Conventionally, when we need something, we visit the market, enter the shops, and ask for our commodities. But with shopping apps having come up, all we need is just look up the items in our mobile phone, click on it, make the payment, and lo! in 10 minutes the door bell rings and the commodity arrives. Isn’t it the exact relation between a server and the client ??
Um. If you really live like that you should change now.
I always get flustered when I see statements like these. I do my shopping IRL. In the past I used to visit specialised shops (electronics parts etc.) - but I lived urban then, now I live in the countryside and I almost exclusively order such stuff online. That has changed.
Am I an exception? Doesn’t look like it when I go shopping.
