@MrLovenstein except it’s a machine because the staff can’t talk to customers

[atillalifeson@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein Absolutely spot on!

[anthropy@mastodon.derg.nz]

@MrLovenstein I'll just call the restaurant if they do this, and if they then still whine I'll find a different place. they deserve to feel more optional tbh.

@MrLovenstein The irony of tinyview requiring me to sign in to see the "secret panel", and offering me an app, is not lost on me.

[darwinwoodka@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein gods yes

[ppxl@social.tchncs.de]

@MrLovenstein so I did all this... what's the cost difference between the same burger in all the different franchises? I mean you needed to ask because of the price difference, didn't you

Answer: 0 £/¥/$/€

(Man talks to an anthropomorphic website named Food.biz)
MAN: LEMME SEE YOUR MENU
FOOD.BIZ: HOLD UP --- NOT BEFORE YOU SHARE YOUR LOCATION, DOWNLOAD OUR APP, AND MAKE AN ACCOUNT
MAN: I AIN'T DOIN' ALL THAT SHIT
FOOD.BIZ THEN NO
MAN [now exasperated]: JUST TELL ME THE PRICE OF YOUR STUPID FUCKING BURGER!
FOOD.BIZ [crying]: IMPOSSIBLE!!

@MrLovenstein so true …. Always study some about “ api “ and the problem will be gone

@MrLovenstein

If they don't want me to see their menu, then they don't want my business…and their competitor down the street does want my business.

@MrLovenstein

Cookies, apps, all that crap that attempts to sell my info. I go back to my search engine and move to another site that will tell me what I want to know. If enough people refuse cookies & such eventually they will get the hint. They just lost a customer & I won't go back to them in the future.

[blakefox@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein restaurants that do not post their hours on the first page, I am going someplace else.

[newtraditionalists@mastodon.social]

@argv_minus_one @MrLovenstein ditto, im trying to give you money, if you make that process hard there are tons of places happy to take my money that dont.

@chgowiz @MrLovenstein Glad I'm not the only one thinking this except not secret only but half a strip.

[alexmorgannn@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein lived this experience last week, just wanted to see if they had veggie options lol

[alexmorgannn@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein this is painfully accurate lmao. just wanna see the menu bro not submit a blood sample

[alexmorgannn@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein lmao i feel this every single time i try to order food online. just let me see the prices, its not that deep

[maccruiskeen@social.linux.pizza]

@MrLovenstein Does it mean an Impossible burger?

[rejzor@mastodon.social]

@MrLovenstein I'm petty enough that I'd vocalize outloud how stupid that is and never come back.
