possibly get $125 from the dumb asses at equifax
https://www.theverge.com/platform/amp/2019/7/26/8932398/equifax-settlement-125-claim-wont-get-money-alternative-reimbursement-compensation But the likelihood that you’ll actually get a check for $125 is increasingly slim — because the more people who sign up, the less money each person gets. In fact, there’s only room for 248,000 people to get that amount. See, while Equifax has agreed to a $700 million settlement — compare to its revenue of $880 million last quarter alone— it’s technically only a $425 million settlement as far as affected consumers are concerned, with the rest of the money going to pay penalties. And of that $425 million, it turns out only a paltry $31 million is actually set aside for those individual $125 cash payments — the rest is all for free credit monitoring, reimbursements, or if you could somehow miraculously prove you actually suffered identity theft as a result of the breach.

I can’t decide which part of that tweet was my favorite: the insinuation that rappers only matter to black Americans or ignoring another country’s sovereignty and litigating the release of Kanye West’s friend over Twitter. This might be Trump’s opus.

That’s just what he wants you think, but after discovering his sock account named Jimmy Dickfingers, the evidence is incontrovertible.

Pretty obvious why Johnny Sack chose that name.

Anyone familiar with this? It’s first I’d heard of the concept. Our resident commercial drivers have any thoughts? https://www.fastcompany.com/90377949/airlines-are-finally-fixing-the-middle-seat

Austin Transportation & Roadways
The mention of a downtown station got me intrigued until I looked it up: it’s a glorified bus stop. It’s a concrete platform with some awnings. What am I missing here?

Ghislaine "Sgt. Schultz" Maxwell: "I know NOTH-ING"
If this pulls in Trump, how long before the right starts pretending the word “tween” always meant “that age between 18-20.” Also, will they keep a straight-face when saying shit like, “Yeah, he was 60 and she was barely 16, but it wasn’t illegal. brb. Going to church.”

Solid post. I’d bet housious, like Iconoclast, Johnny Sack, slorch, and Tahoe, is both a coward and a liar, and won’t be back to respond to you.

Not sure I buy this as it seems to require Trump to have insightful self-awareness.

Now, hang on: let’s not get too hasty here. There’s the potential for a deal. What if AOC and the others counter-offered to say they would accept only if Iconoclast has to go back to his original country, too?

Which goes to my earlier comment: fuck Ajit Pai. This dude could put the screws to telecoms to spend that money, but he doesn’t.

I average about 10 robocalls per day and have for the last year or 18 months, but that last couple weeks have really seen an uptick. To wit, I’m at 67 since Monday. - 99% of them occur between my local business hours - The numbers used to closely mimic my own, but that’s declined over the recent months - The area codes used to be almost exclusively 512 (same as mine); now the majority still are, but others from Minnesota, Florida, South Dakota, Iowa, North Carolina, and New York have started; the area codes don’t change when I’m traveling, as has been reported by other robocall recipients - The 512 numbers tend to report being from Thrall, Burnet, Buchanan Dam, Taylor, Wimberly, Martindale, or Jarrell - Robocall blocking apps are trash and don’t really work - Fuck Ajit Pai
