  @thetect0nic @NSAGov Fable being pulled down has absolutely nothing to do with the David Saks being part of Elon Musk’s Paypal mafia and the IPO of SpaceX, except for that happening on the exact same day. 🙃

  @yagihitsuji00 It looks like Melonbooks actively hunt down vpn IP, and none of both other alternatives support Paypal payment option, or anything remotely accessible to no native Japanese. Would there be an opportunity to directly Paypal you or something please ? 🙏😭

  So I found the place to sleep at 1:40 at night. Small resting place with the roof. I used the bench to lay down the sleeping bag and hide behind the table. Because on the other side there was a bigger road with the traffic. Time to time it was raining and at 4:20 something someone walked by with dogs and I got up. You can't sleep in the public when people start to walk by. It was cold and it started to rain again. I covered my body with a sleeping bag around me for over an hour before my body was ready to start moving. Then I made hot water to make a 3in1 and tactical food pack spicy noodle soup. Finally the sun was up and the energy went into my body to pack all the stuff. Now I'm writing the posts and warming myself with the sun. I'm ready to start moving and now I need to find a fuel station or Macdonald's to charge my powerbanks. I hope that one of my 25000mah powerbanks isn't broken and can be used again. I also need to find Lidl to recycle water bottles and buy new water. Still little tired but I hope to last one more day. I have no idea how far I will get today. Is it 20km or 80km or 120km. So it's hard to tell where I can stay. But I will constantly monitor the possibilities. And I need to wash my clothes. 58€ on my bank account and 15€ on PayPal. I hope that the bicycle keeps going without major issues. Although rear bike bags zippers are tiered and it is delicate job to get those bags closed. Still thinking about glass engraving and where to stay to make one. It all depends on the weather and the location. And I'm still little disappointed that YouTube algorithms and TikTok are not gaining enough followers. If I don't have more attention I won't have enough support and orders to continue the journey. I'm not sure I will get to Spain. So I reduced my goal to get to halfway at least. To 2500km entering France. Maybe I can keep going until my 40 birthday on 4th of August in France. But even for that I need to make some income. Like 520€ that I need to pay for debt payments before 22 of July. Otherwise my debt payments will be cancelled, my debt raises from 25000€ to 50000€ and my house will be taken away and sold forcefully with the small price. I tried to sell it before my journey but the co-owner stood against me. He told me he doesn't want me to sell this house and the price and conditions he offered where ridiculously low and bad for me. So let's continue!

  @TrippWahDog How did you pay them? If you paid through paypal, you can issue a chargeback.

  If you're not Indonesian, you can dm me for the price. As long qris/e-wallet/western union works, then I can accept the comms (unfortunately no paypal because I didn't have time to fix it)

  @Oneirio I've been doing commissions on VGen and then having the money from there go to my business PayPal with no issues at all. I don't think VGen requires a code anymore either?

  Can't imagine having a box of merch I'm not allowed to sell online. It's invested money you will not easily get back. Unless you attend cons, its a lot of time and work in the trash And having to issue refunds for orders on top of that... paypal takes a fat fee out of refunds

  @azutrix @PayPalIN a block with zero recent activity is almost always a linked-account flag, not something you did. paypal ties accounts by email, phone, device and bank, so if any of those ever touched another limited account it pulls yours in too. ask through the resolution center, not chat, which specific account or detail triggered it. that names the real thing to fix

  Every time you post about an issue with your vehicle, Dodge replies to your tweet with this statement, pretending to want to help. I took them up on the offer on my 2025 Charger Daytona EV. Here's what happens next: 1. You DM them, they respond two days later with a case manager 2. The case manager sends an email, no details provided, wants to schedule a call. 3. You pick up the phone when they call a week after your post, it's a guy in a call center named Gurdeep and he's a "customer support engineer" 4. Gurdeep, or whatever his name is, calls your dealership in broken English, is told to F-off by the service department. He then calls you and tells you there's nothing he can do. 5. Your dealership tells you to take your car somewhere else if you're going to whine to Dodge every time you need something fixed. Dodge/Stellantis don't actually want to improve customer experience, they just want you to think they do. Luckily, my Charger isn't my only Dodge. I have a Viper as well. If I have a problem with my Viper, here's how it gets fixed: 1. I post a picture of the problem in the Viper Club 2. Bill, retired from Team Viper, texts me and says "hey, I'm actually the one who designed & built that assembly. Let me show you how to fix it on my viper" 3. Bill sends a video of how to fix it 4. I fix it on my car 5. I send Bill $40 on PayPal as a "thank you". Bill refers me to the retired senior engineers from the Viper program to see about modifications I can make to improve reliability in my Viper past 250,000 miles.

  @poems_past Both @kick and @YouTube need to drop DSPGaming. He is a net negative for both platforms while he also encourages tipping via Paypal to avoid giving each website their deserved cut, because he's certainly not bringing in ad revenue. Man's got less than 25 actual viewers, the rest are sock accounts to fake donations. Let's flush that **** down the toilet already.

  This product has only 1 follower on IndieHackers — but the founder says it makes $3,000/month. It’s called iptvsubscription. A solo dev from India sells IPTV subscriptions (live TV over internet) for ~$10/month. No fancy tech, no big team. Just a simple reseller model. Here’s exactly how it works: • He buys bulk access from upstream IPTV providers (wholesale). • He resells individual accounts to end users at a markup. • Users get a login to watch hundreds of channels on any device. Costs are low — no servers, no infrastructure. The hard parts: • Competition is brutal. Price wars everywhere. He survives by focusing on stability (no buffering, no downtime). • Legal gray area. IPTV often involves unlicensed content. Small fish usually fly under the radar, but risk grows with scale. • Customer support is 24/7. Users expect instant help when streams break. His trust-building tactics: • Free trials first — let users test for a few days before paying. • Uses PayPal for payments, adding a layer of buyer protection. Is this for you? Barrier to entry is low. You don’t need coding skills — just find a reliable upstream supplier and learn to acquire customers. But the real challenge is trust in a scam-heavy niche. Caveat: The $3k/month is self-reported on IndieHackers, unverified. The product page is bare bones — just a line saying “because we want to provide the best service.” Still, it’s a reminder: you don’t need a flashy product. Find a small, specific need. Serve it consistently. That can be enough. Follow for more real AI money breakdowns. #IndieHackers #SideHustle

  When Elon Musk's report card is written, there will be: Co-founded online bank X. com 1999, sold to PayPal. Joined Tesla as its largest investor 2004, a year after it was founded. Founded SpaceX (Space Exploration Technologies Corporation) 2002. Acquired Twitter 2022. Founded xAI 2023. Ran DOGE 2025. DOGE shut down USAID in January and February 2025, locked employees out of their offices and cancelled contracts. Elon Musk posted, “We spent the weekend feeding USAID into the wood chipper. Could gone to some great parties. Did that instead.” Marco Rubio cut 83% of USAID programs. According to a peer reviewed study published in The Lancet, 91,839,663 deaths were avoided over a 21 year period by USAID. The Impact Counter shows the impact of the USAID shutdown frozen at the 1-year mark. 262,915 Adult Deaths and 518,428 Child Deaths. According to a peer reviewed study published in The Lancet, "Forecasting models predicted that the current steep [USAID] funding cuts could result in more than 14,051,750 (uncertainty interval 8,475,990–19,662,191) additional all-age deaths, including 4,537,157 (3,124,796–5,910,791) in children younger than age 5 years, by 2030." The 14,051,750 deaths forecast to result from USAID shutdown represented 2.34 times the 6,000,000 deaths in the Holocaust. The deaths were about 70.3% as many as the 20,000,000 estimated to have occurred in the COVID-29 pandemic. DOGE slashed the Federal workforce by 9%, but succeeded in reducing the Federal budget deficit less than one half of one percent. The Federal government is not Twitter.

  @PrettyBetrayer yeahhhh, and she's pushing blame everywhere else. Saying she's "taking accountability" but I keep seeing "my boyfriend" everywhere. The money should've never been withdrawn from PayPal, flat out. She said she transferred it because "when it's not in her bank account she gets worried about it," which is ironic since her bank account is where the issues were at.

  @sshhhrn No dumb **** what you should’ve said was oh 25 perfect I respect your prices as the seller do you want me to use Cash app Venmo or PayPal? Not going to tangent about how it used to be 10 $15 go ahead and scroll down and show the rest of the ******* messages you sent like you only again are gonna share the screenshots to share your narrative lol. Why would I give you the price that I give my regulars when you’re no longer a regular because you’ve been ignoring me for literally the last seven months because I sent you a video a day late after the two years of a consistent content that I sent you I have one bad day or something in my family happens and I can’t get you the video within two minutes and it’s a day late and this is how you act.
