  • I worked for them a few years ago.
    Try using a browser, if that doesn’t work, clear the cache and cookies and try again. If it still doesn’t work, try a different browser (the one they’d usually recommend was Firefox). If that doesn’t work, customer service should be able to remove it for you.

    The system is dumb, the security system is automated and did weird shit at times. One of the error codes in the document we had was labelled as ‘WTF happened?’
    So yeah. PayPal are kinda wang sometimes.


  • I worked for them. I’ve seen their list of error code reasons. Literally one of the error codes you could get was labelled as ‘WTF happened?’ on the list.
    ‘Too many buckets’ was another one, that one made me laugh tbh.
    But they literally have like a 12+ page document of error codes and what they mean. The system is pretty buggy.
    But generally our solution was, clear cache and cookies or try a different browser. It 75% of the time worked. If that didn’t work, customer service could remove cards for you.



  • So long as you own their stuff. Since they pulled shit with Bethesda, I’m pretty certain we can see blizz stuff going from playstation. It only mentioned call of duty getting a 10 year promise. No mention of diablo or overwatch.

    So you’ll get to play, if you own a pc or Xbox. Microsoft can’t stand the fact Sony beat them in console sales constantly.

    I’m fully on the, this deal should have been blocked side. They’re monopolising like a toddler hording toys so nobody else can play with them.



  • That’s exactly what it is, control and surveillance. They don’t like that the public have stuff that isn’t accessable. I wonder if they’ll complain when they realise it’ll be harder for them to hide their shadiness if they get rid of E2EE. Then again, they know they’re shady, so it feels like a case of, we’re shady so you must be too. So now we want to see everything you do so we can watch and control you better.

    It’s not about the children, governments pull the children or terrorism card because people see those words and don’t think to look deeper, cause if you go against the policy you must hate children and want the country to burn!







  • COVID is still a pretty new thing. The whole shit storm was only 3 years ago. Flu has been around for fkn ages now, so it’s just a common thing. Where we can predict mutations and how they’ll effect people and spread. So it’s not really a concern, it’s just get your flu jab this year.

    Whereas we’re still researching COVID and learning about it. The mutations are different with different effects.

    Until it hits normality like flu, and predictability like flu, it’s good to keep people in the know.

    I’m thankful it’s still being reported about. As someone with a disability that weakens my immune system, I’m glad to see new vaccines or research into it. I got Omicron, thankfully I’d been vaccinated, cause even with the vaccine it sucked for me. And there was some weird AF symptoms, like the air just smelled like cheese, that one really threw me off. But had I not been vaccinated, who knows just how bad it would have gotten.

    And then there’s long COVID, we don’t get long flu. COVID had an effect on my disability and I’ve felt worse since getting it.

    So it’s not just as easy as saying but the flu. They’re two different things with different effects and predictability levels and research done into them. So instead of complaining that there’s still stuff being written about it, be thankful it’s being taken seriously so it can eventually just be a background thing that’s akin to flu.


  • You mean like how religion indoctrinates people and hides actual pedophiles while pointing the finger elsewhere?

    And the long history of abuse of children by nuns and priests in children’s homes and religious schools/ facilities?

    Being LGBT isn’t something you just wake up and choose to ‘identify’ as. You don’t wake up and decide, hey I’m gonna be gay! It’s just part of who you are.

    Religion is a choice and something that can and does indoctrinate people. Maybe look in the right direction and you’ll see who the actual bad guys are.



  • Thankfully my mum doesn’t really use her laptop much, mainly for going on Amazon or ordering her groceries. Stuff like that. She asks me questions about her phone a lot. I don’t even remember what phone she has. I just have to take educated guesses by using mine as a baseline. I guess cause I’m the oldest by like 20 years and have like 4 computers and a lot of gaming tech, she just assumed I know what I’m doing. Haha.

    Glad your mum is becoming sceptical of things online. Definitely better to be over sceptical with technology these days. I’ve shifted to Linux on everything, except my old ass MacBook which is almost dead. Too many companies out there trying to steal data and personal info now.


  • Communication isn’t my strong point. I know what I mean but often putting what I mean into words fails to get my point across. No worries. :)

    Nah, was merely stating she’s in her 50s and would probably fall for something like that. My gran was worse. Oh my days, the amount of times I had to sort her laptop for her cause she’d click sketchy links. God rest her soul. But even she understood netflix. Lmfao. I’m not really that tech savvy, but since I’m the 90s kid, I’m designated tech support.
