It’s time to start a new #BrokenPublicComputers hashtag.

Windows is low on memory at Heathrow airport…

    Cool, when my wife was in hospital last week, I went to their cafeteria wanting to order some lunch. Their menu boards all in a Windows blue screen of death! They were still running Win7! 😁

      @GoatsLive@mastodon.social I wish I was shocked but I’m not at all. 😆

        Not really a but I was amused to see that at least some (maybe most) of the VBB train ticket machines in Berlin run on Windows that hasn’t been activated.

          It’s time for another ! 🎉

          Here’s a screen at Starbucks with a double whammy of Windows that isn’t activated and a crashed application.

          This is a pretty sad hobby but I’m enjoying myself and so I will continue.

          Two Starbucks vertical screens, the left one says “Pumpkin is so back”. The right has a sideways error dialogue about an app that has crashed and a small watermark in the corner in German saying Windows isn’t activated.

              @foobarry@mastodon.social Oh wow is that Windows 10 with old skool Edge before it was Chrome based!? That must have not been updated in a while.

                      Today we are at Marwell Zoo and we have a having a problem with libsvg on an ARM64 processor. I wonder if it’s a Raspberry Pi…
