I just wanted to share the story.
I just wanted to share the story.
Someone in Norway has the same name as me, and they made a PayPal account. They accidentally used my email during signup and I got some weird emails in Norwegian. So I called PayPal. I asked them to change the email. “You can’t, because it’s not your account, you just admitted”. Uh, ok. Can you close the account? “It’s not your account”. Can you contact the account owner and tell them to fix it? “We don’t have their email”. Can I use account recovery and close it? “Then you would be breaking into someone else’s account”.
So what should I do? PayPal put a notice on the account in case they log in, and told me to just ignore the emails. I was baffled. Just ignore the emails? Stop sending them then! But there really isn’t anything I can do. I tried account recovery anyway, but it didn’t work.
They never logged in I think. They probably made another account with the correct details and never thought about this one. So I’ve been getting the “our terms and conditions have changed” email once or twice a year and ignoring them. They’re still in Norwegian.
I just looked it up, this has been going on since 2015. Maybe I should contact PayPal again and tell them how ridiculous they’ve been.
No, this is behavior in MS Office products, not Windows.
I love it! 😀
Save As dialog of Windows or the one built into MS Word, for example? Why they even did that, I don’t know
I hate superhero movies. Can’t wait for this crap to be over
ITT people quoting US law as a universal ethical standard
Get outta here with your “no expectation of privacy in public”, that’s a legal concept and has nothing to do with the question. Moreover, that’s only the law in the US, not everywhere
Of course the Dutch version is about water
It isn’t obvious but it’s pretty damn violent in some scenes. I didn’t realize until I tried this on my friend who couldn’t handle it.
Lasagna and sex do not belong in the same sentence, I feel so sorry for you 🙏Your comment is worse than soggy lasagna
Here’s an opposite example: When making lasagna, leave out the bechamel sauce. No more soggy mess

I will never get over people using software as a countable noun. You mean a software program or a software application, not a software
I’m like, it’s that code on the right what I think it is? And it is! I’m so happy now

Autostereoscopic displays are the future. No more stinking wearables
Looks like a face to me
Absolutely. I never cared for his political stuff. Get that shit out of here. Just geek out on historic stuff, but please no more misogynist social darwinist garbage…
