You can do a business transaction using an ATM as long as both parties agree to it, for example: personal escrow service for small local marketplace. It's legit and you can record it in the ledger just fine.

Why not go inside for a teller to help?

If you want to do a simple account-to-account transaction, the bank will point you to an ATM machine. In my case the tellers will flat out refuse to help you because they are busy handling cold cash, cheque, plus any other transactions involving physical stuff.

Let's say I have a single card to handle the following:
1.) Basic utility + phone/internet/cable
2.) Insurance and subscriptions, either monthly or annual
3.) School/college tuition and fees
4.) Online shopping and groceries
5.) Cash withdrawal
That's gonna take a while even for a single household. Sometimes a single ATM user will pay for more than one household (parents, spouse, kids). In that case multiply the time needed as necessary.

It made me wonder about the limits of "human" characters in superhero media and just action heroes in general.

A bullet to brain/throat/heart will stop a regular non-powered 'human' hero. That would be the limit of 'human' durability in action movie. For example: Last Action Hero movie.

The limit of 'human' strength is probably breaking chain/padlock barehanded to gain entry, and the limit of 'human' speed is probably outrunning a car on foot. I believe such feats are depicted as impossible for mere 'human' but cmiiw. Endurance or stamina has no limit.

I dont read it like that. I see it as integrating gamefaqs and the wikis. Theyve made it clear keeping the gaming boards open is something they are wanting to do.

Please reread the post. They crosslinked the guides and the wikis but they decided not to do so with the boards. In short guides=good, boards=bad.
DToast said they were considering doing it with boards at one point, but "for obvious reasons, decided against it for now".
obvious reasons = politics / horny / bad faith users. The feedback topics made this clear.
