Palm scanning is better than the facial scanning or fingerprint scanning?

I am not getting the benefit but I am old.

I remember too. You member them playing Hotel California backwards? You could hear it clear as day. It said “Satan”. I think that’s all they could make out. But that’s the biggie anyway.
