If China says to Apple we want the same facilities/privileges you gave to the US then Apple will comply. China has enough clout/market share for that to happen.
If they do this for the FBI (US Government) then any overseas government will ask for the same privilege/device. And No, they won't be sending the devices to the USA, the unlocking device will be in the country concerned.
Of course, Apple don't have to agree. Unless they want to keep doing business in that country.
The USA warehouse opens the parcel and repackages it if they can. This saves volume and for Amazon packages this might be a 50% volume saving. All of the packages are then bundled together and shipped to New Zealand for final distribution.
For the user there may or not be a mail cost saving. You pay for shipping to a US address and then for shipping from there to Australia. The service is extremely useful where the seller won't ship to a foreign address but will ship to a US one.
You don't need a Cadillac to deliver a parcel when a Honda will do the same mission. Thus the F35 may be overkill for many missions that the F-18 can accomplish at lower cost.
In the Second World War the Germans had better tanks but sheer numbers built at lower cost were able to overcome them. So a better fighter doesn't mean you can win battles or wars.
WinXP, even patched, is the equivalent of driving around a rust bucket with bad wiring and bald tires.
It's an accident waiting to happen.
A bad analogy.
It is more like driving around in an old 1950s car with no seat belts and no air bags and no crush zones.
If it is has been maintained it will still do the job required of it but care must be taken. Why upgrade - spend the money - if the equipment is still capable of doing what is asked of it?
I'm a Windows XP user. I see no need to upgrade. The only circumstances in which I would upgrade is either I can't find hardware to run XP on or the data I process (documents, music, video) have no applications I can use on XP. These circumstances forced me from 98 to 2000 and now XP.
Yes, I'm going to have to take care to stop being infected by malware. Good anti-virus, good firewall, Chrome browser, safe surfing habits, care with email.
If you would like a similar analogy people drive old cars with drum brakes, no seat belts, no air bags and no crush zones in modern traffic. They see no need to upgrade as well. Just take care and be sensible.
If your power steering goes you have very poor leverage no matter what type of steering system you have.
And British cars successfully used rack and pinion without power steering, the popular British Morris Minor from 1948 - 1972 was one of these. Two and a quarter turns lock to lock.
NEC had 10 MHz 8088 clones when the normal 8088 was only 4.77 MHz. These were the V20 chips. Quite competitive with the 6 MHz 286 as well. I still have one of these somewhere.
They are in Chapter 11 bankruptcy at the moment. The next stage is Chapter 7 hopefully when Kimball's ruling comes through. Then the Government through the agency of the Delaware court will terminate them.

The bans are gone. I'm from New Zealand and can now access both chans successfully.
Yep Portal and Portal 2. Throw in Half Life as well and possibly Half Life 2.
Let's see.
There's Linux, BSD, Windows XP, Windows Vista as backup OSes.
No problem.
The natural tidal range of the oceans is of the order of one metre (several feet).
That's at sea. NOT on the coastline.

Interesting.
I thought ResidualVM was meant to be handling Myst rather than ScummVM.
It's China not Latveria, that's the problem.

1. It can be more expensive. You have to do the sums and work out which is cheaper.
2. New Zealand's Post Office has been doing it for a couple of years with no problems.
New Zealand has a similar service. It's been running for a couple of years or so.
It is called Youshop https://www.nzpost.co.nz/tools...

>> A proven fighter is one that has been through the teething problems that the F-35 is going through now.
No, it's not.
A proven fighter is one that has shown itself to have a good combat record.

I'm sure there's a HTML web page usability design guide around that the Slashdot Beta programmers are using.
Does anyone know the name of it because I want to make sure I don't buy it.
>> Therefore, $7.2 million of intangible assets and $6.3 million of goodwill related to Slashdot Media were reduced to zero.
And Slashdot Beta reduces the goodwill left in Slashdot Media to below zero, a phenomenon last seen with Stephen Elop and Nokia.
