ohhh, so a slightly different thing that is basically like a regular debit card account, but a bit more predatory? Got it. Ewww

You say this as if Granny doesn’t have tea and crumpets with the person who can sell her that tiny house every saturday. If she wants to downsize afordably, she should take it up with her ‘Golden Age Bookclub’ buddies who own all the other houses and set the market…

Most prepaid cards such as prepaid visas can be checked for free on the site, no? That has been my experience anyway…

If you can afford a second home, you can afford to pay a bit more tax on it to benefit the public good.
This part applies. It’s not about directly getting a house for the homeless in this case, it’s the fact that they can CLEARLY afford to pay more tax.
- Comment on Apple Just Proved They're No Different Than Google 1 week ago:
Oh ok, if that’s what it was actually about, I get disliking the format. But I completely agree with you about not downvoting a relevant post.
- Comment on Apple Just Proved They're No Different Than Google 1 week ago:
It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples “holier than thou” mentality more evidently true.

Thx, fixed that now!
- Comment on Breaking: Netflix has made another minor change for their subscribers. 1 week ago:
That’s why I suggested trusted vpn companies. Proton keeps no logs, so they couldn’t hand it over if they wanted to. I also suggested VPN as opposed to TOR because TOR can be fidely, and complicated because of that to a non-techy person (which is what this person had said they were). The speeds of TOR are also not good for streaming.

I beleive this is where dbzer0 would come in… So basically, you are going to want a VPN first, which they are pretty easy to get and use and there are plenty of resources online, I would suggest going for a trusted one such as Proton VPN or Nord VPN. Then as for how to actually get movies/shows, you are going to want to install firfox (if you don’t have it) and then add the ‘ublock’ extention to block popups and other nasty things. Then once you have that, you can check out the sites in our megathread, they are safe and trusted: rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv . Let me know if you need more help. :)

- Comment on Supreme Court (SCOTUS) upholds a Texas law that requires porn websites to verify that their visitors are 18 or older, rejecting a First Amendment challenge to the law 2 weeks ago:
Am I the only one who beleives that it would have been a more effective arguement to try and use the 4th amendment instead of the first? Violating free speech is just a weak claim, but “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches…” seems quite relevent here. But I am also not a lawyer.

An alien abduction, but they just want to adopt a human pet and you get food and water and shelter and have no expectations except for to lounge around and get massages (pats).
