Verified my wife’s phone behaves identically to mine. WiFi turned off via settings stays off after a reboot.

No, I don't have a spare phone.

I just tested this on my iPhone, and kibwen’s claim is false. The wifi remained disabled after a reboot.

Vehicular deaths are almost always under prosecuted in the US.

This does not mean that it should be legal to defraud people of billions of dollars, ruin countless lives, and harm many more.

This is a rare case where a white collar crime was appropriately punished. Sam showed no remorse, and no evidence that he would not engage in similar crimes in the future. He earned this time.

Hopefully he’ll reform and be worthy of early release; but candidly I doubt it. I think he’s irredeemable.

I have never convinced a cashier to use digits provided by me or off my phone screen. That is fundamentally different from getting them to manually enter a card.

But I understand you’re making irrelevant bad faith comments, because you’re too weak to admit that you were wrong about something unimportant.

kibwen, learn to take an L.

Because you can’t use those burner numbers to make brick and mortar purchases.

Your assertion was objectively false.

That ship had a 10,000 TEU capacity and was actually hauling a little under 5,000 TEUs. An empty container weighs a little over 5,000lbs, and a full one can be up to 67,000lbs.

If you do the math, you find that it’s just an astronomical amount of momentum, and there’s no effective defense for a bridge that needs support in more than 30 or so feet of water.

These claims are often made, but they are false.

Banks do not treat credit card customers as one uniform group, using the poor to subsidize the rich. They are multiple segments, with different business models in each segment.

High spend full pay customers provide revenue through interchange fees, marketing deals, and other sources other than interest. They are the most valuable customers, And the most obvious customer facing evidence of this is that they get the largest sign on bonuses.

My experience is that contract work like this ends up being done by ordertakers; the contractors execute the design, no matter how stupid.

Whereas, the best performing companies hire engineers who are empowered to understand the goals, understand the problem, and push back when appropriate.

The results are much better, because the people working on each system, understand it deeply and care.

A low-cost contractor isn’t allowed to care. They aren’t even allowed to talk to somebody who matters.

This is a management disgrace.
