You guys suck at leaving meaningful comments.
And I’d like to know why they had an ATM running an unactivated copy of windows, nevermind windows at all.
Since theres Cyrilic on it, its in Russia or any other country, that uses cyrilic alphabet. Please, dont skip your geography lessons, you only proove that americans know nothing about the rest of the world.
Yeah well except, that I just pointed out, that not every ATM is running on Windows regardless if it’s from Russia, Timbuktu or the States.
Since I am from Germany I can tell what OS they’re running on.. duh!
Why should we have to learn about the rest of the world when we’re already in the best place in the world? Everyone else learns English, because they need to to be able to keep up with us.
Hmm yeah English the language from England. Perhaps maybe England is the best place in the world. Cause you know, everyone has to learn the language from there.
Hmm yeah, except more people emigrate from England to the US than the other way around. So, jingoism aside, people have voted with their feet. And they’ve chosen USA.

Liberty WIN.
Congratulations on being so ignorant, Kittens! If you want to experience the “opposite” of freedom, just spend some time in Cuba, and try speaking out against the government. Then you’ll truly learn what the “opposite” of freedom is.
The theory:
Constitutionally, the government in Cuba is elected by the people, therefore, since people elect the government they do not have the right to complain about it.
Here’s what really happens:
Constitutionally speaking, the only allowable party in Cuba is the Communist Party. This party selects whoever runs for government offices and places those people in the ballot. The party chooses though whoever is convenient to their interest (kinda of like Democrats and Republicans work on the US, but on a monopartidistic way). The people then vote for two people that represent the interests of the Communist Party and thus they go into office. Needless to mention that it is the Communist Party who runs the Electoral Colleges over there, thus they can afford to make any counting mistakes they want without others knowing or complaining. And given that the Cuban Constitution says you elect the government (as in vote for the representatives), it is implied you don’t get to complain about their actions. So, you are screwed.
unless your family is first nations, in which case english wouldn’t be
your native language, your family immigrated too.
and by immigrated i mean small pox anyone?
The Fujitsu- Siemens machines i installed ran on windows while
the old Siemens- Nixdorf ran OS/2. AFAIR a pretty old IBM monster ran OS/2 too.
An interesting time of my life that was. Taught me a bit about ATM and safes and the like!
Some of the old machines we uninstalled contained several ounces of
pulverized money, ground by the note transport system.
Origin: precious, value: zero.
Get over yourself Peter. Every comment here is a meaningless comment. This is a blog with humorous pictures on it, not a forum for groundbreaking ideas on how to solve the world’s problems.
No! We are here to solve every problem in the world right here and now! In fact, I Al Gore, I mean, Peter, just heard about someone littering, and I must now go address that on the comment page on a blog about cats wearing sweaters!
also, why the fuck did you use an accent as a quotation mark? seriously? It takes so much more work to make a ´ than it does to just press the friggin ‘ key.
And don’t get me started on people that use the backtick (`) as apostrophes…
Yeah, and a pretty bad copyright fail at that, but maybe one out of a thousand people is going to push a copyright claim, and a little mea culpa usually fixes that.
NoScript or AdBlock+ will prevent you from seeing all of the ads which are the reason for seeing this site’s watermarks all over other people’s pictures.
I dunno if it is a MAC win. If it were, Steve Jobs would be there selling smaller and smaller versions of the same ATM. (but at least they would work).
Lol. Macs fail even worse than that sometimes, and you can’t fix it by clicking a button.
(By fail, I mean “epic hardware failure that renders the computer completely inoperable, and then another such failure with the same computer, and then another such failure.. With the same computer”. Such as the fails I experienced last year.)
Yup, linux, barely a 20% market share in industrial servers, and just passed Windows 98 with a 1.2% market share on PCs. Go tell me how both ATMs on linux are working.
First
ARGH!
das ist in test
haha ur second
First to DIE! >:(
Enough with the useless attempts at proving you can sometimes count correctly, people, seriously.
You know that the more you react, the more they will do that, right? Therefore, you fail because you are only perpetuating the problem.
woo hoo. big words. now i’m scared.
not really. i would expect sombody of the tenth grade to understand “perpetuate”.
possibly american school system fail?
Loser. HEY admin… ban these people. your blog is getting wasted…
relevance FAIL
yea AB ur first at failing
i know it’s been said before, but…
Your girlfriend wishes she could say that more often
She can say it any time, she’s clearly imaginary.

Oh yeah! Gee, I really understand the picture now. Cheers.

stop stateing your name after you post is really fuuucking stupid
Fourth!

You have won one (1) internet.
Yes. Much like signing a letter is “really fuuucking stupid”. After all, you put your name right on the envelope, don’t you?
That´s really bad..

Most ATMs run on winblows.
The ATM’s in Germany are running on OS/2. It’s like 423498 years old and still better than Windows…!
Since theres Cyrilic on it, its in Russia or any other country, that uses cyrilic alphabet. Please, dont skip your geography lessons, you only proove that americans know nothing about the rest of the world.

Uhm…. USA is more like the opposite of freedom… Open your eyes.
Unless you are a christian white male…then you are pretty free to do whatever you want.
Good thing I fit that description. Oh, and can you remind me who was in the Democratic primary to be nominated for president?

Being freer that Cuba isn’t exactly something to aspire to. Why can’t we be freer than the Netherlands?
sadly its kinda going the other way here,
unless your family is first nations, in which case english wouldn’t be
your native language, your family immigrated too.
and by immigrated i mean small pox anyone?
Hey, now! I lived in Russia for a little while. I know Cyrillic.
That was probably one of the FAIL ATMs I used.
In English, it says “VTB.”

So why not use one of the major commercial operating systems developed in Germany? Oh wait….
Like every country on earth should have it’s own OS. Makes perfectly sense to me.
Most ATMs in Germany are made by german company – wincor nixdorf and believe me, theyre all runnin Windows.
don’t all ATM’s run on windows?
i know all the dutch ones do….
i frequently see them reboot after an error….
Gotta love computers…..
I highly doubt it and seriously hope not.
However, there is no reason for a Windows machine to ever crash or reboot if you are only running a single stable application.

On the American standard keyboard, yes. That would take more effort. But not everyone uses said American standard.
Plus, most people won’t understand what you’re on about, and don’t really care.
I think this photo was taken in Georgia or Armenia.
Major fail, love it…
it’s Russia.
http://www.vtb.ru/rus/web.html?l=2
It’s Russia
Yeah, and here’s the bank’s website:
http://www.vtb.ru
It’s Russia
I think it’s Canada
im leaving a comment coz im bored i dont think its very funny
rofl XD
I reckon it has to with terminal services, so what we see on ATMs are thin clients?!
8D
Fail at caring about meaningful comments
:P:D:P:D:P
Comment fail, void WIN
Mother Russia! yarr!
When I put my credit card in a ATM once to withdraw some cash, the ATM said in a Windows error box “Out of System Resources”.
I lol’ed.
Is the Windows for “Out of cash?”
WTB (or ВТБ in Russian) is the biggest state owned bank in Russia.
das ist ein Test
German fail.
Wozu machst du hier ein Test, Nutz Wordpad für so ein Scheiß!
nein, das ist ein dummkopf
Even though I enjoy this blog greatly, why does Failblog put it’s name at the bottom of pictures that don’t belong to it. Isn’t that a copyright fail?

This bank is fully in shit!
the bank of fail..
Whooo, Russia again!
Windows Genuine Advantage Fail
l0l fukin russia!! ATM WIN!!1
That’s what happens when they just won’t use Linux.
This is the point!
what does first even mean
russian cost cutting at its best
…what you got a costcutter at your uni?
no. we lap it up.
“In Russia, ATM’s withdraw money from you!”
\Can’t belive nobody has said it yet.
Another thing.
IF this is in russia, how come the windows error block isn’t in russian? It is in english.
ВТБ at logo – russian word, stupid.
Bubba didn’t ask about the sign, he asked about the error block. Reading comprehension fail!
Non-english versions of windows do not have the same directory structure, which can cause problems in some programs.
bullshit.
Simple — they downloaded a ‘cracked’ copy of Windows… Most are English!
Me neither congrats. And that’s one of the funnier “In Russia…” lines ever.
Thank you.
Yeah, I was surprised to, but shouldn’t the line be “In SOVIET Russia…” or am I just fail?
He orginally used just “In Russia…” back in the 80’s but once the USSR fell, he changed it to “In Soviet Russia…” So to me it’s either or.
he changed it to avoid insulting the current Russia. so, it actually is important.
True, but like I said to me it is either/or.
my entire family was killed by a soviet atm. thanks for bringing that up. jerk!
Well, you shouldn’t oppose the ATM!
I for one, welcome our new ATM overlords!
Is this a Simpsons reference?
“we’re sorry but bill gates has decided he wants this money too. please move along”
win!
we fail you
windows fail. mac ftw.
I dunno if it is a MAC win. If it were, Steve Jobs would be there selling smaller and smaller versions of the same ATM. (but at least they would work).
Lol. Macs fail even worse than that sometimes, and you can’t fix it by clicking a button.

Lol. Windows? Security? I’m scared. “Srsly”.
Mac rules
7% market share for a reason.
And who do they rule? The large-dark-nippled people?
…
Anyone who uses a bank fails for allowing really rich people to get richer when they could invest it elsewhere.
/Palm Face
should’ve uzd Linux
Yup, linux, barely a 20% market share in industrial servers, and just passed Windows 98 with a 1.2% market share on PCs. Go tell me how both ATMs on linux are working.
“linux, barely a 20% market share in industrial servers,” u are wrong!
Linux has more then 80% on servers!
Dude, far more servers run Linux or BSD. Google uses Linux. Windows is for n00bs who can’t run a real OS.
Happened to me once. Oh crappy day…
ftpd.exe error is also quite common.
I wonder if it runs minesweeper.
Epic fail.
Man, even the ATM’s run pirated software in Russia.
Why don’t they just use Linux, or BSD, or Solaris or something like that?
Why the fuck is windows running on an ATM?
oh the joys of Russia.
Did you ever try to buy original genuine legal software in Russia? –> EPIC FAIL!
Feed Me A Stray Cat.
*feeds Brian Setzer to Capt. Wow*
That ATM is a loser lol
window$ fail, not atm
Hey Mr Happy, what’s wrong? Did momma drop you on your head as a child, or were you an asshole anyway?
