Verify your age to drink the SystemD drink
Mord important question: Why do they all have their own system?
Hol up though…
Is that the Arch flavor or the Fedora flavor? I think that’s important information to have on hand.
All we know is the screen isn’t using HDMI 2.1.
Is there anything those damn media companies won’t screw up? Even my frozen Mt Dew, man.
That’s not bootloader. Init?

Get some grub
I’ll (kernel) panic
It’s all calories, no flavor.
Get me some kernel panic pancakes.
I drink Arch btw

The complexity of modern stuff boggles my mind. Why?
I guess it could make sense to have a small computer in a Slurpee machine to check the temperature and the consistency of the ice, maybe do some maintenance, but yeah. Paper tags would make a lot more sense.
I can see having a single node in the whole machine, but one per mix makes me think this photo is doctored. Then again an esp32 is pretty damn cheap.
Very odd, I’d have thought it’s a single system too, surely there’s a lot of shared signals, like temperature, cleaning and whatnot.
The only reason for those to be individual with another ‘parent’ system is that it would be fully modular?I’d be interested in the actual answer/reason…
Just read through the installation and operations manual, and it looks like you’re right on the modular part. They offer 2, 3, and 4 dispenser models, along with a 1 and 2 dispenser “Multi-Flavor”. From what I can tell they have some other modules in the machine that control different things, as well as a parent module to tie them all together. The machine also tracks how often each dispenser is used, so the owner can know which flavors are popular and overall how profitable the machine is.
The machine has to manage electricity to solenoids, motors, sensors of all sorts, etc, as well as CO2, N2, compressed air, refrigerant, water, and syrup. A lot more complex than I ever thought while getting a slushy.
Be able to change the picture remotely. New flavor? No need to print out a new sticker, remove the old one, and add the new one.
