    As an introvert I’d rather not use self checkouts. The possibility that something will go wrong and I’ll have to call someone over and explain it and have them fix it is much higher than letting someone qualified scan and bag my shit while I stand there silently waiting to pay as both the cashier and myself refuse to talk or make eye contact.

    Plus I worked at a walmart for a year as right as they rolled out their mostly self checkout system. So many people lost jobs and the store lost so much money to shrinkage (theft). It’s the dumbest fucking thing. Makes perfect sense to have a few for people with only a handful of items but the vast majority should be cashiers.

    This meme was brought to us by big self checkout and makes no sense at all IMO.

    It appears that it is getting close to a full release for Sync for Lemmy. My only concert is that it might go to a subscription only method of payment. I’d rather pay a lot for a one time unlock or even like a 2 year unlock instead of a monthly subscription.

    Im getting subscription burnout and I’m sick of having to juggle literally a hundred subscriptions every month. If it does go subscription based, sadly I’ll probably pass on it. Which would be a sad close to a long history of using sync.
