I haven’t heard of an actual direct initiative here, that 2027 date sounds more like marketing for IBN than an actual industry-wide push. Walmart is banking on RFID, for example.

You’re right about them going bust, but they were bought by Keurig/Dr. Pepper and is in stores, just probably none near you. My local Walmart has it.
I was an avid reader as a kid, and took the Accelerated Reader tests almost religiously.
I switched school systems one year and jammed out all the tests I could remember.
Got an award at the end of the year. A neat little blue engraved plaque. Not sure where it ended up.
Sorry, this comment was mainly just providing the previous user with a correction because they seemed to think that the other person that they were replying to was talking about forcing people to use phone apps, which I assume we all agree is bad and would likely work if there were a concentrated push for it.
Concerning your points after “using the browser”: I want websites to use replaceState and manage their own intra-page navigation with a cookie. They can still intercept the back button as they do now, but they should only get the single history entry until they switch to a new page, if they ever do.
I don’t think I’m disputing your facts, I was responding to the scenario you presented which was, essentially, “what about email”. I would say it’s fair that my opinion on a canonical browser history is solid and unlikely to change, though.
I think the word ‘app’ was being used in place of ‘webapp’ there, which is the general target audience for this feature.
I don’t think that email and browser history are similar enough to make a meaningful comparison, honestly.
Maybe someone could say that, but I am not.
I see a specific instance of a specific bad feature being specifically abused. I don’t care to entertain whatabouts.
I accept that it’s how things are, I just personally feel as though the only way this feature could ever work as it does now is with the implementation it has now, and that the convenience of single page webapps that use history manipulation is not worth the insane annoyance of helping my grandma get out of websites that tell her that she has been hacked by the FBI.
I’m frustrated that removing bad functionality is being treated as a slippery slope with obviously bad and impossible jokes as the examples chosen.
I see a bad feature being abused, and I don’t see the removal of that bad feature as a dangerous path to getting rid of email. I don’t ascribe the same weight that you seem to towards precedent in this matter.
I’d prefer an independently owned small store, as someone who installs cash register systems for independently owned stores primarily in rural West Virginia.
You appear to have accidentally responded to a different thread of comments. I mean this genuinely and not sarcastically.
… With all currants in it? Just like mother used to forge.
Nothing better than selling a single-purpose bit of plastic intended to go into the microwave and boil water that is functionally a replacement for a bowl that you presumably already have that expressly states that you can only use it for up to 5 years.
That scene scared the shit out of me more than any horror movie ever could.
Nano is the tool that people use when they don’t have a need for TUI editors in general and therefore don’t want to have to memorize how people with teletypes decided things should have been done 75 years ago and who also don’t want to get dragged into endless pointless bickering arguments about which set of greybeards was objectively right about their sets of preferences.
I’m glad people enjoy the editors they use and also I just wanna change a single fuckin line in a config file every once in a while without needing to consult a reference guide.
More that they’re using the official IFPS PLUs instead of using the random numbers that this grocery store decided to use.
Bananas are standardized at PLU 4011, but this store has been using PLU 14 out of convenience to them at the expense of government agencies that need the correct numbers to approve purchases made with state-run welfare programs that restrict their use to specific produce items, like WIC.
Or with powers that uh…
Aren’t good for anyone near and including them.
I’ve been contemplating sending a business rival a bottle of whiskey for proper capatilization on the word “FastLane” as well as strict adherence to correct PLU usage in the face of absurd custom store-level PLUs, 100% get it.
Clanfolk, a (very alpha and also very playable) game that draws clear inspiration from Rimworld, but has a kind of tech progression that feels spiritually similar to bootstrapping a factory in Factorio, while being set in the Scottish Highlands.
Do you have actionable advice
