  We are apparently dealing with the unluckiest person on the planet, aren’t we, @DmytroKotrjhd, previously @Dmitro622248? Over the past year alone, according to his own claims: - He has barely left hospitals because of severe health problems. - He allegedly suffered two strokes in March and May 2026. - Nearly every fundraiser coincided with reports of multiple KIA and WIA in his units. - His daughter supposedly needed a $25,000 eye surgery last December. - The moment I asked for proof of payment, his X account was allegedly hacked. - Four days later, his Facebook and Instagram accounts disappeared. - When donors started requesting PayPal refunds via Paypal, his PayPal account also allegedly became unavailable-along with roughly $23,000 from the latest fundraiser. I could honestly keep going. #Fellas, if you have a spare minute, light a candle and say a prayer for this man. His run of extraordinary bad luck is apparently beyond anything we've ever seen. Perhaps then he'll finally be able to refund every single penny he has collected since opening his account.

  Barrons with the Best and Worst performers of S&P500 for July. Cognizant( $CTSH) up 43% followed by $PYPL, Yes PayPal at 32% then WorkDay $WDAY at 31%. Looking through this list you guessed it right, TECH had a meltdown. The biggest decliner $SNDK down 46% followed by $GLW down 46%. Both $SNDK and $GLW would have to gain 100% to reach their ATHs for 2026. These were still up 411% and 57% for the year. If I had to wager a bet which would bounce back from here, I would bet it’s $SNDK.

  PayPal handles billions of transactions using Node.js. LinkedIn serves millions of concurrent members using Node.js Netflix manages their entire TV UI layer using Node.js But, Javascript runs on a single thread. And your Node.js server is handling 50,000 concurrent transactions right now. Tell me how?

  @druilla2ma Right… I refuse to link PayPal to anything stream related for me. They shut down accounts without any reason just because they thought you were suspicious or some bullshit. PayPal is literally so unprofessional and terrible.

  @reksmore Without integration, it just wont be done by most people. Wont take the extra steps. I myself have been locked out of paypal for over a year over a single donation of .82 and have sent in my ID to support many many times to verify and still cannot use my account. I imagine Im not the only one having problems with paypal.

They’re not even in the situation, maybe look down the ******* rabbit hole how long they’ve been doing this are they paying money to certain people on their PayPal Venmo that money certain players points 00 God I might be dead tomorrow, but there’s gonna literally go there and just go lie betting money you can’t do you can’t ******* do but the honey hole is going down. You guys are ******. Heroes is not in the Hall of Fame. That’s bullshit. Pete Rose should be in Hall of Fame. The more you did in 2030 years ******* bullshit. Have to sit here 50 years and look at this bullshit. I’m over 50 years old looking at this bullshit.

  Having had issues with Musk's former money platform (PayPal), I wouldn't touch XMoney with a barge-poll. Imagine having your funds frozen for months because AI thinks your post was "hateful" or falsely identified an image as CSAM.

  @Varies_16 It doesn't seem the case about leaving the fandom. But at least in her Twitter mentioned she had problems with her PayPal. I don't think she's bad person but kinda poor management about contacting with her clients if she had problems 😔

  @mitchellvii I lost my PayPal card because I never use it. My credit score went down one point, came back up again. I stopped using because I use Apple wallet. Also the way PayPal bills, if you do use it, is ridiculous. It is easy to forget or overlook. To me, it was just unnecessary bill to remember. I don’t miss it.

  7-Day App Store Ship Challenge Prize pot: $300 | 10 app builders | 1 clear winner Core Concept 10 independent app builders compete head-to-head. The single goal: build + ship a real, original iOS app that goes live on the Apple App Store within exactly 7 days. Only one person can win the entire $300 pot. No points system, no fancy features required — pure speed-to-live-app wins. Exact Winning Condition (so only one person wins) Build any original simple app (todo list, habit tracker, tip calculator, unit converter, etc. — nothing complex). Submit it to App Store Connect. Get it approved and publicly live on the App Store. Be the first participant to post public proof in the group chat/Discord:Live App Store link Screenshot of the app page showing “Available on the App Store” Timestamp of approval email from Apple First verified live app = automatic winner of the full $300. If two people go live on the same day, the earlier approval timestamp wins. If somehow nobody succeeds in 7 days → pot rolls over or is split equally (your choice). 7-Day Timeline Day 0 (kickoff): Everyone pays entry + gets Apple Developer account ready ($99/year required). Days 1–5: Build + test + prepare screenshots, privacy policy, description. Day 6: Latest possible submission deadline (gives Apple ~24–48 h review window). Day 7 (midnight UTC): Competition ends. First verified live app wins. Entry & Pot Rules Exactly 10 spots. Each person puts in $30 → $300 pot. Money collected upfront (PayPal/Wise/crypto) into a shared escrow or trusted organizer account. No refunds after Day 0. Money Payout Terms (clear & simple) Winner must provide: Live App Store link Apple approval email screenshot Short screen recording of the app opening from the App Store Once verified by the group (or 2 neutral judges): Full $300 is sent within 24 hours via the same method the winner prefers (PayPal, Wise, bank, USDC, etc.). Organizer takes $0 cut. If the winner used a no-code tool or template, it still counts as long as the app is original and live under their account. Suggested Simple Apps That Can Actually Ship in 7 Days Daily water tracker Random quote / affirmation generator Tip & bill splitter Simple habit streak counter Unit converter (weight, length, temperature) Use SwiftUI + Xcode (fastest for pure iOS) or Flutter if you already know it. Avoid anything that needs backend, login, or heavy graphics. Extra Protection Rules App must be original (no copy-paste of existing public apps). Must use your own Apple Developer account. No paid marketing or fake reviews during the 7 days.
