  • I'm not so sure about that, they studied Starbucks' quasi-monopoly for quite some time and then decided to beat them with better coffee.

    So at least they had a plan, unlike KFC with their "me too" approach. That stuff is so bad I'll rather risk headaches on a 10h flight than to refuel with that garbage.

  • My assumption would be that the display is not related to operating the elevator, but rather displaying information about businesses on the respective floors. I've seen those a fair few times, and since they run on isolated networks or even fully local, there's little risk.

  • The issue is that the USD is the main trade currency in the world, and all transactions in USD need to be cleared by banks in the US. Since Cuba is banned from trading in USD, they need to trade directly in their import/export partners home currency, which exposes them to additional currency fluctuations, and complicates the whole settlement process.

  • Excessive? It's an entertainment show. Just like they tilt the camera to the sky and mute the audio when a runner gets onto a sports pitch during a live broadcast to not give them an audience, muting calls from the audience during a concert is just about the same. You might agree with the message, but that doesn't mean it's justified.

  • I got a rather broad taste, from fantasy/sci-fi over crime/thriller/action to dramas and even the odd romance. My favorite animated movie (it that's what you're trying to figure out) would probably be some Disney classics like Lion King or Jungle Book.

  • Yeah that's the same I keep hearing from everyone who likes the movies, and I've heard/read lengthy explanations of a few of them, and was pushed to rewatch a couple with various groups or individuals. Most often I think that movie with the dirty river god in some bath house, forgot what it's called.

    I believe I must have watched 5 or 6, most of which more than once, and it's seriously not my cup of tea.

  • I'm one of the people that don't get the appeal. I've watched a few highly praised ones and found them to be incredibly boring.

  • Controllers are shit. Nothing beats precise keyboard & mouse inputs.

    I've been playing some shooters online against a bunch of consoleros, and was accused of cheating time and time again simply for being able to aim more precise.

  • Oh nice, maybe it's time to switch after all. It's been a pending feature on Sync since forever.

  • Send a GDPR deletion request in accordance to article 18 to whoever they mention in the imprint as data security officer.

    All it takes is claiming to have moved to the EU.

  • Yeah I follow all 3 people I know that use it. Hooray.

  • Why bother taking the survey then, or is it somehow mandatory?

  • I tried to use it, but honestly without an algorithm, it's simply an empty page. And I don't want to follow hashtags, since there's usually too much semi-relevant garbage linked to those. So either I have a curated feed of only the people I follow, which gets boring, or I got nothing at all.

  • It's a start though. As long as they can't legally get elected, they can't change the system from the inside. The NSDAP was a legally elected party.

  • Most people use Windows for work and can't switch, no matter how much they'd want to.
