Ah, don’t you love technological progress?
It's working now, but I needed to use my wife's phone to get past the Samsung thing. I have no idea how it's supposed to work for single people. :P
This is reminding me of when I was finding accommodation in Paris. The accommodation needed a French bank account for booking, but to make a French bank account I had to first have an address in France…

It's an even more vicious circle,
by asking employees to behave like algorithmes,
they can be replaced without loss,
get disillusioned people to accept it,
and finally believe in artificial “intelligence”...

Soon, humanism will become
the name of the retrograde opponents of happy modernity...

I am in Maryland for the LCC. Silver Spring, MD has the absolute worst state of its road system I’ve seen outside of Creve Coeur, MO. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.
