That tree looks like the stranger on the street who offers to babysit your daughters for free.

And you say “okay… come on over” and make sure that stranger is never seen again.

I’m guessing it’s for more efficient cleaning. Bummer.

That doesn’t mean it has to be eye searing white, imagine if they went with gray granite-like surfaces instead, that would be so much mre pleasant.

They don’t want you to spend time in the restaurant. Less and less McDonalds PlayCenters are surviving. The seats in the restaurant purposely get uncomfortable after 20 minutes of sitting. Harsh lighting. Drab surfaces. They want you to get your food and go. Even better if you use the drive thru or mobile app. Any modern fast food restaurant like McDonald’s, but especially Starbucks, does not want to be your “third place”.

In other words, you can’t.

Fuck it, I love playing devil’s advocate.

  1. Seamless integration between their products (at the cost of having to be in their walled garden)
  2. Best, smoothest mobile UX out there (and I’ve used many Androids, including custom ROMs)
  3. Moving their computers from from x86 to ARM (much better power consumption to performance ratio). This will likely improve Linux ARM support too, as people use Asahi on Apple Silicon Macs and more packages are then created for ARM.
  4. Taking active part in creating industry standards (such as USB-C, which they admittedly should’ve adopted on their phones long ago, but they DID promise not to change plugs for 10 years when moving to Lightning).
  5. Macbooks don’t bend like a lot of plastic non-Apple laptops do. Their batteries also seem to last longer - might be anecdotal, but I’ve fixed thousands of laptops, easily over a thousand Macbooks produced in the 2010-2017 era (I quit that job in 2019).

You didn’t grow up in the 70s or 80s, did you? That was what half the shows we watched looked like.

And by design.

Seems to me like there’s a pretty wide variety of McDonald’s interiors.

You say that but dear god, that tree has seen some shit

undergroundoverground ,

No, it doesn’t look like a prison. It looks more like a school or a factory.

…wait a minute.

They do that partially to encourage people not to sit down and eat inside for a long time. They want you in, buying their trash, and GTFO quickly after. They make the seats intentionally uncomfortable so you don’t stay for long.

FlyingSquid OP ,

It also discourages “them” from sitting there with their dirty unwashed clothes and body when they dared to only buy one thing with the money they were able to panhandle.

Wouldn’t want to let such people have a warm place to sit that wasn’t the public library, now would we? By the way, when do we close down the public library?

This is mostly because they don’t want you eating inside. Maintaining a dining room takes extra staff and other expenses.
