My guess is on Wendy's. But the real trick will be how to make the drive-through person obsolete. Either through an app that produces a QR code that you scan - or a drive up touch screen - or something.
I've tried to make edits. There was a page where I had cited evidence from multiple sources that my change should be accepted, and no reason was given just a "nope". So why bother?
Please, just have the fights and keep the 15 minute back stories to a minimum. I don't care about the plight of some person in their garage who's only dream is to be in a robot fight.
Jokes on you pal - I DVR all my shows and fast forward through the commercials. Sure you can pump in a ton of subliminal messaging, but those 30 second clips are never seen
I think that depends on the individual person.
For me, it was less time gaming in general and picking up different hobbies. Whether that be something like gardening, tinkering, sporting events, or a different game, that's entirely up to you. Leisure time is limited and should be used to the best of it's ability. As far as games go? I check out Steam for sales - Banished is my vice at the moment.
I think one of the biggest problems has been the PvE vs. PvP issue. You have two groups of people, those that like to PvP and those that like to do raids. I know some overlap, but more often than not they didn't. Patches would be made to "balance" for one set and end up "nerfing" the other.
The other issue is server migration. While yes, you can cross-realm raid find to raid with any random group of people; it's hard to make solid progression if you're not in a raid group. While this is well & good, some servers are a total ghost town and you must pay the troll toll to server hop. Ultimately, there are too many things they need to fix and I don't have to wait anymore.
I played since Vanilla and I think I've finally had enough. There are way too many alternatives out there and the time crunch to raid in anything more than a semi-casual group is too cumbersome
Numbers are in swift decline from expansion to expansion with the typical "bounce" that temporarily occurs upon release. While I am only one person, I know many that have quit as of late and these are players from vanilla. This expansion will have to blow the doors off and be far better than Pandaria or it's bad times

Thank god some places don't believe in such madness
You are all cows. Cows say moo. MOOOOOOOO! MOOOOOOO! Moo cows MOOOOOO! Moo say the cows. YOU COWS!!
Or it could be that some people don't want to date bar flies or people in their existing social circle. The world is a big place and if there's a tool out there to make the process easier, who cares. I met my wife of several years via online dating. Would I have come across her otherwise? Based on our social circles, the clubs we were in and the places we hung out at - all signs point to no.
I'd be curious to see how it responds to really weird northeast conditions like a snow squall or black-ice. Or my personal favorite, when it's really snowing and you need to make sure you're stopped in a good spot that you can get traction once you can start moving again
Site builds large user base.
Site gets some VC money and thinks they can make a profit.
Site realizes they need to make changes but changes cheese off the majority of it's user base and they go elsewhere.
Site becomes a ghost town.
Remember Fark? Remember Digg? This is what will happen with Reddit. First they came for the fatties, and I didn't care because I don't have condishons. Then they came for the racists and I didn't care because I'm not racist. But then they came for the rest of the site and no one was left
Throw him in big boy prison if he wants to be a tough guy swatting people. The kid got lucky that he's not 18. A few months in gen-pop being traded like a pack of Pokemon cards would teach him a valuable lesson
The firing doesn't even matter, it's the lack of a plan. If you're going to have one person be such a key piece in arguably one of your most popular subs, you better have a really good plan in place in the event they quit/resign/are hit by a bus. There wasn't
When your community is what generates the revenue and the articles and the commentary, you have to be careful to not go too far too fast. Was Victoria fired with cause? I don't know and I don't care - but you need to have contingency plans in place. It's clear there wasn't.
If it's state run that's fine, just make sure it's not a "jobs program" where people are never fired or held accountable for their actions. I don't want something like TSA where people are rummaging through luggage for SWAG
Could you imagine a hyperloop system being run by unions? Look at places like Washington DC where their mass transit *union run* has resulted in trains crashing into each other and trains going into a tunnel that's on fire only to lead to someone dying of smoke inhalation.
This would be so much worse.
Not shocked Slashdot is only posting the story now and not even mentioning the retraction. This is the same group of people that sat on the Sourceforge story as long as they could.

My guess is it was those darn extreme radical Mennonites at it again

I'd love to spend some time trying to make it better, but every edit I've had has been declined. So ya, good luck with that

Any system that people can game, will be gamed.

Maybe she's waiting for a 2.7 million dollar buyout? And that Jesse Jackson AMA wasn't even that bad. Far better than Rampart

Before anyone else is offended, it's time to just ban google image search along with any youtube videos of the Dukes Of Hazard

Take your male privilege out of here. Clearly we must show everyone is equal by making sure boys aren't equal

That too. Might as well go dumping a can of petrol across the bridge on the way out
