Fun fact: back in the early 2010’s Verizon Wireless started a new mobile payment option where you had the option to get an accompanying debit card for your account with the name of the app on it.
Back in the day, Avid (the company that makes professional software like media composer and pro tools) sold a NAS system called ISIS (Infinitely Scalable Intelligent Storage). The studio I worked at had a different system, but the head of post production still called it “the ISIS” because he got used to calling the network storage that.
Was the system good or had it other false promises? Infinitely sounds very unprofessional for me.
What happens when we used all the resources on our planet to scale the NAS? Did they have the technology back than, to harvest other planets or even other star systems? So many questions…

The mobile payment system name was ISIS.

lol, why would two people downvote this perfectly relevant link?
Feels.
This website leans anti-Amazon. You shouldn’t be surprised to catch a couple downvotes when posting a link to an Amazon website.

The video game Eve Online, a game about spaceships, had a screen listing all spaceships in the game and their stats.
It went by it’s acronym, which stood for Interbus Ship Identification System.
It had since been renamed.
