  • 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.






  • I’ve not watched the video, but the wording/tone/language of the title stinks of sensationalism and pseudo-science.

    If I were to click it, which I won’t, I imagine it’d be clickbait and/or nothing to do with eggs or pans.

    EDIT: Based on feedback. I did click. The actual video title is “How one company secretly poisoned the planet” and despite sounding a bit clickbaity, it’s actually on-topic.

    I guess my BS detector has been on overdrive recently.

    EDIT 2: I watched the whole video and now I feel sad.
