Target has terminals that have a chip and pin slot, yet they have them blocked off.

Ikea had terminals with chip and pin slots way back in 2010. Disabled, of course.

So, in Phoenix, the apocalypse is happening. No electricity for hours, and there's half of a tree where my bug was parked this morning. Knocked both motorcycles over, too.

some texas redneck posted:Most terminals are PIN pads when you get into a decent sized or chain retailer, tied into the point of sale system. At least in the US, they're usually owned by the retailer with some kind of service agreement (where if one dies or gets broken, a new one gets sent out - larger places will keep a couple of spares on hand) - the only time I've seen them owned by the processor has been when it's a mom and pop place.* And even then, a decent chunk of mom and pop places have tied their card processing into their point of sale if they have anything beyond a basic cash register that they picked up from OfficeMax. It was like that here too, but in the mid '00s everyone except Wal-Mart and a couple others went to one of a small handful of standalone systems that are sometimes set up to talk to the POS via RS232 or some other serial/network bus. Basically any restaurant that isn't a major chain and most retail spots just expect the server/cashier to manually punch the amount in. Have mobile debit machines caught on in the states? I was absolutely thrilled when those things started popping up in gut trucks, tool trucks, taxis etc.

cursedshitbox posted:oxygen sensor issues eh? Alternator. They broke the connection to the battery some how. So instead of recrimping poo poo. They soldered it and made it weak as gently caress. Luckily a little help from the propane torch, swearing and all of the poo poo was out. Used a screw driver and pried the connector open, cleaned up some wire and bam. Fixed. The o2 sensor has loving wire nuts. But its working so I'll leave well enough alone. And on the plus side, I fixed an oil leak, put on a new power steering line. It dribbles a small small amount of engine oil but its acceptable.

Quoting you again because I just looked at the radar. There's a third storm coming through now.  Also was (un)lucky enough to find yet more evidence that my mom's roof is really in dire need of replacement. She's known it has been due for a few years, but water coming inside around a windowframe that isn't getting any rain from the outside...yeah that roof is loving done

A lot are connected via USB, though plenty of PC based POS systems still carry serial ports. Most of NCRs stuff is PC based. The only mobile debit I've seen much of has been stuff like Square. I have an account with them myself; I've used it for stuff like garage sales - I see them a lot in food trucks, also at concerts for band merch. Their fees are downright reasonable. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 11:02 on Sep 28, 2014 |

It takes us yanks about 1 1/4 hours to 2 hours mostly legally to drive 100 miles depending on local conditions, local speed limits, and/or effort levels of the local/state police departments 1:30 - 1:45 per 100 miles pretty typical for the UK in my experience in you are on the motorway, but the Middle / South of England can sometimes get proper hosed by traffic jams. The roads I typically drive in Scotland and I can reliably average 50-60 mph door to door despite being mostly single carriageway with a spattering of 30 limits through villages and towns. Although if you aren't willing to "make progress" that drops down to 45 ish. stump fucked around with this message at 17:59 on Sep 28, 2014 |

So our HHR was driven through some deep water after an awesome deluge here, not deep enough to get into the intake, however now the idle is higher than normal (1k rpm), the car is vibrating like it has bad motor mounts, and the A/C compressor kicks on and off constantly with the A/C on. The compressor is the lowest accessory on the motor and was probably under water for a period of time, is it possible the compressor is causing the symptoms? The idle remains high whether the a/c is on or off. Thinking about resetting the ecu but I'm not too hopeful that it will do anything.

Most of NCRs stuff is PC based. I used to do PCI compliance. To wrap this up: Don't use a card you care about or can't afford to lose on the internet. Period. Even when a company is fully compliant with regulations (none are), there is always, ALWAYS a MitM attack possible. I fear for the day when somehow root server DNS gets poisoned again and google-analytics.com magically goes off to Prague, or somewhere nearby.

Watched the Big Lebowski today with my wife. First time she'd ever seen it..loved it. Was also drinking white Russians the entire time. I just discovered a couple weeks ago that I LOVE this drink. e:I picked up a used Sony STR DG720 on ebay for less than $100 a few weeks ago. LOVE this receiver. Center channel/vocal sound is so much clearer than my outgoing Panasonic. Very impressed. angryhampster fucked around with this message at 19:39 on Sep 28, 2014 |

There's your food cost for the month poo poo away. Funny, one of the managers and I were talking about this yesterday. He gave away over $600 in food that night - that's not counting the food cost of the tower of pizza. And yeah, it wiped us out for the month. They want to see <$1000 in losses a month (preferably under $500) - that number includes customer satisfaction (free meals). On that note, guess who's going on on his day off?
