I offered any friends and family that I’d buy their meals today if they tested it out. Had them download Alby Go and sent them over a NWC connection string to paste in. A few took me up on it and said it was super easy to use.
if the payment takes more than 5 seconds, the normies will lose interest; for a demonstration like that, i wud certainly test that the wallet is online and working first; of course, the normies will not appreciate how much fucking hard work went into enabling 5-seconds payment, painstakingly learning and testing for years; i suppose the enslaving party wud say the same about their fiat tools...
I bought a burger with lightning this morning. Everything worked smoothly.

I mean sometimes my CC payments take 5-10 seconds...
NWC is a great way to do that. Been thinking of using in place of some of my LND Hub wallets.
Why is the video cringe? Just a guy scanning with his phone?
There is another video further down
Exactly
This is very strange. I get this push notification when opening the link to the article within the PW

Thought the video is ok...seen worse. Dunno what the burgers and chips are like. But if they open a store in New Zealand will go and try.
I hope this spreads and soon - I love buying food with sats.
Nothing like this (nation wide fast food chain adoption) available yet here in New Zealand.
Nice
That's a nice development
