The trend is to either eliminate these exams or make them so easy that everyone passes. Why? Because we are unable to deal with the fact that certain ethnic groups consistently fail at dramatically higher rates than others. See the movement to eliminate the SAT and LSAT, to eliminate magnet programs, etc.

>So, the current situation if you get scammed via Venmo/PayPal or other electronic payment methods is for the FBI / local law enforcement to subpoena the provider for records about the incident.

Imagine so confidently posting something so wrong. No, that’s not how it works in the US. Every credit card company (and PayPal-like company) has a massive anti-fraud department that both automatically detects fraud and responds to consumer complaints. If I see a charge I don’t recognize, or a seller fleeced me, I call my credit card company and they give me my money back and fine the shit out of the seller’s account unless the seller can prove to them that the charge is legitimate. Yes, ultimate recourse is to court, but very rarely is that necessary.

Don’t eat the bugs. You have an innate disgust reaction to bugs and to the idea of eating them. It evolved over millions of years. Heed nature’s warning. They only eat bugs in places where it was historically necessary due to extreme famine. These activists trying to get you to eat bugs don’t have your best interests at heart. Eat meat. It is one of the great liberties man enjoys.

This is a dead end. FreeBSD, lmao. Why not choose Linux, which supports way more hardware and features. Not promising for the general quality of decision making.
