New patent suggests tap to pay is coming to your living room

Not my living room. Nice try, fuckers.

We already have tap to pay at home.

Remember in 2011 when PSN was hacked, and it was revealed that customers names, addresses, DOBs, usernames and passwords were stored unencrypted?

I was leaning more toward Nintendo doing this, since they already have NFC readers in the Switch but Sony was my second guess due to their rapid decline into fucking insanity.

so remove speakers, and remove the NFC thing. gotcha…

why buy this stuff again?

Sony etal are doing their best to make PC the main gaming & entertainment platform again and Microsoft is actively pushing everyone to Linux. It’s an interesting timeline we are in.

Nope
