@jonty Is that a CRT display up by the coin slot? Hell yeah.
(I've been meaning to acquire a payphone, but I haven't found one in half-decent condition for a reasonable price yet)

@jonty I have no jokes, but I pulled out my old scout shirt the other day and was amused to find there was still a 10p and a 20p for phone box calls, in the pocket with the record book

@becomethewaifu Yes, but not one you can use easily - it's actually a DEC VT520 terminal

@becomethewaifu Oh wait, you meant on the phone not in the background! No, that's just an LCD sadly.
I do have a Canadian payphone with a VFD in it which looks cool as hell

@becomethewaifu @jonty it’s an lcd, and from the dark line across the top it looks like it might be failing?
I really hope I’m wrong there!
I really hope you don’t give up on the lock, I’ve seen too many people give in and drill them. I’m sure there must be some locksport people in your orbit who could get into it eventually and you only need to open it once!

@jonty Yeah, meant the one on the payphone, the seal on the top edge and shadow on the right sorta looks like the curve of a tube. (The VT520 is still cool though, I kinda want a dumb terminal even though my apple 2 can do an "authentic" emulation of one just fine)

@jonty @becomethewaifu wat!? Was that a standard feature? I don't remember seeing any, but it's been a long time. edit: never mind, saw your concurrent reply.

@alex @jonty Now I have a Cursed Idea for if I do ever acquire said payphone... I do have a very small CRT display floating around on a shelf somewhere, though it's a good bit bigger than the LCD in this model. (It's an old portable TV, so about 4-5 inches I think? It's currently in storage, so not accessible to measure)
-
Do I have the keys? No. Can we pick the lock? Also no.
@jonty How sturdy is the case back (the part that's normally mounted to a phone booth or cinderblock wall)? That's probably where I'd start, assuming hacking the thing is the goal.

@becomethewaifu You're totally right, the moment I saw it I can't unsee it! Now I want to retrofit one...

@lpbkdotnet @becomethewaifu I've got a lead on potential keys, but unfortunately the serial number is nowhere to be found so finding the right one might be tricky!
I have a feeling it might be bypassable, will break out the boroscope and take a look next week

@lpbkdotnet @becomethewaifu @jonty I spent about 45 minutes on it and didn't get it open, it has security pins and a fiddly little keyway.
