I hear you man and I feel your pain! I am also fed up with these places where you have to know a new language to get an overpriced cup of coffee either alto, benti, macciato,... WTH?!
I ended up buyin a new coffee machine for my office that holds the coffee bens, grinds them, ads the water and brews a perfect cup everytime I please and exactly the way I want it. Now all my coworkers are standing in line to get a cup at my desk but I don't mind as long as they chip in for a new bag of grains every now and then. Life is simple and ggod.
Good coffee does not need sugar and bad coffee doesn't deserve it!

I agree with your observation 100%. I prefer black, coffee flavored coffee, as strong as possible. Also, size is small, medium, large, not venti, grande, or whatever. I enjoy irritating the Starbucks barista's with the size. Actually it's funny to listen to the Starbucks drive-thru customers ordering all the chemical concoctions from their cars. Drive-thru's are another nit I make fun of, but we can save that for another day.

Anyone else order some New Coke for it? Got mine. I was 7 the last time I had it.

Why, to pour it down the drain? There's a reason it failed miserably...

It beat both regular Coke and Pepsi in all taste tests. It failed not because of the taste, but because of the nostalgia people had for the original version of Coke.

I watched the entire trailer and still have no idea what it is about but it all seems to happen only at night or when the lights are out.

It looks like the second season of the German Dark is available as of yesterday. Do I need to get a subscription for a month and binge? From the few ratings, it appears so! Season 1 was fantastic!

Not one I've tried - perhaps I should add it to the list of "Herself doesn't want to watch*" programs and find some time ... 
* This includes:
"Star Trek Discovery": "Those aren't Klingons! Turn it off!"
"The Orville": "It's not funny and you said it would be! Turn it off!"
"Stranger Things": "I don;t understand what is happening. Turn it off!"
"Breaking Bad": "He's a drug dealer! Turn it off! No, wait ... just one more episode ... "

Another one for the list: Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell. It blew me away! (Figuratively, of course!  ) I believe it is also on Netflix, but haven't purchased a binge month yet.

Sorry for you. In many ways, The Orville was better than the sequels to the Shatner originals.

You don't stand a chance, then, as Dark is even more intriguing than Stranger Things. Dark always kept me guessing, even when I thought I'd figured it out, because it is understandable! But it isn't! Fantastic work by the writing team.

I've watched some. Great acting, and interesting story.
Good luck finding the time, or changing her mind!

I can watch them on my computer - and do - but it's not the same.
She did eventually (and with much protest) watch the whole of BB (but refuses to watch "Better call Saul" just in case she likes it, I suspect).

We seem to be getting a few articles for approval from people working for Technology Moon. They seem to be of very low quality and merely trying to advertise their business.

Yeah, a few have been killed in S&A.
If you spot one that isn't reported yet, post it and the author here: Spam and Abuse Watch Discussion Boards[^] and the community will deal with them.

SYNC24 - Dance of the Droids[^]
This song was recommended to me by @David-ONeil in the SOTW two weeks ago (thanks buddy).
Been listening to it a few times and now it's on repeat.
I love this genre, which is ambient, psychedelic and chill out, or "psybient" or "psychill"... What people come up with 
Anyway, those terms cover the sound pretty well, so that's awesome.
The video is pretty cool too.

I actually know this song from somewhere...
I think it's used in a Dutch commercial or something.
Or maybe I just heard it on the radio.
I'm usually not into rock music, but that's some pretty sweet guitar fiddling
