Self checkouts are the worst! Perfect example of bad engineering. I had the shower thought the other day that perhaps they design them to be slow and crappy so they can gather more biometric and video data of us at the checkout 🤔

Seriously though there is a whole branch of hardware engineering that specialises in making things intuitive and user friendly....even for the special needs (apple customers)

If you have a problem with working self checkouts that isn’t related to a scale calibration that’s on you, I’ve been using them without issue since I was a teenager which was two decades ago. They are stupidly intuitive

The scales are always off and unnecessary anyway. They factor shrinkage into the price.

most of the self checkouts i have used in the past 5 years or so have not even included the "scale" as part of the process. i do remember maybe once or twice that being an issue but it almost never happens any more. 10 years ago they were all "scale stupid" but it seems like that died off at least here in the eastern US
