PayPal couldn't act as an on-ramp for anything crypto because PayPal is run on soft money (reversible credit card transactions or potentially hacked bank accounts).
Allowing conversion of soft money to hard money (a btc with 6 onchain confirmations) means every criminal will use you as an on-ramp to convert their hack cc details and bank accounts into immutable hard money.
Happy to push the shopping cart thru the shop.. want a solution that can be done in any shop
Sorry, but organisations need to be held to account.
Remember when MIT media Lab gave a civil disobedience award to bethann mclaughlin for some nebulous #metoo bs who since disgraced herself by LARPing as a fake Native American academic who died of covid? https://www.sciencemag.org/news/2020/08/twitter-account-emba...
Remember when they chased Aaron Swartz to commit suicide and never gave him a civil disobedience award?
Remember their extremely close links to Jeffrey Epstein?
Sorry but MIT media Lab is absolute trash and an embarrassment to the MIT name.

Sunk half my life savings in at $16, then doubled down and sunk the rest in when it dropped to $3.
Have now bought a house each for pretty much all my close friends and family members.
It is misleading because basically every virus ever has produced some degree of immunity to reinfection.
And because saying "there is no evidence that.." is often a weazelish way that doctors with unproven prior beliefs push their personal theories.
WHO should say "there is no strong evidence either way, however based on our understanding of similar viruses there is likely to be at least some residual immunity post infection."
Tedros has apparently been on a hiring spree focused more on "representation and diversity" than competence and experience: https://www.politico.eu/article/tedros-adhanom-ghebreyesus-g...
And it's likely that the world is now paying the price for overemphasis on wokeness as well as pandering to the corrupt ccp.
The Lyme disease vaccine: "By 2001, 1.4 million doses of the vaccine had been distributed, but the FDA’s Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System only picked up on 59 reports of arthritis."
Rates of arthritis roughly at population baseline level.
People who talk about going through the motions of 2 years of animal trials have zero perspective. In wartime, this pedantry needs to be chucked our the window. Do the high yield human tests asap using heroic volunteers, and do it fast.
Yep, I subscribe to a couple of podcast patreons.. for $5 a month for 5-10 hours of good content it's a no-brainer... Patreon.com/redscare It's basically just 2 women mouthing off, it's funny though. They do well out of it.
