Well I am not a fan, at all, far from it, Biden is too old, he was too old 4 years ago… But it has absolutely no use to choose a new candidate 4 months before the election and still expect to get a landslide win.
Because without a landslide win there is nothing against the door to stop Trump claiming victory and destroying the USA just for the benefits of his close friends and family (and keeping himself out of jail).
Heck, it will be like last time, Trump will be found mostly on the golfcourse (and billing the government for it again) and his family and henchmen will run the country for him, ignoring the law, congress and even the constitution. 4 years later Trump will have installed one of his sons permanently in the white house, without an election.
Only an overwhelmingly Democrat win will give anyone pause and realize that Trump has no right to claim anything (again).
Currently there just is no blue candidate that the whole country knows all about and can accept enough to massively vote for, and there just is no time to present and get to know one.
I would almost say make it a dual Democratic ballot in November, any votes for either of the blue candidates go to the eventual winner. But I don’t think the republicans will allow that to happen.
These things are small experimentation gardens, big corporations are looking at these setups with interest:
It reduces overhead costs on their end, no printer costs, no paper costs, less personnel-hours needed since the customer does all the work by sorting out their own menu, adding their own email adress, and inserting their order in the system.
It might lead to the next step in ordering fast food (on site), customers ordering on their own phone (email login required) and using qr codes to transfer them to the local restaurant’s ordering kiosk…
Ofcourse the savings will only be on the corporate side and the actual food will just keep getting more expensive for the customers.
Now for the receipt thing, I don’t know the exact rules, but a written receipt must be provided if the customer asks for one. A “pin” receipt, ie. validation of payment is not a legal item to be used for tax deduction because it does not list what you bought nor the amount of tax, not sure if both percentage and the amount must be present.
It sounds a bit like you went inside a place that was a startup by some “students” with bright new ideas that were not fully thought out yet. They easily go for the bottom line in costs saving by dropping staff costs as much as they can, probably corrects itself over some time.
