2024.05.17 22:43 RedditExplorer89 Meta: r/changemyview is recruiting new moderators

It's that time of the year folks. We're looking to expand our team of volunteers that help keep this place running (if you're wondering why an obvious rule-breaking content is still up, its because we are falling behind in our work queue at the moment - apologies). If you're passionate about changing views through thoughtful discourse, what better way can there be to contribute to that than help to keep a community like this as a smoothly oiled machine? We're not looking for a fixed number of new moderators, generally we like to take things by eye and accept as many new mods as we have good applications. Ideal candidates will have...
Please do note though:
Moderating this subreddit is a significant time commitment. It's rewarding and in my opinion very worthy work, but please only apply if you are actually ready to participate.
Thank you very much for making this community great. The link to the application is here

2024.05.17 22:37 ppistor Seeking Feedback: Building a turnkey linking integration for NetSuite

Hello netsuite community,
I'm currently exploring the idea of developing a system similar to Plaid Link, but tailored specifically for NetSuite (and eventually other ERPs). The goal is to create a seamless, secure, and efficient way to connect and integrate NetSuite with a third-party application or a custom solution.
Key features would be setting up the integration, roles, token based authentication, user-event scripts and every other permission needed for building a netsuite integration. So many integration projects require manual setup from a technical account manager which can hinder adoption and make building even a simple sync painful. Any personal struggles you've had with the Netsuite API and developer tooling would be appreciated as well.
Does something like this exist already and if it doesn't how does your organization solve this problem currently? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

2024.05.17 22:26 pinkvirginiaslims What are my chances of landing this job?

Small bit of context -
A hiring manager based at my old employer posted a job opening on LinkedIn a month ago. I reached out to him shortly after with a friendly note and heads-up that I submitted an application for the role. I left my old employer on good terms and have been interested in going back for a little while now.
The HM put me straight into an interview loop which luckily was run by people on his team that I know and have had good working relationships with before. I thought the interviews went well. My final round interview was this Monday with the HM. He mentioned towards the end of our chat that he would be "submitting my name as a candidate we should hire," but that the final decision depends on the collected feedback from my other interviews. I took this as a really good sign and assumed I'd hear back a day or two later. He seemed really happy with me and my interview.
I reached out to the HM on LinkedIn two days later with a friendly note and a 'thank you' for the interview experience. I also asked about the expected timeline for candidates to hear back about results. He says "I am reviewing the choices with the recruiter and will get back to you within a few weeks."
I am now second-guessing the strength of my chances to get hired for this team. The company I used to work at has a tendency to get back to candidates quickly with hiring results, although I understand every team and process is different. How would you interpret this situation and does it sound like I have a strong chance of getting hired?

2024.05.17 22:25 hyperpanther Google Wants 14 More Days For Production Testing

Google Wants 14 More Days For Production Testing
About 2 months ago, I opened a Google Play developer account and uploaded my first app a month ago. For production, Google asked me to test the app with 20 testers for 14 days. I managed to find 20 testers with some difficulty and had my app tested.
After 14 days, Google said today that they rejected my application for production. I have to test my app with at least 20 testers for another 14 days. There is no feedback regarding the app.
I developed the app with Flutter, so I can publish it for both iOS and Android. 2 weeks ago, I created an Apple developer account within a day and uploaded the app to the App Store the next day. The same day, my app was tested and approved for production.
While Apple can complete this process in 1 day, Google wants me to spend 28 days just testing the exactly same app.
This is a great injustice. I am placing the App Store link to the app below. You can view the app's screenshots there. It is a functional and well-designed app. I think Google wants to eliminate indie developers like me. What do you think? Has anyone experienced this issue before? https://apps.apple.com/app/timeflies-date-trackeid6502229277

2024.05.17 22:21 future_flora TikTok Shop Affiliate Community Discussion: 1k Following Eligibility, "Creator Compliance" Account Bans, Workaround Method, Losing Access to Affiliate Marketplace

We do not allow discussion of how to get into the TikTok Shop Affiliate Program or anything regarding account creation in this community. HOWEVER, you all seem intent on having a discussion. Please have a discussion in this post. Any other posts will be removed and re-directed here.
Important notes: any comments mentioning account buying or "getting around" policy will be removed. I, myself- have not had an account banned, I am just an Affiliate, I can only speculate/take others at their word/what they have shown me, and what is stated here today (May 17th) could change tomorrow... this program is FAST changing.
CONTEXT: "Workaround" account (skip over if you're already informed)
CONTEXT: Workaround/Seller accounts losing access to the Affiliate Marketplace (skip over if you're already informed)
CONTEXT: "Creator Compliance" Account Ban (skip over if you're already informed)
Now, let's get into it. ⬇️
Has the requirement for getting into the TikTok Shop Affiliate Program changed from 5k following down to 1k following?
Why in the world would TikTok Shop update all of their TikTok Shop Affiliate Policies, do a Creator Compliance ban wave, remove a bunch of workaround/Seller accounts' access to the Affiliate Marketplace .....then turn around right after all of that and lower the requirement to get into the TikTok Shop Affiliate Program from 5k down to 1k following?
I had an account banned (reached 24 points+) and/or I was one of the people swept up in the "Creator Compliance" Account Ban wave that happened early this month (May)... can I eventually get into the US TikTok Shop Affiliate Program with my same account after 90 days, if I reach 1k following? What if I make a new account before the 90 days and that reaches 1k following?
None of my accounts were banned, but I do have a workaround account (or Seller account) that lost access to the Affiliate Marketplace... what should I do?
I have a workaround account (or Seller account) that lost access or has NOT lost access to the Affiliate Marketplace... but it has over 1k followers... what should I do?
How do I get to 1k followers in a way that stays within policy?

2024.05.17 21:59 socialspider9 ESA Letter and Rental/Employment Accommodations

I (31F) have an ESA (50 lb mixed-breed dog) to help manage my generalized anxiety disorder. Before adopting my pup (~ 3 years ago), my therapist and I discussed adopting an ESA extensively, and my ESA has certainly vastly improved my day-to-day life. However, I don’t yet have an official ESA letter for her as the apartment I live in allows pets, and I didn’t need any other accommodations at the time. However, I have some big life transitions looming (moving out of state, new job, etc.), and I’m starting to experience some… anxiety about the challenges associated with an ESA while navigating these changes. I have a few questions about acquiring letters and rental/employment accommodations, and I’d appreciate advice from other ESA owners in how you’ve navigated these challenges. Links to online resources with definitive information are always greatly appreciated.
For acquiring a letter, I’ve heard mixed things about who is eligible to provide a letter – can my therapist (MS, MC, PPS, LMFT) write one for me or do I need to go through a primary care physician or other medical provider? Are there any resources for the information that should be included in the letter that I can share with my provider, to ensure approval?
For renting, I will of course seek pet-friendly rentals when possible, but they are few and far between these days, and it seems that discrimination against ESAs is rampant. For rental advertisements that state “no pets”, do you have to disclose an ESA to the landlord at any point, and if so, when? It seems like it would be easy for landlords to discriminate against ESAs listed on rental applications, but the discrimination would obviously be hard to prove. On the other hand, I don’t want to put myself in a position where my new landlord is retaliating against me because I didn’t disclose an ESA on the application. Any advice/legal documentation to keep in my back pocket while navigating these kinds of issues are appreciated!
For employment – what are the kinds of “reasonable accommodations” that some of you have gotten from your employers? For example, are “remote/hybrid work (when possible)” or “bringing the ESA to work” reasonable requests?
Thanks in advance for any advice/resources you can share!

2024.05.17 21:53 UniversalSurvivalist What does MK Ultra, 'You'll own nothing and be happy' WEF slogan and Nicole Kidman have in common?

What does MK Ultra, 'You'll own nothing and be happy' WEF slogan and Nicole Kidman have in common?
"There will be in the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude and producing dictatorship without tears, so to speak, producing a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them but will rather enjoy it."
Julian Huxley, brother of Aldous (best known for his 1932 novel 'Brave New World'), was the first director of the United Nations (UN) Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). He was also the President of the British Eugenics Society.
The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a set of international development goals from 2016 to 2030, which was adopted by the UN Sustainable Development Summit held in September 2015 which built on the success of Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
Sustainable Development = The Great Reset!
The Huxley's are one big satanic clan. Julian was one of the big promotors of transhumanism. Thomas Henry Huxley was one of Darwin's elite buddies, defending his satanic evolution theory hoax and was nicknamed 'Darwins Bulldog'.
In 1956, Julian Huxley’s relative and MKULTRA Australia coordinator, Leonard G.H. Huxley, was elected to the Council of the AAS and he became Vice-President the following year. During this time, the headquarters of ASSA were located on the grounds of the ANU in Canberra, which Leonard was the Chairman of. ASSA was also influenced by the Carnegie Corporation and the pro-eugenics UNESCO which Julian Huxley founded. The ASSA council met with the heads of UNESCO Australia in October, 1956 and worked together to decide the direction of their eugenics program in Australia.
Strehlow would go on to contribute the ‘Aborigines Project’ at ASSA with contributions from MKULTRA Doctors Ronald Taft and John Phillip Sutcliffe. The project was headed by Charles D. Rowley who was a founder and principal of the previously mentioned intelligence front, ASOPA.
Leonard G.H. Huxley also supported weaponized anthropology outside of the AAS. In 1965 Huxley was the head of the Australian Fulbright Scholarship program at USEFA, which transferred MKULTRA doctors between Australia and the USA. In that year, Huxley accepts an application for a Scholarship from Dr. John D. McCaffrey from Stanford University. One of McCaffrey’s references was Gregory Bateson, a founder of the CIA and Project MKULTRA.
McCaffrey’s proposed research outlined a visual approach where he would record feedback from Aborigines in the form of their artwork.[19] This study mirrored an unethical MKULTRA experiment by U.S. Military Doctor, Alexander H. Leighton at the Japanese War Relocation Center at Poston in the Mojave Desert.[20] Both studies aimed to learn about the concept of feedback which is important in understanding human personality. The role of feedback was discovered in a brainwashing experiment at McCaffrey’s Stanford University.
The Institute of Psychiatry at Maudlsey Hospital – A base of Australian MKULTRA operations.
In 1936, Julian Huxley’s friend Julian Treveleyan, took part in a mescaline study at the Institute of Psychiatry (IoP) at the Maudsley Hospital in London. Trevelyan’s son suggests Julian Huxley tipped him off about the experiment. Julian Huxley’s brother Aldous later wrote ‘The Doors of Perception’, which detailed his experiences after taking mescaline. Treveleyan and the Huxley’s were distantly related as he later married the great-granddaughter of Charles Darwin.
Much of the IoP’s pre-WW2 finance came from the Rockefeller Foundation which enabled an exchange of doctors between the Maudsley and Nazi Germany. The IoP was originally a competitor to the notorious Tavistock clinic until it came under Tavistock control when the British Army & Intelligence crowd, including Dr. John Rawlings Rees and Eric Trist, started operating out of here. Julian Huxley later promoted the work of Dr. Eliot Slater at the IoP. At this point in time, Slater was the Vice-Chair of the British Eugenics Society and had a long history of working closely with MKULTRA Doctor, William Sargant.
From the late 50’s onward, the IoP was the home of MKULTRA Sub-project 111, directed by Dr. Hans J. Eysenck. According to the book Undiscovered Paul Robeson: Quest for Freedom, Maudsley Hospital was the “staging ground for European and African MKULTRA operations”. There is evidence that strongly suggests it was also a staging ground for Australian operations.
As Dr. Peter W. Sheehan explained, Prof. John Sutcliffe was the driving force behind MKULTRA Hypnosis research coming to Australia at The University of Sydney through his connections with Martin Orne. Prior to this, Sutcliffe was in contact with Eysenck who was Director of Subproject 111 at the time. Eysenck was an influential member of the British Psychological Society and so was an Australian Army Psychologist, Donald W. McElwain, who had carried out psychological experiments at Maudsley in the early 50’s. It’s no coincidence that McElwain was the President of the Australian Branch of the British Psychological Society at this time (1958-1959).
While Eysenck had influence over Sutcliffe, Wendy A.F. Thorn was a student in Sutcliffe’s department studying hypnosis and multiple personality disorder with MKULTRA Sub-project 84 Doctor, Frederick J. Evans. She would later engage in research financed by the Australian Branch of the British Psychological Society (with assistance from Eysenck) at Leonard Huxley’s Australian National University, before travelling over to the IoP to begin research with Eysenck himself.
The funding that helped Martin Orne establish Sub-project 84 at The University of Sydney was recieved through the Human Ecology Fund, specifically under a project titled, ‘Attitude Formation, Decision Matrices’. Eysenck also recieved his Sub-project 111 finance under the same title. It seems that both Sub-projects 84 and 111 were related and both had influence over Australian operations.
In 1975, Dr. Martin Seligman went to the IoP at Maudsley on a ‘sabbatical’. It was here he was introduced to Eysenck and worked with IoP staff to study phobias and obsessions while developing his Learned Helplessness theory which later became the basis of the CIA’s 2001 torture program. Dr. Stanley Rachman was at the IoP at this time and he had published studies with Seligman that helped to develop his theory. Seligman’s work at the IoP was in the same year that Kidman was involved with Learned Helplessness research on sheep in Australia. In 1977, Eysenck gave a lecture at The University of Sydney on his Australian tour.
Other Australian Maudsley connections are apparent from William Sargant’s involvement at the hospital. It was Sargant that had influence over the serial killer and MKULTRA Doctor, Harry Bailey. Dr. Ardie Lubin was based at the IoP until he left to study with Dr. Jacqueline Goodnow at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.[53][54] Shortly after these studies, Jacquline Goodnow and her husband Robert would be working with Dr. John Gittinger at Psychological Assessments Associates (PAA) – before coming back to Australia in 1972. Their official association with PAA didn’t end until 1974, around the same time Fiona Barnett alleges Gittinger was in Australia working with Dr. Antony Kidman.
Nicole Kidman recently created the ‘Dr. Antony Kidman Scholarship in Health Psychology’ at the IoP. This could only be a coincidence if you have your eyes wide shut…
In March this year, Nicole paid a visit to the IoP (now the IoPPN) to create the ‘Dr Antony Kidman Scholarship in Health Psychology’. This was made in memory of her father who died less than a month after MKULTRA Victim, Fiona Barnett, complained to the Australian Health Practitioners Regulatory Agency (AHPRA) about Antony’s abuse.
In that complaint, Fiona alleged that Antony Kidman and Australian Theater Legend, John Bell raped her at a party in 1984 at the Kidman Family House in North Sydney. Fiona also alleges that Nicole witnessed Antony physically assault her the morning after while shouting, “Do you remember, now?!” until Fiona said “No.”. Fiona suffered from Multiple Personality Disorder (or Dissociative Identity Disorder) as a result of abuse like this.
Possibly due to her real world experience, Nicole later played a psychologist in ‘Batman Forever’ who specializes in Multiple Personality Disorder.
Australian Positive Psychology & Buddhism conference has multiple links to the CIA.
Since 2006, a series of yearly conferences that jointly promote Buddhism and Positive Psychology have been held in Sydney. They’re called the ‘Happiness and It’s Causes’ conferences and the chief organizer is the Dalai Lama (via the Vajrayana Institute). The Dalai Lama is a well documented CIA asset with a long history of financial support from the agency.[60] Interestingly, the first conference was held in the Sydney Masonic Centre. The featured line up usually includes a mixture of Positive Psychology promoting psychologists, Buddhist scholars, monks and a few Australian Broadcasting Corporation employees. These journalists and media figures promote Positive Psychology, Buddhism and other attendees in their own time.
In 2008, CIA Doctors Seligman and Kidman attended the conference and gave talks which promoted Positive Psychology and its potential role in education.[63] School Principal of Geelong Grammar, Stephen Meek, was also in attendance and he was also selling the idea of ‘Positive Schools’. Meek was the first School Principal in Australia have approved the program. In 2015, Meek told the Child Abuse Royal Commission that he was more interested in protecting his schools reputation than exposing pedophiles existing within his school.
Two CIA assets promote Positive Psychology & Buddhism at a conference in Sydney.
Kidman’s emissary, Dr Sarah Edelman was there in 2007 with the Dalai Lama. (You can find Edelman’s meditation CD’s for sale at the Theosophical Society. Meditation can lead to mania, depression and psychosis.) Australian False Memory Association Advisor & Associate of Dr. Martin Orne, Dr. Graham Burrows, was also in attendance.
Another 2007 speaker was B. Alan Wallace who is an expert in Tibetan Buddhism from Stanford University. Wallace works on the on the Cultivating Emotional Balance project with CIA & Military psychologist Paul Ekman and his daughter Eve Ekman. The Dalai Lama is a strong supporter of this project, having played a crucial role in its creation in 2000. Another speaker to be at the conferences was Bob Carr, who is a previous attendee of the Bohemian Grove and a CIA supporter.
This years event headlined Eve Ekman.[78] She’s the daughter of former Chief Psychologist of the United States Army, Paul Ekman who owns the Paul Ekman Group, which has worked with the CIA and FBI. Eve works for her father’s group and so does an, ex-Secret Service, ex-Army Interrogation & PSYOP expert, Paul Kelly, as the Director of Law Enforcement and Security workshops in the USA.[81] Vice-President John Pearse is also connected with intelligence, working for the Anti-Terrorist Branch at New Scotland Yard in London and he has been responsible for the design and delivery of a number of counter-terrorism seminars.
In the late 1960’s, Paul Ekman worked alongside The University of Western Australia (UWA) on weaponized anthropology in Papua New Guinea.[83] At this time, UWA was a hub of MKULTRA research with Prof. Ronald Taft making use of his CIA money in similar studies. Interestingly, Ekman’s research was on the exact same tribe that Dr. Leonas Petrauskas, Dr. Vin Zigas and Dr. Carelton Gadjusek had focused their MKNAOMI linked research on. Ekman’s finance for this study came from the Advanced Projects Research Agency (ARPA) and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research.
Just a year after working with the Dalai Lama to create the CEB project, Ekman was approached to join the CIA’s torture program that started at Martin Seligman’s house. Ekman denies joining the program, however he does admit his research assists interrogators. The Ekman Group offers training to detect lies and analyse body language which becomes useful for interrogation and mind control purposes.
Could Positive Psychology be MKULTRA Mind Control?
The term ‘Positive Psychology’ was coined by MKULTRA doctor, Abraham Maslow to describe his work. Albert Ellis was the “unsung hero of positive psychology” and gave a seminar at the CIA’s Esalen Institute in the 60’s to demonstrate his original work. Albert Ellis was influential in the careers of CIA Doctors & Positive Psychology pioneers, Dr. Martin Seligman and Dr. Antony Kidman.
Dr. Aaron T. Beck is the father of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which was developed with Ellis and helped to form Positive Psychology.Beck was a Military Psychologist at Walter Reed Army Hospital who also went on to influence Seligman and Kidman. Beck ended up on the Advisory Board of the CIA’s False Memory Syndrome Foundation, having been personally invited by the head of MKULTRA Sub-project 84, Dr. Martin T. Orne.
In 1998, Martin Seligman introduced Positive Psychology in his first address as President of the American Psychological Association with his fellow APA member, Dr. Antony Kidman in attendance. Three years later, Seligman would use his life’s research to develop the torture program with the CIA and SERE (Survival, Evasion and Resistance and Escape). SERE is an organisation which was developed using MKULTRA research from the Kubark Manual and the Phoenix Program.
Positive Psychology is continuing to make its way into the Australian School System. In the 2015 Keynote Address of the Positive Schools Conference, Toni Noble, an attendee of the Happiness & it’s Causes Conferences and a lead author of the pro-paedophile ‘Safe Schools Framework‘, quoted the current director of ASIO and his desired need for ‘greater social cohesion’ to combat ‘youth militant extremism’. Noble proposed that Positive Psychology was the best way to achieve this objective.
“American Soldiers Brainwashed with Positive Thinking.”
A major red-flag against the introduction of such a program into schools would be the fact that the U.S. Military paid Seligman over $30 million dollars to create the ‘Comprehensive Soldier Fitness Program’ in 2008. This program was a blatantly unethical research project that used the guise of a fitness program to hide its true intentions. It effectively threw away the soldiers right to informed consent and turned them into human-guinea pigs. In this experiment, soldiers were taught to how to think and respond more obediently with the aid of Positive Psychology, rather than use their own critical thinking. The U.S. Army admits the purpose of this was an attempt to make an ‘indomitable army’.
One component of the program was ‘Spiritual Fitness’. This inappropriately forced the idea that religion was essential to achieve better mental health. Positive Psychology promotes Buddhism from within its own core tenets and just like the conferences in Sydney, this seems to be an attempt to blur the lines between Eastern philosophy and Psychology.
In his criticism of Seligman’s Positive Psychology, Dr. Kirk J. Schneider has shown that high levels of positive thinking correlate with Positive Illusion, which distorts reality:
“What the researchers don’t help us to understand-and what will be essential to understand if we are ever to substantively broach human vitality-is how positivity ratios also appear to correlate with destructive human tendencies. For example, a growing body of research appears to suggest that what the researchers call high positivity-a disposition to pleasant, grateful, and upbeat feelings-is also correlative with a dimension called “positive illusion” (relative inaccuracy regarding reality); and that negativity (or what is generally characterized as mild to moderate depression) is correlated with relatively greater accuracy concerning reality. These findings, moreover, also appear to square with recent correlations between highly positive people and suppressed psychological growth, inability to self-reflect, and racial intolerance.”
When we have a thought and behaviour modification program being implemented into schools that was designed by an MKULTRA Doctor and used for the purposes of mind-control by the CIA and the U.S. Military – organizations which have both been behind the largest mind control operations in history to be used on innocent civilians – it seems obvious that it might not actually be trying to improve peoples lives. Positive Psychology and Positive Schools will only serve to further reduce the ability of people to critically think and understand reality. These negative effects are consistent with the goals of the eugenics project we know as MKULTRA.

Part 1link
This is part 2 of 6 in the Heir and Assassin multipart series. As stated in the first part, I have the other parts already drafted, they just need revision.
Feel free to record, monetize, and/or modify as long as you give credit.
And any sort of constructive critique or feedback is welcome!
Wordcount: 1400
Setting: The training grounds of the royal guard's barracks at noon on a hot, sunny day.
Summary: After meeting the heir at the tavern two nights ago, you learned the Kingdom is hiring mercenaries to guard their caravan. This is a perfect means to enter the summit and gain the trust of the heir along the way. But it seems there are far more sellswords than expected. You are confident in your prowess, but can a Dominion warrior ever be accepted into their historic enemy's guard?
(The heir tries to sneak up behind the Listener and startle them)
[Heir]
Aha!
...
Nothing? Not even a twitch? Come on, you startled me when we first met, it's only fair. My royal honor will not abide the imbalance.
I suppose adventurers need sterner nerves. Wait. Hold on. Did you see me sneak up on you?
...
(Amused) You needn't spare my pride. Daylight was a poor choice for that sort of skullduggery.
That aside, I wanted to say that I'm glad you came. Our encounter was brief, so I feared I didn't leave an impression. But here you are, ready to enlist. Clearly you remembered me. Or perhaps it was the promise of coin. Even then, it's good to see you.
...
I'm given to understand there are far more applicants than we anticipated. Many hail from the Republic, strangely enough. I suppose it is a convenient return trip for them. But I see it as a good omen for this alliance. The spirit of cooperation precedes us.
To thin the crowd, the captain of the guard is setting up something of a tournament. I wasn't expecting competition to be so fierce, but I will certainly reap the benefits. I am eager to see how you perform! I have no doubt you will secure a spot in the caravan.
...
Ah, the captain is waving me over. Impatient as ever. I must attend to my own "important matters". And it would be improper to show you too much favor.
Off I go then. Break a leg!
... ... ...
(The heir shouts addressing the crowd of sellswords)
Hail, warriors of the Kingdom! And welcome to those from beyond our borders!
I speak on behalf of the royal family when I say—I am honored by your presence. The sheer number of you willing to serve as our protectors warms my heart.
The good captain tells me that many of you served our nation in war with the Dominion. I thank you for your service. And I thank those of you who keep our borders safe from beasts and bandits.
However, I cannot offer laurels to you all. If we arrived at the summit with everyone here, it would no doubt look like an invasion!
As such, we have decided to hold a contest. Employment will be offered to the winners. The captain will instruct you on the procedures. Before he does, I simply wish to say: good luck! And even should you lose, know you are an invaluable ally of our great Kingdom.
All that said... let the games begin!
... ... ...
(Sounds of furious battle, stopped by a shout or whistle)
(Distantly) Captain, what is the meaning of this?! You can't dismiss a victor without good reason. And I see none.
...
Wait!
(Listener walks away and the Speaker runs after them)
(Catching breath) Please, wait a moment.
...
I'm fine. I needed to catch you. Before you left for good.
...
I heard his dismissal too. But I am heir to the Kingdom's throne, not him. And he is completely out of line. We both saw your swordsmanship. There can be no doubt you have few peers. You deserve to be my family's protector. No one would deny that.
...
Yes, the captain did. But he didn't deny your skill he—... it would be amusing if it didn't infuriate me.
He recognized your fighting style. Dominion sword techniques are quite distinctive, or so he says. But he acts as if it's a disease. As though training in a martial art infects you with slavish obedience and murderous glee!
But... I cannot wholly fault him. The Dominion is our ancestral enemy. And he lost much in the last war. Too much. But it's blinding him now. I refuse to let you slip away. You have no love for the Dominion. I can see it in your face.
...
Sharing their blade is not the same as sharing their heart. I don't know what life is like there. But I can imagine there are many reasons to lose faith in your homeland. You aren't one of them. At least, you don't have to be.
...
(Cautiously) Were you pressed into military service? If you fought us in the last war, I would not hold it against you.
...
Of course, forgive me. Your reasons are your own.
However, that does leave the quandary of how to convince the captain. It will be challenging to prove your trustworthiness... Although I have an idea.
Come! It is time I repaid your favor.
...
No, I will hear nothing to the contrary. Or has the captain soured your opinion of this job?
...
No? Good. Follow me.
...
(Speaker and listener approach the captain of the guard)
Captain, may I speak to you?
...
No, both of you should be present. The two of you are the ones at odds. Now, I understand your trepidation, Captain. However, practicing a foreign school of swordcraft is not sufficient to forbid employment.
...
Are we not at peace with the Dominion? Our history is bloody—to be sure—but no war looms. Not yet. Civility rests on a knife's edge. Their ambassadors would surely find this a sign of prejudice. We are allying with the Republic soon. It is our duty to show goodwill to all nations. That way we might forge a lasting peace.
...
Yes, I know my parents' opinions on this matter. They've made it quite clear. And rest assured, I don't disagree. But! I am their only child. For me, they are uncompromising. And they have also made it clear they want the best guardians to protect me. What will they think of you turning this one away?
...
I... I'm not unsympathetic. Every family I know has been hurt by the Dominion. You have good reason to distrust them. But we mustn't forget this caravan's purpose. This summit is our hope to end the wars. The Dominion won't stand against us with the Republic at our back. This will ensure peace with both the Republic and the Dominion. We cannot let hatred blind us.
...
The others? Oh, I'm well aware we have an excess of proficient warriors here. Nevertheless, I want this one in the caravan. By my carriage, if possible.
...
I have good reason to trust them, because... (deep breath) because they've already saved me.
I lied to you before. I wasn't preparing for the summit two nights ago. I was in the city.
...
Yes, yes, I know. Please let me finish. I will submit myself to your lectures after.
I was having a few drinks in a humble tavern. That is when I met our Dominion candidate. I enjoyed our chat until some aggressive patrons forced me to accept protection. Many things went wrong that night: my identity was discovered, I was nearly robbed, and I had to travel with this then stranger. But I'm fine.
No guards were nearby. This adventurer could have captured and ransomed me. Or at least extorted me. Both of us knew it. But I was escorted safely to the palace. Tell me, captain, would an agent of the Dominion do that?
...
If it was to gain my confidence, then it succeeded. What could be achieved with my confidence that wouldn't be faster by capture? I don't think it's wise to invent machinations where there are none.
Besides, we are not wanting for other protectors. Fill the rest of my guard with staunch royalists if it will put you at ease.
...
Would you please consider it? Call it a personal favor. I want to travel with an adventurer. And I so rarely get to speak with citizens of the Dominion. It will provide valuable insight.
...
You will?! Thank you!
Well then, let us resume the--
...
Ah... yes. My punishment. How could I forget...
Allow me to have one final word then.
(Addressing the listener) Forgive me for speaking on your behalf. And for forcing you to endure so much suspicion and doubt. I hope employment is a suitable reward.
...
Think nothing of it! I was merely repaying the favor. And ensuring my caravan guards are as strong as possible. I hope that this act might win your trust, as you have won my trust.
...
It will be a long journey to the summit. I hope we can get better acquainted during that time.
...
I'm overjoyed that the feeling is mutual!
Well... I will meet you on the day of our departure.
...
Yes, yes, I'm coming captain. Heavens forbid I'm reluctant to face discipline...

2024.05.17 21:48 Bbashman Asked for my credit score prior to a job interview. Is this a scam?

I recently applied for a job at a pizza place on Indeed. A minimum wage job, nothing too spectacular. They messaged me on Indeed asking me to give them my email so they could contact me directly, which I found strange but not harmful. Then today, they sent me the following email.
We received your application for our open job position, and we feel your background would be a good match with our company. We are in the middle of processing applications and currently have seven other applications along with yours that we are considering, so you can think of yourself on the shortlist to be hired.
Please note that our company requires all potential employees to have a credit score on file for your interview. We ask for this because you will have access to company credit cards for business expenses. We'd like for each potential employee to complete this as this makes sure that our future employee is credible, trustworthy, and can be an asset to the company.
Please also note that because of the new economy, we take into consideration that there may be some blemishes on a large portion of applicant scores. Rest assured that your credit scores aren't significant, but our company still requires the report.
After that was a link to transunion and a deadline of 48 hours to do it.
My question is whether or not this is a scam. I'd just be making pizza and working at the cash register, so I don't see why it would be needed. Any and all advice is appreciated!

2024.05.17 21:45 PorcelainDalmatian Is Everyone Prepared For The Big Letdown?

As I’ve been listening to Trump trial podcasts and watching the daily cable news coverage of the NYC hush money trial (which typically lasts longer than the trial itself), I keep wondering: “Is everyone mentally prepared for the big letdown?” From Geroge Conway to Rachel Maddow to Andrew Weissman, everyone in Never Trump seems convinced that he will be convicted, and it will have huge impact on his campaign. I hate to break it to everyone, but no matter how much the pundits gin you up, the odds of that happening are very slim. This case has always been a “lose/lose” for us, and it should never have been brought in the first place.
First, consider the odds: The prosecution needs to convince 12 people beyond a reasonable doubt, while the defense only needs 1. If I had to pick between being right 100% of the time or being right 8% of the time, I’d take the 8%. All it takes is one, lone juror to decide they don’t like Stormy Daniels profession or they find Michael Cohen to be a dishonest scumbag (which he is) and the jury is hung. If a Trump supporter ran the gauntlet and slipped on to the jury, we’re done for. Also remember, these jurors claim to know next to nothing about this case, which means they’re probably not the brightest, most well-informed people in the world.
Second, we have to hope that the jurors ignore the law. As much as I loathe Trump, I have to admit that this case has always been weak sauce, because it is comically overcharged. Falsifying business records (which the prosecution has done an excellent job of proving) is a misdemeanor in New York state, punishable by a fine of $1,000 and up to a year in jail. Bragg has tried to “step up” this misdemeanor to a felony, by claiming that the falsification was used to cover up another crime. In this case that’s “New York” Article 17 - Violations of the Elective Franchise 17-152 - Conspiracy to Promote or Prevent Election,” which reads:
§ 17-152. Conspiracy to promote or prevent election. Any two or more persons who conspire to promote or prevent the election of any person to a public office by unlawful means and which conspiracy is acted upon by one or more of the parties thereto, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor.
That’s neither a single sentence from the statue nor a summary - it’s the entire statute. That’s it, folks. This obscure, ill-defined, little law was written in the 1970’s and has only been used once in New York history, for charges that were ultimately dropped. The entire clause hangs on the words “unlawful means.” Please note that “election interference” (everybody’s favorite little bit of vaguery) does not make an appearance. We all know what “unlawful means” means vis-a-vis elections: Sending your armed goons down to polling places to intimidate voters from voting. Stealing boxes of ballots. Attacking counting centers. Poll taxes. The fake electors scheme. Robocalls telling people they will be arrested on site if they vote.
Trump, however, didn’t use any illegal means. Adultery is not illegal. Hush money payments are not illegal. Colluding with favorable media outlets is not illegal. Scummy yes, illegal no. Most importantly - trying to keep negative information about your candidate from hitting the press is not felony election interference! If it is, the DA better be prepared to arrest and try every single politician in NY state history, along with their campaign managers and staff. There is no law anywhere on the books that says the electorate is entitled to know every bad thing a candidate has ever done or else it’s “felony election interference.” The whole idea is preposterous. If I hear this spurious argument one more time I’m going to have a brain aneurysm. Even if Trump is convicted, 17-152 is a misdemeanor! Just like the original falsifying documents charge. Are we going to send someone to jail for 4 years over 2 misdemeanors? If I litter (misdemeanor) while jaywalking (misdemeanor) do I become a convicted felon who gets thrown in Rikers for 4 years? C’mon.
Some pundits are still making the campaign finance argument, which fails on several counts. If you argue that David Pecker’s participation amounts to an illegal campaign contribution, then the State’s beef is with Pecker, not Trump. If you argue that Trump contributed $130,000 to his own campaign via Cohen, that’s also not a crime, as candidates can contribute unlimited money to their own campaigns. They even paid taxes on it, negating any tax evasion argument! Lastly, and most importantly, this was a Federal campaign subject to FEC laws - Bragg is out of his jurisdiction here. Finally, the FEC already investigated this issue and declined to bring charges. The campaign finance argument it moot.
If any one of the jurors follows the text of the law, were’ done for - and the State knows it. That is why they’re trying to introduce as many smarmy, salacious, extraneous details and characters as possible into the mix. They’re trying to paint Trump as the low-life, scummy, lecherous degenerate that he is, in hopes that the jurors will ignore the law and just say, “ Man is this guy a scumbag, we’re convicting him.” It might just work - as long as the jurors go with emotion over the law. But it’s a gamble.
Meanwhile, regardless of the verdict, it’s a lose-lose for Democrats. A hung jury will play the same as an acquittal in the mainstream press. Trumpkins will say “We told you so!” Never Trump will be despondent. Independents will think, “I guess this was a witch hunt, so the other trials must be too.” Since this is the only trial to go to trial before the election, it would be a PR disaster.
The sadder truth is that a conviction, although preferable, won’t play much better. Even if convicted, Trump is not going to jail - period. He will file an appeal that will take years, and he’ll most likely win, as the application of this statue is absurd. More importantly, a conviction won’t move the needle one iota with voters. If you doubt me, consider this: Trump ignored and then horribly mismanaged Covid, told us to drink bleach, then hit the links while over 3,000 Americans died each day. One million Americans died needless, horrible deaths under this man’s watch - and it didn’t move the needle. He was convicted of raping and defaming E. Jean Carroll - and it didn’t move the needle. He staged a months long, multi-faceted coup attempt, culminating in a 12,000-person bloody attack on the US Capitol, the first since the Civil War - and it didn’t move the needle. He was convicted in a NYC court of a lifetime of business fraud totaling a whopping half a billion dollars - and it didn’t move the needle. What kind of voter is going to say to himself, “Ya know, I’m OK with the raping, the one million dead Americans, the lifetime of business fraud, and the bloody coup attempt, but…...….’falsifying business records’ is a bridge too far!” Nobody, that’s who. The best we can hope for is a tiny bump that will evaporate within a week.
The Mar-A-Lago documents case was always the slam dunk here, followed closely by the January 6th case and Georgia. But due to Milquetoast Merrick Garland’s cowardly years of delays and Jack Smith’s tactical incompetence, we’re stuck with this.

2024.05.17 21:32 jeetpatel20 Help with better interpretation of rules regarding Driving License

Hello all,
Recently I was going through a fact sheet issued by German Authorities regarding validity of driving license of countries outside of EU and EEA. There are list of countries under the Annex 11 which can easily exchange there licenses with a German license without a need of an exam (depends country to country). Up until now I was under the impression that even though I have Indian driving license, I will have to complete the mandatory training hours and then only I can appear for theory/practical exams. But as I was going through the fact sheet, I came across a paragraph in the sheet that says -
in English version of Fact sheet (refer doc1) - "You will be issued the German driving licence for the corresponding category of motor vehicles once you have passed the theory and practical tests for that category. When taking the practical test, you have to be accompanied by a driving instructor. This is only possible after the driving instructor has verified that you have the necessary knowledge, skills and understanding related to the operation of motor vehicles. If necessary, you can prepare for the test by taking a few driving lessons."
as there is no date of issue mentioned on these sheets, I also found another version with different wording so I will mention that below -
another English version of similar fact sheet (refer doc2) - "You will be issued the German driving licence for the corresponding category of motor vehicles, once you have passed the theory and practical tests for that category. When taking the practical test, you have to be accompanied by a driving instructor. Training in a driving school, which is required when obtaining a driving licence for the first time, is not necessary."
The same para in German version of fact sheet (refer doc3)- "Die deutsche Fahrerlaubnis für die entsprechende Klasse von Kraftfahrzeugen wird Ihnen erteilt, wenn Sie die theoretische und praktische Prüfung für diese Klasse ablegen. Sie müssen bei der praktischen Prüfung von einem Fahrlehrer begleitet sein. Dies ist nur möglich, wenn sich der Fahrlehrer zuvor davon überzeugt hat, dass Sie über die zum Führen eines Kraftfahrzeugs erforderlichen Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten verfügen. Gegebenenfalls können Sie sich noch mit einigen Fahrstunden auf die Prüfung vorbereiten."
So, I am interpreting this that as a Driving License holder of a country (India in my case) which is not listed under Annex 11, I am not obligated to mandatory training for practical lessons. If I deem myself as an eligible driver I can ask for a test right away, the instructor can then test me based on the knowledge and give a green signal for me to go ahead with the test.
I would like your inputs on this, did I interpret it correctly? If its true, then as the only way for application is through Fahrschule, what if they deny this and asks me take mandatory classes, can I approach any govt office?(this last question is a little far fetched but I would like to know).
Thank you guys.

2024.05.17 21:29 DrifloonEmpire Packet Loss Weirdness - Isn't reflected through PingPlotter

One of our internet modem/router combos has an ethernet line running to our basement, which (until last Thursday) was connected to a Nethear Nighthawk router-turned-access point. It was getting a bit old, so I swapped it out for a TP-Link access point, with a noticeable performance increase. The Nighthawk always had a tiny bit of packet loss over the past several years, though it was never noticeable on things like voice/video calls or online games (mostly Nintendo ones, which I know don't have the highest tick rate, but still).
However, I noticed a problem when I recently bought an ASUS ROG Strix G15 laptop and connected it to the network through the Nighthawk - if I was running a ping test in CMD (usually to 8.8.8.8, Google's DNS), and ran a Speed test on the Speedtest.net application at the same time, the ping/packet test in CMD would drop a ton of packets while the test was running (something that would NOT happen if I bypassed the Nighthawk and connected wirelessly to the gateway itself instead). Swapping out the Nighthawk for the TP-Link fixed this issue, the ROG Strix doesn't drop packets during speed tests while connected through the TP-Link.
Before I did the swap, though, I noticed that my phone, when running speedtests through the Nighthawk, would always report packet loss (usually 0.3-0.7%), and even my Xbox Series X (connected wirelessly) almost always reports 1% packet loss on its' speed tests. Nintendo Switch has no packet loss test, though after playing some Mario Kart 8 I wasn't noticing any rubberbanding or warping or anything like that - connection was smooth. Laptops would occasionally report 0.2-0.4% packet loss on speedtests, but usually got 0% loss, and CMD packet tests would usually drop a few packets out of 3000-5000, but usually never more than 5-7 lost. Either way, this odd packet loss seemingly went away after I swapped the Nighthawk for the TP-Link. I guess it was short-lived or I got lucky earlier, because I noticed that my phone and Series X are reporting packet loss on speedtests again, and my laptops occasionally report it as well. Yet I haven't noticed any performance loss at all network-wise. I ran a couple of long packet loss tests in CMD on both of my laptops, connected through the TP-Link, and one only dropped 6 packets out of 20,000, while the other only dropped 2 out of 20,000. I then did a CMD packet test to my router (thinking it might be the wiring in the wall), out of 10,000 packets only 2 were dropped.
I then got a recommendation from a friend to try Pingplotter. Ran it on both laptops through the TP-Link, and no matter what the destination was, or how much time has passed, they didn't report any packet loss at all on the final hop. There was some small packet loss in the middle, and my router dropped a TON of packets if I set the interval to 0.5 seconds (which is apparently normal due to router traffic prioritization), but none of the "dropped packets" from the router carried over into the next hop (I was playing Mario Kart AND running a CMD pingtest alongside pingplotter when it was doing this, and none of that extreme loss was reflected in either the game or the test). I was told to read results backwards, and there's zero loss on the final hop no matter what (and all of the in-the-middle loss is from Comcast's infrastructure), so all previous loss can be ignored due to it not carrying over to the destination.
So I have things reporting packet loss on speedtests only when connected through my wireless access point (that's wired to the routegateway combo from Comcast), little-to-no packet loss when pinging Google DNS or my router when doing packet tests in CMD (less than 0.05% lost, if any at all), pingplotter reporting no loss on the final hop, pingplotter only showing loss on Comcast infrastructure hops, and zero noticeable effect on Network performance. Why exactly is this happening? Should I be worried about any of this or can I just ignore it? If Pingplotter is showing no packet loss on the final destination, nor any sustained packet loss coming from my network, can I just ignore these packet loss anomalies? I'm really confused.

Do you have any aesthetic preferences for color or lighting? Describe what you're looking for, or feel free to provide some links to examples that may help. Some people prefer an inobtrusive stealth build, while others may prefer a case full of rainbow RGB.
I don't care about RGB. A tower with a sleek simplistic design, that's not too expensive. Also, a lot of USB ports would be nice.
Any other specific requests or requirements? Examples might include a specific minimum amount of storage, or a particular CPU socket for a future upgrade path, etc.
I would like to get an m2 SSD to install the OS on. At least 1 TB of space in addition to the 870 SSD I already have.
