I'm not claiming anything. It's just really, really early after the event.
My choice of words was not ideal, and I apologize for that.
I'm just saying being unsure of what happened isn't crazy so soon after the event.
You're out here saying what is and is not likely based on your own feelings about what you feel is true.
It's simply too early to say anything definitive about what level of conspiracy existed (in the traditional sense, of more than one person, conspiring).
I am not saying this was staged. I'm saying you're jumping the gun, to say so confidently it wasn't.
I think being unsure either way makes perfect sense. You gotta admit it doesn't really line up with Trump's character to be posing for the cameras if he's actually being shot at. Though tou're not wrong to say, that that isn't proof of anything. It's subjective feeling.
But, I think saying it's entirely unlikely this was orchestrated isn't right either.
Holy balls we are living in the wild west era of the internet.
Shit needs to be regulated.
Just I'm not super confident regulation will come in the form of mandatory encryption at rest, end-to-end encryption by default and only not when necessary, banning selling data to 3rd parties, being able to quickly and speedily unban unjustly banned accounts by regulator intervention (like this one).
Terms of service are bullshit when our entire digital identities are attached to emails.
Looking around, the regulation we'll see will instead be in the form "nothing to fear if you've got nothing to hide."
To me, even if information is obtained via awful means in the past, preserving knowledge is the far better choice in all circumstances, other than in the rare occasions where it will continue hurting others (not even sure when this would be the case).
And obviously upholding moral standards for research now and in the future.
No no, I am perfectly capable and have many months worth of expenses saved, thanks. Just that there are perfectly good reasons to prefer a higher frequency.
I still prefer higher frequency, because it means I earn more interest, and can invest money earlier, also. And yes, also (not me, but others) people might have been unemployed prior to getting work, and waiting a month to get your first payment would be quite challenging.
You're giving off "everyone other than me is stupid" vibes, in which case this rule definitely applies:
If you think everyone else is an arsehole, it's probably you who are the arsehole.
Not sure why your preference for monthly payments means there must be no other valid reasons for people do have a different opinion... Jesus.
