Taco Bell rethinks AI drive-through after man orders 18,000 waters

Reply in thread

I'm gonna guess you have never worked in fast food.

Window times are the metric they die by. Generally speaking, they start making your order the SECOND you order it, before you ever leave the ordering screen. Yes, even if the order changes mid order. Yes, they make, and throw away lots of food that is not paid for, forgotten, etc ... TONS of food (literally) is thrown away daily.

As for the water order? I would 1000% start making that order. If the higher ups think the AI is working correct, well then who am I to question it? Nobody who works fast food is paid enough to give a shit.

The official Nintendo Museum appears to be emulating SNES games on a Windows PC, which is slightly embarrassing

Not in so many words, but this is from their official website:

"While we recognize the passion that players have for classic games, supporting emulation also supports the illegal piracy of our products."

Do you still write notes with pen and paper?

I'm a millennial and I still write notes with pen and paper simply because I can't be bothered to learn how to format in a notes app of any kind.

All of my notes are formatted in a bizarre way that makes sense to me. Applying that format in a digital space is always a giant headache.

I am switching to using Obsidian. Skipping the formatting all together and instead linking all my disjointed ideas to each other seems to be working pretty well.

[Discussion] Which Soulslike will you be playing this weekend and which "easy boss" took you an embarrassingly long time to beat?

I do not know what the hell is wrong with me, but the very first boss in Lies of P (the parade master), is my exact antithesis. Every other boss generally only takes me 2-3 tries at most, but I think I spent like 4 hours trying to kill that fucker.

And before you ask, yes, he still spanks me later in the game, and every time I start a new game.
