Maybe I have a low tolerance for delays. I know technology can do better. The lag is an explicit choice or technical incompetence. Maybe even the POS are running Electron these days.
- MBCook 2y agoI think I have a pretty low tolerance as well. I can say I find the CVS machines slow the few times I’ve used them. Possibly Home Depot too but I have little experience. But at Target, Whole Foods, and two local grocery chains it just hasn’t been an issue. The UI is slow if you need to enter a code for a vegetable or when you hit pay, but for scanning it works fine if I ignore the slow prompts and just go at a comfortable speed.
