Personal identification number number

Ah yes, I love to use GPS systems to find those ATM machines with LCD displays, so I can enter my PIN numbers without worrying about key loggers

LED is light emitting diode and refers to the method of displaying pixels, it doesn't stand for display as your comment seems to imply. You probably mean LCD (liquid cristal display) /display/.

Whats wrong with LED display?

[–] dangling_cat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Woah. LCD is Liquid Crystal Display but LED is Light-Emitting Diode. Only LCD works on the joke lol. Edited!

And driving there in your car with ABS brakes

[–] DannyBoy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

You can have non ABS brakes though. It's a descriptor of what type of brake system.

I've seen "personal identification PIN number" used far too much in the press. I'm not sure who it says more about, journalists, or their readers.

You mean like a personal id identification pin number for banking? I also have a TAN number list fixed to my LCD display for online banking. And if I need cash I go to the ATM machine.

French "au jour d'aujourd'hui" would like to know your position.

Translated literally, it would be, like... "At the day of at the day of today"

Au jour : at the day

Aujour : at the day

d'hui : of today
