Re:Apple announces Apple Card credit card on Monday March 25, 2019 @05:13PM (#19486789)
I'm guessing the 'virtual' aspect of this card will be activated relatively soon - before the physical delivery of the new sleek metal card.

Small businesses are the ones who still get bitten by fees, not just on payment processor level but on the physical machines themselves, the fees are still pretty high with some of the larger players locking companies into longer contracts too. [1] This needs to change.

There seems to be a lot of consolidation playing out too with the likes of WorldPay (who are the largest payment processor here in the UK) getting acquired [2].

I guess this is true too, we're moving so fast with software.

A few programes here and there do still utilize a floppy disk as a mark to save something though.

I think it will take time, keyboard, when first encounters can be hard to use, saying that, younger people these days have access to a keyboard almost 24/7 whether it be iPads or mobiles that they use.

I'd like to see how kids of this generation can manage using a franking machine [1] or even a photocopier.

Our currently generation 25-40 used floppy disks at some point, now it's just an icon on your software suite [2]. Will this be the case for keyboard in 10 years time? Will the physical version be needed?

I work in adtech, the number of sites using a 'Facebook tag/pixel' is way too high for this to happen. Every single user who hits a site with this tag has their data collected.

People fly all the time, that's also bad for the environment. Don't do it...

Google have recently rolled out a 'global tag' to replace the 'floodlight' tracking code they usually use, this was last week.
