It’s absolutely possible. It would depend on the store but I’m guessing a store that has a loyalty program is interested enough in analyzing customer data that they would use your credit card as a unique identifier of you as a customer, especially for transactions where there wasn’t a loyalty number entered.
How appropriate. You’ve aged like a cow.
Similar to that, just because someone works in IT, doesn’t mean they can fix your computer problem. I’ve worked with a lot of developers who were great coders but couldn’t resolve networking or random OS issues.
Not exactly secret, but not very well-known. In many states your credit score can be used as a factor in determining the cost of auto insurance for you. Lower credit scores can equal higher premiums.

I think I was the same with MS DOS on my XT, because I remember buying an upgrade for a version 4.x at one point.
Here’s something totally bizarre that you might it might not care about.
The other day I brought up Metroid on the Nintendo Switch NES app (the one that lets you play some NES games with an online subscription.) After playing for a bit, I wanted to show him the Justin Bailey code. But I couldn’t remember it exactly at first. So I tried it in various cases, and when I enter the code with all lowercase letters, it crashed the game.
No idea if it’ll do that for everyone, or if it did that on the actual NES, but I tried it a few times and it crashed everything.
For reference, I entered in the code like this:
justin bailey
------ ------
But the actual code is:
JUSTIN BAILEY
------ ------
I thought your post said NASA at first, and I was really skeptical.
It’s been twisted so far from its original intention.
Just tell them, “Bubatz ist jetzt legal!”
I received the offer on my 16 year old Reddit account, but not on another account I have that’s more like 12. Not sure if they went by account age or activity or what.
I did not try to get in on the IPO (or pre-IPO.)

In Kentucky, between Louisville and Frankfort, there is a city called “Simpsonville” and it’s right next to a city called “Shelbyville”.
My son is a voracious reader, and he has the same thing. He’s 15 now but still, every so often, he’ll say a word and it’ll take me a minute to figure out what he means.
Especially when it’s something that goes against “societal norms” like diet culture.

I’d be fucked because I never really read books as a kid, either for entertainment or even when they were assigned as school work.
Now, if I could do that with video games or Saturday morning cartoons, I’d be good.
I fucking hope not.
I know which city used to be Constantinople, thanks to They Might Be Giants!
