Is there anybody out there?

Post by Jim @ Jawa »

The last seven topics were posted by me.
Is there anybody out there besides AI?
I have discovered with my recent experience on the Internet that AI is downright and FULL-BLOWN STUPID. The credit union in Alaska, where my direct deposit uses a separate company to check for fraud on my credit/debit cards. During the last three days I've had charges blocked/denied by the so-called security company, which is an AI system that the security company uses. I have to call Alaska after 1 o'clock in the morning to take the block off my cards. And about makes the security company and that fucking AI system that they use downright stupid. As they say in the computer world "garbage in equals garbage out".
With Maria's cancer treatment that means I need that card to access my money which is denied frequently. Before the cancer, it wasn't quite as problematic as it is now. Like I didn't have enough shit to worry about without the goddamn Credit union screwing with my money.
It's time to go back to Navy Fedral Credit Union not because of the credit union, but because of their security company.
:evil:
You guys stay safe and as happy as this life will allow.

I really don't understand the lack of traffic Jim. Like you, I post stuff and the only things that see it are web bots.

BTW, I just renewed the security certificate using some of your last donation.

I’m still alive, and wish there was more traffic. I’m afraid us old guys are just dying off one by one, and we’re too dull to attract young blood.

I’ve been making hay; cleaning up fallen trees after a bad storm; re-pointing bricks on our 100 year old chimney on the smoke house; cutting and splitting firewood; visiting grandkids; pissing and moaning about the state of the world on Facebook. Not much, but it keeps me off the streets. Hope you both keep hanging in there.
