We’ve had self flying and landing planes for years though. You can’t really compare controlled airspace to the chaos that is operating on the ground.
I’m still skeptical they won’t fuck it up, but this should be a manageable problem for ai.


Dbrand leather skin on the back to give me grip, then one of those ohsnap things superglued to the skin. It’s handy and offsets the camera bump, making it sit nicely. Thin glass protector on the front.


I got hammered with ms auth requests for weeks before I finally just changed it to a dedicated email address. Really frustrating.
People who talk excessively loudly and can be heard across the entire office.


I’d use Canada Post, except they won’t ship products internationally that contain a lipo. UPS wasn’t my first choice =(


Yeah, this thread has me reconsidering and thinking I should just embed the cost in shipping.


Those 2% were covered by the 3rd party insurance, and I send out replacements right away instead of waiting for the insurance to do their thing.
Yep you’re well within your right to do a chargeback and I’d probably have to eat the loss, but I’m not willing to ship a replacement in that case either. The insurance would ensure you get the product at the end.


In which case that’s bundled into the shipping cost, so you’re paying it either way at the end of the day. I could just not offer and pad the shipping rates, but opted to give my customers the choice. So far I haven’t had anyone who opted out, lose a package. Those likely to lose them, know already that their local ups is sus.


Given the small fee in ops screenshot, most likely. We don’t know who their shipper is.
My understanding is trying to get reimbursed by ups is also a time consuming headache. They make you wait a while, need evidence, etc etc etc. I can just ship a replacement right away and as long as the original package stays lost, I don’t have to worry about not being reimbursed.
Also ups sucks so much I’d rather give that insurance money to someone other than them. I don’t understand how ups can lose packages that are being held at a store for pickup, unless their employees steal them.


Only up to a smallish amount, it’s been a few years but i think it was like $100 cad


For people asking what this is - for my small biz, adding insurance via ups would be about $25 per package, and 3rd party protection is about $11. I don’t make any money off this, it’s strictly to cover lost / damaged shipments.
I offer default protection on during checkout but call it out in a big obvious box, and warn that if you remove it and the package is lost then you’re out of luck. Most people leave it on, and I have about a 2% package loss rate (thanks ups) that has all been covered so far.
If I didn’t offer it via 3rd party then that $25 would be rolled into the shipping cost, so the customer is forced to pay. This way they get the option, and it saves them money.
I wish more companies would just be up front about it though, it feels deceptive when they shove it in without explaining why.


Most bacon bits aren’t actually meat, they’re soy protein.
As a media client, totally. Lots of people run jellyfin on Android TV sticks and things like that.
I’d be pretty concerned about prompt injection risks with feeding a LLM unsanitized data. You definitely need a good harness around it…
