Sure you can, but how exactly do you plan on getting them up there?

Isn't Chime actually better? Transferwise hits you with fees for currency exchange and whenever you top up with a card, but with Chime, it's basically free.

Those sticks are mostly meant for desktops, not laptops.

Unless the merchant is being super picky about needing a credit card specifically—you know, like when you're dropping a deposit at a Hertz rental counter or checking into a Hilton—it should work pretty much anywhere that takes Mastercard.

Here is the form.

Other than that, your only real option is to mess around with some app cloning software (like Parallel Space or whatever)... that way you don't need two separate phones, though you'll still need two different numbers. Honestly, I haven't actually tried it myself...

Of course, given how you use it, those limits are basically doubled on you—you probably figured that out already. 😉

There’s clearly a reason why it isn't there. 😉

The game isn't even running on Flash.

What's the point of even needing that?

Just the most basic, run-of-the-mill video library on Cairo, without any plugins or anything extra attached to it.

I’ve found that using the library over at Cairo works pretty well for that kind of stuff.

I mean, most of those filtering programs let you plug in your own custom blocklists and stuff...

Have you tried clicking—or maybe even double-clicking—on that specific spot where that info is displayed?

I’m just guessing here, but I'll leave room for the possibility that things don't play out quite the same way, so consider this my disclaimer. 😬

I can't speak for other versions, but with Microsoft Word 2013, if you just click on the word count in the status bar, a little window pops up with all sorts of data, including exactly what you're looking for.

Look, I’m not a Chase customer, but logically you can’t see pending charges before they hit. It’s not like the bank has a crystal ball; those transactions aren't under their thumb, they depend entirely on whoever's receiving the payment.

It’s not enough that I already have to give them my shoe size and my exact hair count; now I have to sign paperwork every single week just to prove I'm not an American taxpayer, as if the laws of the USA somehow don't apply to me instead of local regulations.
The only thing they haven't asked for yet is a DNA sample. Honestly, I'd probably volunteer it if they wanted to get their hands on it—it's standard procedure for bankers, after all... my personal little banker. And if the US government actually demanded that, I wouldn't even doubt they'd take it. It's not out of the question soon, since this state is turning into absolute Texas.

So, let's review the lesson: collecting data for non-business purposes without consent is, if I recall correctly, according to GDPR, TOTALLY ILLEGAL!!!!

Look, we aren't talking about handing your fingerprint over to the bank itself, but rather using the fingerprint authentication you already have on your phone to log into the app (if you actually want to, obviously).

If the site isn't based in the States (or maybe somewhere in the EU), then it’s a no from me.

So, basically, Curve is now passing through the transaction type and merchant category directly to the underlying card. If your main card blocks certain stuff—like gambling, for instance—or hits you with extra fees for it, you’re going to run into that same wall even when you're using Curve. It used to be that Curve would just tell the card it was a standard transaction, which let people sneak around those restrictions on their linked cards... but I guess those days are over.
