I’ve read that Steam is accepting refunds for GTAV - I’d recommend anyone who bought it there refund it.

Knitting. Always see people do it on the subway or watching tv without paying attention or trying. Spent a few hours trying to learn once and couldn’t do it.

Next you’re going to tell me to stop drinking raw rat milk?

Sounds like the advice you’d get in the first three comments asking a question on Reddit.

I used to work at Starbucks (almost a decade ago now), but at the time, the motto was “just say yes” to any customer requests. We also had free drink cards that you could give out to deesclate any issue. So I would say any time you’re even the slightest bit unhappy, bring it up, and you should at least have your problem solved, if not compensated for a free drink next time.

We also had customer satisfaction surveys that would print on reciepts, where filling one out would get the customer a free drink. We always kept them for customers that were happier to try and rig the odds in our favour of a higher rating, but also if a customer asked for one, I would give it if I had it. You could always ask the cashier if they have any of those as well.

Again, not sure how much either of those things have changed in the past 10 years, and I’m not sure how regional it was (this was in Canada at a corporately run store), but maybe worth a try.

Also I love these types of threads – great topic to post.

Specific to Germany, but when a second cashier opens up, it’s a first come first serve rush for it, rather than letting the person next inline at the original cashier take the first spot in the new one.

Google Maps already provides this, and it’s pretty handy.

I know it’s not a like for like comparison, but the Pixel 9 Pro that launched this month has 16gb of RAM.
