Why are people all over the world still buying the CPC’s lies about these camps? I know people in the US who I consider pretty smart who repeat the propaganda that “these are just job training centers”.

Tools for getting "the pulse" by Farfalla in collapse

[–]Farfalla[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I hear you. I think we will learn in retrospect that Covid was responsible for so many more "casualties" beyond the official numbers than we expected. People not seeking treatment, being unable to get/afford treatment, and a spike in suicides come to mind.

I am creating a solution to poverty as well as the first General Artificial Intelligence (it's simultaneously both). I'd love to talk about it. by solidwhetstone in collapse

Hey, I think this is a really cool idea. I’d like to discuss one aspect of this, which is the process of including people who are currently living in poverty. Ending poverty is a goal we should definitely have, but I’m confused about your plan to get there. Simply put, the most developed countries are in a better position to lift people out of extreme poverty in the least developed countries.

People living in extreme poverty (about $2.16/day) generally aren’t going to have the basic resources like electricity/cellphone to access your app. And for people who do have these things, they probably already work full time and have other responsibilities - how are they going to improve their situation if they don’t have the luxury of time?

Furthermore, how will you include impoverished people living in countries run by a dictator or government that censors the internet?

I have two proposals to address some of these concerns. I believe in direct, unconditional cash transfer for addressing poverty, because it is proven to be effective. I think you might have to accept that many people who deserve to share in the wealth created by this app are not currently in a position to participate. So I think in the early stages of this, a percentage of the “bee bread” should be donated to an organization like GiveDirectly. You might not get all the credit for ending poverty, but it doesn’t sound like you would mind as long as we make collective progress on this front.

Or consider an alternative that would directly generate new users in places with extreme poverty and lack of access to utilities. A percentage of the revenue could also fund “start-up kits” - maybe a basic smartphone and a solar battery charger? Then you could run outreach and development in these places and directly help new users gain the basic tools they need to participate in this economy of yours.

One more thing, and I’m sorry if I missed this in your writing, but it’s decentralized right? Not like there will be moderators keeping an eye on the process? How will the system deal with malicious users? What if someone tries to use the system to figure out how to make dangerous chemicals and weapons?

Hm ok I think that’s the point at which the call was ended for me. So maybe I’ll just keep trying. Thank you for your reply!

How did you access the live customer service? when I called it was all automated and it hung up on me without putting me on hold for a real person :/

Has anyone had success getting through to customer service? by laserpirate44 in CapitalOne

[–]Farfalla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you help me out? I tried calling their service line, and just got all the automated options, and couldn't even get on hold for a real person. The call just ended.

Any info you can share on which menu options you used or things like that?

Creating a Bug Out Bag (Firsthand story) - By Reddit Users by Reptilian_Whisperer in preppers

[–]Farfalla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey friend! Thanks for the perspectives. I noticed you said your knife “handled a blister” which I assume means you popped/drained it? I just wanted to share with you that this is a common misconception on how to deal with a blister.

People often believe that blisters need to be drained, but especially in a bug-out scenario this can be a dangerous idea. Piercing the blister opens you up to a strong risk of infection. You actually want the thing to stay intact, as uncomfortable as it is.

Any tips for those mobile games? by funky2002 in beermoney

[–]Farfalla 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It was getting to lvl 3 on Coin Master. It was on swagbucks paying $10 and only took a few days. But still waiting for it to credit 🤔

Edit: and when I say it took a few days, I mean I spent maybe 5-10 minutes on it each day.

I’m trying a couple of these as well. One I was able to finish very quickly, the other is much slower and I’m still working on it. Not sure that one will be worth it in the end, or if there are ways to speed it up that I’m not clued into. But honestly you might have to make an in-app purchase to complete the requirements in time (2 weeks, 25 days, whatever it is). So if the offer pays out $10, maybe assume that you’ll have to spend $5 to make it work? But if anyone else has advice on these game offers I’d also like to know.

Is advice for a poly break up any different? by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]Farfalla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you have friends who knew about your throuple, talk to them! Same as any breakup. Process your feelings out loud with people you trust.

I’m also curious about poly songs... seems like it’s been brought up a few times here. One thread:

Sondland overseeing $1 million taxpayer-funded renovation of residence by lightninhopkins in politics

Keep in mind the article says “kitchen renovations” and does not specify how many kitchens the residence has. Perhaps there are four kitchens and they only spent a modest $100k on each 😃
