The other day I saw someone at Walmart try to tap their card (Citi Costco?) on the iSC250 before inserting. Someone else was also apparently trying to use their phone (?) at Ralphs at self-checkout earlier this week before the attendant told him that they didn't support it.

Seems like more and more people are trying to tap first before inserting, just wish we didn't need the pandemic to convince people. One of the only positives of this whole thing, I guess.

60/40 wouldn't be needed if there was willingness to kill the filibuster, but that's a discussion for a completely different part of FT.
