The tech still blows. We know how checkouts work! Not like this!
Nevermind the models designed for morons, by aliens, like CVS's freestanding e-waste. If you don't obey the robot like your life depends on it then it just does not work. And then the cash slot is on the underside, conveniently located at knee height, except for the machines that secretly lack that functionality. That's right: you can jump through all the hoops and be told, fuck off, your money's no good here, meatbag; feed me plastic.
