+I went to eat at a Burger King with two friends.  We were not wearing face
+masks, but as a measure against covid, the keys on the card reader keypad were
+given separately in plastic bags and we had to install them ourselves to pay.
+
+After we got out, I was with my parents instead, and we went to a place with
+multiple concert halls stacked on multiple floors.  Once there, we could give
+the bags of keys to a waiter.  We went to visit all the floors; each concert
+hall had a different theme, and some artists had a thin and tall speaker where
+they were supposed to have a human face.
+
+On the topmost floor, there wasn't a rather high ceiling like the other floors.
+The room still had some concert equipment, and had a wooden floor.  The room was
+fully lit up, because there was no concert going on there.
+
+A man was standing at a counter on the side opposite to the stage, and a mailman
+was next to him, handing him a package.  I head over to the counter and pay for
+the shipping fee with what looks like a netherlands post debit card.  I type my
+code on the keypad (with normal keys this time), but the screen seems to expect
+5 digits instead of the usual 4: it displays 5 white squares.
+
+The squares display the code in plain, not the usual `*`, and something on the
+screen says that I should not be pressing the green button because the
+transaction will be validated automatically, so I wait while the mailman gets to
+admire my card's code for a few seconds.  It finally accepts the payment, and I
+leave the building while telling my parents about the amazing level of security
+I just experienced.
