Though some people like automation, it drives me nuts. It slows the line unless they have training sessions, it offers too many choices, and then you have to fight with the machine to pay. Self checkouts are fine but only if you used to work retail and you're quick in the line.

A human can work a checkout far faster and more efficiently. At the place I used to work, we tried doing an automated kiosk system at a Wendy's in McCarran in Las Vegas. It failed miserably. The software was good and the layout was efficient. It was just that everyone hated it. I'll never visit any restaurant that wants me to be the cashier unless they pay me for it. At $15/hour. Must be paid in the form of a check.

A couple of the McD's I went to had an 'express lane' with one person with an iPad taking peoples orders and another person on a till that you pay and then another person brings up your order after about another minute or so, how common is this?

This explains a lot. I read a Greg Land X-Men comic a few years ago and noticed the characters had a weird set of facial expressions, like everybody in one frame would all have the same hollywood smile happy face, and in the next they'd all have the same "angry" face. As you say, the expressions didn't quite seem to make sense for the dialog/action going on.

lol this guy is the very definition of hack fraud

Is this from the Onion or something similar?

Cause i started squinting at it to parse if this is really real life.

For context, journalism in Britain is in a terrible state.

Highlander 2 is a trainwreck totally worth watching if just for the bit where Sean Connery magically gets better from being dead only to sacrifice himself for no good reason twenty minutes later to the tune of Amazing Grace blaring so loud on the bagpipes you can't actually make out any of the dialogue.

What?

Wasn't there a goon who starved their kids so they could buy star wars toys or something?

If its the goon I'm thinking of it wasn't toys, it was a some $3000+ gaming rig, and child services took their kids away.
However they cleaned up their act and had the kids returned to them.

Fun fact: this isn't out until next year and there's already talk about how it'll be another shared movie universe along with Hitman, Deus Ex, Just Cause and Thief.

Talk from the studio? At least let the movie stand on it's own merits or not, jeez.
