I get the benefit/value of having an all in one internet enabled PoS system, food trucks, carts etc all make perfect sense to need this. But why does it need an AP?
iPads come with the option of Cellular data, why complicate it further by needing separate internet provided over dedicated WiFi?
I just asked the guy who is our "Product Specialist" on the subject and he said " an Added Layer of Protection to keep it away from regular wifi .
and that came from the Provider.
And you asked... what makes dlink not regular WiFi?
And I asked what;s the point in dlink ap - And he said to add security and put the IPad and Printers on the same network., This is what he was told to do to stay "PCI Compliant" - It's not my project, he took this one by the horns and jumped right in.

Ah, the joys of Microsoft “Premier” support.

This is the "Amazon Basics" keyboard. But I love their $6 mice so figured I'd try the keyboard as mine is old and getting "sticky".

@scottalanmiller I can highly recommend the Razr gaming kb that I won... If you really want to spend $100. Otherwise I deploy the cheapest ones I can get from Fry's (just down the street from the office).

Trying a new taco/tapas/tequila place for lunch. Salsa is excellent, tacos on the way. Gotta fuel up for working late (office 365 deployment begins at 6pm).

I've only purchased their USB extension cables. At work, we have a few of their Amazon Basics plates.

Mostly because I can type all day long and not cause issues with pain in my wrists. I might be able to care less about the lighting thing, but it would be difficult.

I’ve been using the Microsoft natural keyboard for so long, outside of using a laptop, it would take me a while to get used to a non-curved keyboard again.

The curved thing doesn't bother me nearly so much as mushy membrane keyboards. I feel it in the evenings if I'm using one of those too long in a day. Probably also have joint issues, but that's a whole other thing.

I’ve never used a mechanical keyboard. The one you link is the first I’ve seen that’s reasonably priced.

Yeah, that's the other good thing about it. Mechanical and no more expensive than a halfway decent normal keyboard. I paid a little more for mine, but whatever, the mechanical keys were worth it.

Getting ready to head to St Louis for a morning meeting. Then back to Chicago by tomorrow night.

To paraphrase the great Tom Segura:
"We’re not gonna agree on everything. Okay? But we should agree on this. If you buy tickets at face value and then resell them for a profit, you’re a piece of shit. "
Today I call for the public torture and execution of any and all ticket resellers, aka SCALPERS, because they are the layer of odious filth that profits by robotically buying all the tickets to events they have no interest in, then gouging fans who couldn't get tickets through legitimate means and making hundreds or even thousands of percent profit. There is a special layer of hell waiting for them, but honestly, I'd rather have a hand to hand combat arena set up for the fans to wail on the scalpers. Whoever wins the fight gets the tickets. Pushing sharp objects and other weapons into the ring would be welcomed. I've been working on my "hang you up by your achilles' tendons and skinning you like a catfish" style. It would only take 2 or 3 of these events to stop scalpers from wanting to resell tickets. Fucking scum of the earth... I literally put them at the same level as paedophiles and politicians (in that they all deserve to be publicly tortured and left to die).
(impetus for this post - there is a scumbag, piece of fucking shit, ticket reselling fuckbag that works in my office. I'd pay a large admission price to see him strung up and beaten by people who couldn't afford the scalper tickets to this or that event, myself included. Ticketmaster and Stubhub are now all kinds of blocked on the office network. If you engage in this type of activity, I suggest not mentioning it on this forum, I might take some time off and hunt you down...)

I've never understood this. It's just normal reselling. Why do we call one scalping, but another reselling? To the point that most people feel resellers are a positive thing, and like the discussion yesterday, vendors actually promote them. What makes it good in one case, and bad in another?
