Never heard of them up to a few days ago. :-\
Now seeing them mentioned a lot. ;)
Reading conflicking things about it all. :-\

Technology that you actually use is an appropriate level to your needs and makes life easier... Automatic sprinklers would be an example.
Not watching the news is no bad thing. As long as you know what is happening around you and how it directly impacts you is enough... Local roadworks or a change in opening hours at the local shop.
The greater world doesn't fret much about you, so why waste your time with things that someone else thinks is important to you... ;)

We'll get well acquainted with QR codes when they've expanded the use of the vaccine pass (or Opportunity Pass as it's called in Lithuania) so that you have to show it even to get into your local corner shop. ::) :-X

Stop being so negative ::) Mr Skrunts will still be able to buy bread and milk etc on the black market , without a QR pass :P
Oh :-[
Has "black market" been renamed :-\ I've not used it recently ;D
-
I know what they are, but Ive never felt an urge to use them. :)
-
Anyone who wants to get into a nightclub or large event from today will know what a QR code is.

Have it on good authority that ration coupons are being printed as we speak so stock up on tinned goods etc asap..😂😂😂
The end of the world is nigh 😂😂
Love the negativity on here.

Rationing wouldn’t affect most forum members. They still have the spare bedroom full of bog rolls, pasta, tinned goods etc to last a thousand years.

Whats a night club.? :-\
I think I went into one when I was 18 and it was full of drunken idiots so not been in one simce. :(

Thought the phone should be able to scan these codes but I cant suss out how to do it (Galaxy S7 Edge)

The camera app on my S9 will recognise QR codes - I don't know if that applies to the S7 :-\
Alternatively - there are dedicated QR reader apps. I installed one on my S5 a few years ago but never actually needed to use it..............

Its just a 3d barcode. Link you get on any Royal Mail prepaid postage, or Amazon delivery.
Nothing special about them.

Actually, they can be 2D or 3D. Technically, they can be (long) 1D as well, but that's incredibly rare.
But yes, I did actually mean to type 2D... ...butterfinggers ;D

The reason I started this thread was the site I was on wanted me to add credit/debit card details but wanted to verify my age via the QR code/ face pic verification. :-\
Surely the fact I have a credit card should suffice
I dont agree they should have a pic of my mug even though they say its instantly deleted.
:-\
The site they forwarded me to didnt work - once I started to use my phone rather than my PC it didnt manage to do the job either. :-X

My Lituanian friend had the same trouble she was telling me last night that her bank requires it for her to change her pension. :-\

You don't want the site to have your mug shot but you are happy to give them your card details?
QR codes are a way of translating a long string of text & numbers into a non-threatening looking image.
Vaccine passports use the QR code to encode a long string to identify you and your status.
Scammers can use a QR code to obfuscate a web link that you wouldn't normally choose to click on if you could see it as text.
Just saying.

I dont like my picture taken and once on the net then its there forever.
The only legal documents I have come accross so far that require my mug are all our government requirements (Driving licence - Passport - NSI) and so far my mug shot aint on any of them either. :-X
As for my card details they are used every where and I have some degree of protection to get any monies back. (plus issues in my life mean I dont/cant get out to use cash) :-\

fair enough - I wasn't advocating for putting your photo up, I was questioning whether you were happy to enter your card details.

I still find it childishly amusing when I'm asked to produce my driving licence as ID, as it's the old green style paper licence. ::) I progressed to that from the little red book. ::)

There was me thinking that the 250 in your username was the engine size, not your age :P
