      We're assuming a business location here.
      This is the maximum it should cost pretty much anywhere in the world.
      So, trivial compared with just one day of business expenses.
      Functionally free

        Wait are you just using wifi while paying 100/mo for internet?

        1200/year isnt insubstantial.

        It's a business location and they could be anywhere, this is enough to buy unlimited internet basically everywhere there is unlimited internet to buy.
        Compared with daily business expenses this is basically free for them.

          Why would they need wifi when our phones have 5G /hotspots? This whole conversation is just silly 😅

            and they just swipe around to see stuff that are 95% useless information. It’s nothing but addiction.

              For the people with no service and exploitative ratioed service.

              I don't need wifi I have 100 gig of fast data and "unlimited" after that which I never use.

              But my brother has 3 gb and then he loses internet access. You do it for him, it's common courtesy if you're operating a business which you expect people to hang out at. They are the content that attract your drink-buyers.

                50 a month at MetroPCS, it's not rocket science, and I'm not rich. I literally live on the streets.

                    Maybe drink too much, assault a woman and call the bartender the f slur. Feeling cute.

                      There’s a place near me that I don’t go to very often, and almost never if I’m alone. They have great food and it’s pretty cheap, but they don’t have WiFi.

                      That normally wouldn’t be a problem, because I rarely use any of my cell data, but it’s a super old building full of interference and I can only get cell signal if I happen to get one of the 3 seats within 10 foot of the front windows.

                      If I do go by myself, I get weird looks for bringing comic books or video games and just existing by myself, but there’s nothing else to do while waiting for food so..

                          McDonald's STILL has newspapers sitting in a rack next to the counter where I am. Growing up these places had magazines and newspapers available to read. People "back then" didn't just randomly talk to strangers, they just kept themselves busy with other things.

                          Yes, there's a problem with people not interacting physically anymore, but it's not cause we have electronics, it's cause people don't have a place to go outside the home anymore. This is a problem with a lack of community centers and walk-able neighborhoods, not a problem with phones.

                                When my family goes out we usually have to put our phones away. It was my rule, but now I break my own rules and my kids have to tell me to put my phone away. I guess my kids are better than me now.

                                  Your welcome! Enjoy your styrofoam cup coffee from a deli that smells of Malboro cigarettes. The sugar has weird moving black things and milk has been left out for 3 days.

                                    I never understood why Starbucks became big in the US, but I always assumed it was something like that.

                                    It’s actually because they started offering syrup filled, whip cream and caramel covered drinks directly on the menu. They were briefly infamous for like 1000 calorie macchiatos.

                                    Little espresso shops had flavor shots before, but the rest were pretty much donut shops that sold regular utility coffee, and the sugar and fat was external (donuts sandwiches and pastries).
