7 out of every 10 times someone adds products to a shopping cart, they don’t actually proceed with the payment.
Shopping cart software often has a feature called “cart recovery” that prompts people to complete their purchase if they are part of that 70%. However, it requires the customer to have at least put their email in during the checkout process they didn’t fully complete.
It is common for these entered email address to be stored for marketing/spam emails. A bit of a grey area legally actually.

Abandoned cart recovery emails. They are implemented on a few websites but obviously requires them to have your email which has its own costs.

Most emergencies get sent more cars than you might expect, so it’s likely not as serious or newsworthy as all the action seems to indicate.
Here’s the pager callout for 10.30 this morning:

So Lemmy fell over instead? I’m sorry for besmirching YarraByte’s name.
- Comment on Discussion Thread 🐸 Wednesday 22 April 2026 2 weeks ago:
I think it’s really important that YarraByte creates this thread.
I see Lemmy 1.0 (currently in Alpha) has post scheduling by default, which I’m sure will solve this almost completely. In the meantime, have mods/admin exhausted all other options to keep YB stable? Could we chip in for a good quality webcron service? They’re pretty cheap.

Does anyone here know if you can get beeswax at Vic Market? Was thinking the honey place maybe?

After being so good for so many years, I think I’m gonna need a filling after my next checkup. Maybe too much chocolate just before bed…

“We don’t deliver to parcel lockers”
Oh yeah? AusPost’s in-transit redirection says otherwise.

I’ve found ozbargain a great source for plans. I’m now on a 365 day 300 GB Optus plan for what will effectively be $70 ($220 + $150 gift card). Looks like there are a few good options at the moment with Boost, Optus and Vodafone or if you’re not in a rush you can keep an eye out.

I’ve been using Affinity more now that it’s a unified free app (genius) and I’m starting to realise that I’m learning how to use it the same way I learnt how to use Photoshop. Slowly, gradually over time as I need to achieve various things.
I made this little explainer that approximates what we are seeing in the Earthset image. It makes it way easier to pick out the Indochina Peninsula and Borneo on the left of crescent Earth, and potentially a little peek of Antarctica on the right.

The Earthset picture from Artemis II features Australia front and centre. No other location on Earth is readily identifiable. We’re famous!
