If your business is https://dipsway.com, I could see why a merchant provider might terminate your account.
You're broadly wading into dangerous waters and a lot of what's on your website would probably get you regulated by the SEC, but the language used on your website would be alarming to any risk analyst. "Pump and dump" schemes are illegal in the US (and I presume literally everywhere else), and you're using similar verbiage right on the main page of your site. It almost looks like you're advocating customers get in on the ground floor of the pump and dump scam, which is certainly illegal.
Separately, from a risk perspective, they're also asking themselves "If this algorithm is so good, why would they sell it for $70/mo and instead just using the algorithm to make all the money for themselves, this is going to be chargeback central when the algorithm doesn't deliver".
We aren't selling dreams or magic pills.
We are selling a bot powered with AI that places good buy and sell orders.
There are plenty of services that offer the same exact thing.
And to be realistic, it's full of fraud services who actually sell dreams and promises when in reality don't work at all.
It's not about selling something too good to be true, it's about selling something that can help and bring value to the average crypto trader.
> Supported crypto use cases on Stripe
> If you are interested in using Stripe for a supported use case, please get in touch. During the onboarding process you will be asked to provide additional documentation about your business and will need explicit approval before you can start using Stripe.
This seems pretty explicit to me, and it doesn't sound like this was something you did. It may be something that is allowed with that extra documentation, and that may be why the competitors you mention have managed to make it work.
If it is a bot that tells you when to trade profitably then it is a get rich quick scheme, just turn up the leverage and if it works you'll be rich quick.
If it doesn't actually work well enough for you to get rich yourself then you are selling false hope and little better than a scam.
If it's profitable but all you want is to help the common trader than give it away free.
There is zero possibility your product works as advertised and you're selling it though.
If your response to potential customers is this passive aggressive, you’re going to have trouble finding people to pay regardless of having a stripe account or not.
I’m literally reading the copy on your marketing page. If that’s nit enough to entice someone to do more research then the onus is on you to have more clearer and more appealing copy.
Check to see whether it's USB or Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt docks are more expensive, but considerably more efficient and faster than USB (assuming your laptop/device supports Thunderbolt).
Thunderbolt docks are basically PCIe extension devices, whereas USB docks attach everything as USB, with all the common challenges USB has on systems (like dropped audio when the CPU is busy).
Thanks for the info. The dock is the CalDigit TS3 Plus dock and I’m using it with an LG monitor. Their page says it’s a Thunderbolt dock so I wonder if there’s anything else about this particular dock that could be causing this issue. Btw when the monitor was connected over HDMI, it was fine playing audio.
That's pretty interesting. Might be worth trying a new displayport cable, or checking whether there's a firmware update for either the dock or monitor.
kbin.social and lemmy.world are starting to get traction in the "fediverse". I think they're probably far more viable long term solutions to the reddit problem. That would never have been needed if Reddit didn't insist on shooting their own foot.
I agree, but it's a lot more work, and each individual federated instance has a lot of control and data. It's definitely better, but you'd still need to migrate content if your instance owner goes ape.
Then host your own instance. That's actually more work, but worth it if you don't trust whomever is hosting your community. Should become fairly straightforward once you have parties taking care of the technical details (there probably are already some).
Agree completely. The author also suggests that you don't want "see through" mode coming on everytime someone walks by, but that's exactly what I want. I don't want to be in a public area, even a plane, unaware of my surroundings.
If I'm watching on a 7" screen on a seatback, I still have peripheral vision. I want to maintain that. I want to see on the area that isn't the screen, I just want something bigger than 7", and the ability to do things besides just watch movies/TV (like, my own content or games....).
And, DAC has lower latency and uses less power than 10GBASE-T even at the lower 10Gb speed (e.g., due to latency you don't want storage over 10GBASE-T). And, DACs contain fewer parts that can fail than optical transceivers (esp. short passive DAC cables) so more reliable (as long as not physically manipulated) than fiber + optical transceivers.
DAC cables are a bit harder to route than fiber though.
And, DAC has lower latency and uses less power than 10GBASE-T (e.g., even at the lower 10Gb speed due to latency you don't want storage over 10GBASE-T).

I mean... working fine, in that the only people who buy them are pretty techy.
It's not so easy to get Win 10 working right, it requires a fair bit of effort, and the experience sucks.
I'm not so sure Steam would be super happy if Epic started distributing a new frontend and store through their marketplace. I'm quite sure they wouldn't let them.
Steam sells games which require third-party launchers to work. For example: Red Dead Redemption 2 requires the Rockstar Launcher to work (many a negative steam review regarding this), and this launcher allows you to buy other Rockstar games (The GTA franchise, LA Noire and more).
So yeah, Steam definitely allows distribution of storefronts.
They distribute games from both EA and Ubisoft that force you to use both companies launchers, that also just so happen to come with there own stores attached.
There’s a big gap between $5 and $21… for now. That I have no doubt they’ll spend all their time building features so they can increase prices to close that gap.
A big argument against LVT that people (often landlords, but many "socialists" too) is that rents will simply rise to reflect the extra cost to the landlord
Same with increase interest rates
It's certainly widely believed that "price = cost + %profit" rather than "price = level at which maximum profit will be achieved after factoring in market segregation"
I mean, LVT or not, that is probably true. If the price increase affects the entire market, landlords will exit the market until equilibrium is restored (or renters will increase their willingness to pay a higher rate).
If market price < cost + desired margin, some sellers will exit, reducing supply and increasing market price.
LVT also only applies to commodities, of which software isn’t really.
> landlords will exit the market until equilibrium is restored
Thus a increasing the supply of properties being sold, and thus lowering the price for those who want to buy, allowing more to buy, reducing the demand for places to rent. Win-Win.
With LVT (or higher interest rate on a variable rate mortgage) the parasitical landlord can't simply stop having a tenant, as they're still liable for the costs. They have to offer something more than the intrinsic cost of land they occupy to make it productive enough for someone to pay them.
> LVT also only applies to commodities, of which software isn’t really.
There's a strong argument that copyright (specifically that used to prevent people from using it) would count as "Land" in the economic sense - it drives rentseeking and monopoly behavior - https://progressandpoverty.substack.com/p/possibility-space-...
This definitely seems like something that's more about development priority that they're trying to sell as a feature....
Realistically, since they just autoescalate if the incident isn't acknowledged it appears, one would think any/all notification methods would be a positive. Let the user (or their manager...) sort out what method(s) works best for them.
