tpihkal,

I’m not misunderstanding you, I disagree with you.

tpihkal,

So the problem is that those people shouldn’t be in prison, not that prisoners should be expected to pay a debt to society.

tpihkal,

Actually, they do exist; that’s kind of the problem.

tpihkal,

I don’t know about elsewhere, but in the US you can run a debit card as a credit card without needing the pin. Pin is only required for cash back.

tpihkal,

I’ve worked in multiple retail stores and not a single one of them would do that. If the power went out, they lock the door. So that absolutely doesn’t work in the short term.

Long term? Idk, how long can you hold out w/o spending money?

tpihkal,

You also won’t have that money to spend if the power goes out.

tpihkal, (edited )

It is not hard to rack up $300 in groceries where I live. I’m lucky to walk out w/o spending at least $100 for my smaller trips.

And that’s just for me.

tpihkal,

That’s just absurd. Who the hell has one anymore? Not to mention they require the card to be embossed and not all are anymore.

tpihkal,

Why wouldn’t you just have your bathroom attendant do it?

tpihkal,

Every upvote changes the password.

tpihkal,

They already have names and this isn’t a dictatorship.

tpihkal,

I just looked and it’s up. The even have an announcement from 2023.

tpihkal,

It did back in, I think, the early 2010’s. For some reason it popped into my head tonight and was tickled to find that appears to be alive and well, and as usual…closed for new registration.
