  1. Halloween trick-or-treating - a drive-through neighbourhood:

    Spoiler: Driving and idling (fossil fuel combustion), plastic decoration, sugar 'treats' and traps for native wildlife.

    Haunted by the spectre of climate disruption and the prospect of an uninhabitable biosphere they drive to event spaces turning neighbourhoods into drive-through (commercial) amusement parks for Halloween and Christmas.

    * "People drive from miles and miles to participate in destination neighborhood festivities. The same kind of dynamic has long happened with Christmas.Halloween has gone from a primarily walking holiday to a driving holiday."

    * "Research suggests about 30 percent of birds' nests may include human-made materials, posing a risk to nestlings. Halloween in Australia coincides with bird nesting season and birds are often looking for nesting material at this time of year, so there is the potential for these types of decorations to have a bigger impact here than in North America and Europe." >>

  6. Gizmodo: Taco Bell Says ‘No Más’ to AI Drive-Thru Experiment. “Last year, Taco Bell made a simple bet that Alexa-like voice assistants could handle the drive-thru window. It didn’t consider whether people could handle dealing with AI. According to the Wall Street Journal, the company embedded AI in the drive-thru boxes at more than 500 locations across the country and quickly found that […]

  10. plat gf is really doing the godess's work getting these #retail jobs and quitting the instant they're unreasonable. Businesses'll learn to stop being a-holes if they can't keep staff in their store
    She put #cashier and #driveThrough on her application and they had her washing dishes, cooking, and cleaning first in training and weren't flexible when she said she wouldn't stand over a hot stove for an extended period of time and she didn't apply for #lineCook. So she #quit :aqua_dab: #pgf

  11. got myself a little treat because it's christmas in july! i absolutely love the sun county and since someone described this title as a labour of love ... this is a must-have for me.

  13. Why aren’t there #drivethrough #pizza places? How come there are thousands of #friedChicken #driveThru places, that are open for #breakfast no less, and not a single place I can drive up for #pizzaByTheSlice??? :blobcatwhat:

  14. I am VERY grateful for the much-mocked-and maligned McDonalds/hot coffee lawsuit today! Stopped at the drive-thru to get my wife for a quick cup of coffee. Lid wasn't on properly, and as I was passing it to her, the lid popped off and the cup squashed in my hand, soaking my thigh. It hurt for some time and I wasn't happy, but no real damage done thanks to the temperature reduction after McDs lost in court. I don't even DRINK coffee!
