Mayor Eric Adams instructed the press to write, “Eric, job well done,” and then tried to make a hand-heart with the robot, which has no arms.

          They’re the worst. The Walgreens near me has them and if they’re not completely broken, the data on the front of them is entirely wrong. You have to stand there with the door open, wasting electricity, just to figure out which drink you want.

        This sounds even more frustrating than digital menu boards that instead of just being digital to be able to update easily rotate screens quickly where you have to wait through multiple cycles to read it.

      I think the glass doors on the refrigerated coolers that were electronic displays that showed you an ideal image of the drink or whatever was supposed to be inside, but you couldn’t see through them to see if there were any actually on the shelf.
