I don't understand how popular deliveroo/just eat etc are in supermarkets, whenever I'm in Waitrose or Sainsbury's there's often a chorus of ding-dongs from the scanners of the shop staff to no doubt indicate there's a new order for picking
I agree they're overused but I do actually find these ...

Cooking delivery services
I keep seeing people getting these recipe boxes delivered by subscription, probably because I live among lazy people.
As a lazy person myself, I should be the ideal target for this stuff but so far I can't see the appeal. The food always looks kind of bland, like it would be a downgrade from the ...

Re: The Tesco & other non-Morrisons supermarket thread
AmazonFresh (still clinging on for now?) have doors on their alcohol sections too, but I think that's so they can do their age verification.
I went into the Canary Wharf branch last week, intending to impress a friend with it before their demise.
Except they have torn out one of the entrance ...

Re: Windows 9 is now Windows 10
MacOS is definitely not perfect, but it’s a lot less noisy. I’m still running an M1 16” Macbook pro and it’s still smooth, battery life amazing and no crapware. It’s not for everyone, but it’s considerably more polished than the open source distributions, and a lot less naggy than Windows if all ...

Re: Adverts that irritate and entertain
Maybe they need the logo on screen for 30 seconds so you don't misread it as 'big oil", which is what I did for the first 10 seconds.

Re: Pres Cafe Watch News and Information Board
I wonder how much of this is to do with mybb limitations. Or maybe I'm just inclined to blame it because I despise mybb with a passion.

Re: The Tesco & other non-Morrisons supermarket thread
Sainsburys sending out an email saying that to pay with nectar you now need to use the QR code barcode on the app, or the magswipe on the card.
I'd be amazed if the magstripe has anything more than the account# and name on it. So I expect this option to either be dropped or to require physical ...

Re: The Tesco & other non-Morrisons supermarket thread
Sainsbury's Nine Elms in London has escalators up to the store itself.
I'd kind of taken this for granted without considering how unusual it is. Are there any other stores where almost the entirety of the ground floor is given up to parking?
(The old Sainsbury's Nine Elms was a conventional ...

Re: High Street chain collapse sweepstake
My understanding is Amz Fresh stores didn't exist to make money but rather to sell the technology and that need has now passed.
Amazon have a habit of doing this, the other example is Amazon Salon which just exists to get a license to sell professional salon products online.

Re: More English flags in your area?
Tbf it's not clear that the country needs to be united by flags when it seems to be already united by potholes
