Yesterday I was in line for ordering a coffee :whistle::coffee::giggle: and the guy in front of me ordered one too. He went to pay for it using some type of chip in his hand. He put it to the eftpos machine and the transaction went through. I looked at his hand and you could see this small thing like a small lump raised in his hand. The cashier girl made a big deal of it and he was enjoying the attention he received. I just thought your an idiot and you dont know what you are getting yourself into. Anyway I was so disgusted I nearly forgot to order a coffee :giggle::coffee::coffee:.

Curious...

No doubt 'pos' is "point of sale" - what is 'eft'?

Lunchtime woo hoo and also coffee time.
Electronic Funds transfer at a guess. Not sure if that is correct but came to me as I typed this.
You know the little machine thing that you swipe your card and then type in a pin number. I dont know what you call it there??

here is some stuff I found about this:

Swedish people are getting chip implants to replace cash

GPS Microchip For Humans [Updated 2021]

They have tried this a bunch of ways...and it still doesn't work. The problem is the semiconductors...they are extremely brittle and easily cracked/broken with the normal use of your hands. Then the heat from your body is another hindrance. Then there's the attack by your various immune systems...(our bodies are extremely hostile to foreign invaders)
Even pacemakers have to be replaced regularly.

I wouldn't count on anything computerized working for long. Static electricity still is impossible to get past too. Until they discover a flexible but resilient material for semiconductor Wafers. (Not happening but they are trying)

It's one of those things...the "stamp/mark" is one similar to slavery ownership where in the Old Testament they would do this to a slave wishing permanent ownership by a family and it was done by means of an awl through the ear. The Romans used similar behaviors except it was done by branding on the hands or forehead.
Which the current Christian community really doesn't want to recognize that people were once that barbaric or desperate.
 
Currently I'm concerned about coffee....and consuming sufficient amounts...and whether there's going to be enough. (Price is skyrocketing today)
But I own coffee futures...and have enjoyed a return of 20%-25% so far.

Looking for coffee to continue to climb too. Gonna be a good Christmas

Yes indeed. Don't think that she is sipping decaf. Cute little flutterby.
