minus-squareCosmic Cleric@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-211 months ago As someone from the west coast of The States, I can’t say I’ve ever seen a hot drink vending machine in real life. At least not here where I live. We used to have them, but I haven’t seen them for over a decade now. If you remember the Terminator 2 movie, the scene where a security guard gets a cup of coffee, those are the kind of dispensers that used to exist. (The link above shows the scene I’m speaking of. I tried to embed the URL into this comment so the picture itself would display, but I couldn’t figure it out.)
