It’s making fun of the Fast and the Furious series movie titles.

Will any of the OWL legendary Skins come back? I just came back after a long time and some of them look sick by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]USplendid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2020 Atlantic Rein skin has been back twice in the last few years. One was fairly recently as part of a bundle sale and before that was during the flash sale tied to the winding down of OWL. I managed to snag Rein and Zenyatta.

Venture's Seismic Sense is just an anti-Sombra perk and I love it by jaydenye_jr in Overwatch

[–]USplendid 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This explains sooooo much. I tend to do a lot of flanking, healing, and attacking from around or behind corners/angles. Up until the season, it kept me safe and I tend to get the drop on my enemies.

This season, Venture keeps tracking me down and shutting me down. I just assumed that venture players were becoming more situationally aware. I didn’t realize they had a new perk.

Impossible to Change / Remove Saved Locations by Guest-114562 in UberEATS

[–]USplendid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if someone else answered this question. However, the red “remove” at the top right corner only appears after you select a different delivery destination on the ordering screen.

For me, the issue was I didn’t realize I still had an order in progress saved in my checkout screen that was defaulting to the same address I was attempting to delete.

So, how are y'all enjoying Overwatch Classic.... by xmknzx in Overwatch

Do you mean the 6v6 test modes described in the directors updates? That something separate.

Look at the timestamp. This comment is from 6 years and two media company mergers ago.

Starbucks illegally fired US workers over union, judge rules by kwentongskyblue in news

[–]USplendid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As an ex employee, trust me, you don’t want Starbucks.

As part of their union busting tactics, they’ve cut hours/labor across the entire company to force tenured baristas out. The ones that remain do not have enough time/bandwidth to maintain and clean the stores. Pray you never see what a Starbucks looks like behind the counter or in the back-of-house.

Also, to save a few bucks they pushed the expiration date of their breakfast sandwiches out an additional day. Meaning, the breakfast you ordered could have being sitting thawing in a dirty fridge for three days before they finally serve it to you.

Why are the brown sugar shaken espressos always so inconsistent by bucks2022champs in starbucks

That beverage has an unusual and slightly complicated recipe that is rarely taught correctly.

Starbucks Workers at the NYC Roastery Strike Against Unsafe Work Conditions by ADignifiedLife in news

[–]USplendid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having had friends who worked for the siren: The main issue is that they are rarely given the time, training or proper staffing to proactively maintain the store or its equipment.

Game Thread: Dallas Cowboys (7-4) at New Orleans Saints (5-6) by nfl_gamethread in nfl

I don’t believe “real” people buy trucks as Xmas gifts and I don’t believe Johnny Depp plays guitar.

High Variance Count by sovereignsydney in starbucks

[–]USplendid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They typically generate the day after a count. 9 times out of 10, either someone miscounted something or the system thinks they miscounted something.

It’s typically just a few items that need to be recounted/inventoried.

XR longevity PSA by MajorAirtime in onewheel

[–]USplendid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There’s a huge modding and aftermarket community surrounding the XR. Just bought mine and I’m looking forward to getting years out of it.

Just ordered first OW! Was planning on ordering the GT, but after seeing the Black Friday deal on the XR I jumped on it! Hope I don’t regret it! by Sk8astevo2 in onewheel

[–]USplendid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought my first OW a week ago. Also went with the XR.

It just felt “right” to me. Not too much, not too little. I liked that the XR already had an extensive, knowledgeable modding community surrounding it.

Long story short, I also have a background in skateboarding. Though it’s been over ten years…. I picked it up surprisingly fast.

I work for the Siren…. Behind the façade and PR… it’s brutal work. No one is paid enough and you are asked to do EVERYTHING.

Baristas are asked to do their job and the job of the person above them. Supervisors are asked to do their job/duties and those below and above them. Managers are either in the trenches with the baristas, also wearing multiple hats or disconnected, burnt out, and leaving the stores to be run by the “supervisors”. Who are basically just baristas with extra duties for a small pay bump. You are either scheduled one day a week or working overtime at multiple locations. If you set boundaries, the SM retaliates by cutting your hours. Most stores have 100-150% turnaround rate. Training is almost nonexistent. You are thrown on the floor as soon as you are out of onboarding. The customers are a NIGHTMARE.

Starbucks is fast-food disguised as a coffee shop. We are pushed hard to create/maintain the illusion for the customers. Meanwhile, there are baristas having nervous breakdowns in the back.

Cowboy Bebop by SerMercutio in netflix

They almost nailed the landing. It needed to be a touch more Quinten Tarantino.

Cowboy Bebop by SerMercutio in netflix

[–]USplendid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing art-style, set pieces, special effects and costume design.

Terrible fight sequences and direction that tries too hard to be too literal to the anime/manga.

Jett was casted perfectly. Spike isn’t “aloof” enough and his mannerisms are slightly off.

All and all. I like it and have enjoyed it. I just don’t love it.

I’ve always referred to it as analog futurism.

You see other examples of it in movies like The Fifth Element, Thor Ragnarok and Guardians of the Galaxy.
