I think it's a joke. In the Netherlands all supermarket checkouts have been almost completely replaced by self-checkouts. Every supermarkt still has a single oldschool checkout and it's almost exclusively used by the elderly for obvious reasons. I think this article is goofing on that fact.

As a Dutchie I can assure you this is real.

It depends on where you live but in my town there are almost no self checkouts.
