I havent had the time to watch the video, but reading your description Beside the electrics and the UK/London specifics, it's pretty much the same here.
Although tipping? You generally dont do that. Only usually like if it rounds it up to a simple number in cash. But everything is payed with card here really, so there is a set number to pay. Catches us off guard that other/neighbouring countries often either dont do card or are surprised when you pull one.
