The fact that this game ended with an insanely difficult quick time event was so fucking bonkers.

I finished 99.999% of this game, and never got past the cheap ass quick time event.

The food code should probably just be amended. It pretty generically says that you can’t have “nonnutritive” stuff inside of it, unless that stuff is safe to consume. That’s a pretty reasonable thing, but it should probably be tweaked for nonnutritive stuff that is easy to spot and less likely to be mistaken for food.

What's the best "cheap" iPhone i could get ?

Hey ! I just broke my Pixel 4a (fp reader is dead, screen is flickering, battery health is getting really bad), and i am looking to try out Apple ecosystem. I have a budget of around 300 euros, and i have no problem looking at refurbished devices / secondhand. Here is a list i made (prices are from backmarket, a refurbished...

How are in-store pickup sales tracked for revenue?

So, obviously, if you go to a brick-n-mortar store and buy something there, it counts as a sale for the store, with stores that don’t get enough sales often closing. But if I order something online from, say, Best Buy and pick it up in store, how is that tracked? Does it count as a sale for the store, even though I didn’t...

Retail guy here.

Everything is usually in a centralized database of orders that are tagged with the point of sale location and the store, warehouse, or vendor that the product came from.

Warehouses and retail stores also have inventory databases that tell them how quickly something sells, when they need to buy new supply, and where that supply needs to go.

It kind of doesn’t matter where the sale comes from as long as you know where inventory is and is not needed.

Ghostalmedia,

Correct. It really depends on how the business want do set things up. No one size fits all. Really all boils down to how the technology, data science, and finance teams want to solve the problem.

Ideally, if you can start over from scratch, it’s nice to have one generic data lake, then just run queries to tell you how a specific retail platform or location is performing.

Yeah, I might be to blame for some of that shit. I started !antiquememesroadshow a few months ago, then it blew up and started covering c/all, then it spread like herpes to the other meme communities.

Shit has died way down since that one weird week.

I can get the TV+ hike. I don’t like it, but I get it. When TV+ launched it had very little content and no one was going to pay for that little content unless it was cheap. But now there is a pretty good library of new stuff, and it’s usually of better quality than what’s floating around on HBO.

Arcade price hikes - now that seems like a good reason to cancel Arcade. If they’re going to add better games that take advantage of the new fast processors, I can understand console tier pricing. But the games still mostly feel like mobile games. And not mobile as in “Nintendo Switch,” mobile as in “flappy bird.”

Ghostalmedia,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

You got downvoted, but I agree. HBO isn’t what is once was, although there are a few gems. TV+ seems to be the place where people are allowed to spend an ungodly amount of money on a show right now.

Ghostalmedia,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I agree. I might be cool if you have kids. I don’t, so I’d rather just buy the one or two mobile games I play each year.

But the article said that the vanilla Gen 3s aren’t selling because people are still buying new 2s.

There is a market for vanilla headphones. It’s the middle tier that’s doesn’t make sense.

The 2s can often be purchased for $100, and the 3s are often more expansive that the Gen 1 Pros when they’re on sale.

All in all, AirPod 3s are a weird in-between product that doesn’t make sense.

Ghostalmedia,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

Basically people buy the cheapest AirPods, the 2s, or the Pros with ANC. Not the middle ground.

The weird middle tier just doesn’t sell well. If you don’t want ANC, you can get new 2s for a lot less. And if you really want spatial audio, you might as well spend an extra few bucks to get the pros or some refurbished pros. They might even been cheaper than the MSRP 3s if you go with Gen 1 Pros.

I feel like most people probably buy 3s because they are a good fit for a specific ear shape. If you’re comparing features and prices, they’re an odd choice.

Mechanical meters are terrible for tracking real time consumption and managing the grid efficiently. They also pay for themselves because they can catch tampering and don’t require utilities to pay people to bumble around homes to read stupid meters.

Mechanical meters make no sense. They’re a waste of money and not great for a grid that requires intelligence to help get off fossil fuels.

This article is about UK energy meters.

Ghostalmedia,
@Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world avatar

Probably worth noting, this article is about UK energy meters. Also, smart meters are wildly different all over the world.

Where I live, the meters have a proprietary wireless receiver, with its own frequency, that is owned and operated by the power company.

True, but I was saying that because it’s about energy meters, not water meters.

Google Chrome to soon get a new ‘IP protection’ feature: Here’s what it does (indianexpress.com)

Google will soon start testing a new ‘IP protection’ feature for Chrome users, offering them greater control over their privacy. The tech giant the upcoming feature prevents websites from tracking users by hiding their IP address using proxy servers owned by Google....

I would wager that this is probably more of a response to iOS and Apple’s encrypted proxy “Private Relay” feature.

Google doesn’t care about Edge. If you look at the browser stats, mobile Safari is their major competitor. Especially in the states.

Asian Old Man is an investment. You buy him, put him up, then work extra hard to climb the latter so you don’t disappoint him. The you’ll have enough money for even more wall decals.
