Who wouldn't want a nice shoulder massage during a long phone call?

Legacy windows software usually. I had to use something like this for soil sampling when I worked for farms.

All the locations are programmed in an old obscure format that only works with one program, and there's hundreds of fields with dozens of points each. It was just easier to stick with windows that port everything. Plus they're more rugged than an iPad in an otter box.

Also, in my case the windows PC had a higher precision gps (mini pcie card) that is not available on consumer devices due to extra licensing, and external base stations.

Laptop was probably an option but would have been even heavier for the same level of ruggedness. These days though most laptops don't have any internal expansion ports aside from m.2, so it probably wouldn't work for the reasons we needed one.

How would you advise this be staked into the ground for high wind areas? By the bottom strings or by putting the bottom holes up higher so the posts act as stakes?

No prob, I'd hate to see this disappear over some IP nonsense.

Maybe I'm missing it, but are there blues and lavenders? It seems very red-orange heavy

TMO owns mint. I wonder how long mint plans will stay at their same price

Well it's in gelatin which is used to encapsulate many medications.

You might want to drop the lcars from the name & description. The rights holders are fairly litigious, or at least they were when someone put out an iPad app.

Do your rooms not have windows? Window and portable units are a lot cheaper than 2500

If you set it up right you could capture some of the evaporated portions and turn it into brandy.

I'm actually kinda surprised that data centers aren't repurposing the heat to evaporate lithium brine
