I just had to share this with people who would understand: the small perks of being a nerd.

I was just at a university library where you could use the scanner/copier for free as a visitor. This however required you to input a long username and password into the machine. Quite cumbersome. You could also scan your library card, linked to your account, but then you had to pay for library membership.

The scanner/copier asked whether I wanted to link a library card and I thought -- hey, I happen to have an empty NFC card in my bag, would that work? It sure did! Love this hobby :-P
