@0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange @hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange @catsalad@infosec.exchange my very European brain is looking at this and is very much thinking wtf... Are they at least going through electronically, or is this still the carbon paper embossing thing ? My brain is very confused.

@quixoticgeek@social.v.st @0xabad1dea@infosec.exchange @hacks4pancakes@infosec.exchange @catsalad@infosec.exchange It's almost certainly an electronic terminal, not the carbon-paper thingy. More and more, the server brings a terminal to you. However, the custom is still that to signal you are ready to pay, you put your credit card on the bill (or inside the folio holding the bill, sticking out so it is visible). I sat for quite a while waiting to pay before remembering this step.
