While I very much dislike that too, it's very easy to opt out. Just use Windows Pro, Enterprise, or education.

The entire point of recall is that it's running locally. That's why only a very very very small subset of all Windows 11 PCs support it. Only "copilot+" pc supports it which are PCs with very specific processors with AI processing. Most notably the new Snapdragon arm PCs.
you can't both be scanning an item and putting an item on the bag at the same time unless you're just dropping it there without looking (which is a problem if anything you're buying is in a glass bottle or jar).
Yes, of course you can lol.
This is starting to sound more and more like a skill issue than anything else.
Either way, I don't mind if you choose the regular checkouts. It keeps the self checkout queue free for the rest of us 😀
With self checkout you do the bagging while scanning though.
Workers bagging your stuff at a store is so incredibly weird to me. In Sweden you have to bag your own stuff and afaik it has always been like that.
Well, half a billion is still a lot of money so it's great that the union got it so they can spend it on something useful. Half a billion USD is the entire yearly revenue of some fairly large companies in Sweden.
And the fine is not intended to bankrupt Apple, it's intended to punish them and as a show of force. If Apple still refuses to comply or even pay the fine, the fines would obviously escalate and the max fine on this offence is very very high.
Also remember that the EU generally only cares what they do inside the EU, they care about how it affects EU citizens. So it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to issue brutally high fines based on yearly global revenue yet.
Any examples?
Or just killed by reality. Just because it has been (hypothetically) invented doesn't mean that it's easy or even possible to manufacture at a large scale and/or at a reasonable price.
But why, some say, the Switch? Why did they choose this as their goal? And they may well ask why climb the highest mountain? Why, 98 years ago, fly the Atlantic? Why does Rice play Texas?
They choose to go to mod a Switch. They choose to mod a Switch in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…
Yes, I think that's the point. They just wanted to play PS3 games, they would probably just buy a PS3 for cheap and be done with it.
But this person obviously thought it was more interesting to mod a switch to do it and I fully agree.
This person is the same type of person that makes DOOM run inside a PDF, or something else weird.
Through the magic of some basic research I found out that the image was likely taken in Somerset, UK
Here is a bigger image.
And here is an image supposedly taken in Somerset, UK.

~~Apart from the fact that the location is wrong, it looks quite possible that the white signs and lines are photoshopped. Not that it really matters anyways, but right should be right.~~
~~Edit 1: it might actually be real:~~

Edit 2: Just noticed that article was published on the 31 march and I found another article that confirms that the image started spreading since then: https://www.itv.com/news/westcountry/update/2015-04-01/text-lanes-introduced-in-shopping-centre/
Unfortunately I was unable to find the original post by the mall.
TL:DR: It's an April fools joke from 2015 by a shopping mall in the UK.
Sure but the queues eat but your 2 seconds of time savings.
You are also heavily exaggerating the amount of effort and time kt takes to place objects into a bag. Looking and deciding where to place objects and actually placing them aren't separate steps, it's one continuous motion. Normal people take the placement decisions while moving the object into the bag.
Bagging isn't exactly rocket science.
Or are you just absolutely incapable of multitasking? While eating do you look at the plate and ponder what piece to eat next and then you execute your grabbing maneuver. After you have done that do you think over the best way to move your fork over to your mouth and then you stop and open your mouth. After the month is open do you then move your food into your mouth…
No, of fucking course you don't. You just eat. I'm very sorry if that is the way you live but most people can make decisions on their next moves without interrupting their current move
Shopping isn't comparable to industrial assembly lines. If it were the human would be cut out completely and every object would pass through a 365 scanner or something instead.
Either way the most optimal way of shopping is what we often use in larger grocery stores in Sweden. Hand held scanners where you carry a scanner around the store and scan items before putting them in your bags and when you are don't you dock the scanner and pay, and you are done.
