Hey, the thoughts I have while I’m showering do not account for the dystopic problems that’ll likely prevent their implementation. My shower is a happy place.
PSA: At every Exxon Mobil I’ve been to, when the screen on the pump starts vomiting up ads as you’re pumping your gas, if you tap the 2nd button from the top on the right side of the screen, it mutes it.
There are some around here where you can hit all 8 buttons or whatever is there, and NOTHING will mute! Then I just hide back in my car and hide from the hell that is advertising. Most of the time they will mute. What an awful idea to push on people.
the screen will be large. Mostly because it was a good idea by some well-meaning soul. The problem is there was a soulless corpo bureaucrat that inserted themselves into the implementation process.
We live in a corporate hellhole so you’ll get a screen just big enough to play obnoxious ads instead.

Sorry to take a pee in your shower, that was rude of me
You’re only allowed to pee in the shower while you’re in the shower. Common courtesy says you need to sneak into the shower behind OP first.

Enjoy your peaceful gas station visit.
I bought an EV two months ago because I didn’t know this one trick
This is already done on gaz pumps here. It’s fucking terrible how everything is trying to sell you more shit
The lower right buttons on those screens usually mute if they have audio. In case anyone didn’t know that.
Is there a button to turn the screen off?
Yes, it is behind the screen and you have to activate it with a hammer.

One up from the lower right where I live
Maria Menounos has become a little demon inside my skull making me think about her every time I think about deisel.

BTW, you can hit one of the buttons to mute the audio.
Only on some of them. Some service stations have disabled this mute function.
And some, I’ve noticed, actually started labeling the mute button. I couldn’t believe it!
(Its usually the third button down, on the right, labeled or not.)
assuming the charger works… which I’ve heard a certain charger company seems to have trouble keeping their shit functional.
