Please don’t say artisanal. That is a bullshit word. There is such a thing called speciality which is a technical term for coffee that is graded at 80-100 points. If you are using words like artisanal or gourmet, you are not knowable. Those in my opinion are bullshit words that make poor quality coffee sound fancy and super gross.
I only drink speciality.
Back in 2019 during the commodity crisis when the price was below a $1, they pretended to contribute lots of money to helping their farmers. The company publicly announced they were donating money to the farms they owned. That amount based on available financial data suggested that that money was equal to a single afternoon’s profits.
The point here is that Starbucks could have been contributing to the falling price of commodities, which they should have released more current financial data for. More transparency would have given a better idea if they were having a positive or negative impact. What this all boiled down to was simply saying what they paid their farms. If they did that, it would have been better.

Please don’t consume Starbucks. They have a reputation for buying from farms in Brazil and Guatemala that employe slave labor and child labor.
EDIT: Starbucks also abuses the Italian language. None of their drinks are what they claim to be. That mocha you had is too large to be a mocha.

Originally the script called do killing them but not addressing it. Scott didn’t want the character to die without some reflection on that. So it was changed to them surviving.

EDIT: I might be way off. The lowest priced boot they sell is $399.

hopesdead@startrek.websiteto TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Trekker McGavin4·4 days agoI totally forgot. Did they revert to protein synthesizers? I was referring to those which are explicitly said to use recycled waste.
I assume the synthesizers in season 1 and 2 are the same tech from ENT.
EDIT: Presumably TOS uses the same protein synthesizers too. I’m not certain how food is made in the 24th century considering in “The Spy Humongous” Tendi says the food was wasted reassembled protein. Prior to that moment, TNG only mentions having the molecular pattern is required for a food replicator.

They may have been racist too because I remember them complaining about the movie Black Panther and the comments edging very close to being about how the main cast was black.

EDIT: Just to be clear in case you are unaware, only people who are alive can qualify for an award.
Is it? Be real. Did you really think this would be decent?
No
