Why not just use a shockwatch and stick it on the outside?
If they really worked reliably, they would be in wider use. I would gladly pay the small premium for these things as would many people.
But I suspect that it would not ameliorate the problem since damage and returns are built into the cost of doing business and the shippers have no incentive to correct the problem any moer than they have..
Business relationships color the news for all outlets; even NPR and PBS now have "sponsors."
The local paper beagn to run a series of articles giving advice on how to negotiate the purchase of new and used cars. After the first installment ran, the local car dealers called the paper and threatened to withdraw all their advertising. No more articles about how to negotiate buying a car.

The bowing to the excesses and insanity of capitalism has reached bizarre extremes. This is how little kids act. "Mommy! Jimmy is COPYING me! Make him PAY!"
Mental modeling is a funny thing. We used to think of electricity as a liquid. You could substitute voltage for pressure, amperes for gallons, do the math and come up with the right answer. The theory had remarkable predictive power. Was it "wrong?" Well, we have better models today.
Water used as an analogy to illustrate an idea is different from believing that water and electricity are the same thing. Otherwise everything on Slashdot would actually be a car.

Maybe with some 5G coverage? Can we do some next-gen dialog about it?
iPhone-ista Outrage!
I read the page and there's a fix for it. So... your issue was?
I suspect that, given that the bug can be fixed, the VirtualBox devs should fix their own code and not rely on the kindness of strangers.
Thus making Windows XP completely secure!
Why not Commodore/PET BASIC?

Just call it the iBerry. It will sell . . . dozens.

Jack Benny had that plate over 70 years ago. He said it meant "Know Me In Truth" when in fact it was Yiddish for "kiss my ass".

What epiphany led you to your current role in debunking false claims?
Has the significant knowledge about how the brain works as reveled through FMRI made it any easier to debunk supernatural claims?
Why are some people so willing to accept a supernatural explanation when trickery or fakery is involved and easly proved?
