Religion / Company Makes Chips To Be Implanted In Employees' by BoyeYemi(m): 4:39pm On Jul 24, 2017
Welcome to the future?

A Wisconsin technology company is offering its employees microchip implants that can be used to scan into the building and purchase food at work. Whether or not to get a chip is up to the employee to decide.

Three Square Market, a company that provides technology for break-room or micro markets, has over 50 employees who plan to have the devices implanted, KSTP-TV reported. The tiny chip, which uses RFID technology or Radio-Frequency Identification, can be implanted between the thumb and forefinger "within seconds," according to a statement from the company.

"It's the next thing that's inevitably going to happen, and we want to be a part of it," Three Square Market Chief Executive Officer Todd Westby told the station.

The company, which is based in River Falls, Wisc., envisions the rice-sized micro chip allowing employees to easily pay for items, access the building and their computers all with a scan of their hand.

STORY FROM LENDINGTREE
Own a home? Forget social security (and do this)
"We foresee the use of RFID technology to drive everything from making purchases in our office break room market, opening doors, use of copy machines, logging into our office computers, unlocking phones, sharing business cards, storing medical/health information, and used as payment at other RFID terminals," Westby said in a company statement. "Eventually, this technology will become standardized allowing you to use this as your passport, public transit, all purchasing opportunities, etc."

And while microchipping employees may sound like something out of a horror film, the company is partnering with Swedish company BioHax International, which already has many "chipped" employees.

Employees are not required to get the microchips, and Westby told the station there is no GPS tracking.

TV/Movies / Re: Can Anyone Recall The Title Of This Movie????? by BoyeYemi(m): 1:18am On May 27, 2015
This song got stuck in my head today, so I googled the first line, and here's the top hit for it. Movie title - Just a Night

Song lyrics

The sun that rise in the morning, is a sign of hope for a brighter day
Crystal rain drops in the season, brings forth life in abundance
Yes our Lord is life, in every born child
Yes our Lord is hope! He makes our dreams come true

So in happy times and trying times, we praise the Lord
Without ceasing, we praise The Lord
That's our decision, we praise The Lord

La lalalala la la la la lalalala



Still looking for the song online though.

Family / Re: Should He Fight For Custody Of His Kids?? by BoyeYemi(m): 9:15am On Jan 13, 2013
Its the money that is intoxicating. I heard nurses in the US earn a lot, most ladies, when there is an exponential increase in their income can be worse than men.

@ op The children may be suffering but i respect the man, what do you want from him? To beg the children to love him? That is impossible with their mom there to continuously poison their mind!!!

To pretend that he is needed where he is obviously not wanted? To force himself to maintain ties in a loveless and dead relationship?

His decision is simple, sever ties completely (beyond the $1,000) with his previous life and move on.

Unfortunately, the children may end up like most African American children from broken homes which to me is the saddest part in this story.

In my opinion, the guy can probably not father a child, or the probability of him fathering 1 is low thus the request for DNA.

I don't see anyway out for the lady because, as the only options open to her are

1) Not marry the man after the DNA: The problem here is, hardly anyone wants a single parent for a wife, thus she might have problems getting a husband.

2) Marry the man after the DNA: The problem here is, she will end up marry someone who probably does not love her, or is incapable of trusting her.

NOTE: Abortion is not an option

I think there is more to this though.

Phones / Re: What Really Made Steve Jobs So Angry At Google? by BoyeYemi(m): 12:32pm On Sep 11, 2012
Its simple, Jobs felt betrayed because Google went into the hardware business, specifically the phone business. I guess he assumed there was an unwritten agreement for neither company's to compete with each other. Thus the statement " we didn't go into the search business".
