It's not only phones that are dumb.
The bins in the left and right stores were emptied less than 24 hours before this picture was taken. There is a reason (not a very good one) why the binmen didn't empty the middle one, but that's rather beside the point.

Imagine the scene. A member of homo sapiens sapiens leaves his flat with a bag of rubbish. He approaches the bin stores and ponders "which bin will I but my bag in?".

He ponders anew "I can surely sqeeze it into that middle one" and opens the gate. Then discovers "Oh, I can't get my bag in. There's no room. I'll just put it down where the vermin can get at it."

And finally, no doubt having been born in a field as all good parents used to say, he shambles off leaving the gate open.
