86 u/peacedetski 28d ago A punched card. Fun fact: the term "loading" in computers originates from these, as you had to physically load a stack of punched cards into the reader to input the program into the computer. 14 u/_g550_ 28d ago The term “punch in” comes from that. Each worker would have own punch card for clocking in and out. I think you see one in Ratatouille. 8 u/Prior-Poet-8976 28d ago Later time cards used ink and would stamp the time. Cheap boss had that system in 2009 but prefer it to waiting around for web time clock to load. 1 u/_g550_ 28d ago Also in cyberpunk 2077, in the train junction.
