A few months back, my wife got social engineered and someone got into our bank account and Zelled themselves $1,000. This was a mess but we changed our bank account and eventually got our money back. The last step was to re-activate her Zelle, which we had our bank deactivate while we were figuring everything out.

My wife called today and got transferred to a Zelle agent, who said that her account is going to remain suspended and there's nothing that can be done to reactivate it.

We're trying to escalate with the people at our bank who helped us get our money back, but is there any other way around this to get her Zelle reactivated?

I preordered my Pixel 11 Pro today and went to order the case I've been using for years with my phones, the Spigen Thin Fit, only to see it not available for any of the Pixel 11 series lineup. Really disappointing.

I also checked the recent iPhone, the 17e, and that didn't have Thin Fit available for it either. Are they discontinuing the Thin Fit line?

It looks like they might be using Nano Pop as a replacement, but it looks more bulky to me. Can anyone compare it?

Before I set up a passkey, I was able to set up purchase verification via a password on my PS5. However now that I enabled a passkey, a purchase was able to be put through without verification. When I went on the PS5 to enable it, it said it was disabled because I have a passkey.

I still need some way to protect my purchases even though I use a passkey. Is there a way (or feature planned) to have a separate PIN created when making purchases?

I know they've rolled out free WiFi to all Rewards members, but last time I flew they also offered an option to purchase it.

Does buying it give you any benefits? Faster speeds or anything? The last time I used the free one it was pretty unreliable, and I'd consider forking down the $8 to get better service.

So I was thinking about how a future war could play out, far in the future between two races that have developed FTL technology.

A lot of stories talk about FTL ships. It's a staple of sci-fi going back decades.

But have any stories talked about FTL weapons? Let's say there are two planets in a war where Planet A started a war with Planet B, 100 light years apart. Planet B then attaches an FTL drive to an asteroid, and directs it at Planet A. Even the smallest of asteroids moving at light speed would be cataclysmic to the planet, but the most interesting thing is that because it's moving at FTL speeds, the weapon could hit the planet before Planet A even started the war.

It's essentially a time traveling planet killer. Are there any stories that explore something like this?
