What are we becoming, getting cofee deliverd by drone.
- thatguy0900 5y agoWell, it's better than driving to the coffee place and back, I guess.
- eertami 5y agoI just don't understand how it makes sense to get coffee delivered by drone (or by driving to pick up) every day instead of just buying an espresso machine.
- dewey 5y agoMaybe it's coffee beans instead of an actual cup of coffee in this case?
- eertami 5y agoI expect you would get beans delivered maybe once or twice per month though, not daily.
- kragen 5y agoOne espresso machine can make coffee for 30 people an hour; complemented by six drones, it can provide coffee for 60 people. That's a lot more capital-efficient than buying 60 espresso machines; the other 57 espresso machines' worth of capital can get invested in something that improves people's lives instead of useless stranded coffee production capacity. It's probably a lot less labor-efficient, though, because it means tying up some poor schmuck's life making coffee for other people instead of learning topology or writing poetry or something.
- dzhiurgis 5y agoWe just need to invent flying espresso machine
- mhh__ 5y agoHow much is a good espresso machine and also consider that any machine is potentially a bit of a faff if you rent and then move etc. Etc. I have got a coffee delivered before but I usually only do it if I'm working and I can't spare the distraction-risk of walking to a store.

- quickthrower2 5y agoIt’s hard to make an espresso as good at home. It’s basically an in depth hobby not a convenience appliance.
- hef19898 5y agoAny Mokkaexpress will beat 5+ minute old Espresso by far.
- quickthrower2 5y agoThat might be true I’ve never had one delivered by drone so I can’t say!
- chrisco255 5y agoOnly costs you quiet enjoyment of the skies.
- quickthrower2 5y agoSeriously one benefit of covid had been hardly any noise on the flight path I live on. If you have 24/7 drone deliveries it would drive me crazy. Probably have to set up some surface to air defence against it.
