Comment Re:postal letter drop (Score 1) 78

I think the question is not revenue, but expenses , Revenue is 80 billion expense is 90 Billion, 10 billion dollar loss each year... need to reduce expenses... Instead of sending out 6 people out every day to cover a area, Send 1 person out to 1 section each day, Now in reality your going to need a couple at least but no need to go to every house every day. Very VERY few people get important must handle mail every day. Now granted there will need to be some adjustments to business models, but again if you need every day delivery for your business they maybe that is a revenue stream for USPS

Comment postal letter drop (Score 2) 78

While I doubt the US could do this, there should however be an adjustment to how and when postal mail is delivered. Daily deliveries should not be needed. Once or twice a week should work for most people. For those who want next day or packages use one the other next day services. USPS should be letter only, No bulk mail, no occupant mail.

Pretty much if your not in my contact list I dont want to talk to you. Even if your legit company, If I have no established business relationship with you, I dont want to talk with you. Not to mention all the true spam/scam calls I get. I.e I am from your internet company and have an offer for you. We can lower your rate, just give us some info (that my internet company already has).. First if you dont even know the same of my internet company I doubt your from them. Second, How many internet providers call you and offer to save you money. The scam/spam calls I get come in waves, Weeks of several calls a day then months with nothing. I assume its just someone selling data and someone acting on it. Never from a valid phone number, spoofed numbers, hacked numbers. The phone is for my use and I dont really want to talk to you if I dont know you.

Linkedin has just become an AI collection site. I get 4-5 offers a week, not for a job but to invest in some scam. Due to my you would make an excellent investor. I also get a lot of junk mail from linkedin itself trying to upsell me on services. Look people are looking at you but pay us and we will show you who. Many of the job post are junk.

Comment distro down (Score 1) 48

Distro list has over 100 distro's I think were safe. Be honest, How many people every used Clear linux or even heard of it until Intel decided to git rid of it. I am betting few did. Kaisen Linux billed itself as a rescue Linux, rescue from what? Most distros have the recovery modes. Most distro's are just ego driven forks, someone wants to make themself look special so they bring out a version and pump their chest. I like this KDE vs that one. I preloaded these types of tools vs that type. I do have to admit some Distro have gotten bloated as they become more commercial, but its still linux, Remove what you dont want and add what you do. There are some distro that might be better on VERY old Laptops with limited memory, but often its more of I can do it on a 1990s laptop vs I need to use it on an old laptop. There is Kali Linux for the hacker, ethical or otherwise, but again any Linux can load those tools. CachyOS is top on the distro list site, but see little to no mention of it anyplace else. They claim to do a lot with Security and Speed but if that was truly so then I think it would get more press.. Linux distros are like southern baptist churches. They grow and grow then someone pisses off someone in the church. They take a bunch of friends 2 miles down the road and build another church.
