Yes.

No it’s not. Speaking as someone who specifically has this problem: even eliminating all possible distractions does not do the trick.

Re:Why America's prisons are an unconstitutional moral horror (2019) on Monday April 05, 2021 @08:18PM (#26706438)

The implication of your comment is that there is something inherent in black people that makes them more likely to end up in prison. Are sure you want go down that road?

Though it pains me a little to acknowledge that the Sociopath in Chief could be capable of anything that could possibly be construed as ‘good,’ gonna have to agree. Seconded.

Re:How is NYC subway OMNY able to take payment while phone is locked? on Wednesday September 09, 2020 @10:25PM (#24428318)

What is the “pass” here? It’s my phone with a card in the apple wallet. So you’re saying there is no payment information in the phone?

You don’t need to sign up for OMNY. Someone who’s never used it before merely needs to hold up their phone (with Apple wallet set up) to a turnstile and the fare is deducted.

How is NYC subway OMNY able to take payment while phone is locked?

Posted by narshian on Wednesday September 09, 2020 @09:57AM
from the self-post dept.

Apple Pay requires confirmation with the double click and Face ID, but OMNY is able to take payment merely by device proximity. Guessing this is NFC-based. But without confirmation? Aren’t there dangerous security implications to the mechanism behind whatever technique is being used here? Thanks

Sorry, if you’re eating at Burger King you don’t get to be righteously indignant. Somebody please drop this guy into a meat grinder.
