When tech goes wrong: Man wins $57m on slot machine told it's a software error
It wouldn’t matter whether it was at the gambling mecca of Vegas, or, as in the case of Behar Merlaku, at a little-known casino in the tiny Austrian town of Bregenz – if the bells and lights on the slot machine I’m on start ringing and flashing, telling me I’ve won $57 million, then of course I’ll be planning my retirement. But when Swiss national Merlaku went to claim his jackpot, owners of the casino simply said there’d been a “software error” and that the 26-year-old was therefore not entitled to the big money prize.
This is messed-up!!! I'd tell the casio that when I didn't win it was a software error, so pay me fuckers..or the software developer owes someone $57 million !!!
I wonder how these guys would've reacted to their "software error"?
There's been a software error huh? Fuck you,pay me!
