I think it's AI-mangled. I found this older version over on Reddit, posted there on August 2nd.
Notice that that version looks less shopped around the systemd output, has more detail in the metal pieces and in the shadows around the cardboard, and still has an electrical outlet in the back.
AI mangled or just compressed multiple times as its been shared around? Probably a download of a compressed version a few times before ending up with this text? It looks lower resolution and cropped rather than substantially changed to me.
I don't think it's just normal edit-compress-cycles.
The cropping theory doesn't align with the cardboard piece
The second flavour from the right has lost the term "Freeze" from its name somehow
The way the metal ring on the refill plug has merged with the vertical metal piece on the outlet just screams of a typical AI-not-understanding-functional-parts error to me.
Spoken like someone that is not a Dev Operative 🤓. Does your gel idea compensate for humidity 🤓? Or optimize for profit🤓? How then I ask, can it be called a sugary drink dispenser? ... 🤓
Why ? I keet hearing "systemd bad" for years now. But I never saw any convincing arguments. Not saying that rejecting systemd is wrong but why would I ? I have been using Linux since 2004 to give you an idea of where am coming from.
Is the QR code Kernel panic enable by default? I think it's a fairly new thing, I've not seen it yet. Didn't have to deal with kernel panic in a long while, not complaining about that.
I thought the QR code contains the log, and it's why it's such a large one. Is it really uploaded online ?
Edit: to me it looks like the QR code contains the debug info and it can be configured to point to a bug submission webpage of your choice, but it doesn't automatically upload the debug info online: Linux 6.13 DRM Panic QR Code | Phoenix.com
I assume that's what they meant. Not that it's automatically uploaded, and the QR code takes you there. The QR code takes you to a page where you can upload it.
Oh my god thank you. I saw this exact image on another site, except the text said "I found the BIOS flavor." I was like "wtf this person has no idea what BIOS is" and proceeded to explain what it really was.
Oddly, the one on the right at my 7-Eleven dies as well.
The current state of things, you can get four single board computers cheaper than one single board with four display drivers. They might even be individual touch screens.
Single board computers that can handle one screen are pretty cheap these days. Ones that can handle multiple screens would be more custom, thus expensive.

The lines of the wall behind also look different, and there's some edges around part of the screen in the post that aren't there in the original.
Ghoelian@piefed.social · 3 pts · 323d
Also, the carton behind looks to be in a slightly different place.
Ghoelian@piefed.social · 5 pts · 323d
Also, the 7-eleven logo on the working display has disappeared.
Kazumara@discuss.tchncs.de · 6 pts · 323d
Not just the logo, look again, I missed it too at first, an entire word is gone from the name :D
Ghoelian@piefed.social · 4 pts · 323d
On top of that the whole dispenser part is just entirely different except shape and colour.
dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 322d
Maybe an AI-upscaled version of a reposted low-res (and on the way to being deep-fried) jpeg?
Lojcs@piefed.social · 6 pts · 322d
I'm so bewildered by this. It's like a photographic Mandela effect.
@memesmadetorunonlinux@techhub.social where did you find this version?
victorz@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 322d
Wow yeah, the bolts are also round rather than hexagonal. And it has that weird AI contrast all over it.
not_IO@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 322d
also the mtn dew sign looks so uncanny and shiny
NochMehrG@feddit.org · 11 pts · 323d
I was wondering.. Each „screen“ a system?
deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz · 1 pts · 323d
That's what I thought at first, then, that one is probably accidentally mapped to console rather than the flavour display.
aBundleOfFerrets@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 323d
Certainly
Whostosay@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 323d
Doubtful, someone definitely Gimped it though

😄 Sure, I meant shopped as in a verb meaning digitally altered.

Why having an overcomplicated system like this instead of some printed gels for the brands that cost $1 and can be swapped out easily is beyond me.

My guess is its probably easier to maintain and update a web app than an embedded system.

Yup. It's on by default on newer kenels.
