A quotation from Chamfort

There are more fools than wise men, and even in the wise there is more folly than wisdom.
 
[Il y a plus de fous que de sages, et dans le sage même, il y a plus de folie que de sagesse.]

Nicolas Chamfort (1741-1794) French writer, epigrammist (b. Nicolas-Sébastien Roch)
Products of Perfected Civilization [Produits de la Civilisation Perfectionée], Part 1 “Maxims and Thoughts [Maximes et Pensées],” ch. 2, ¶ 149 (1795) [tr. Merwin (1969)]

Is it really #Wise ... to ever use #AmazonPayment ?

"If your Wise account details are or have been entered into #Amazon Seller Central, Amazon may ask us to send them details about you, your accounts, #payments from those accounts since 1st January 2015, "

" If you do not wish for Wise to provide the above information to Amazon, you should not provide your Wise account details to Amazon"

(Anyone read the full Wise t&c?)

Are you excitable {Def Leppard}?
Do you love Amber (not Orange) monitors? Do you love the feel of CRT radiation right at your brains?

Do you love the color of a Wise terminal running at 80 by 25 columns?

I have a photograph for you, of a functioning 80x25 Wise serial terminal, a terminal so old, even in the year when we set up the internet in my country, it was considered super unique and ancient.

Are you ready for it?

Ta-da!
