Converting ADSL to Ethernet in IT Support ·
fadedorca66 said:Yeah, but using phone line (flat) cable isn't going to cut it since it's not twisted...

I'm pretty sure it has to be. Even the standard specs for phone lines call for twisted pair. I mean, can ADSL even function if the wires aren't twisted at all?

I’m no expert on this stuff, but you've gotta run one wire to pins 1 and 2, then the other to 3 and 6. Pins 4, 5, 7, and 8 are just dead weight...

Even though there are 8 wires in the cable, 100BASE-TX only actually uses 4 of them.

Yeah, looks like everything's moving over to Visa.

I'm still on the beta version, so I completely blanked... maybe that's why.

I can handle everything through the app now too, but I haven't bothered updating it yet. No updates available on my end—the last one was this morning (some changes to Venmo), and back then, you couldn't even set up a virtual card.
Btw., my app still looks totally different from that screenshot ironcyclist58 posted.
My virtual Visa shows up on my tablet under Card, right alongside the physical one, not under Bank of America like his does.

No need, once I activated my Visa through the web portal, it popped up in the Venmo app automatically. 🤷

Just checked the site and looks like I've got a virtual Visa. 👍
Guess I'm clearly running an outdated version of the Google Play Store app.

The icon layout at the bottom looks different on my end too.
It goes Home Depot, Visa, FedEx, PayPal, then Bank of America.
I don't see Visa on yours.
For me, clicking Visa pulls up all the info and settings for the physical card.
Where did they hide that stuff on your version?

Not happening on my end.

So, this company has zero connection to the first one?

Whatever happened to the old Venmo?

It’s pretty obvious that there’s way less info floating around at the DMV than there used to be back under the old federal guidelines. One of the whole points of GDPR is that you're only supposed to collect the bare minimum needed to get the job done...

The old FBI setup didn't follow the rules, so they shut it down. They retooled everything to meet the standards, and that’s how the new agency came to be...

David Barrett85 said:Good grief, of course an insurance company can hike their rates whenever they feel like it. Even the federal government's oversight at Deloitte has seen price shifts twice now, where the updated premiums were automatically charged to every single policyholder without much fanfare.

If you aren't happy with the change, you have the right to terminate the contract within 30 days of receiving notice.

And regarding that secondary coverage I mentioned—Allstate will essentially insure you if your out-of-pocket costs exceed the premium, though they'll likely just bump your rate next year, leaving you with no way to opt out.

As long as we just accept this kind of crap as "normal," we aren't ever going to get ahead...

My bad, I just realized that only applies to the discount. Still, we’re missing an actual article explaining how the whole premium structure can shift...
