@stux It's literally a corner case.

@stux ouch

@stux
What an amateur move to reach for the shutdown functionality... 😎

@stux 😑

@stux :blobcatscared:

@stux
Why not start some Pr0n via Chrome?
Or just open the online order system of the competitor. 😂

@stux oh that is just wonderful

@stux shoot, if anything this greatly *improves* functionality! Now customers can conveniently place *all* their orders from the same location!

/s

@stux Do they expose the USB port or wireless? Imagine being able to play Xbox Gamepass while eating out 😂

@stux Should of deleted explorer.exe.=

@stux XD

@stux omg

@stux We do a little trolling

@stux No! That reminds me the cheating in older cabinets arcade games with sequence of inputs via buttons and joystick, but that is a big mistake.

@stux Alternativ könnte man auch einfach explorer.exe aus dem Autostart raus nehmen...

@stux Sometimes the only way to convince management is to make it to an extreme.
So, imagine being a developer forced to deploy it and the same day going to the field and opening some porn.

@stux “Run as administrator” 😁😁😁

@stux If they got it right the first time, nobody would pay for version 2.0.

@stux *laughs in QA*

@stux
Mgmt.: "Why is our ordering panel shut off?"

Developers: "You."

@stux reminds me of when the app I was using on on of these crashed to desktop and didn’t restart, so of course I dug in the start menu and started Minecraft

@stux I personally take great pride in finding ways to break out of kiosk UI and reach Windows or start cmd.exe on any of those public UI things.

@stux 🤦‍♂️

@stux@mstdn.social Now he has resolved the bug or?

@stux I'm pretty sure Windows has a kiosk mode built in what the fuck

⬆️ Video description: A touch screen for ordering food. By swiping up the user is able to access the start menu and shut it down

@stux The fact that they were running windows in the first place is hilarious lol. Would have never happened if it was headless.

@stux this looks like an mc Donald’s terminal (physically)

Is it?

@stux I had a coffee vending machine at University running Windows 10. It unironically has an unencrypted .txt file with all the prices. Changed it to zero : Free coffee for everyone ☕ !

I did try with negative values : Overflow, tea was pricey 🍵.

@stux I worked on London Underground's touch screen ticket machines in the 1990s. We made damn sure only our app could use the touchscreen, and the OS thought it was just a serial port.

@stux
сс @frssoft

@stux in the store I visited last year there was a notification about a not registered win version 😃

@stux This is the only reasonable way to deal with self checkout kiosks. Shut down that anti worker bs.

@stux hahahahaha. Guessing that kiosk spends most of its time mining bitcoin now.

@stux Romanian kids will not let this go unexploited.

@stux manager has been burned too many times by devs suggesting "let's just add this one thing" and the project continuesly getting delayed as a result as they eff around...

@stux @masklayer I want someone to make an edit with the Jojo "to be continued" thing lol

@stux which joint is this?

@stux testing, that's for cowards, push to production.

@stux nah, it's a feature for saving some power

@stux LOL. Killing explorer.exe could do the job but a lot of times corner swipe needs to be disabled as well

@stux
Isn't it already in kiosk mode?

Just poorly implemented.

@stux Door dezelfde truc kon ik ooit bij de instellingen komen van de KPN-internetzuil op Schiphol.

@stux is this a @kevlin ?

@stux Once, while in the Game, we pressed Ctrl+Alt+F1 on the display keyboards, and learnt that they where connected to a Raspberry pi, along with the monitors.

My friends then did SysRq+REISUB, to force it to reboot.

@stux hilarious that embedded systems like ordering kiosks are shipping with windows 10 rather than a a more tightly integrated Linux solution. So much more resource usage, update nonsense, and security holes w/windows on a single-use device.

@stux bruh I'd just open the internet browser and make it display a random image that makes no sense

@stux @chase I would have went straight to the command line and do a trace route and ping a few things

@stux Oooh, my trips usually mean eating a lot of fast food - so I'll have to give this a try :)
