  • Every country has a different way of securing cards, and north america sucks at it.

    Depending on the payment processor, here in Canada you need my card number, as well as one or two of the following: PIN, Postal Code, CVV/CVC, a voice changer and my mother’s maiden name, etc to do a transaction without my physical card.

    With my physical card you don’t even need that for $2-300 purchases (depending on retailer), or more if the retailer hasn’t blocked swiping/the thief has access to a swiping card reader.








  • Just a heads up for screenshotting webtoons; you can do it if you load it up in your browser instead.

    That being said, for ongoing series, I use the Mihon/tachiyomi webtoons extension, and if I can’t read a series because its locked the mangasee extension rehosts everything the moment it is free (and usually the last few chapters are free for at least a little bit before their shit paywall goes up).

    My biggest issue with webtoons is that basically no translation group will touch a series hosted there, and that webtoons doesn’t hire skilled translators/typesetters, so it always feels like I am reading a fan translation.
