The first time I was in Bangkok in 2024 I had to use the actual visa card, couldn’t get Apple pay to work. Didn’t get to try it last month though.

I was there almost a month ago, was aware of the lizards, but ran out of time to look for them. Are there a lot of them all over that park or just in one area of the park?

Are you in Bangkok by any chance?

This is true in Singapore now as well. Tap to pay with phone, watch, or card on entering and exiting. I don’t know if it works on buses as well, but it probably does.

I do feel sorry for the kids. They’ll seemingly never know amazing things.

When dialup internet went mainstream, it was amazing. When we got broadband, it was amazing. When we got to take that mobile with 3G, it was amazing. MP3 players? Amazing! GPS? Amazing!

Now it’s just AI and enshitification.
