  A client wanted paid roles in their discord. Here's the whole flow. User visit site, discord login, checkout in crypto or PayPal, payment webhook hits my backend, verify, bot assigns the role, cron watches expiry. Sounds clean. It wasn't. The webhook fired twice on one payment. Same user, two events, milliseconds apart. Without idempotency keys that's a double charge or a corrupted subscription record. Fix: every payment event gets a unique key written to the database before anything is processed. The second event sees the key and exits. Boring code. Saves you a refund and a very annoyed customer.

  @linuxuser1996 @flexfree27 Why its not the same? Before I deleted my account on this datacollecting App I just used browser without problems. The difference is browser is more private and more anonymity. Paypal is ****, they refused me giving a (full) data copy on DSGVO standards. Everyone should delete

  I was 333rd in the queue. Got kicked out. Went back in at 22900, waited till it down to let me back in. Put the wrong code in. Couldn't claim anywhere near my normal seats and ended up in the Riverbank, then it wouldn't submit payment and I had to switch to Paypal. FFS

  @GretchenPSmith Gretchen, yeah, you do... that is how Paypal operates, same with X, FB, Insta, Visa, Mastercard, Your bank... we used to simply call them server farms. Data Centers are as necessary for the world to operate today as is oil. Get rid of them, the world STOPS DEAD

  @cloverclubcos If it’s not too much trouble!!! I’d really appreciate it if you could help me with this. I can pay for the item and shipping via PayPal, and I also have a forwarding warehouse that can ship it to Taiwan for me, which should be a little cheaper than shipping it directly🥹

  @stphnmaher It’s gonna be a little more involved than you think- If Canada’s goal is true technological independence from the United States, a Canadian sovereign cloud is only the first piece of an enormous puzzle: Canada would have to replace or become independent of Amazon/AWS, Microsoft, Google and Oracle for cloud; NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Marvell, Micron, Texas Instruments, Analog Devices and GlobalFoundries for processors, AI accelerators, memory, networking, communications and other semiconductors; Dell, HPE, Supermicro, IBM, Western Digital and Seagate for servers, storage and enterprise hardware; Cisco, Arista, Juniper/HPE, F5 and Ciena for networking and communications infrastructure; Microsoft, Apple, Google, Adobe, Salesforce, ServiceNow, Oracle, Workday, Intuit and Broadcom/VMware for operating systems, productivity, mobile platforms, databases, CRM, ERP, virtualization and enterprise applications; Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Fortinet, Zscaler, Okta, Cloudflare, Cisco and Microsoft for cybersecurity, identity and internet protection; OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, Microsoft and NVIDIA for frontier AI models, development platforms and AI infrastructure; GitHub/Microsoft, IBM/Red Hat, Docker, Datadog, Snowflake, MongoDB, Confluent, Elastic and HashiCorp/IBM for software development, containers, databases, data management and infrastructure automation; Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Stripe, Apple and Google for major payment and digital-wallet infrastructure; Apple, Google and Qualcomm for smartphones and mobile ecosystems; Akamai and Cloudflare for content delivery and internet infrastructure; and, critically, Cadence and Synopsys for semiconductor-design software plus Applied Materials, Lam Research and KLA for the equipment needed to manufacture advanced chips. Even that doesn’t completely solve the problem, because Canadian, European, Japanese, Taiwanese and Korean products frequently incorporate American chips, software, patents, design tools or manufacturing equipment somewhere in their supply chains.

  Apparently PayPal was having some issues so I added stripe in the meantime. PayPal should be straightened out by Tuesday as they need those test deposits to clear in my new business account. You can buy via Stripe now.

  Night, Everyone!🚇 stable-2:native I've been digging into Stable's team and honestly? I'm conflicted. The CTO is Sam Kazemian who built Frax Finance to $1.4B. Huge credibility. Tether's CEO is advising. PayPal invested. But here's what nobody's talking about: the founder Joshua Harding quietly stepped down as CEO with zero public announcement. Brian Mehler took over silently. And apparently whales deposited USDT before the official window opened. That's insider-trading territory. They have a grant program but zero named dApps. I'm watching closely but not trusting blindly yet. Tag a friend who researches teams before investing.

  @robertromano @JonMalin 1. Go to PayPal Resolution Center, select the transaction, choose Report a Problem, then choose "Significantly Not as Described." Don't select "Unauthorized Activity," as PayPal will instantly deny the claim once they verify you authorized initial payment. Upload evidence. 1/2

  @PayPal I have a problem with my account where payments I send get reversed every couple of days for absolutely zero reason. Frustrating isn’t the word. And speaking to overseas CSR is getting absolutely nowhere.
