Slight tangent. But I've recently been pulling old home videos off of MiniDV tapes. And I've found that the ffmpeg dv1 decoder can correct several tape issues when re-encoding from dv1 to essentially any modern codec. So I've got like 3GB video files that look incredibly poor, but then I re-encode them into h264 files that look better than the original. It's baffling how well that works.
The problem is that the quality on Mac has been degrading so It might just be time to consider a switch. Honestly, for that type of user, I recommend Chromebooks.
Honestly, because of the EPA regulations, it's difficult and expensive to make the small trucks that were so popular in the 1980s and 1990s. Tesla could have cleaned up with a simple single-cab electric truck (especially if it came with fleet purchase options). Because of the economics of the situation if it were priced in the 25-35k range it would fly off the manufacturing lines and become the new standard workhorse for local businesses (think plumbers going out to 5-6 calls a day and then charging overnight), plus it would have the added benefit of a "bring your generator to the worksite" stuff.
They'd just have to be willing to strip a lot of the fancy electronic stuff out for manual things (like manual doors, environmental controls etc...).
Probably the latter. Almost nothing that sucked today sucked less 20, 40, 60, 80 etc... years ago. They almost universally sucked more. We're just more aware.
For example, cops have always been beating black people; but that wasn't common knowledge for most until recently.
DST vsm Standard time literally doesn't matter. It's the switching between the two that kills people.
How else did you get music?

Can't be just an oversight. This has to be an intentional design decision. The "simple" (and economical) way to build this system is to build it so that the scan reads the price from a database and that price is then displayed and used to sum the total.
Keeping two prices, a display and a real one, is a design decision that adds a complexity to the system, makes it more difficult to administer and is an intentional design decision, especially if the numbers are allowed to differ.
A coupon not being applied correctly could be a mistake with that coupon. A sale not being taken into account, a problem with that sale or that UPC entry in the database. Those could be issues with data entry and data management.
This is different. This is intentional. And I'd bet, we've just found someone either cheating the tax man or embezzling funds.
If there're two different items calculations one "real" one and "display" that's an intentional choice made because they know there can be discrepancies.
Did they call someone over when they saw the discrepancy? Because, you know, mistakes happen.
Not in software. The software is doing exactly what it was programmed to do.
They also stopped teaching typing in schools. My younger family members never had an computer class or a typing class.
