What makes you think they'd change prices on a whim? More likely they'll change the prices based on whatever they learn from the browser fingerprint of whoever at your table is first to scan the code. Better get the intern to go first, just in case.
Greed is unlimited.

OF COURSE THEY HAVE TO FUCKING CAPITALIZE "NOT USING YOUR PHONE" AND MEETING REAL PEOPLE
FUCK THIS EXISTANCE
So like meetup.com? At least there it's true younger people don't show up on any of the events

That's not capitalism

Big if true
The article is lacking some hard numbers.
It cites Bitcom on constant high screen time
But Bitcom is an industrial lobby group. They are for example anti-privacy and anti-data protection. I wouldn't expect them to publish anything which is not in the interest of Big Tech. -

The kids are going to be alright. They grew up with phones and learned in schools that there are times when it's inappropriate to use it.
I'm much more worried about the older people who have absolutely no etiquette for phone usage.

When the grandparents come over they sit and fiddle candy crush and Facebook like their life depended on it.

Meetup was bought by Bending Spoons, one of the worst predatory companies around. It's dying.

They can also easily change their pricing when there's a higher demand or any other whim.
Let's be honest: The amount of work to print out one or two pages and put it into one of those menu thingies is near zero. They are also quite cheap, you can keep around multiple printed menus without breaking the bank. This is not preventing restaurants from changing their prices

I didn't know, but it's not dying. It's a lot more active than some years ago
