establishment has that well rigged.
And no, my favorite isn't who you think it is, because you're a flaming idiot. You cannot know.
"Either Obama MEANT to "dick around", as you put it, or he's COMPLETELY incompetent - as are Hillary! and Kerry, at the very least."
If you define incompetence as 'permitting your ideology to guide your actions instead of responding to the situation as it actually is', then yes, they are all incompetent.
Except for Obama. He is intentional, I believe, based on his own words and history.
You write 'we' as if 'we' can actually direct events in that region.
We could, but hat would require leadership, and that is lacking in Washington at the moment, for 7 years now, at virtually every level.
So in that region, other players will happily do what they can. Drawing us into the end game would be bad. Letting them have really effective weapons would also be bad. And hoping they would be content with destroying only their region would be bad.
Yes, and the most conflict ridden areas are the ones with resources, or the ones where the super powers have played their game. There has not been a natural nation forming process there since at least well in the 19th century.
She will never learn how to use the card reader. You are no longer her customer, or she will learn. Farmers markets around here are rife with internet and Square users.
Reloadable cards have fees, I don't want some bank skimming money from my kids allowance. I can find you a reloadable without fees.
You ever think about tipping the kid? If the system doesn't allow what, the system is deficient. PS, my type as a paper carrier barely covered my bad debts.
It will still show up in the database as adult toys What database? The ones I deal with at my work don't show that data.
What would you do it with? My mom does it with her debit card.
How does a square account help someone with no access to the internet. Again, they are not in the market for non cash, and that's a choice today. Cost benefit analysis.
- buying nuts from that odd lady on the farmer's market with the exotic nut tree She might be in need of a card reader.
- giving money as a present to your daughter, son Trivial, already done with reloadable cards
- kid's paperoutes. Um, pay in advance like reasonable people do.
- buying sextoys to spice up the relationship. The shop will be listed on your statement 'dry cleaning'. Or something innocuous, maybe a charity.
- buying generic medicines accross borders because prices are actually affordable there. You're doing this with cash now?
- donating to the homeless and less privileged. Putting cash in their cup is not necessarily the best way to help them, but a Square account would change their lives. Or donating to an organized charity. Or giving them a gift card for food. You know, being intentional.
Those who employ violence most readily to terrorize is and achieve their goals care not one bit about income inequality. They are interested only in serving their leaders who either believe their cause will result in a new Earth under their rule, or only want took subjugate all others.
"But there's plenty of Republicans who would just love to go back to having a theocracy, and they're exactly the kind of people who would love to burn "heretics" at the stake.â
This is ludicrous. I'm not at all convinced you are delusional, so you're likely just engaging in hyperbole to further marginalize those you disagree with.
" And all the people saying "Islam doesn't condone violence" are just like Christians saying that "Christianity doesn't include speaking in tongues", when there are significant sects which believe exactly that, or saying "Christians don't believe God loves rich people more" when again there's significant sects that believe exactly that (see Prosperity Doctrine). Just because *your* sect of a religion doesn't believe something doesn't mean your beliefs represent the entire religion."
Christians saying that "Christianity doesn't include speaking in tongues" don't murder those who disagree.
Saying "Christians don't believe God loves rich people more" doesn't inspire those who teach the Prosperity Doctrine to violence.
"Just because *your* sect of a religion doesn't believe something doesn't mean your beliefs represent the entire religion."
Then Islam may ave to reconcile the violent sects with the nonviolent ones, or risk being tarred with the brush of tolerance and defense.
Perhaps you should consider that Islam tolerates this violence either because it is unwilling to define its theology to deny such violence, or because it is unwilling to suffer the fate it will willingly condemn the unbeliever to. I understand fear. It cannot quite excuse inaction.

Australia isn't very welcoming to immigrants right now.
As in they didn't try at all..

Thank you for your support.

FTFY.
Many conflicted areas have nothing but tyrants.

You sir are an idiot.
You, sir, are locked in your argument.
For obvious reasons.
Which would attract the attention of other better organized thieves with three-letter names.

You think a new currency will cure income inequality? That's almost funny.
Those who employ violence most readily to terrorize is and achieve their goals care not one bit about income inequality. They are interested only in serving their leaders who either believe their cause will result in a new Earth under their rule, or only want took subjugate all others.
Do you not know this yet? Listen to them.
Whack-A-Mole project.
Pointless.
Now, hijacking them, yeah. As if the intelligence community isn't already all over this in a multitude of ways.

Ludicrous.
And your statement that ISIS mostly killed other Muslims is the point. Other Muslims don't much kill ISIS assailants.
Many Muslim nations play political games to avoid confronting violent Muslim groups such as ISIS. They should be held to account.
The Crusades were a response to the invasion of Europe and the Holy Land by...
Wait for it...
Wait...
Muslims.
