Empty tomb

@pluralistic Seen similar in Cockfosters Tube Station in the UK. Still illuminated mind. Not sure there are any public phones left in London at this point.
@SHODAN @pluralistic
I do not recall seeing any functioning payphones in London, However I ran into this still functioning relic last year in Oxford.

@martijndevrieze @SHODAN @pluralistic BUSINESS STARTUP IDEA: Buy up empty phone booths, slap PV panels on top and a battery/distribution board inside, then rent them out as smartphone fast-charge charging points (with a lock-box to leave your phone in while it's sucking juice at £1/30 minutes).

"It's a phone box. You pay us for permission to leave your phone in it. You're welcome."

@cstross Some UK phone booths are already given to the community afaik. Some are used to store defibrillators and some are libraries.
@SHODAN As I live in the UK, I knew that already. Shocking, isn't it?
@cstross @SHODAN Please tell me that pun was intentional. In any case, it was good. 🙂
