I Use My Own Bags

At last, the Tesco self service Windows-kiosk tills have a new innovation; the "I'm using my own bag" button. It seems that between Microsoft and Tesco the penny has finally dropped that some people may actually want to do that and shouldn't need fleshware assistance to do it. Having said that, it still needed manual overrides when I used it. I'm guessing that someone picking up their bag to get a better angle to put their shopping in wasn't thought of as a use case. Still, it's a step in the right direction.

Oh Microsoft, the almighty patent holder and creator of all things tech, please think of a solution for us mere minions to use.

The previous paragraph is sarcasm for those who need it pointed out.
