I took the stock photo of coins to suggest that they disabled the App, leaving the only means to pay as the old fashioned method.

- Insanity 8y agoAhh okay, that occured to me but was not sure. Thanks for elaborating :)
- 3chelon 8y agoThis is why I so love the millenials' habit of communicating via hieroglyphs when we have perfectly good words.
- gmjoe 8y agoWhat do millenials have to do with it? You think baby boomers don't use emoji too? Relax and have some fun. ;)
- EForEndeavour 8y agoSpeaking as a millennial, millennials as an age group have a lot to do with it. Have you actually communicated in writing with people of varying age groups? It's blatantly obvious to anyone with "millennial" / "Gen Y" (loosely: born after 1985) family or friends that emoji use is heavily driven by younger users.

- 3chelon 8y agolol (if you'll pardon the irony of that)... Although I grant you that plenty of baby boomers (and even older folks) do in fact use emojis, you can't seriously be arguing that they do so more than younger generations? I would love to see some actual research on this. I have a completely untested theory, purely based on direct observation of my own friends and family, that the people who use emojis the most are those with the lowest writing skills. If that turns out to be true then emojis are in fact exacerbating the problem, because it doesn't much matter if my mother uses emojis instead of learning to spell, but I'd be very concerned if my daughter did.
- fenomas 8y agoThe coins are arranged in the "glider" hacker logo, so there's probably no more meaning to it than that.
