Many seniors rely on paper receipts. They often do not have internet access or any intention of using modern technology. Banning paper receipts is bad.
I really wasn't think of the in car infotainment. I was more thinking of the batteries. Replacing them in a Toyota Prius is over $3,000.00. Now, look at all the Nissan Leaf, Chevy Volt, and Teslas. All those batteries got to go somewhere...
Recycling is a joke. We used to dump crap overseas, but now, they don't want our old cardboard anymore.
What a mess!
With Electric batteries having a limited life span (like all of my old smart phones), we should include electric cars, which are basically smart phones on wheels. lol.
When I cord cut, I canceled satellite TV and put an antenna in my attic to watch digital television broadcast. What everyone is calling cutting the cable is BS and code for some media group. My internet is still with the local cable provider. Tell me, what cord did I cut? lol. What a joke topic.
Here we go again from the Climate Change Alarmists who are in denial about the true cause of global warming. The cause is overpopulation. Climate change is just a side effect and nothing more.
We are also eating the wrong meat. We should be eating humans (soylent green anyone?). lol. Time to bring in Thanos. Once we have removed half of the population, the issue of climate change is gone. All of the climate change alarmists can solve the problem by killing themselves this upcoming Earth Day.
If you put in a MOS, such as 74B, you get a lot of non-technical jobs, like Operations Manager. Basically, it just points you to companies that are "veteran friendly". Don't rely on Google.
Out in California, during the drought, a lot of water was pumped from underground. This ended up in lowering the ground level. Maybe the oil and gas industry are doing the same in LA?
Once encryption is reclassified as a weapon, it could be done. Don't think for a minute, that this will protect you for a minute. Software "rendition" can be done overseas in locations where USA law does not apply. When companies have to comply with governments such as PRC, etc. with full access to customer phone, data, etc., there is no privacy. There is only the illusion of privacy. This is all legal maneuvering by Apple so it can legally not comply with USA govt requests. It would then be done elsewhere. Imagine if you wanted to sell product in PRC, you would have to comply with PRC govt requests.
That would only apply in USA. Don't fool yourself. In PRC you have no protection. USA govt can have software "rendition" done overseas where USA laws do not apply. Or maybe just stick your head in the sand. Have some more Kool-Aid. Fool.
Source code was one particular example of tech companies complying with PRC. I am sure that there are other ways that tech companies are complying with PRC. After all PRC is big market.
Don't think for a minute that you have privacy with iPhone. Apple only wants to be able to legally say no to requests from USA govt. In Peoples Republic of China, Apple must comply, or they cannot do business there. Tech companies must provide PRC with source code (under SLA), just as Microsoft did with Windows.
Don't fool yourself for a minute. Apple has been doing this for China for a long time. They only want a legal reason to say no to USA govt, in order to sell more iPhone as a "defender of privacy". Think you have privacy, do you?
Not a clue, do you have? Don't fool yourself that Apple does not help the Peoples Republic of China. In USA, they only want a legal way to say no. In China, they have to comply with PRC requests. Don't even think for a minute that there is anything such as privacy.
One thing the govt can always do, whether we like it or not, is revert to the control of encryption that was common in the 1990s and earlier. They could, by law, restrict encryption for export, etc. One reason Apple should not push to hard, but then again Apple has no problem providing all kinds of decryption support in China.
I can see that. It will need to be at some level first. The good thing is how much money companies will save when they outsource management to an AI.

That is correct. My team in CA was laid off last year, but location in GA and Bangalore were kept. These latter 2 locations were new. While there were no new positions in CA, new positions were created in GA and Bangalore. This was a bit demoralizing as you knew what was going on, even when management/upper management did not reveal their plans. They did not want us to leave while we cross-trained new team members in the 2 locations.
The important thing is to be aware of things around you and to stay ahead of the game.

Overpopulation is a leading cause of global warming

MAGA pun

When this is done in California, it isn't news.

SCP to PRC is much easier. Why would they put it in books?
That was my point exactly!

China already claims moon as extension of South China Sea.
Yep you heard it first. We now have a new i-word. Ithority. :-D
