daftykins | :) | 15:14 |
penguin42 | just went and got some veg and fruit yesterday; everything else I already had | 16:11 |
daftykins | just overheard a guy trying to track down where to buy a Santa suit... hah | 16:13 |
zxmpi | if he waits till the 26th he'll snap up a bargin! :-) | 16:25 |
zxmpi | someone somewhere is looking at the time, realising everywhere will be shutting at 6pm and only now deciding to start their crimbo shopping. | 16:35 |
daftykins | and online has killed so many shops so there's no more Arnie rushing around for the last toy | 16:37 |
zxmpi | just more boarded up shops between the shops he's running between. but still running from shop to shop | 16:38 |
penguin42 | I did like this drone delivery video; delivering to kiosks; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAcLvPp_AYE | 16:57 |
daftykins | wow, quite elaborate | 17:10 |
penguin42 | yeh you can see it open the roof, and it's obviously storing themsomewhere inside to retrieve | 17:37 |
penguin42 | right, first Sale purchase made; 4 Polo shirts from Next | 17:37 |
zxmpi | i just have a funny feeling that the drone delivery thing will start great but after a year or two when they start to get bad weather or heavy usage they'll fall out of the sky and hit people | 21:38 |
penguin42 | meh it's China, as long as it doesn't hit too many that's fine | 21:41 |
daftykins | hah yeah it's a best-effort service | 21:41 |
