Funny how they're never broken outside of the south. Wonder why

I’m going to give you a clue: they aren’t actually broken.
I wouldn't be surprised. Someone I know who teaches HS was once telling us the different things students, who worked at fast food restaurants, would tell them.
There were a few, but I remember one being about onion rings at popeyes. If you order onion rings at popeyes and they tell you they are out, they are probably lying. It has something to do with having to go get the onion rings and fry them when they are ordered (opposed to the chicken, fries, shrimp which is already out since they are constantly frying them).
At least in this particular location, when that happens (they tell you they are out because they don't want to do extra work), its because the owner or manager isn't there.
There were a few other things. I want to say that, at least at some burger kings, it's best to order a "customized" burger. If you order the whopper meal for example, and you are getting it with everything that comes on it, then it will be a burger that has been under the heating light longer than most people would be comfortable with, if they knew exactly how long it has been out, but if you want it without pickles and onion.. and extra mustard or something, then they have to make it so it's more likely to be fresher.

Bad publicity.
BK in St Francisville got all kinds of shite because the lazy bastards on drive thru told cops in a squad car they were closed in the middle of the day.
The appearance of it being anti-cop rather than lazy frickers got the drive thru guys fired.

No no no, rookie mistake. If you order extra anything they will just add that to the old burger.
You must request that something that is on the standard burger that isn’t easily removed be taken off, such as mustard. That way they must make you a “fresh” burger. Fresh is in quotes bc in all likelihood the meat has been sitting there since the previous shift, but at least this way it’s freshly assembled.

This has been posted about on Reddit before and most people who worked in fast food restaurants said that is a myth. Patties are pre-cooked and kept in a steamer or on the grill for a bit in some places, but the actual assembly is done to order. This was the case when I worked at Sonic as well.
Other than not liking something and asking them to leave it off, I don't really understand the overuse of customization. "No this, easy that, extra this, add that" all to one sandwich. Its like damn people. Then they get mad when its wrong. You changed the whole product, dude.

The tip is correct, it's just outdated. When I worked at McDonalds back in the 90's, we actually assembled all of the types of burgers (with all their ingredients on them, such as cheese, mustard, pickles, onions, etc.), wrapped them up, and put them on a warmer to wait until a counter person needed it. The idea was so that once someone ordered a cheeseburger (or whatever), they could be given the sandwich within seconds. However, if something didn't sell really quick, those sandwiches would sit on the warmer for hours. THEN if someone bought it, it tasted fairly bland and nasty. But now they don't premake the burgers up to just sit there waiting, so it really isn't necessary.

Maybe soft serve ice cream and shake machines are difficult to properly clean and maintain.
What if McDonald’s knows that the number of functional ice cream machines proportionally increases reports of food poisoning linked to their restaurant?

Here’s the real answer, since I’m a drive through operator at McDonald’s:
Those machines shut off after 30 minutes of idle time, and then you need to dump the old ice cream, mix, clean it, etc, before starting it up again and making a new batch. The workers are either too lazy to do this, or are in the middle of turnover over the machine. My moneys on the former.
Obviously, it’s much easier to explain that to a customer as “it’s broken rn”

I worked at McDonald’s in high school (80’s) and the machines rarely broke. We had two different machines as well. We would shut one down in preclosing, but almost never told customers the machine was down. Don’t know what the deal is today?

Need to bail on the machines and just offer prepackaged ice cream sandwiches

That one on MLK is terrible. I haven't really tried any other locations. Barrow St. was fine the one time I went there
