A Whopper of a bork for seekers of pre-flight nosh A reminder today that the beloved Blue Screen of Death is sadly not forever as the irritating emoticon of Windows 10 puts in an appearance. The Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) has been a good friend over the years, alarming users by its appearance but occasionally dropping a hint with regard to what upset Windows so and what a …
I am Stephen, the submitter I love flying and when I do connect through these hubs do go on further.

This is usually how it goes with Wendy's and Burger King. Only McDonald's has its shit together to have the self-order kiosks functioning.
What's worse with Wendy's are the self-order kiosks are basically registers turned around, and they're at the order stalls, so you stand there in the way of people trying to queue up to order from the staff.

The even sadder part is the food quality is in inverse proportion to the service. Wendy's burgers are actually recognizable as meat and mostly edible.
