That’s a pretty stupid take.

Open source CAD software is basically useless. As someone who has tried every few years to use open source alternatives for personal projects, I always end up paying for an AutoCAD or Fusion 360 license.

My professional background has always been higher end software like Siemens NX, Solidworks, Inventor, & AutoCAD.

LibreCAD is the closest I ever got to something that seemed useful for 2D. I hate FreeCAD, QCAD, BRL-CAD, etc. Many open source projects waste so much time to do simple tasks and buck standard methodologies for their own spin on how they think you should design.

It is against FedEx policy. These are terms you would agree to if signing for a shipment.

Cash is commonly banned by most logistics companies. As it is openly stated that it will not be carried by FedEx, it’s no stretch that the police will consider it contraband.

Source: I work for a competing company that also will not ship cash. Any of our employees will tell you no. Ship cash at your own risk.

I too watched ‘Rebel Ridge’ last week on Netflix.

I’m an employee in the U.S., working for a large international shipping company with a yellow and red logo. We’ve been struggling to maintain profitability stateside since the COVID shipping boom ended. Shein and Temu are basically keeping the U.S. operation afloat making up a significant double digit percentage of our revenue currently.

We can’t compete domestically as our rates are sky high compared to brown and purple and we’ve become overly dependent on these Chinese retailers. I’d say this is a good signal to find a new gig.

Apparently, Harris is fond of “motherfucker.”

Many of us who live in the U.S. feel the same way.

About as many corners as were cut in the construction of the Galactica.
