What do I need a wallet for? I can use my phone to pay everywhere nowadays.

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

I kind of like not religiously following digital payments. They’re governed by Visa and other payment companies, and some of the businesses near me have started feeling an increased squeeze from them. They sometimes appreciate cash payments.

[-] pringus@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

You never know when you might need bills or your ID, even in a state with contactless payments everywhere and a digital ID, it's better to have a backup.

In the last 15 years, the only time I’ve ever used cash was to buy coke.

That’s all it’s good for nowadays. Buying drugs.

Most small vendors offer a pretty nice discount for cash (even though thats technically against cc's tos), as soon as I started to buy almost entirely local my cash usage went way up. I do almost all my groceries in cash these days from a farmers market.

And privacy? I use cash whenever I can

[-] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 2 points 17 hours ago

I almost never use digital payments. Between the processing fees and lack of privacy, cash is always better for both parties. You spend less when you carry cash also.

Maybe if turkey supported NFC better, plus going outside without an id card is never a great option

Just need a magnetic card holder on the back of my phone, for my driver license and registration. Even the car opens and starts with a card. And my home has a smart lock, which I can open from my phone. So keys are not needed either.

And then that priceless moment when the battery dies.

[-] Katana314@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

I was curious about this. For some home smart locks, they have a kind of nose ring on the bottom where you can hold a 9V battery against it, and use that to power the entry system (which only needs you to enter a code) until you can change the inner battery.

[-] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 1 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Well then I just go to my friend nearby who has the spare key. Rarely happens that I have a completely empty phone battery. And I can just charge it in my car if necessary.
