Soda Machines for Geeks?
PhaseBurn writes "In all my findings, I've yet to see things like
Bawls
or Jolt
in a soda machine. Even bottled water is hard to come by... Working in a call center for an ISP, we don't have to worry too much about what's popular with the rest of the world, and so, I'm tasked with finding a vending machine replete for geeks. While Jolt can come out of any normal soda machine that
supports plastic bottles, the glass Bawls bottles woultn't fare so well. Do they make a soda machine that would work for this? What's around your office... And what's popular among the geeks today, as I want it to appeal to the vast majority of our staff?" Why use a vending machine when a community cooler would work just as well. With that aside, what kind of beverages would you like to see more of in vending machines?
I'm getting sick of every single fucking Ask Slashdot question having more replies of "Dur, this is a stoopid question!" and "What are j00, some kind of moron?" rather than an actual exchange of information.
Have you ever stopped to consider that perhaps the reason that no meaningful exchange of information occurs in this section of slashdot is because the questions being asked here of late are completely inane?
Ask slashdot used to be good. The questions used to be intriguing and required a little more thought thank simply linking to a fucking Google search. Nowadays, they're just Slashdot-Retarded, thoughtless ponderances with as much conversation potential as a pile of dogshit. "What kind of electric dork cars are there?" USE GOOGLE. "What kind of laptops have good linux driver support?" USE GOOGLE. "Where can I get good geek shit for my right hand^W^Wgirlfriend?" SHUT UP, ASK A REAL FUCKING QUESTION, AND USE GOOGLE!
It's hard to engender any sort of worthwhile conversation when the only answers you can really give are pointers to websites. There hasn't been a thought-provoking question on Ask Slashdot in months.
