Anyone got tips for muting those? I always touch all four corners. Periodically, you find one that shuts the fuck up.
If the pump has 8 buttons around the screen, 99% of the time it's the second button down on the right side.
This is the type of tips I'm looking for. Thank you!
I have been hearing this for years and it has never worked. One day I will find one that shuts the eff up!!
Past year I have yet to find one near me that responds anymore. My favorite are the stations that have them really loud and there's always a bit of an offset so you get this diffuse echoy aural ad experience for the most godawful products.
Oh yeah dystopian city. Especially at odd times of the day.
