Got ripped off on an online purchase over the holidays for about $44.00
Sent dispute to bank/visa.

Bank disputes my dispute and rejects. Just got off the phone to learn the person who reviewed my dispute lied about the answers I provided in their dispute form as cause to reject the dispute.

Now, they've breached the state consumer protection act.

They're under threat of litigation if they don't return the money, which, is no idle threat.

Why would I go to these lengths over $44.00?

Because I'm SICK AND FUCKING TIRED of living in a #corporate dystopia and will drag the money out of them NO MATTER WHAT!!! Have fun paying your attorney's thousands of dollars over a $44.00 dispute because your corporate policy is to screw over your own clients to enrich your shareholders.

Good morning 😘

For #RRS on #Android I just switched from Readrops to #CapyReader. It both is able to sync with #FreshRSS server, but Capy's UI better suits my needs.

Reeddrops looks fine, but it feels kind of wrong when using it. Especially in article listings. It seems like they use wrong UI components for the task.

Capy's UI feels less cluttered, more text focused. I better orient in the article titles. So far good work @_jocmp 👍️

You know, I keep hearing people say that it takes a certain kind of person to learn to code, and I just can’t accept that in my reality. I believe that anyone can learn how to code. It just involves finding out how coding can work for the problems you are trying to solve, or how you want to create something from nothing. It will even make you a better vibe coder.

I occasionally use the scanner on mine and want to have one with a scanner. I wonder if there's something I should upgrade to, though. I have an HP, and I didn't realize it at the time, but people tell me that HP isn't a very good brand these days. And mine has trouble fetching the paper and tends to complain that it is out of paper even though I have paper in the tray. And I run out of ink even though I rarely use it, but, still, it's convenient not to have to run out to the store on the rare occasion that I need to print something. Sorry--this probably has very little to do with your post.

The FreeBSD Foundation announced they're funding development of a new agentic AI based on an Alibaba model which will run in your kernel called Kirk.

There will be no way to remove it from the OS beginning with FreeBSD 16.0, because this model is completely replacing the TCP/IP stack and the CPU scheduler. All of these decisions will now processed by Kirk. Instead of being based on the time-tested monolithic kernel design, this will be the beginning of a new era of hybrid-cystolithic kernels.

Aujourd'hui on a vu les premiers gens avec le drapeau iranien à #Strasbourg. Bien sûr qu'on leur a exprimé notre soutien. Beaucoup parmi eux ne parlent pas français, le monsieur à qui je parlais comprenait l'anglais.
Il y aura une manif le 19 janvier près du Parlement Européen. si vous êtes vraiment pour les droits humains, si vous tenez vraiment à la liberté d'un peuple d'élire son gouvernement et lutter pour son propre avenir dans un pays civilisé, venez-y ! #Iran
