Rutibex posted:seems to me they are training you to accept these codes so that they can sneak in surge pricing, or datamine your phone to find you are rich and give you higher prices. i can't find the article i'm thinking of, but there was a lot of speculation that this was amazon's ultimate plan with their physical bookstores. the furthest they've taken it is serving better prices to Prime members, but that seems like the kind of thing you'd want to advertise rather than hide behind a QR code. i wouldn't attribute those nefarious ambitions to a local restaurant tho.

A Russian troll farm posted:I am in favour of the synthesis position. It is true that blaming individuals for covid going on forever, while actually it's the fault of the bourgeois state, is liberalism. However, you justifying the chili's happy hour suck-and-gently caress while ICUs are being overloaded and nurses worked to the bone is indicative of the total lack of social solidarity of the liberal subject, and is therefore also liberalism. It's all liberalism, and you can't escape it. Only JDPON can save us

Rutibex posted:what a bunch of nonsense. of course thoughts have material effects on the world maybe you have heard of the double slit experiment is this a joke, because if not you don't understand the double slit experiment very well. the observed result doesn't change due to some magic attributed to "thoughts", turns out observation is a material process in that observing something involves bombarding it with photons, there's a physical interaction of particles that influences the observed result when the wave function collapses What you're advocating is the gross oversimplification of quantum mechanics that is used to justify pseudo-scientific bullshit like "what the bleep do we know?!" and "The Secret" and whatever the gently caress deepak chopra is going on about

pokeyman posted:famous for functioning websites that sometimes exist at all, restaurants are the ideal industry to require a smartphone for service See, this is my issue. The average restaurant managers have the same understanding of tech as the average neolithic hunter-gatherer, and the average restaurant patrons are even worse. I imagine half of the day of a server will be explaining to people who wont tip how to even use the menu, and repeating "don't worry about the FRIENGDF BEENS #$2201.0021 thats just a glitch. Oh no the boss updated the price to be -1, the whole system went down."

I have never seen a QR code menu, that sounds stupid. Some quick googling leads to all sorts of marketing MBAs talking about monetizing customers more effectively with the menu data so yeah that sounds like a total loving nightmare. One time a store asked me for my phone number and I laughed at them.

I like the convenience of smartphones. But if I start needing one to go places or do things, then those places and things can gently caress right off.
