Wish that was my worst case scenario

Ah, typo sorry, I was thinking nes when I wrote that, but my fingers must have had their own idea.

I didn't even realise this was released for the snes! Fond memories of it on the spectrum. Might need to crank up the old emulator when I get the time.

I've always had mountain bikes. Most recently got a 29er. I don't ride much these days, but feel like a road bike might get me out more.

I only have the one pair of darn tough socks, but they're fantastic, might ask for more from santa this year.

After seeing your comment I went and checked when I got my Logitech X-540 set, not quite as long, 14 years, but also still going strong. Probably far from ideal for an audiophile, but they've been fantastic for my needs and can still blast out great sound when they need to. Been hooked up to whatever media centre setup is on my TV since I got them, in fact they've been the only consistently connected piece of tech in that system in 14 years. Literally everything else has changed multiple times.

I hadn't used FB for quite some time, when I finally tried to log in again, they wanted me to confirm who I was first with real ID.

Not to make a new account, just to access my existing account, of which I know the password, security answers, and could confirm ownership via my registered email account.

And that was the final nail in the coffin.

Fuck. No.

He's a greedy little shit who'd rather run the entire platform into the ground for a buck than do anything useful with his life.

He could've done great things. He could've gone down in history shoulder to shoulder with some of the big guys, instead, he's been a snivelling backstabbing little fungus from day 1.

There's some countries that accept it as payment fairly widely, and a couple that have even properly adopted it iirc.

In general though, no, but it's certainly usable globally and would get around OP's problem if the recipient accepts it. And if OP can be bothered with the hassle of learning about it.

Yeah that's an interesting way of approaching it. Definitely makes sense thanks :)

There's also cryptocurrency. Not as invisible as many would have you believe, especially when KYC checks are involved, but there are definitely ways to stay hidden with it, by choosing certain exchanges, transfer methods, and currencies.

Not as straightforward of an answer as OP is probably hoping for though, and it also depends heavily on the recipient of the money.
