That seems good. Though I wonder if there is a third party behind those gift cards and the transaction process from them. I suppose as long as it’s not Visa it’s a good option.
I mean, what’s your definition of “safe?” There are benefits and drawbacks to every form of currency. Credit is centralized and benefits massive pieces of shit and requires computing power. Cash is untraceable, and it doesn’t fund anything in particular (minus the federal reserve, but that’s a huge complicated stupid convo), but if you lose it or get it stolen, you can’t file a complaint and get it credited back to you.
I’ve used cash over the internet. It’s a matter of mailing it and getting a product in return. Or you can use the apps that aren’t linked to visa and PayPal. But it’s all a trade off, for sure.
Also, we need to stop thinking of shopping on the Internet as the only way to get products for money. Buy local every opportunity you can, that’s the best answer
Website is for starters - he’s also written about ten books which are very entertaining. I’m very pleased to have helped create a new David Thorne fan!
Cash. Start using cash again.
How does one safely use cash over the internet?
You have to buy a fax machine. Then feed the notes in one at a time.
You can buy Steam gift cards with cash and redeem them on Steam.

As somebody who loves the internet and technology…
Ahem…
FUCK THE INTERNET. BURN OUT THE FUCKING CANCER AND THEN REBUILD AFTER.

you put it in the retractable cup holder, of course.
Bummer, my computer hasn’t had one of these in quite some time.
Mine too. maybe we can use a scanner, email it and destroy the now worthless cash!
Or send them a drawing as payment
