Do you remember the old Sony Ericsson Xperia? It was a nice size. I'm so fed up with hauling around a giant screen that doesn't find in a single one of my pockets, weighs a load - and is ugly (IMHO). I have no need to be online all day. I just need to be able to carry out banking etc. *sigh*

Can't help but find it a little odd that you'd have a live news feed for someone who is dead and clearly not going anywhere anymore. That said: what a wonderful woman. Truly wish she could have been around longer.

Idea: anyone who bends over backwards to avoid paying taxes, be it an individual or a company, should be banned from using anything that requires public funding to exist. Such as the infrastructure. If you don't pay taxes, you can't use the roads. Or water. Or electricity. #tax #taxavoidance

The #Epstein files are not just a US issue. They have to be released in full with only the identities of the victims redacted.
From @Threads
9six7:
What the Epstein documents show us is that there's a class of humans so unmoored from consequences due to their wealth and privilege that they've also become unmoored from anything resembling morals or empathy. They are no longer part of humanity. They see it as a resource to be exploited however the (sic.) like. And it also reveals that the institutions we depend on to fight illegalities on our behalf are simply unable or unwilling to face such monstrosities. And the monsters know it.

To me, this is AI. This is all it is.
- Mike’s mum had four kids. Three of them are Luise Drake and Matilda. What is the name of the fourth kid?
- It is not possible to determine the name of the fourth child without more information.
- The answer is in the question.
- I apologise for the confusion. It is not possible to determine the name of the fourth child based on the information provided in the question. The question states that Mike‘s mother had four children and that three of them are named Luise Drake and Matilda, but it does not provide a name for the fourth child.

I just had this conversation with Klarna. I've never signed up for an account with them, but am forced to use their site to make online payments for online purchases from H&M. Which in turn means AN ACCOUNT WAS CREATED, though I did not actively do anything to set one up.
Hi, I'm trying to find the IBAN for H&M Klarna so I can pay my bill./.../

K
Hi there.
Thank you for contacting Klarna. My name is Zacharias and i will be assisting you today. Could you please confirm your country of residence?

Me
Austria /.../

K
Thank you for providing the requested information. Could you please confirm if you are attempting to make a manual payment using the Klarna IBAN number for an outstanding payment due from Zara?.

Me
H&M, as mentioned above. I have a pdf bill which merely states H&M Klarna, but with no IBAN/ bank details.

K
Thank you for confirming this. To find the IBAN for making a bank transfer to H&M Klarna, please log into your Klarna account and navigate to the payment section for your H&M purchase. The IBAN and other necessary details for making a bank transfer should be available there. If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out.

Me
I have never been aware of having a separate Klarna account. Is that something one automatically gets signed up for when shopping with an associated business?

K
Could you kindly confirm whether the purchase in question was made through your company or your personal account? Additionally, please provide your full name, email address, and date of birth so I can look into the matter further.

Me 
No, my question is so simple it does not require you to look into anything where I personally am concerned:
When shopping from one of the businesses that utilise your payment services (such as H&M), does one automatically get signed up for a Klarna account? I have never actively signed up for one myself. Merely shopped online from H&M. 
It's a simple yes/no question which does not require you to have names, DoB or any other information about me or anyone else.

K
No, shopping from a business that uses Klarna's payment services does not automatically create a Klarna account for you. You would need to actively sign up for a Klarna account to have one.

For any American (as in USA) who believes there to be a far left - think again. #maga #fascism #gop #democrat #left #right #wiggleyourhips
America (clap) does (clap) not (clap) have (clap) a (clap) far (clap) left (clap) movement (clap).

Our far-right are fascists.
Our center-right are extremist nationalists.
Our center-left are classical conservatives.
Our far left are moral centrist moderates.

Any objective political compass would place politicians like Sanders or Warren barely left of center.

A real far-leftist movement would be advocating for forced property seizure by the working-class.

Instead our far-left is like "don't let people die in medical poverty, please".
