Off-Topic / Twitter, Facebook shuts presidential accounts January 20
« on: December 28, 2020, 02:43:50 pm »Message ID: 1347500
 :cat:


Both Twitter and Facebook promised back in November to hand over control of all presidential accounts on Jan. 20, 2021, forcing Team Trump to cede position-specific handles @POTUS, @FLOTUS and @VP to incomers Joe Biden, Jill Biden,and Kamala Harris, respectively. The same goes for @WhiteHouse, @PressSec, @Cabinet and @LaCasaBlanca.

"As we did in 2017, Twitter is actively working with the U.S. government to support the transition of Twitter accounts across administrations, so that the incoming Biden administration will have access to institutional White House Twitter accounts," the company said in a statement.

Kevin will never be home alone again. Kevin, a part-time Las Vegas resident will have a very Merry Christmas after hitting the $15.5 million Megabucks jackpot at the Suncoast on Thursday.

The ESA is spending $100 million to clean up one piece of space junk


https://bgr.com/2020/11/29/space-junk-cleanup-esa-clearspace/


According to a news release by the ESA, the agency has signed a massive contract with a Swiss startup called ClearSpace SA. The company has been awarded €86 million — which is roughly $102 million USD — for the purposes of removing a single large piece of space junk from Earth orbit. The mission, which will be ClearSpace-1, will launch in 2025 and attempt to bring down a Vespa payload adapter.

Space junk is a huge problem that is growing bigger by the day. Discarded rocket components, bits and pieces of old, defunct satellites, and even abandoned space stations (looking at you, China) have cluttered the area around Earth in greater density than ever before. Now, as a new initiative by the European Space Agency suggests, cleaning up that trash is going to be a complicated and apparently very, very costly task.

They call it the “Airplane Graveyard” – they aren’t war graves or planes that crashed. They were planes that were taken out over the reef and pushed off intact after the war ended”, said Brandi Mueller, “They should have flown more, lived longer, but they were sunk in perfect condition.”

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. — An artificial reef of the coast of St. Augustine is booming with marine life thanks to over 40 A-6 Intruder aircraft that were once marked for destruction.

These massive metal structures were sunk 25 years ago to create an artificial reef. It's now a destination for fishermen and scuba divers to see an array of sea creatures and even hunt invasive species.

Off-Topic / "Paws Across the Pacific" 600 Pets to be rehomed from Hawaii Covid19 victims
« on: October 31, 2020, 03:41:11 pm »Message ID: 1343627
 :cat:

https://currently.att.yahoo.com/att/more-600-dogs-cats-airlifted-051522209.html

More than 600 adoptable cats and dogs were airlifted from Hawaii to the US mainland in the largest animal rescue flight in history, according to Hawaii's Emergency Management Agency.

Dubbed "Paws Across the Pacific," a chartered Hercules C-130 plane flew across the Hawaiian Islands on October 28, picking up dogs and cats from overcrowded shelters on Kauai, Oahu and Maui.

"Pet shelters in Hawaii are in a COVID-19 crisis. Normal operations have been affected by months of shut down, economic downturn, limited hours, and routine flights to mainland halted," said Liz Baker, CEO of Greater Good Charities, which supported the flight. "The Paws Across the Pacific flight is urgently needed to make space in Hawaii's shelters for at-risk pets who otherwise wouldn't be able to receive necessary care to survive."


The plane landed at Seattle's Boeing Field on Thursday, where it was met by volunteers from pet shelter and rescue groups across Washington State, Oregon, Idaho and Montana.

Baker had a personal interest in its success -- a chocolate puppy lab that she has named "Hilo" in honor of his hometown. She decided to adopt the dog after the sudden death of her dog, Stella.

She made the trek from Phoenix to Seattle to meet the plane on the tarmac at Boeing Field.

"I know there are other Stellas on that flight," she told CNN with tears in her eyes, holding Hilo in her arms. "We are so proud to help all of these animals find loving homes."

Taking hundreds of dogs and cats out of Hawaii was no easy feat. The airlift was done in coordination with the Hawaii Veterinary Medical Association to ensure they all arrived safely.

Greater Good Charities, the John R. Peterson Foundation, the Animal Rescue Site, Banfield Foundation, VCA Pet Charities, Tito's Handmade Vodka, the Petco Foundation, Royal Canin and Healthy Paws Pet Insurance & Foundation all supported the journey.

Baker confirmed to CNN that all the animals on board "Paws Across the Pacific" arrived in Seattle healthy, as she prepared to take Hilo back to her home to Phoenix.

For more information on how to adopt these animals, contact PAWS, The NOAH Center, Seattle Humane, the Humane Society of Skagit Valley, Kitsap Humane, Oregon Humane, Southwest Washington Humane, Kootenai Humane Society, Seattle Area Feline Rescue (SAFR), Tracs, Spokanimal, Blue Mountain Humane Society and the Embrace a Discarded Pet Society.

Do You know someone who was defrauded by this scam?  Pass this questionnaire link on to report magazine sales harassment.

https://www.fbi.gov/resources/victim-services/seeking-victim-information/seeking-victims-in-magazine-subscription-scams-investigation

The FBI and U.S. Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) are seeking victims who may have been defrauded by magazine subscription services from 2000 to the present.

This nationwide telemarketing fraud scheme is being carried out by companies engaging in phony and fraudulent magazine subscription solicitation scams. These companies target elderly and other vulnerable individuals and trick them into unwittingly signing up for expensive magazine subscription packages. The investigation has identified dozens of companies involved in fraudulent magazine sales located within the United States and internationally. The scheme involves tens of thousands of victims and millions of dollars in losses.

If you were fraudulently charged or contacted by a magazine subscription service using deceptive tactics during the time period listed above, please complete this brief questionnaire. Your responses are voluntary but would be useful in the federal investigation and to identify you as a potential victim. Based on the responses provided, you may be contacted by the FBI and asked to provide additional information.

The FBI is legally mandated to identify victims of federal crimes that it investigates and provide these victims with information, assistance services, and resources.

FusionCash / FusionCash TOS link
« on: October 26, 2020, 03:40:30 pm »Message ID: 1343220
 :cat:

For our newbies, here's a link and a copy of the TOS.  The topic was locked so I'm restarting for reference.


https://www.fusioncash.net/tos.php

    Start your membership here!!!

Payment Minimum. In order to be paid, you must have a balance of $25.00 or more, and $15.00 or more of that balance must consist of Non-Bonus credits as defined in section III.C.ii.


Keep posting this so a copy is handy for the newbies, I had to go look for some of these!!!

Check with Support if you have any questions, Before you post something and for Updates to these " Rules "


This thread is THE final say in everything and anything related to the usage of the FusionCash forum. Since following the rules for some is a harder task than what it should be, I am going to break down all the rules for you.

 
1. Observe the golden rule -- Treat others as you would like to be treated

This one is pretty obvious. This means NO flaming, NO derogatory remarks to other members or staff. I know it is an online forum, but behind everyone's screen name is a real human with real feelings. So please respect everyone, even if you do not agree with them, or get along with them.

What if I break this rule? You will be banned for a minimum of 14 days and in a severe case your FusionCash account will be closed and all money will be forfeited.



2. Respect our advertisers -- Do not discuss cancellation or post disparaging remarks

This is a big one. We rely on the relationship between ourselves and the advertisers and companies we work with to be able to bring you the best offers that are out there. We need our members to understand that the advertisers are paying you to be a member. Please do offers that you are interested in, and not just do them because it has a 20 dollar payout. I hear people all the time whining about an offer that did not credit, but if they were truly interested in the offer it would not be that big of a deal because they wanted the product/service to begin with and the cash they get back from that is just something on the side. As long as you respect our advertisers, you may state your honest opinion of them – saying "This offer sucks!" or "This offer is a scam!" is not an honest opinion since it is speaking  out of anger.

What if I break this rule? You will be banned for a minimum of 7 days.



3. Do not paste links to other sites -- This means no referral links whatsoever - even in private messages

A rule that should probably be number one or number two on the list, because it seems to the be the one most broken. This forum is for FusionCash, not for you to see how many people you can get to your other site that you make money off of. It is not a forum for you to spam your link to your store, candle selling site, or any other site that you can make money off of others. If it is a video on YouTube, or a news story you wish to share with us, by all means share your link. If it is your own personal webpage with NO REFERRAL LINKS on the site, then please share it. We do not need people sharing links that contains links to other sites where the original poster can gain money from other members. Any link found that contains referral links will be taken down immediately, and the poster will be promptly banned. If you have a link and you are unsure if you can post it, please send in a support ticket or an email to support@fusioncash.com and I will be more than happy to look it over and let you know.

What if I break this rule? You will be banned for a minimum of 7 days.



4. Understand that we cannot filter all of the content on the forums, so you may read or see something you don't like.

This isn't so much a rule as the others. We do believe in free speech, so if someone doesn't like the color purple and purple is your favorite color – sorry. We are not going to mute people's opinion of us or other subjects. Be respectful, observe the golden rule, and know that everyone is not going to share the same view you have.

What if I break this rule? You will be banned for a minimum of 14 days.


REMEMBER: Your use of the forums is a privilege, not a right, and we may revoke your access at any time and for any reason.
 Here is a quote from the T.O.S. Agreement  ............  logging into your FC account: Users must log in and use  ............  on their own personal computer and internet connection only. The use of a FusionCash  ............  on a public or shared computer, or public internet connection is grounds for disqualification.  ............  your FusionCash account on the same computer or internet connection as your referrer, referral, or  ............  grounds for disqualification of any and all users involved. ......


We advise that you just use FC from home.  With that said, you can use a friends' private connection like you described, however, that friend (and anyone else living there) will not be able to use FC as long as they live there.  So you (and them) should be quite sure about that before you login.
