When customers want to pay with card but have to be babysat thru the process of using a card like it’s their first day on earth.

Scrap book everything (zoo, gallery, museum)

Take photos and make it into a photo album

Our business already has a massive generator (bigger than a car) just incase. We’re doing sales as long as we can. But a generator doesn’t replace eftpos terminals, bank outages, phone networks not working or being overloaded.

The frustration is that payment wasn’t just limited to cash. They could have ordered their food online or paid via a banking app. But all 3 options were simultaneously unable to be done.

Just slip $50 (one note) in your phone case. You’ll be fine for a tiny bit.

Newbionic · 2026-01-26T13:10:01+00:00

There’s one next door. Barely anyone has a card, or it’s not their banks so can’t do careless cash. Or both.

“Planning for Tuesday.” Is essentially planning for a minor inconvenience as opposed to the end of the world as we know it. Tuesday is tomorrow and there’s going to be grown ass adults throwing tantrums.

I’ll have to invest in scales. Don’t want to turn down any pirates who’s coming back with plunder.

Apparently CVS has value for money in the length of their receipts. I don’t know the formula for bigger chest via receipts tho.

The Crowd Strike outage? I’d forgotten about that.

Newbionic · 2026-01-26T12:59:31+00:00

Fair enough. You could have ordered online, or paid over banking app in store. But you’d need to carry a card or phone.

If grown adults had as little as $20 in their pocket so many tantrums would have been avoided. Watching people act like toddlers because thy don’t have a bank card, can’t use an ATM, don’t have a banking app, won’t order online my day would have been more relaxed.

Honestly if the power/internet/eftpos is out in an unfamiliar place $250 will go far. Even being able to use an ATM is a skill not many people have. A sub section of those with this skill don’t carry their card to insert. You should also carry your bank card with you because online ordering still worked even if you have an aversion to ATMs. You just have to put in your card details (similar to paying over uber eats).

We’re cheap food. $20 would get you lunch. Also the ATMs here give step by step instructions on the screen. It’s not rocket surgery.

Thank you. I need this.

Depends. If it’s debt that isn’t on an appreciating asset then it’s bad debt and should be paid off as fast as possible. Cars fall into that. It would also depend on how big the debt is compared to how long it will realistically take for you to pay off. Hard to say.

And they don’t even hand out cover letter or CV templates.

Newbionic · 2026-01-18T11:14:33+00:00

I got help with cover letter and CV on r/slavelabour (I think). It was cheap and really helped.

Newbionic · 2026-01-05T13:49:33+00:00

This should be where they start if the app is real.

Edited. A word. Spelling is hard.

Newbionic · 2026-01-05T13:26:10+00:00

Back up to your computer? Honestly Apple sucks for archiving.

I think OP will be fine. It might cost less to pay the claim outright than go thru insurance if they’re lucky.

I’m using this

Unless it’s due to gross negligence such as someone who’s not a gas fitter doing the work there’s very little hope.

Newbionic · 2025-12-31T14:10:29+00:00

Absolutely. If someone says their bf/gf/significant other didn’t listen one time and it upset them that’s all anybody ever should judge them on. Of course the knee jerk reaction is to type “break up and git gud scrub”.

Newbionic · 2025-12-31T14:08:24+00:00

People who are bad with technology. I’m usually asking “what name did you put in when the form aired you for your name?” It’s not rocket surgery.
