@Allstate is your system incapable of generating a new proof of insurance document for an apartment change, or is your chat support incompetent?

If it wasn’t so easy for everyone to get guns, the sick people wouldn’t have guns.

@NYTGames was the crossover really necessary in today’s Strands?

That was the final frontier. I guess there is nothing left.

The difference is how well they heat when they do have power. Gas furnaces are much more efficient at low temperatures.

I’m starting to think that the repetition is intentional

Better yet: I couldn’t finish the story so I split it into 2. I’ll close the first and do the 2nd next sprint. We can test both in the following sprint.

conspiracy theory noun : a theory that explains an event or set of circumstances as the result of a secret plot by usually powerful conspirators. Example:
The FBI colluded with Big Tech to censor the Hunter Biden laptop scandal and interfere in the 2020 election to stop Trump. Pass it on.

I tried to watch another live NHL game that is not blacked out (the Blackhawks). But it asks me to link to a TV provider. I am able to watch the Seattle game but not Chicago.

It looks like the game is blacked out, but your app doesn’t tell me that. Instead it tells me to pay for a subscription I already have.

I just called, and the person I talked to was useless. He said he “refreshed” my account, and the tv shows that I’m subscribed. But it won’t let me watch the hockey game. I can watch basketball, but not NHL. Why not?

@ESPNPlusHelp I have the Disney bundle, but when I try to watch a live hockey game on my Apple TV it asks me to pay for a prescription

True, but we’re still talking about control vs access. As long as one current employee has access, twitter will be fine unless a former employee does something malicious.
Just because they lost admin access doesn’t mean they lost access to the code. They could easily clone the repo into an org they do control and abandon the old one.

Twitter’s source code is full of libs. It’s time to get rid of them

I had a screen protector on my last phone that offered “free” replacement, but they charged shipping and handling that made it cost more than a new set from Amazon.
