The last two years here have made this much harder. A good chunk of the restaurants around here can't be bothered to print menu's anymore. Its QR code + phone or go somewhere else. Similarly with credit cards, even trying to use cash at the farmers market has gotten much more difficult in the last couple years as the vendors have all gotten card readers and stopped accepting cash.
Plus, it seems like piles of people think text messages are a form of security and want to text everything from a receipt to pin codes. Much of this sorta makes me sick because some of these "solutions" are much worse than what they are replacing (e-menus are overwhelmingly trash for example, web people should be forced to take desktop publishing classes before being allowed near HTML).

- t3ssel 5y agoHere in Europe, banks are now kinda forcing people to use their mobile applications as a "security measure" (2FA, etc). Not doing so can prevent you from using your credit cards online or in some shops. It's probably the main reason I have a smartphone. Have you ever had those issues before? How do you cope with it?
