I’ve been wondering over the years when being at #Airport check-ins how come these #PowerShell scripts can possibly ever work.

I know this because I’ve seen numerous times over the years crashed check-in machines. Latest one was late Spring when I visited #Ethprague at #Prague Airport.

I miss the “OS/2” and “Guru Meditation” times of my late 90s and early 00’s in vending machines etc. ;-)

Your local airport is actually airport.bat!

@jarkko tbh I love powershell and I am installing powershell core on my Linux and Mac machines. I like how it it batteries included and fairly portable. My scripts have zero dependencies, what I hardly can tell about my python scripts.

@janantos Yeah, still I'd expect more rigid implementation from vending machine tbh. I.e. not saying that PowerShell would be somehow worse than any other scripting language.
