  I got an invoice from Vertiloom:
• 06:59
  Sompi
  "Dear Sir / Madam [[last name]]
• 06:59
  Sompi
  Thank you for your order by Vertiloom, invoice number is . You will receive a confirmation after we receive your payment. "

  ...how am I supposed to pay

  this is the new normal, even ordering stuff online is impossible because nothing works
• 07:00
  Sompi
  this is a funny case because that online store itself doesn't seem to like Firefox, it works better on SeaMonkey

  but then I cannot pay with PayPal because it does not work with SeaMonkey anymore
• 07:01
  Sompi
  so that leaves a bank transfer as the only possible payment option, but even it doesn't work because the backend of that online store seems to be broken and it loses the values of those fields on the invoice

  I remember when online payments used no JavaScript at all, instead the browser went through a long series of html meta-refreshes but it at least fucking worked
• 07:03
  Sompi
  now nothing works anymore and I cannot get my tomato seeds
• 07:07
  Sompi
  ...and no-one is surprised of any of this
• 07:07
  Sompi
  this is the new normal
