Damn, that's the dedication - triggering whole complex operation where multiple people and systems are engaged and consume energy just to get slightly different kind of rice.

I'm just thinking of the overhead. That is how much it cost to get that packet of rice in 10 minutes... With all the people involved in whole processs.

A completely different kind of rice. I love regular white rice, but find disgusting the texture and flavor of brown rice.

That’s nothing. Think about the immense scale of operation required just to let you instantly comment on someone relating that story. We have massive ships that roam the seas to keep your connectivity alive.
