All things were doable before. The point is that they were manual extra steps.

How about two gym memberships and a library card?

Next step: the great wall of great britain. Protecting citizens from harmful foreign influences.

Beginning of genx is close or a few years after beginning of internet.

It wasn’t something Joe Random could use even decade or two after, but just mentioning for correct perspective.

We also desperately need a non-US archive.

Chickens really love bugs, maggots etc on the regular.

0% nutrition, 100% cromch.

With a whole ton of ban worthy cancer in the comments.

Works for something like PSN. I see cards for sale in local shops. They can presumably be used to claim some funny money in the service that you can pay with.

Steam could probably do the same, but would suck for a smaller operation.

There used to be some cash to BTC machines that would work with any service.

Spam in, spam out, profit in the middle.

It might be able to give you tables or otherwise collated sets of information about multiple products etc.

I don’t know if Google does, but LLMs can. Also do unit conversions. You probably still want to check the critical ones. It’s a bit like using an encyclopedia or a catalog except more convenient and even less reliable.

Always cut the cards and smile when you lose.

Or

Forewarned is forearmed.

I disagree on even that. It should be enough to have some trusted “notary” tick a box that they have verified your driver’s license as valid. It should not be stored out sent anywhere at any time. Just showed to a human. Regularly, if needed.

And/or windows admins.

Not to mention the verse will be in the old testament, i.e. the non-Christian part.

Maybe he already has one cool nerd and is looking for a few more.

I have bought a few otherwise hard to find books on Amazon. Actual paper books. At least used to be possible.
