My boomer trait is that I frequently type in my password where the username is supposed to go. What's yours?

Menus at restaurants are to be printed not via a QR code and a shitty website.

    To be fair, telling people to scan QR codes with their phones is a huge phishing vector. I've seen a few places with new stickers over the first one, which is very easy to do. Is it an updated menu? Or a scam page for a session stealer?

    a shitty website

    Or worse a PDF of the menu.

    That is 500Mb+ because the 'designer' just stuffed the highest quality image in they could as a background on the whole thing

    I'd be inclined to blame the restaurant for that one. The designer would normally be making it for print, in which case higher quality is better. If the restaurant wants a digital menu, they should ask for that.

    I FUCKING HATE QR CODE MENUS SO MUUUUCH!!!

    If your wifi is bad or I just don't want to wait to load a tiny goddamn webpage, I'm gone.

    It's really not hard to print a menu for a restaurant. The minimal amount of effort.

    I know a bar that does this but you can place orders for the table (your friends too and you can see their orders), call the waiter and pay the bill. I was impressed it was functional.

    This is the most tech I want to see at the table:

    1. Call waiter - because if you snap your fingers I'm throwing something at you.
    2. I need the bill - because etiquette is different the world over
    3. Cancel request because buddy was being a dink and hit the button.

    As a patron and as a former waiter, this is both the minimum and the maximum tech I want.
