Nowhere in the article does it state Apple is claiming this is “innovation.” In fact, it discusses the EU regulations driving the change and the fact that Apple will roll out globally instead of using a different version of iOS in the EU.

Apple “Fanboys” aren’t as rabid as the internet likes to portray them and Android users aren’t morally superior. It’s a phone. Get over it.

Not a member of this community but I clicked the picture because I used to manage a machine shop. We discarded a hundred of these a day. Usually in red, green, blue, and clear depending upon the tool manufacturer.

It is against FedEx policy. These are terms you would agree to if signing for a shipment.

Cash is commonly banned by most logistics companies. As it is openly stated that it will not be carried by FedEx, it’s no stretch that the police will consider it contraband.

Source: I work for a competing company that also will not ship cash. Any of our employees will tell you no. Ship cash at your own risk.

I too watched ‘Rebel Ridge’ last week on Netflix.

Boeing*, not ULA.

I’m an employee in the U.S., working for a large international shipping company with a yellow and red logo. We’ve been struggling to maintain profitability stateside since the COVID shipping boom ended. Shein and Temu are basically keeping the U.S. operation afloat making up a significant double digit percentage of our revenue currently.

We can’t compete domestically as our rates are sky high compared to brown and purple and we’ve become overly dependent on these Chinese retailers. I’d say this is a good signal to find a new gig.

Apparently, Harris is fond of “motherfucker.”

Many of us who live in the U.S. feel the same way.

About as many corners as were cut in the construction of the Galactica.
