This new annual thread has been carved out of the previous thread in an effort to reduce the number of megathreads on the AC forum. For those interested previous versions are the original 2004 - 2014 thread , 2015 edition, 2016 edition , 2017 edition and 2018 edition.
The original thread started by accident but quickly became a popular place to come and discuss off topic things such as hockey, new movies, or almost anything that wouldn't fit into existing AC forum threads. Air Canada or Aeroplan topics such as flight feedback, in-flight services issues, status or mileage earning/redemption are all topics that should go into existing AC forum threads so others can benefit from this information. Topics about hotels or airlines and/or their loyalty programs, destinations, in-flight travel tech. or anything best discussed elsewhere on FT may be relocated to that forum as this thread isn't meant to import travel topics to this forum that are better discussed on other forums. FT is an amazingly diverse and large community so members are encouraged to seek out all of its resources.
While the conversation is more relaxed as it would be in a lounge that doesn't mean however that the FT rules don't apply here as they definitely do so please refrain from controversial topics such as politics or religion, avoid profanities and treat other lounge patrons with the same respect you expect.

Either way I sent in my feedback. I only used Lyft like today when it’s $6 a ride off, otherwise find Uber cheaper and more reliable.

Good win even though Gasol and Green did not score much at all.

I'm watching a robot make my burger. The future is here.

Creator in SF.
It was messier than a human-made burger.
It was slower.
And while it was fine, it wasn't "good" compared to many of the other burger places nearby.
It also wasn't cheaper.
But aside from the taste, time and technological advancements should be able to improve it all.

Wow!
I'm glad that's never happened in my back alley.

Dunno, that makes it look very unappealing. Mechanically reproduced hamburger anyone?
Now if they made fries using some weird cross between a deep fryer and a Gatling gun - sign me up!
