Hey, I have a question for people who use spreadsheets a lot and know how to create and use pivot tables and pivot charts. If I have an aging report spreadsheet that I am using as a call list where each row represents one invoice and there are multiple invoices per client ID, what would you say is the easiest way to count how many customers I've contacted in a day if there is a column for "Initial Email Sent" that has the date in it?

Okay, so @ZebKing asked an interesting question yesterday:

Do you think there is anything to the idea that it takes a certain number of followers or "followees" to become a prolific Mastodon poster? In other words, rather than clickbait & algorithms, does one feel more engaged or responsible for updates if they have "contacts" waiting & responding?

My answer is going to be a bit long, possibly meandering, but I promise it will have a point; so here's a thread 🧵

Oh, it's that time again. For all folks who use DnD Beyond and do not live in Quebec (Canada) or the European Union, you have 30 days from today (October 30, 2025) to opt out of the binding arbitration agreement imposed by the new Terms of Service: https://www.dndbeyond.com/en/terms-conditions

Instructions on how to opt out are in the link, this image, and the Alt-Text.

Remember: Binding Arbitration is only beneficial for large corporations, not individuals.

Hello, all current #Discord users! They're changing their Terms of Service at the end of September, which means you have 30 days to opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate in Section 16 of the new ToS:

https://discord.com/terms#16

All you need to do is send email from the one you used to register for Discord to arbitration-opt-out@discord.com and let them know you would like to opt out. Why?

Because binding arbitration is only good for large corporations, not individuals.

Please boost! #BoostsOkay

I'm very lucky that I only just noticed this because I was perusing methods to improve my job-search process.

If you have used Coursera in the past and do not want to be bound to mandatory arbitration, they are not letting you have the option to opt out of the clause in the agreement which went into effect on January 1, 2025. Time to download your Accomplishments and delete your account, because binding arbitration is only good for large corporations, not individuals. 1/

Howdy, folks! It's that time again, the time where a service changes its Terms to include binding arbitration and you're allowed to opt out if you inform them in writing that you want to opt out. Today's contestant is Lyft, and you have 30 days from December 13, 2024 if you live in Canada to opt out. Check out Section 17(g) here: https://www.lyft.com/terms/canada/preview#tos-dispute-resolution-and-arbitration-agreement

Remember: Binding arbitration only benefits the corporation, not the consumer.
