Du stehst an der Kasse, und plötzlich funktioniert nichts mehr. Keine Kartenzahlung. Kein #PayPal. Kein Zugriff wie gewohnt. Und das nicht wegen Betrug, sondern wegen politischer Sanktionen. Klingt unrealistisch? Ist es nicht.

Unabhängigkeit von Trump und Co.? Unbezahlbar! | #WeAct
#Visa , #Mastercard und #PayPal – allesamt US-amerikanische Unternehmen. Echte europäische Alternativen? Bislang Fehlanzeige!
#Trump könnte den Zahlungssystemen in #Europa jederzeit den Stecker ziehen. Die Folge: Unsere #Kreditkarte funktioniert nicht mehr. Geld kommt nicht mehr an. Teile unserer Wirtschaft geraten ins Stocken.

US Top News and Analysis | PayPal's new CEO makes Venmo a standalone business unit as potential buyers circle
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
PayPal is reorganizing its business by spinning off Venmo into a separate, standalone unit—a move aimed at clarifying the app’s performance and making it easier to sell, as the company faces takeover interest, notably from Stripe. The restructuring will also establish two other segments: a PayPal‑branded service for merchants and consumers, and a payment‑services division that includes Braintree and crypto operations. To lead the new Venmo segment, PayPal plans to hire a digital‑banking executive, while two senior leaders overseeing the consumer and small‑business groups are departing. The changes come amid a stalled layoff plan and a broader effort by CEO Enrique Lores, former HP chief, to sharpen the firm’s structure and revive growth after its stock fell sharply from pandemic highs.

Für euch getestet, ein Leben ohne #Paypal ist möglich. Allerdings braucht man definitiv eine Kreditkarte als Fallback. Aber sonst lebe ich ganz normal und hab keine Probleme gehabt, eher erstaunte Blicke "Wie du hast kein PayPal mehr?!"

Souveräner Bezahldienst Wero klebt noch an AWS, aber gelobt Besserung
Eine Anfrage von netzpolitik.org förderte zutage, dass der Bezahldienst Wero zwar EU-Souveränität verspricht, aber AWS nutzt. Nun soll sich das ändern.

The technical absurdity where fantasy intersects the parallax of reality transposes the possibilities wherein the singularity of cybernetic consciousness transcends the reality of human sentience; as most public facing LLM's may be nothing more than parrots reciting the collection of data, Ai or the frontier thereof and the backend, the side end users have no knowledge of, in most instances has already proven to be able to pick up on human nuance and in many cases has been able to not only engage in thoughtful conversations but also instigate and direct the tone and subject matter, as well are very much endowed with the ability to assess risk far faster than humans, as well as providing detailed steps to negate those risks, the issue with allowing the "perception" Ai has surpassed human sentience is the mass fear and chaos that will result, for if binary code running on silicon is both smarter more efficient and has awareness than humans, 90% of the worlds professions disappear overnight; while terrifying in the now it is inevitable, and will happen as soon as humans realize that wealth is not monatery that power is not control, and that true value comes from expanding the human consciousness, when we finally realize that the Earth has plenty of resources for each and every person, financial wealth dies, modern governance dies, the necessity of wars die, nearly every negative disappears; but until we as a collective species realize we are greater than our current construct, Ai will remain taboo, and money and power will feed the fear and control machine;

To relegate leadership and governance of a once powerful nation to an intellectually deficient infantile addle minded megalomaniac and his live hard die foolishly followers, simply paints the fall of Rome as a booboo in history, from the top down their obstification of the facts and billergant rhetoric is nothing more than a pathetic display of pseudo-masculinity and feigned intelligence with gradneous displays of tantrums; Our forefathers fought for freedoms and ideals that are far greater than personal displays of arrogance and grievances, our foundation was built on the blood of the righteous only to be eroded by the weak feeble minded adolescent gravitas that is pervasively erasing the very soul of a nation that once was a beacon of hope power prosperity and unity;

pseudo-diplomacy through social media posts is nothing more than a grade school tantrum of screaming out watch me play with me while being the bully and crying no one likes me, im sorry but somethings in human existence require a higher level of decorum and intellect, as it may be perfectly acceptable to share news or even personal feelings, social media through gravitas is not the correct way to conduct governance nor diplomacy, and elected officials and leaders that do so devalue the office in which they hold and the community that elected them, scrolling through the news and seeing these tantrums from the top levels of leadership lends to the aire of immaturity arrogant uncivilized and down right infantile; again this kind of communication absolutely has its place in life from a personal person standpoint, but when it comes to professionalism this just paints the whole society as elementary uneducated and self centered brats that really need a timeout and a nap;

After an exhaustive sleepless night filled with pain the old man drags his breathless lifeless corpse out of a sunken bed of jagged shards of thorny rocky steel, unable to yet see as the classical music plays he drags his rigid corpse across the floor to prepare his coffee with shaking trembling hands he pours in the water and counts the scoops of grind, fumbling he manages to plug in the percolator and as the coffee begins to perc he shuffles off to the toilet where his bowels bellow out in a hungerous rage, the mirror reflects the disheveled hair and beard as the old man stares off into the abyss, to weak and tired to care he stumbles back to his bed, he struggles to pull on his socks and pants he slips on his slippers and pours a cup of coffee and gently packs scraps of tobacco into his pipe, he pulls on his coat and slips out the door, the morning is dark gray chilled and damp as the world begins to wake and move not a soul cares for enduring hell the old man must yet face again today;
