I HATE QR MENUSI HATE QR MENUSI HATE QR MENUS
>>20975550agreed.
>>20975550agreed
I assume they use these to change their prices from one minute to the next
>>20975550one of us
I like them when you can order directly to your table, including drinks. Not having to wait in line for a feed and a pint is honestly a God send.

I have never used a QR code. Also never had a Covid test or vaccine, AND I’m uncircumcised.
>>20975669Based, honestly.
>>20975669same
>go to restaurant>QR code for menu>ask waitress if I can get a physical menu since I don't have a phone (I do)>"sorry we don't have any">ask her if she could print one >comes back with manager 15 minutes later with their online menu printed on several sheets of printer paper (full color)>"thank you so much!">look at menu for about 5 seconds >order the chicken strips with BBQ sauce, a coke, and side of coleslaw>waitress brings my food>"actually can I get the check and a to-go box?">exasperated look "sure, no problem.">pull out cash to pay >"sorry we are cashless only, can you pay with card?">"I don't use credit cards, and I left my debit at home. can you make an exception?">5 minutes later manager comes back with a little cash envelope and says they can only take cash if its exact change, or if I round up and add it to the tip>no problem, round up one penny to $13>no tip>get fucked wagies
>>20975550What's the problem anon? Just scan it.
>>20975723scannedgiggle audibly :'(
>>20975669King.
>>20975550QR menus are proof of the worldwide communist gangster computer god's mind controls
>>20975669Nice.
>>20975550I literally can't use them because I have a flip phone and have never ever owned a smart phone. I've had to leave bars before because they didn't have a single paper menu. I'm in my 30s btw.
>>20975550>see qr menu>turn 360 degrees and walk away
>meet up with some friends for brunch>one of them goes "here's the menu!" and hands me the table holder with the QR code in it>my literal face whenIf there wasn't a buffet available I would have just copied one of my friend's orders. Miss me with that QR code bullshit.
>see qr menu"May I have a menu?""Of course sir, here you go".You guys sure like to waste time shitposting about non issues.
>>20975853That happens to me but I have to be a menu cuck and ask my friends if I can use one of their phones. Sometimes they don't let me and I have to ask the server if they can scan the menu on their phone and let me look at it while my friends snicker at making me a menu cuck. Then the server has to stand there and wait while I scrool the menu. It's dehumanizing.
Everyone does. Civilized people pocket their phone when dining.
>>20975975Why would you take your telephone into a restaurant with you? That's why they make car mounts for it.
>>20975669
>>20975550Are there places where this is the only menu available?I have never owned a smartphone, and places have always had menus for me. Yes, I have eaten out in the last 6 months
>>20975709thank you!!!!
I have never used a menu QR code and never will
>>20975550everyone does psycho.
>>20975709technically the wagie didn't get fucked, it was the boss
>>20976917I prefer The Birds
I ate at a brewery yesterday. I ordered coffee, she brought me an empty mug and a French press, I had to pour it myself. I asked for water, she pointed at a “self fill station” and stack of plastic cups across the room. My wife ordered a bottle of mineral water, she was given a closed bottle, empty glass, and no bottle opener (not twist-off).Now, I’m NOT a picky guy, I NEVER complain. If a place screws up my order, I usually just say fuck it and eat it anyway. But, this shit is getting ridiculous.
>people still shitposting about a non issue. Lol
>>20976976I bet you tipped anyway
>>20976992Just the tip doesn't matter. Penetration however slight is enough to fit the offense.

>>20977029morning, what are you making for breakfast on this fine sundayI'm making a breakfast burrito
So glad I stopped going to restaurants entirely
>>20977038let's see some photos of it, you beautiful gem posterI'm gonna have coffee until this afternoon when I make fried rice
>>20977038If it doesn’t have beans and rice in it, it’s a breakfast taco.
>>20977069Bacon and diced onion and potato, which I will later add the eggs and cheese to. >>20977079shut up
>>20977172Eggs ended up looking like diarrhea but smell good. I usually use frozen potatoes obrien and it comes out a lot more attractive
>>20975669And yet you still use the internet. Enjoy your brain cancer, goy.
>>20977176wa la
>>20975550They're great when done properly. Now you will never have the waiter forget or make mistakes with your order. You also get a running tally of the total cost, so you can keep to your budget. Some restaurants even allow you to pre-order before you even arrive. However, badly designed websites where the menu is haphazardly organized is still quite common. Also, you lose the ability to ask for customization of your meal.
>>20977176>>20977184total garbage
I have never, in any circumstance, used a QR code>>20977066Same

>>20978731Hey, fuck you. I have a flip phone becasue I don't need or want to be plugged into the matrix 24/7. I'm not fat at all, have a full head of hair, and dress appropriately for my age. I never throw a fit about QR codes, I either use my friends phone or if I'm alone the server is almost always able to find a phone for me to order with. If you're polite and a regular person about it, the restaurant or bar will almost always find a way to let see a menu.

>>20980330At least they have a "no tip" option. My all time favorite are those where you have to hit "custom" and actually enter $0

In 20 years when using AI to transcribe voice to posting without having to navigate a UI becomes the norm, anons will be saying phoneposters are the real hardcore oldfags and having to actually use a keyboard will be seen in the same light as mainframe punchcards.

>>20980674Making things convenient makes people lazy and stupid. Having a forklift lift weights for you doesn't make you strongerBy the time things get as easy as you describe, people will be too stupid and incompetent to have a functioning technological civilizationYou being an obsequient, brown-nosing, bootlicking, toadie is the problem. I don't blame you, however. People have been groomed and programmed to be this way for over 100 years. You are just a product of your culture New is not always better and motion is not always progress. You don't have to automatically consume what is put in front of us. You can make choices

>>20975858Before the pandemic lots of places were abandoning paper menus. During and after many more places also abandoned the paper menu. Most places never brought it back. There are a lot of bars and restaurants that don't actually have physical menus. It isn't rare or uncommon to go somewhere that only has QR menus.
>>20975550QR menus haven't gone far enough. I should be able to order the food on the ride to the restaurant via the menu and then have it served moments after I've sat down at the table.
>please run our javascript invested websoyt on your pocket computerno. if you can't give me a normal menu and let me pay in advance so I can just leave when I'm done I will eat somewhere else
>>20982624yiff in hell furfag

>>20975709Based. Gonna do this the next time I go to the airport.
>>20975550the main purpose of qr menus is to datamine you
>>20982657I don't mind furries. I mind people constantly advertising that they're furries for attention or exhibitionism or whatever other reason they're always attaching it to a subject it has nothing to do with.
>>20975669kek we are the same. Based beyond belief.
>>20982530Most places have at least one or two on hand for people who don't own smartphones or if their phone is dead, they don't want to turn away a customer.

>>20975550I live in stupid dumb gay shitty Austin and I have yet to see one of these QR code menus. I feel like people must be going out of their way to find them.

>>20983756Touch grass nigger.
>>20983784I own and maintain a lawn which requires me to touch grass regularly.
>>20983808Touch real grass you Astro turfing nigger.
>>20983828If I had Astro Turf I wouldn't need to maintain it and the irony of a person on their phone implying that I spend too much time online is heavier than your mom.
>>20975550agreed>>20975669powerful aura>>20980224>flip phonebro what
>>20975550If anywhere does card only transactions, I make sure to order some ridiculous overpacked with extras slop abomination, then ask to pay in cash. They're then forced to deal with the waste.
>>20976976There was a bar that opened up in redneckville usa down the street. It was one of those get a wrist band you have to scan your own beer, pour it then pay a crazy price. It lasted 2 months. Hipsters
>>20984026>If anywhere does card only transactions, I make sure to order some ridiculous overpacked with extras slop abomination, then ask to pay in cash.No you don't, even goyslop McRestaurants demand your card or cash before anyone in the back hears the order. Where are you from that you thought anyone would fall for this?
>>20983867That’s quite the assumption isn’t it, some absurd fallacy I won’t look into. Double nigger.
>>20982900You don't get to dictate how people express themselves
>>20982900I agree with this anon. Fetishists make everything about their fetish and insert it into places that it doesn't need to be. Foot fetishists, fat fetishists, and scat fetishists are all guilty tooThey are uninteresting, one note people
>>20975709>sorry we are cashless onlyYou can't really be cashless if you receive payment after the service is rendered. Otherwise after refusing someone's cash, they could legally walk out without paying because the debt was tendered and you refused payment.
>>20984151>That’s quite the assumption isn’t itWhat did I assume?
>>20984871king
>>20984538And you don't get to dictate whether or not I call you a worthless faggot who should rot in hell.
>>20984871>You can't really be cashless if you receive payment after the service is renderedthis
>>20975550I prefer them. Physical menus are often sticky or dirty and I'd prefer not having to touch them. They're also big and cumbersome on the table. I'm already holding my phone at the booth anyway so it's great when the menu can just pop up on it. I wonder if people who don't like QR menus just have old small and shitty phones which are either slow or hard to get the menu open?
>>20985016Well you said someone on their phone saying you’re on the internet too much is ironic. I feel like that’s an assumption. That would mean that someone who has a phone is online more than someone who doesn’t or isn’t on their phone? What if you work in an office all day with tabs open and I work in a field and check every 6 hours. Idk just seems weird. Was assumption wrong? I don’t think so, I know what you were trying to say. Nigger.
>>20986044God damnit disregard first sentence. You said it’s ironic a phone poster is saying touch grass. Something something.That should work a little better. Still waking up. uwu.
>>20980499Yeah, you self administered 5g nano particles into your system, good job
>>20986044>What if you work in an office all day with tabs open and I work in a field and check every 6 hours.Then you're still spending your free time on your phone on 4chan.
>>20980525I haven't seen a post this gay in a long time. Well done.
>zoomers having meltdowns at the thought of having to look at something in realspace and not the light up screen they've been staring at since birthWhen are we going to get iPads we can implant into wombs so fetuses can watch pajeetslop on youtube?
>>20976991Welcome to 4chan>>20975550Here's a hot take: I don't fucking care. As long as I can get some form of a menu, I'm fine. I don't need to be a prissy little faggot like OP and demand a physical menu. If they have a physical menu, I'll take it. If not, I use my phone because I'm not a sheltered little twat.
I've yet to encounter one. I know one cafe that uses them but I haven't gone there in seven years. Weirdly, the sign for the QR code menu is in Chinese. I live in a heavily Asian area but most of the ones here aren't Chinese.
>>20980587>terminal users made the exact arguments you're making [against] GUIsNot that guy but I really didn't like GUIs at first. It took me close to a decade to give a shit about them and that's mostly because there were few other alternatives for newer software. Same with phones. It took me a comparative eternity to adopt a smart phone, not buying my first until 2012. And I kept the same phone until 4g ended. Ten years on the same device is unheard of these days. In fact, I still use that phone just not as a phone anymore.I find that every single time something supposedly "updates," it also removes features I found extremely useful. Google has abandoned cached pages recently, for example. Gmail was better when it was html based and it should have never been discontinued. Yahoo's front page is garbage in the new format. Google using AI has made all search engines useless when looking for anything specific. And that's not to mention the horrific amounts of bloat every single browser and user interface has these days. I'm a firm believer in "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" and rarely find so-called improvements any better than the predecessors.
>>20975723>posting a qr to childpornyou got fuckin balls man
>>20975669Same. I get the wagey to show me on their phone or ask about a "store phone" by claiming my own phone has no data (usually works since fewer places offer wifi these days). Then I take my time scrolling while they have to stand and seethe. By this point, I ask about items that don't actually exist that I'm "sure" I heard were being served. My last move is to ask if they're sure they don't have a paper menu. If they walk away I go to their photo gallery app and bring up whatever pornography they have saved there. Then I pick up my jacket and make a show of wiping germs my hands. I will actually wash them because wageys are poor and their phones are sure to be filthy.
>>20986209based retarded fat boomer
>>20986211If you have tablets for foodcuck orders, you can offer free wifi.
>>20986157I got my first mobile in 2011, a 10 year old Nokia 2g brick for $10. I needed it for online dating. I'd arrange the meetings on a computer but, invariably, the women would be late, and mad that they couldn't text me to tell me. Now, there is an expectation that you should always be reachable. I had that phone until 2022, when I got my first camera phone, but still not a smartphone. I needed to take pictures of cats to share with a gf who was out of town. I had a pager back in the 90s and it was my mother and gfs who used it the most. It was an electronic leash then, just like mobiles are now>I find that every single time something supposedly "updates," it also removes features I found extremely useful.Tech, games, movies, etc. keep getting dumbed down for the lowest common denominator. All the techcuck NPCs in this thread illustrate this. Buckle up anon. It's only going to get worse before it collapses.
It's a convenience for a non-problem. Having and maintaining a set of laminated menus should be fucking nothing for a restaurant. If they are pushing a QR menu, it makes me think they are either constantly changing the menu or constantly changing the prices.
>>20983958It flips open like a clam shell. I only use my cellphone for calls and urgent texts. You want me to be available 24/7 for work stuff or to bother me with inane bullshit? Sorry, I only have a flip phone. You can reach me on my landline or leave a message on my landline if I don't answer. M
>>20975593>It's oppressionHave you ever considered that it is just easier? No need to put menus on every table. No need to maintain menus. Everything is electronic and can be managed easily. Customer doesn't need to look and browse, can use their phones.Give me one good reason not to digitalize. Classic restaurants use physical menus still for the experience but who the fuck prefers a physical menu on the table at random ass joints.
>>20975612It's better for everyone. The restaurant also avoids obstructive lines. People can just get seated on their own. There is not a single reason to be luddite in this instance.
>>20975709Why is he like this?
>>20975550>restaurant has QR menus>stare across the restaurant at the giant wall menu instead
>>20975550Why?
>>20987158>digitalize lol you like getting finger blasted while you read your virtual menu, huh? You like that, big guy?
>>20975669>this what lonely "men" hanging out with other lonely "men" will do to their brainskinda pathetic desu
>>20980525You will never type faster on a touch screen than a keyboard, it's not mechanically possible you zoomer faggot fuck.
>>20980587GUIs are a shitty meme though
>>20987158>give me one good reasonBecause the vast majority of mobile layout devs are absolute fucking retards that can't figure out how to properly present content coherently. Almost invariably the layout of these QR menus is bad enough to make a Jackson Pollock painting look organized. Horrible image framing, incomprehensible font size and selection, double doses of jpeg, broken links galore, etc.QR menus can suck my left and right one
>>20975550Agreed. I hate it when I have to use a QR code reader to call up a menu on my cell phone and find that the menu page is badly configured and doesn't show up properly on a phone screen.
>>20975709I did a similar thing>Go to Italian place in a market>Walk up and can't see a menu>Ask the cashier where the menu is>She points to a QR code and says I can use my phone to get the menu>Say I don't have my phone on me (it's very obviously buldging in my pocket)>She recites the menu to me (there were only 4 things)>Has to repeat a few times because she had a heavy accent and it was noisy>Eventually order and pay>While waiting for my food a group of people approach >They leave when they learn the menu is QR code onlyNo idea why they keep pushing it, no one wants it
I really don't see the big deal. QR menus are unobtrusive, easy to use, and the restaurant can update them easily on the fly. What exactly is the problem?
>>20987158I hope you get raped.
>>20984871>>20985770>>20985800this isn't how it works btw
>>20975550Sir, calm down and eat your corn syrup.
>>20975550QR? Like queer? Wait, YOU HATE FAGGOTS??? THAT'S FUCKING ILLEGAL.
>>20987141Unironically extremely based, I don't have your willpower but god I wish I didn't care so much about others' comfort.
