Then you tell them you will call them back, hang up, call the bank yourself and do it that way. If they are legit, they can tell you their name and extension and you can verify that is even real when you personally call the bank.
I literally don’t understand the people downvoting you. There’s a whole reason IT exists because people are fucking stupid and do stupid shit with their freedoms. This, in turn, can really hurt others (viruses, worms, botnets, etc) and opening things up really just means larger attack spaces with many more vectors for entry.
I understand the wallet holding aspect, but we should be expecting informed decisions from consumers. Doesn’t the whole of Lemmy bitch about what we’ve done here in America because of being uninformed? Same principles apply to even lesser things like tech.
So, they (the Russians being investigated) likely had ties to Trump, Musk, or both? Get rid of her and dismantle the investigations with Trump’s own appointee, plus it installs another for his side.
Well, if you truly do know them - let them know it was noticed and some of us do hope they are ok. A break or a full breakup is totally justified. I just don’t want to see people hurt or hurting.
I’m not sure what you’re arguing or trying to say here.
My family is quite left and my child constantly stands up for kids who are different. In summer he always does a lemonade stand to donate to a charity of his choice and has been doing this for about 5 years now. He’s raised money and donated 100% to GLSEN, refugees (like UNHCR), a local charity that helps provide toys and needed goods for children, a cancer research group, and more.
None of that is stuff we pushed him into. He is just that kind of a person and has been consistently. He fights the good fight, we support him, and we try to help others when we can.
If you’re arguing that I should be out there causing disturbances, then I’d just like to ask what exactly you are doing in the same vein?
That works as well. I was going to delete my Facebook but decided posting things supporting minorities and other groups while being an annoyance to the right was more important.
I have a child. I’d rather not screw his life for an ideal where I alone will have minimal/no real impact. I am indeed in a better position than most though and I fully admit that.
Oh, we are? Is that why everyone other than hetero white males is getting mentions removed or protections gutted and/or removed? What part of the constitution that provides rights to all Americans is in play when this is happening? Go ahead, I’ll wait…
Trump has support in all levels of government, and a great amount of it too. This didn’t happen just overnight in Jan of 2025. Biden had opposition who would hold him accountable for dictator stuff (as well as supporters who would hold him accountable depending on what he did) but Trump now has a larger support base to pull off his shit because control at the top is across his party.
That’s why Biden couldn’t do it but Trump can. It’s bullshit and we know it, but no one (including myself) is willing to revolt the way we should yet. We’re all worried about covering our own butts because the system we’ve grown up with is still mostly here so there is still hope that we can change it via our system. We may very well regret this later though.
As a former SEO practitioner, it doesn’t work like that at all. SEOs can’t just bury something.
If anyone wants to bury a page—it’ll be Google, Bing, DDG, etc themselves tweaking their algorithm. SEOs have fuck all to do with that. All most SEOs do is try and analyze search patterns and make content relevant for keywords or ensure the page is discoverable/usable by both people and crawlers. Black hats will do more, but they are not industry standard or even close to a plurality of SEOs as a job.
Then you tell them you will call them back, hang up, call the bank yourself and do it that way. If they are legit, they can tell you their name and extension and you can verify that is even real when you personally call the bank.
