“There’s been a massive paradigm shift in the way people are thinking about shopping — and especially shopping local — during COVID,” Khan told 680 CJOB.

“The response… you go anywhere, and everyone wants to support locals.”

Khan said he came up with the website earlier in the pandemic because he wanted to support local businesses but wasn’t sure how to do so.

“As a local guy who wanted to support local… I created a platform where everything good and everything local can be on Goodlocal.

40 food deliveries

Residents of Barangay Mabolo, Cebu on Wednesday morning were surprised when over 30 food delivery drivers consecutively arrived in the area after a 7-year old accidentally made multiple online orders due to a laggy internet connection.

According to Nico Sereno’s report on “24 Oras” on Friday, a resident of Sitio Our Lady of Remedies said the child’s internet connection was so slow that the child did not know that they had made multiple orders of chicken and fries.

“Pindot siya ng pindot dahil error so nag create na naman siya ng ibang order kasi error. Kaya ang nangyari nagiging multiple order na siya,” Dann Kayne Suarez said.

The child had ordered from 40 riders. However, only 33 arrived as some canceled.

Meanwhile, Suarez bought four food deliveries from the riders that cost P189 each as he felt sorry for them.

PlayStation 5 orders crashed Walmart’s website again

Posted on November 19, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

The PlayStation 5 launched last Thursday, but it has been nearly impossible to buy.
The only certain way to get a PlayStation 5 at launch was by preordering it. But at least one retailer is selling PS5s digitally on a first-come, first-served basis: Walmart.
The first drop of PlayStation 5 consoles was at noon ET on launch, and it promptly took down the entire Walmart web store.
A resupply one week later had the same results: Walmart’s whole web store was down temporarily as interest in the PlayStation 5 overwhelmed the site. The console sold out nearly instantly.

PS5 Faceplate Site Cancels Orders After Sony Threatens Legal Action

Posted on November 2, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

If you were hoping to customize your new PS5 with a fancy custom faceplate, you may have to wait for an official Sony solution. A company offering replacement PS5 plates in a variety of colors has canceled orders after being threatened with a lawsuit.

Speaking to VGC, a representative from Customize My Plates–which had been known as PlateStation5 until a few days ago–confirmed that it was canceling all plate orders. It cited Sony’s legal threats as the reason behind both its name change, which Sony said infringed on its own trademarks, as well as the cancellations.

“… Sony’s lawyers told us it was their opinion [that] Sony’s intellectual property extended to the faceplates, and that if we continued to sell and distribute them in any country, we would end up in court,” the representative said.

It will be abandoning the console customization business, but it’s unlikely Customize My Plates will

Starbucks Lost $1 Billion in Sales but 25 Percent of Orders Now Come From Mobile App

Posted on November 2, 2020 / by [email protected]_84 /

When the pandemic hit, businesses immediately felt the pain as many had to shut their doors. Even the ones that were able to stay open had to quickly figure out how to make drastic changes to the way they served their customers and protected their employees from the spread of Covid-19.

Restaurants and coffee shops remained open, but in many cases, only for take-out or drive-thru service. Remarkably, many have managed to keep going, but only after a very harsh reality check. Starbucks, for example, says it lost about $1.2 billion in sales due to limited operations, reduced hours, and even closures.

Still, the company reported its quarterly earnings last week and managed to exceed expectations largely due to a decision it made years ago. Analysts had expected Starbucks to earn $6.06 billion, but despite the decrease in customer traffic due to the pandemic, the company’s generated $6.2 billion for

Bot orders $18,752 of McSundaes every 30 min. to find if machines are working

…why?

The Verge interviewed Zahid about his project once his tweet announcing it took off.

He started the project examining McDonald’s locations in Germany, where he lives. He biked around Berlin, physically visiting McDonald’s locations to see if McBroken’s data was correct. After it passed that test, he expanded to the US. He also found out shortly after launch that the one-minute time frame was too quick—the app pretty quickly pegged him as a bot and cut off access. Trying to add a McSundae to the cart every 30 minutes, however, keeps McBroken up to date and appears to meet the McDonald’s app’s human-seeking standards.

This is not the first time a customer has tried to develop a technological workaround to McDonald’s corporate problems. In 2017, a woman named Raina McLeod created an app to track if McDonald’s ice cream machines were working. As McLeod explained to BuzzFeed at the

A number of Apple cusomers are already seeing products announced during Apple’s second special event arrive on their doorsteps, with MagSafe chargers, the 20W USB-C power adapter, and other items arriving ahead of the iPhone 12 range.

Announced on Tuesday alongside the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro models, Apple revealed it was introducing improved versions of accessories for its devices, including major changes to its charging accessories. Based on social media reports, it seems some users are already getting their accessories in advance of an anticipated delivery of an iPhone.

One post from Mihir Joshi posted to Twitter shows both a MagSafe Charger and the USB-C 20W Power Adapter, both in and out of their boxes. While MagSafe uses a collection of magnets to align perfectly with the iPhone 12 and other supportive hardware, the customer observed that there’s some alignment possibilities for wireless charging of older
