SnipingNinja,

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

SnipingNinja,

I was quoting the Anakin Padme meme format

SnipingNinja,

Only if it’s in both eyes, right?

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,

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,

WTF, didn’t know this. This is horrible

SnipingNinja,

That’s what not being a human battery does to you

!This propaganda was bought to you by the machines!<

SnipingNinja,

No issue, gave me an opportunity to joke around.

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,

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,

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,

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, (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,

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.
