I don’t get that mindset. Why is it ok to shoot through people to get to the bad guys?

If the police did that when criminals took hostages it wouldn’t be acceptable so why is it acceptable for Israel?

They are responsible for their own votes but if the politicians aren’t able to sell their ideas then the blame is also on them.

I blame Brexit on those that voted leave but I also blame the remain campaign for sleepwalking into the Brexit referendum and not doing enough to counter the leave campaign’s lies.

Once they pay that fine, Russia will be sorted.

Yes.

Unfortunately, those solutions aren’t acceptable because we have to think about the shareholders and the politicians who like the lobbying money.

At this point climate scientists are like the boy who cried wolf except there’s a huge fucking wolf that everyone can see but nobody wants to admit to in case they are asked to pay to find a solution.

It shocked me decades ago when I joined Facebook and they suggested friends that I thought that I had zero connection to on the internet.

e.g. my next door neighbour even though I didn’t put my address in and only knew them for a quick chat over the fence.

Now they’ll have so much info about people who’ve never dealt with them due to them being able to slurp up everyone’s contacts with WhatsApp (I have no idea how they can do that in a GDPR compliant way).

I bet that the EU wishes that they’d added clauses to allow members to be booted out.

I wasn’t correcting you. They are registered in the EU but not in the UK as far as I can tell and these complaints are from people in the UK. Maybe they have been approved but not completed the process yet.

Here is their page on the FCA https://register.fca.org.uk/s/firm?id=001b000002zyAwNAAU and it says under activities and services that they are registered for payment services and e-money but it doesn’t say that they do banking. It also says that they are not covered by the financial services compensation scheme.

If you look at the page for Barclays Bank (https://register.fca.org.uk/s/firm?id=001b000003WgItdAAF) you can see that it says that they do banking and are covered by the scheme.

But whether they are a bank or not, they definitely failed in their fraud prevention duties when they failed to detect and block 137 transactions to three new contacts in an hour.

They aren’t a bank in the UK.

This article from about a week ago says that another guy was scammed and the scammers set up three new payees and made 137 payments totalling £165,000 within an hour to those payees. That definitely looks suspicious and should have been blocked.

Also, that victim tried to contact Revolut but they don’t have a fraud phone line and the only way to contact them is by sending messages from within the app and it took nearly 25 minutes for him to get the account frozen. That simply isn’t good enough.

Finally, that article says that Revolut has more reports of fraud against them than any other bank having 25% more than the next highest bank.

Because people are stupid and gullible and need protecting.

Revolut should be watching for suspicious transactions and blocking them like proper banks are required to do.

If we could have opted out of migration rules then Brexit might not have happened.

He’s supposed to be opening another golf resort so maybe he’ll come for the grand opening and we can nab him then.

I used to use a custom DNS solution using Amazon Route 53 (which I already used for my websites) and a Let’s Encrypt certificate. It worked ok but was pretty technical to set up.

Then I switched ISP and the new one doesn’t allow incoming connections by default so I use Nabu Casa. It was super simple to set up and works perfectly and, imo, well worth the cost.

There is a red line. The west keeps saying over and over again that they must defend themselves within international law.

The problem is that they either ignore the red line or deny that it was ever crossed.

Well, we wouldn’t want them to run out I guess. /s

It is stupid, yes, but they wouldn’t be able to do that anyway.

I’m fairly certain that the article is using the wrong term here and the problem is that the name Skywalker is trademarked.

You wouldn’t be able to trademark the name Jane Doe so you wouldn’t be able to prevent someone from using it.

Maybe it’s not changed then because I was using it in the early 2000s. 😀

We used to use Redmine and it was a fantastic piece of software.

Gaza disarmed? I don’t even know what that means, but whatever.

You can’t just “but whatever” that. How Israel defines that term is very important.

How is it to be verified that they are disarmed? How long do they need to remain disarmed for? Presumably, forever.

How do you verify that they stay disarmed?

It sounds like permanent occupation to me.

the people doing the detonating had visual confirmation of the targets not being in close proximity to civilians

Or even had the pager at all instead of leaving it at home where their kids could get hold of it or a fire could be started.
