Even includes a “Monday Half Price” girl. Though… do they even have ‘hooters’ on them..?

Local flooding caused us to set up a blog and album on the subject.

black friday whoa?

At school I saw this credit card machine on the pop machine, very interesting…….

I gotta have my BASH + transparency - even on Windows.

**UPDATE**

For those who don’t realize that the title is a joke and have nothing better to do then defame this tiny blog, I’ll lay this out for you:

I was in my local Jack in the Box, the TVs that normally show JiTB related advertisements instead showed two penguins, not unlike those seen on dual-core SMP kernel Linux boxes at boot. I failed to get a picture of it, but there were also other screens that said something to the effect of “Fedora booting…”

I’d guess to say that the company that seems to put the display system together, RippleTV uses GNU/Linux to power the feed to the TVs throughout the lobby to display JiTB’s advertisements.

Yes, this is not proof that Jack In The Box itself that runs on Linux or necessarily has anything to do with Linux in any way, and the same goes for the supposed display system provider RippleTV. I simply find it cool that you can find “hints” of Linux’s presence in such public locations as fast food joints.
I have some other blurry images I didn’t post originally due to the low quality, but I am posting links to high resolution highlighted versions for those who choose to take this too seriously and deny that these photos were in fact taken in the lobby of an official Jack In The Box restaurant.

On another note, yes this post was linked to on Metafilter by a friend of mine. I am not particularly familiar with Metafilter or its policies, but please tell me WTF is wrong with that. He thought it was cool and posted it. Does it look like I am grasping at internet fame? I’m using a stock template and have four posts on this blog that has been up for three weeks. I just wanted to post the cool stuff that I and my friends catch on camera. Thanks for raising my blood-pressure and have a nice day. BTW, IT’S A JOKE.

P.S. I changed to a different stock theme so that the text is more legible.

So my local Jack In The Box has been displaying it’s penguin pride lately. From the other screens I saw flashing by it seems that the TV system is driven by a dual-core Dell running Fedora. From the badge I’d venture to say that its all packaged by RippleTV, good idea taking advantage of open source.
