SnipingNinja,

Triple negative, that’s a rare one

SnipingNinja,

I don’t think a Plan B welded uterus sounds nice, just to clarify, it is the welded uterus that doesn’t sound nice at all, Plan B part is okay.

SnipingNinja,

No issue, gave me an opportunity to joke around.

SnipingNinja,

Answer was just below the post

SnipingNinja,

Just read one like that:

SnipingNinja,

WTF, didn’t know this. This is horrible

SnipingNinja,

It shouldn’t be illegal to sell wet wipes (I assume you meant the flushable variety), just make it illegal to flush it down

SnipingNinja,

Oh the places he’ll go

SnipingNinja,

Only if it’s in both eyes, right?

SnipingNinja,

I was quoting the Anakin Padme meme format

SnipingNinja,

Well, it’s just a compression algorithm, we can apply that

SnipingNinja,

Is that why you’re dying?

SnipingNinja,

Loss is a weird one in how prevalent it became

Not bisexual, still notice that

SnipingNinja,

THROUGH THE ACTUAL CARD READER SO THEY DIDN’T NEED GOOGLE/APPLE/SAMSUNG WALLET WHATEVER THE FUCK

That’s not an issue, I’m assuming you mean the establishment didn’t need it, but just to cover my bases I’ll give you both scenarios:

  • either you’re talking about your phone needing an app, which was still the case for the magnetic card thing, but I doubt you were talking about this.
  • or more likely, you are talking about the place you’re paying needing a new PoS for receiving NFC based payment. In this case the issue is from the retailers trying to get another cut of the money by making you go through their app, when they can receive that payment via tap to pay which is also a thing on new cards, I have used them both in my country without any issue because we don’t have those ass backwards retailers, there’s an issue of the person taking payment being unaware and trying to enable another mobile based payment method instead of just setting it to card based payment.
SnipingNinja,

I am sure it’s because phone companies don’t want to deal with designing, manufacturing, design defects, warranty claims if it fails, etc.

I do wonder if it can’t be done better with programmable magnets, locking one of those in place from the bottom of the device might be interesting.

SnipingNinja,

But imagine notification light on the back, or just look at the nothing phone (though that’s a bit much, which is why we need options)

SnipingNinja,

Idk if that’s another name for them, but what I meant was polymagnets

SnipingNinja,

I know, but that’s not really an app issue, that would be equivalent to complaining about cards without magnetic strip which only rely on NFC. It’s a result of new technology and not some bad idea trying to do things in a different way. It’s like complaining about touch screen tech because you can’t do things the exact way you used to on flip phones.

SnipingNinja,

The magnetic thing was only ever a Samsung thing and it wasn’t as secure as NFC, NFC works basically the same as the thing you’re talking about, its only flaw would be that it doesn’t work with the old style card readers.

SnipingNinja, (edited )

Aah cool, interesting

Edit: let me pick your brain regarding them as it seems you know more about them, is it feasible? What I described that is

SnipingNinja,

They should have seen those returns by now tbh, as it’s for GTA V not VI, but most of the money sent to not the many talented people who made it but the people who paid them a little money (comparatively) upfront to work for them.

I agree with your point otherwise

SnipingNinja, (edited )

The lucky penny is broken af. For example, you can use it to replicate everything else on the list or learn abilities to match them or better.

Basically, it’s exactly how luck is purported to work in various fictional universes. It’s kinda similar to Constantine’s (hellblazer) ability.

Edit: I am seeing people disagree with the penny, but unless the penny is magical in not only giving you luck but also in how the flip goes you can practice to make the flip go in your favour by practicing (I have been able to take the equivalent of a penny in my country and make it fall on the exact side I want almost every time)

With no explicit negative feedback and the penny going dormant in between, you can absolutely practice it. Hell make it so the first time you get the lucky heads you both practice and attempt to make the penny’s lucky effect permanent or at least semipermanent so that it goes in your favour the next fortnight you are supposed to flip it (if it can’t be made permanent without flipping)

SnipingNinja,
