DL has had this for YEARS. Just because you as a consumer didn't see it, didn't meant that it wasn't in the backend. Even today, there is tons of information that you as the customer cannot see. Back in 2013? They added baggage tracking to the app, but it didn't show it on a PRETTY PICTURE!!"
You won't be able to see when they store it in cold storage. You won't see which sort belt it went thru. You won't see what TSA belt it rode on. You won't see when it gets reticketed because you got changed.
That's all stuff we could see back in 2012... with bar codes and batch scanners.
This article is a puff piece right before the peak traveling season of the year... to get the brand in your head. RFID was being installed and used in the system a year ago. When I quit, we already had the RFID printers and scanners. They upgraded our hand scanners to cellular scanners (still just using the bar code, not the RFID).. and that's it.
This article should be titled "Delta invests in technology on the backend so that they dont lose your bags nearly as much". Doesn't sound as titillating as "YOU CAN TRACK IT REAL TIME (even though you could years ago) on APPY APP!!!"
My Dell 2130cn was a rebadged sammy. The new series 2142/H625/H825 are rebadged Ricohs or Xerox... I forgot what the Tier 3 tech said when I couldn't get it to connect to my AT&T router.
Every dell printer is a pure rebadge with a different case.
Have you ever worked at an airport? It sure doesn't sound like it.
Couple quick points:
Half hour has to be the cut-off for checkin... so you need to be there sooner to make sure you are checked in prior to cut-off. You need to start boarding the aircraft at 30 prior.
What good are random terminal security checks when Bob can put his bomb in his luggage and carry the trigger in his cellphone?
Also, FAMs do not prevent bombings if suicide is just the only goal. FAMs can make sure the flight deck is safe but if Jihad Johnny sets himself off in 30C... aint much a FAM will do.
Now, I'm with you. The TSA is worthless. Unfortunately, your ideas are not based in reality.
mindless bitching like that is one of the reasons why we as Americans can't get anything done. You can't make changes unless you vote. If you vote for another person, you are attempting to vote the incumbent out.
Now, what do you suggest? We have to get Citizens United overturned first... but we need to shake them up to make them scared, which requires people to show up at the polls. Getting more than 40% of voters to show up during a non-presidential year would be a start.
You're right but we're talking about the general public here. You have to spell things out right in front of their noses. It also protects you against the ticket traceback.
Easier to point out that their going to lose because they agreed to it on a piece of paper vs agreeing verbally, and then arguging it in court. People on the dole (around here, at least) can get small claims fees waived. So they got nothing better to do than to collect SSDI and sue people, even if they will lose.
The better way is to make the politicians fear the public again. Start voting out the idiots in office. Show them that if you screw up and start favoring the corps, you're history.
However, with American complacency at its highest ever (probably), they don't have anything to fear. Keep giving them their XBone, Netflix, Food Stamps, and Social Security and all your little servants will be content. Feed them useless entertainment news about Bieber and the latest outrage about some LGBT bathroom scandal, and by the time they drop the news that they are bending you regarding your rights, you're too tired to fight it because you've been arguing about if a naturally born male should be allowed in a female bathroom.
To back up mjm, guns brings out bigger guns. If you haven't noticed, Police departments have ex-military vehicles now. They can withstand a revolution better than you or I can. They have the armor to defend themselves.
Start getting pissed off and vote your congresscritters out. Then you may watch them start listening again.
Whenever I sell a car, a bog standard bill of sale comes with it. Don't want to sign? You're not getting it.
It just basically states my name, their name, make/model/year/vin, AS-IS, no warranty, buyer beware, date, and signatures. Not to be a douche, but to protect my rear in case they don't register it and then do something bad (crash/tickets/etc).
Really? the landline phone was more secure than the web. Going back a few decades, the only way you'd be able to snoop a phone conversation was to be a party to the conversation, work for the company (ie quality control supervisor), work for the phone company, or be hiding by the green tree and randomly changing phone pairs till you find an active line to a shopping network AND waste the time during the shopping and payment process. Rinse, repeat, you might get 3-10 cards for 8 hours of snooping.
Compared that to malicious programming or packet sniffing and getting tens, if not hundreds of credit cards in the same amount of time that it took you to get one via hard line.
Now with VoIP, voice can be packet sniffed the same as the web, but it still takes someone (or some really good voice transcription software) to sift through all that audio.
It should be a requirement for any developer, house builder, or city planning department to be a delivery person for at least 6 months. You will see the end of stupid addressing and small, hard to make out numbers REAL quick.
This rant brought to you by someone who has also been mistaken as Mr. Amazon.com man this past winter.
Twitters call to fame was quick and concise little blurbs. If someone wanted a full page essay, they would have posted it on livejournal, blogger, or whatever blog/diary/journal site that already exists.
Expand it to 240, Hell, even an even 200... but making it Yet Another Journal Program.... ugh.
No, Joe would be... because he was allowing another person to access your private website and store the information. He is using the private computer, and should know the rules regarding data interception on non-owned devices.
Your argument would be valid if he was on an insecured hotspot and someone was running wireshark and decrypting it from there.
They are stable, I'll give you that, but I wish that I could get through a day without having to reset my terminal a few hundred times because I get stuck in a terminal with "X-Wait" and a locked term.
I'd rather type 4 lines of code to rebook your ticket and resync rather than have to wait for AirportApps or whatever GUI to refresh and do it. Six if you include the "ER, ER" to finish the job.
Now, would I want to do a new PNR in SHARES? absolutely not. but for day to day operations, SHARES isn't bad. If you want to see cruft, try working with Deltamatic. The same thing that takes one command in shares takes 3-4 in Deltamatic.
Whereas having more money just requires someone to forget to take the money within the time limit - the money then goes back into the machine (not sure if it goes back to the dispenser or a different compartment). Yes this is very rare but does actually happen. People don't take their money for all sorts of reasons.
Not all machines are the "presenter" type. I have a machine which has a spray dispenser. It just spits the bills out into a holder for the user to pick up. If for some reason the bills stick together and make it through all the anti-theft/multiple bill detector measures, I just had an ATM shortage. In a perfect world, the stuck bills should go into the reject bin and the machine tries again with a fresh bill from the cassette, thus preventing any loss.
However, any reliable ATM owner knows that they should use new/ATM quality cash and fan it before entering it into the cassette. That 30 second maneuver virtually eliminates loss.

which will then immediately sell it off to the same company WF did.

nowadays, yeah. pretty much. Back in the day, however.... upgrading was par for the course.
I think they were trying to bring it back via "ITS EASY!!11 JUST BUY THE MODULE, SET IT AND FORGET IT!!!"
my lenovo goes weeks without reboots on windows 7. Only reason why I know the infrequency of the reboots is because my network password isn't cached.
The new square reader with NFC and EMV reader is bluetooth.
I get the impression that many 'Murcans would like very much if the US were LESS popular internationally!
The majority of Americans do not have passports... or only have them for their once a year trip to Mexico.
800-444-4444. It's MCI. It will read back the number in the first couple of seconds.

no, that's a different system. these are just for letting the fuel distributor know that they should show up or there's an issue with the tanks.
