Probably different models for different sets. The set I work with are purely wifi. They have a light on them to blink is the only extra thing they do

IR on them does sound stupid though, in a store environment that can be blocked rather easily

No they are wifi controlled

Got to think about those poor business if they have to pay a nickel more for labor they would be broke

Joking aside, minuim wage is a hot issue. One side fully believes that minuim wage is in fact a bad thing and shouldn’t exist. So for them putting a bill out that auto raises it would be counter productive to their interests business being able to hire with supply demand

More then Likely the overall average is hitting that. not really going to argue that. I have been at and looked at metrics for individual stores that have been 4.2,4.5, and one that was a 6% (their was a bit of restructuring that happened after that). I will state that those percentages were lost item numbers that could be accounted with other things other then theft.

The store thats in a “nicer” area and the one that has is in a really bad 1 can even out so the number is low. but the bad store can have really high numbers, numbers that can be worse as it goes through. Also keep in mind that the overall theft % has stayed “constant” by the link you gave, and thats with the annoying glass cases and other such being used to try to lower shrink. better measures are needed as time passes. A case an area cost 6k to order for the area I was in, and the store chose to put it there. or the ones that are paying for off duty officers to help. If they didnt work the stores wouldnt use them (and yes that does happen, a security set for a store got canceled because the numbers didnt change after 5 months)

I would rate it as a concern. Probably not “HUGE” concern but it is impacting thing.

I work loss prevention, so I have a slight bias. But I also see how often and to the volume that it is. There are individuals I have helped with that are linked to 6 digit worth of stuff (and then of course money theft but that’s a different ball game).

Yes if a company has 30,000,000 in sales, theft seems less a problem until it gets multipld out hundreds of times a 1,500,000 of saleable items being stolen can and is something that happens with the current security stuff. And while that is 1/20 the of the sales that 30 mill is before paying for the product, utilities and salary.

Profit is still there but it is getting harder to hold that profit and new ways to loose/new scams pop up all the time

The problem Is real but this solution seems very bs

Add in an extra twist. Hopefully if the sickos are at least happy with AI stuff they won’t need “real”

Sadly, a lot of it does evolve from wanting to “watch” to wanting to do

1 of the 2 would need to open to get updates. Steam would do it in the background the smoothest I think

Yea. I got Google music way back, it got moved to YouTube music and wrapped with premium. Can’t complain about the result

Depends on if it can scale and how far apart each has to be from another. A single windmill is not as impressive but you get a field of them you generate much more, hopefully it can get closer to a solar panel and be spread along a large are.

Imagine dead space being utalized as a supliment.
