This isn’t an illegal thing but more of a tip for the thing you hate. Most credit card companies will let you open and close virtual credit cards tied to your main account, but with a new card number etc. I make a new virtual card for every subscription I have.

This is the mechanism behind hawking radiation too; some of the energy given off by black holes is caused by spontaneous pair generation that happens such that one of the pair is created beyond the event horizon and the other member is created before the event horizon, causing one to be trapped and the other to be jettisoned into space.

I know that doesn’t really relate to your comment about containing antimatter but I counter with the following: I’m profoundly autistic and the standard model has been a special interest of mine before. I couldn’t resist the chance to infodump a bit
