Push the second button down on the right 3 times

Or up down up down left right A, B works sometimes.

Just spam all the buttons as fast as possible. I usually can seem to softlock the display but the transaction old school display still works properly.

hahahaha enshittification working against itself ! the future really is poorly performing code sitting on top of antisocial designs. What a timeline

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

It's not really poorly performing code if I just kinda sorta break it

I’ll give it a shot next time!

They used to let you mute them. But everyone started doing it, so of course they disabled it. Sometimes you can get into the admin menu with the right combo of button presses. I don't recommend trying this, as most stations have multiple security cameras and your locale might have draconian laws about tampering.

wait, take a breath, do you think someone's going to get arrested for trying to turn off advertising?

I know America is ever-sliding into Dystopia but that just doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

The law doesn't have to make sense to be enforceable.

If you harm a poor person, you're generally OK. If you harm a wealthy person or corporation, you're fucked.
