I think they also eventually caught on with the technology and banned them in my school… And that quote with the calculator in your pocket sounds also familiar xD

I’m currently doing landscaping work around the house and I use the voice assistant all the time to calculate surfaces and volumes, it’s so nice compared to pressing buttons or a touchscreen with dirty gloves. My younger self would be so excited!

We still are!

a friend of mine got a CASIO watch with an integrated IR emitter and would always cause havoc when the TV was out

Meow traveller! My tummy has been empty lately and I require the finest crunchy snacks of the land. Come back with trout or salmon flavored Dreamies and I shall reward you handsomely! Nya~~

That’s exactly where his name comes from :)

Right he’s looking like an old wise Chinese kung fu master ^^

He’s been adopted by my best friends who also have a an older bengal female. I will visit them in a couple of weeks, can’t wait!

Haha don’t get me started with US coins, I also have a fun story there: we arrived fresh off JFK Airport in NYC and headed to our rental apartment in Bedford-Stuyvesant Brooklyn. It was pretty far from the a subway station so we got a connecting bus to get us closer.

The next day, we thought of taking the same bus line to head to Manhattan, except our party of four ended up being expected to pay 4x $2.75 in a machine inside the bus… in coins. That’s 44 quarters. Yup, don’t have that on day 2 of my stay. So we walked 6 blocks.

I visited the UK back in 2022 and I was pretty baffled at how you can universally “tap to pay”. We visited a pub on the coast of Dorset where they wouldn’t even accept cash as a mean of payment. All in all it was nice, because it meant not having to deal with a foreign currency at all, we spent 10 days just using electronic payment, so as a tourist I think it was a good experience.

In Germany, where I live, you’re basically getting nowhere without cash, it’s still very difficult to eat out or buy small food items like bread or a sandwich. There’s also a culture of paying cash for many things, including pricier items like a second hand car! Shop cashiers usually don’t even blink if you try to pay with a 100€ bill (except if you’re coming super early and they don’t have change available yet). It’s not unusual for me to end up drawing a quarter to half my monthly salary in cash.

I first disliked it when I moved from France, but now I think it’s actually good for the society. You always have some change to tip a waiter or give to a beggar, a coin for the cart at the supermarket, get something from a vending machine… Also I live in a very quiet area so getting mugged is very unlikely, making it not so scary to carry cash around.

Thank you 🥰 I’ll do anything for her that’s for sure! The photo was taken yesterday, on her 16th birthday

Monkat!

Yeah we call her our little suricate! She got an ear infection a few years ago and after the surgery her ear structure collapsed. She however still hears well and I help her every week with the cleaning (her favorite moment)

I love when there are solutions for every weird use case ^^
