I think it turned out a lot of the drivers are illegal aliens, so tracking them down is nearly impossible.
Perhaps you should be asking why the trucking company failed to file the proper I-9 employment forms?
I wouldn't be surprised if folks tried to just replace their iPhone with one of these. I'm guessing Apple does something to fuck you out of doing that, though.
The cheapest configuration I could find on the site, came out to $949 for a cellular-enabled model (256GB, standard glass)
You bring a fair point when consumers find an iPhone priced higher than that. And the iPhone Duo certainly is.
This is happening shipping industry wide.
Guy Fieri had trucks full of his high end tequila stolen and he went public with the issue.
I think it turned out a lot of the drivers are illegal aliens, so tracking them down is nearly impossible.
When "high end", ends up looking like a Hollywood script hack.

The CSO probably wanted to call the training clip "Why Supply Chain Security Matters" back then. To no ones regard.
Electrician, plumbing, welding are three skilled trades that AI will never replace
They're already selling pre-fab houses built by robotics today. Built in a warehouse. Delivered and assembled onsite with minimal crew. Won't be long before entire walls of pre-constructed homes are pre-designed by the customer, and pre-wired by the same robotics at the factory, to be plugged together onsite like Lego. Eliminating the need for human-grade wiring jobs. Human liability insurance alone will prove that reality eventually. No company will want to be liable for causing great bodily harm or death to a human electrician when that cost certainly isn't getting cheaper, and risk is mitigated to a human level only. Those will be settlements in the tens of millions tomorrow without reform.
Welding is under the same scrutiny as other professions with regards to pure human liability. Automated systems are delivering welding seams flawlessly, and arguably better than human-driven systems. Won't be long before automated seams are the only seams accepted and approved. How long before it's a hell of a lot easier to send a robot deep-sea welding than Greed bowing to a human rotation schedule for human (medical/health) reasons.
Plumbers are golden. Respect them. We humans are always gonna be in The Shit and need help.
I'd use it to get a degree in an AI proof industry, like dental hygienist..Other AI proof industries might be aromatherapy and massage..
Ever notice how people neglect dental hygiene even when the economy is good, but insurance options tend to suck ass?
Multiply that lack of concern times a shitload during a Recession. Or a metric fuckload during a Depression. Who the hell has money for aromatherapy and massage today?
Food. Clothing. Shelter. Pre-AI Capitalist delusional Wants will be easily replaced by Basic Survival Needs under Mass Welfare (a.k.a. UBI). If you're not in one of those Needs-based businesses, you're likely going to be out of business.
We can't even get taxes out of The Rich. The fuck makes The Unemployables think they're going to get a reasonable paycheck out of them? Forget minimum wage. The Have-Nots are about to be introduced to survival wage.
No. I have NO idea how Greed intends to sustain the stock price they worship when the entire customer base becomes The Unemployables. Neither does deaf, dumb, and blind Greed.
This is a "the cat is on the roof" email. The layoff email(s) will come later if the number of the employees that accept the offer is lower than what Microsoft decides is necessary.
True, but if you are not in the final round of layoffs you tend to still get a good severance package. The good severance package helps reduce the panic among the surviving employees.
If you weave a basket it can last several lifetimes.
Think about that.
OK, those basket are unicorns from a burial chamber or some other situation where they were not used and in a rare environment that preserved them. Most don't last and/or are somewhat disposable. Hence so few of them surviving and production being continuous.
Civilization is littered with the debris of clay pots. It would be littered with discard baskets too except for the organic materials they are made from rotting away (as designed by nature).
while there may be more anti-AI backlash on the left than the right, there's an awful lot on both sides (and a lot of users on both sides).
Which type of AI backlash?
The ban it and the data centers they rely upon,
or the lets not over estimate and overuse the limited reliable capabilities that AI offers.
Those two extremes should not be lumped in together.
Im glad the left is anti-AI now. They can return to Etsy and sell weaved baskets for a living.
Come on, there are some conservatives on Etsy making really nice leather EDC pouches.
Microsoft is offering buyouts to about 60,000 employees
voluntary retirement program
Well, sounds better than a surprise layoff email.
It's a great firewall OS, and one can even toss in routing, multihoming and being a DHCP server for a switch.
And when you need a unix console it would also be a pretty handy box to ssh into as well.
The 1998 survey comes closest to measuring actual business results specifically attributable to Internet adoption.
Does it though?
It wasn't until 1998 when RoadRunner cable-based internet broadband service was doing a limited deployment of "high speed" (2-3Mb) service in a handful of cities in the US. Meaning 95% of homes were still dialing up to actually use this thing people were called the "World Wide Web". Back when consumers were asking for the AOL keyword to find your product.
Attention spans today certainly wouldn't generate online profits impatiently not-waiting on the ass-end of shopping images doom-downloading at 28.8K speeds. Business was measuring the "impact" of a niche way of measuring revenue at the time. Would we be really surprised to find the surveys were sponsored by those holding commercial real estate investments in shopping malls needing to protect foot traffic revenue at the time? No. Not really. The behavior of Greed, is timeless.
Today, we have an entire planet clamoring to use AI in every aspect of their lives. We're now paying a premium for RAM because of AI demand. AI is being deployed in an environment where GDP is measured in consumer spending. An environment that enables spending addicts to spend their money even faster. The 8-year old understands what AI is. Because they're using it.
That's a far cry from when the majority of the planet had no idea what the internet even was when trying to sell a World Wide Web of services in the 90s.
If systemd is so bad, then why are the experts(system developers, distro builders) supportive of it?
Because it is a tool aimed at distro builders. It does the things they want. That doesn't mean it's good design, and it doesn't follow the Unix way.
Lennart Poettering kissed distro builder's asses until they included his tool. Once he got it in, he did whatever he wanted.
SystemD isn't a monolithic application. It's a collection of utilities that all share the SystemD banner.
Literally every monolith ever is a collection of smaller parts.
Your example proves you don't understand monoliths. For example, it is perfectly possible to use Google Maps without using Google search, even though they are both part of the same monolith. "using" and "not using" aren't what determine a monolith. What determines a monolith is improper separation of concerns, and that is a design mistake made by systemd.
Systemd is a monolith.
Money is the root of all wealth.
