I mean, some things are just fine when they are the cheapest?

Your hardware has to have support for Linux, not the other way around.
Windows is not a serious OS anymore.
Randall is offically carpilled
Violent crime isn’t the only crime that results in violence either.
Road deaths and injuries are way up and prosecution for killing someone with a car is constantly excused and dismissed even as people get more negligent (screen use) and risky behind the wheel.
Bread is cheaper than beef.
IDK how much beef is in a McDonalds burger these days, but still.
Because oil money
Keeping their grid only in Texas allows their energy sector to skirt federal regulations since it doesn’t fall under the Interstate Commerce Clause.
Skipping federal environmental and Safety regulations allows texas energy Corporations to be more profitable.
Su-34s are practically target practice at this point.
On-demand (or surge) power generation like this is much different then base power generation like you get from solar, wind or nuclear (or theoretically fusion).
Long story short, any functional power grid needs both because generation has to match demand, and demand is uneven and wonky.
The most common surge power source is small natural gas plants. This is a replacement for those.
It presumes there will be extra electricity.
There’s always extra electricity. Eg. Solar generates power during the day, charges this “battery” and then powers lighting at night when demand is higher and people need to be able to see.
Macbook? Chromebook?
Honestly, anything is better than Windows. But don’t switch to Linux unless you are actually interested in Linux.
Longtime Linux user, here…
Mass slavery doesn’t sound very charitable.
What percentage of people living in Saudi Arabia are allowed to be citizens?
~55% I think.
The rest might as well be dirt.
In the 40s and 50s they all agreed on kicking those same Jews out of their counties, though.
Plenty of independent coffee shops sell Lotus energy drinks for this exact reason.
To add to all this, if most of your customers are seriously there to taste their flavored syrups and milk of their favorite drink, you wouldn’t want to alter or even ruin that with unexpected, unique coffee flavors.
He just means “feature phone”
Dark Roasted coffee is the only way Starbucks can be Starbucks.
Lighter-roasted coffee emphasizes origin flavors and i agree with you --generally tastes better and is more interesting.
But you can’t sell coffee like that in tens of thousands of coffee shops and have it remotely consistent.
Coffee growing from the same plot but on one side of a hill will taste different from the other side due to getting different quantities of sunlight. Complex origin flavors will always be the domain of small specialty coffee shops.
Starbucks has McDonalds-like consistency serving millions of customers a day and that’s only because they emphasize the flavors they can get consistently–roast flavors.
TL;DR The bigger the chain, the darker you have to roast. That’s just how coffee works.
Sounds like they couldn’t hear you, bro.
Maybe just follow their instructions.
Malta, then *poof*
