Danwichmann Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 McDonald's in China seem to be phasing out the touch screen order terminals and forcing you to order via the app. Except the app in Chinese only, doesn't load properly and last time I managed to order in it, the order was placed in a different restaurant to the one I was in. The machines were so wonderfully simple, the app is worse than my normal point and smile method of ordering food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We opened a new systems Lab a fair few years ago, also named "ISIS". After all the frightful unpleasantness, I suggested it be renamed "Al Qaeda" to avoid reputational damage, but for some reason they rejected my proposal as frivolous. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Looking for a new cordless vacuum, ours about give up. New Dyson £700 Surely people who can afford £700 for a vacuum cleaner, actually don't use it and have a cleaner. Such a rip off, I wouldn't mind but probably only costs £20 to knock together in that Indian sweat shop Dyson moved too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) They've got loads cheaper than that, tbf, do you need the absolute top of the line one? I'm still happy with our fair entry level Miele, cost a couple of hundred quid more than powerful enough, and practically indestructible. Do have to mind the cord, but I'm not paying a few hundred quid for that Edited December 31, 2022 by Davkaus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Within 2 years ours wouldn't work for longer than a minute between charges Seriously a plug in vacuum will last you much much longer We replaced ours with a plug in Shark model 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about cordless but @Rugeley Villahas always talked very positvely about a Henry vacuum cleaner... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
