I can make much better coffee at home, and I can take one with me to work in a flask.

But lots of people don't want to, dont have time to, or can't make fresh coffee at home and therefore buy it out.

But even if i make it at home, if I want a second coffee during the work day, I'd have to either have instant coffee from work or buy one.

FWIW: My take on Starbucks is that their coffee is a) usually quite average at best, b) variable quality depending upon where you buy it.

Where I live there are lots of alternatives which serve better coffee for about the same price, so I don't really see any need to use Starbucks.

Last time I had a Starbucks was on a road trip at a motorway service station. It wasn't very good coffee at all, and afterwards I resented having paid service station prices for a coffee I didn't enjoy. But in that scenario they have a captive audience.

Is that a thing people do, is it?

Yes, but there is a line at which point the art can no longer be seen.

For example, I can't listen to the lost prophets any more.

Idiocracy.

Loved the idea. Film itself... meh

Does picoreplayer work OK on the first gen boards?

Stop+a crew.

Sun keyboards had dedicated copy and paste keys.

Also the illusive "Stop" key that you needed to break into the boot rom.

People used to do this in the UK with their ZX spectrums.

They look awful.

Quick game of repton anyone?

Ha. Haaaaaaa. Noses of dowels!

As in Nazereth. People from Nazareth.

In Spain they are called Nazarenos and are integral to the easter ceremonies of Semana Santa.

In the UK it's the Hokey Cokey.

So what is it?

TIL some places call it the Hokey Pokey.

An influencer's review only makes me wary of a product and makes me question their motives.

But I guess others don't see it that way, or they wouldn't be doing it.

Exactly!

Why would I use such a browser?

I was recently told that 16GB wasn't much for ZFS...
