Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

๐ At this point, I think way to many people have their wallet IN their phone. This would be like icing on the cake.
I mean digital wallets at least can't really be accessed by someone taking your phone.
unless you use your fingerprint or face to unlock it (iphones and many androids have a key combo that quickly locks your phone and disables biometrics until you unlock it again with your pin or password. google it. useful in duress situations, but some manufacturers (in my case xiaomi) remove the feature. it doesn't prevent the stealing of all available data on your phone in case your attacker happens to own a cellebrite device and takes your phone away for a few hours (almost nothing can prevent that, except grapheneos), but it prevents quick in-the-moment abuse.)
Jokes on them, my fingerprint scanner refuses to recognize my fingerprint 75% of the time. Maybe because I use GrapheneOS
Well lucky you tbh, they're insecure (it's basically a password that can never be changed and can legally be compelled by the feds unlike an in-brain password), could in theory be used quite literally to fingerprint you, and can't be used with gloves or dirty hands or even sometimes sweat.
My Pixel 9 on stock android has the same issue. My hands are just too sweaty.
didn't google pixels only recently switch to ultrasonic scanners instead of optical ones? if your fingerprint scanner has to light up with a bright light, it's usually less good
Guess I have an old one. I'm on a Pixel 7
Yeah, but that's more a threat if the state gets ahold of your device. I'm not worried about them getting to my digital payment methods, they could probably just empty my bank account if they really wanted without ever having my phone.
