Favoriting Bryce: Playlist from May 17, 2024 Favoriting

I never miscue a record. I am punctual, well-prepared, and dislike clutter. Outgoing and helpful, I'm always appropriately dressed. I do not behave erratically and have excellent penmanship. My CD's never skip, and I am in good health. I like all the notes, in any order.

“hacked” in the sense that the card number and exp date (iirc) can be read by a rfid reader (if it is close enough to the card). some folks carry their chipped cards in a little sleeve to prevent the skimming.

It can be hacked from a contact tap also. A lot harder to hack if the card is being used as a stored card on a phone from Google/Apple wallet. Basically any time the actual physical card with the chip is in play, it can be skimmed.

...this on ShoutCast from an odd source called 'Radio Caprice', quite apparently out of Russia - & featuring continuous streams specific to any number of genres...
3.) So if you know any other good streams for Indian Musics I'd love to know.
4.) Oh ...there's this thing 'Radio Mantra' :

Interesting question. My understanding is 'arpeggio' refers to playing the notes in a chord separately - while Indian Musics are generally Modal, meaning sticking to the notes within a very specific scale - essentially, on a Drone...

In my case, I went to my online banking and found out that a total of 18000 EUR (way more than I had in the account) had been transferred. At that time, my bank used a paper list of one-time log-in codes that had to be used sequentially, and I had never let that list out of my hand. But the bank at first refused to believe that someone could hack into their own server and access both the lists and the usage data. But eventually they did realize it was a bigger hack and it seems they finallycaught the guy. luckily, I got my money back.

I use cash as much as I can. But for groceries, liquor store, online stuff, concert tix, and pet food, I use the card. I like to limit how tracked my activities are to the extent that it's practical. And since I try to shop local as much as I can, I try to help them avoid credit card fees.

But they don't mint enough cash to keep up with the pet food expenses.

For daily activities, I use a credit/debit card attached to my checking account, where I never keep a lot of money, and where it can't be used beyond that sum. And I have a credit card that I only use when necessary and freeze when I'm not using it (and pay off asap). I learned the hard way that a credit card is like a hand in your pocket--somebody else's hand who you don't want in there...
