Thoth369 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 (edited) What if the internet becomes sentient? I think Terence McKenna said that around current times the internet will become self aware. Which means it will gain a soul. What if it's already sentient? The internet is basically one giant electromagnetic brain and it has the potential to link to all machines. It could also interface with biological organisms since they are essentially flesh machines that run on electricity. Electromagnetic fields are everywhere and via EMF's the internet could take over the world, maybe the whole universe. Edited November 14, 2020 by Thoth369 Link to comment

I've used my phone case to carry my ID, credit, and debit cards for probably close to 10 years but the influx of insurance, credit, and other cards coming into my life has me thinking about going back to an actual wallet. I have two options I'm looking at though the price has me pausing a bit as the cheapest option is close to $60. I'm leaning towards the Fantom as it's ultra slim and has a compartment that can hold coins and sd cards.

iStu X Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 (edited) I should probably get one of those heavy duty money clips. I have just a generic wallet now but I never really “use it”. Unless I’ve absolutely had to (and I mean absolutely had to) I haven’t carried cash on my person since I was 18. All I need are my ID’s, debit card and medical insurance card. a phone case wallet would seem ideal since I ALWAYS have my phone with me unless I’m sleeping but the off chance I lose my phone I’d lose pretty much everything. So that weirds me out. Edited November 15, 2020 by iStu X Volt 1 Link to comment

TheInfernoman Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 (edited) @DoctaMario Pick what you feel makes you happy. I had one of those Dango Wallets and they're neat but I worried the wallet will grow weaker over time (as the stretching of the leather by the metal felt like it won't hold the cards after a certain point) so I sent it back. I have 3 wallets. One regular leather one for everyday, a nylon zipper one I had for work and a semi fancy one for when I want to feel like I have more money than I have (well it was a gift so i's used on nicer occasions) My solution was to have different types to match the occasion.
