Your last sentence is what really gets studied. Yes Ford did a cost (risk) benefit analysis, yes it was flawed.

...But why would anyone want a Trax?  It’s the same crap box with none of the faux luxury.

Probably becuase there is nothing unique, special or critical about any app on the Apple store.  Its a luxury product that can be had in many other forms without the 30% cut that Apple takes.

This whole thing is such BS.  Why is anyone allowed to tell a company how much they can charge for a luxury product?  This isn't medicine, this isn't real estate, hell its not even something unique to Apple products.  Its their hardware, running their software and their global market that the app store lets a…

While you get access to exclusives on Apple, the games available on Android seem to all be existing games that have been out for a while (albeit popular). You can flip that to be a bad thing, but you aren’t getting anything special on the Android side (all the games listed seem to be on Apple as well).

Why would any company prioritize bringing contract labor back when their actual employees are currently under a pay cut?

If you think this economy or Exxon are anywhere near the result of an actual free market, I have a bridge to sell you.

Weird that they didn’t make anything smaller considering their ability to.

Was the Duratec part of the mod motor family that produced the V12 Astons as well?

I understand facebook and google, and to some extent Amazon as they control a huge amount of the internet (along with MS) and have clearly shown that they will buy or destroy any competition while choosing not to venture into each others territory (not even to mention the whole privacy and information sales) debacle.

105 outside, 75 mph, 1000 lbs of occupants and stuff.

Holy scrolling Andrew, a couple things.

The placard can be revoked for misuse similar to how a license can be revoked for misuse. On the other hand, you can be sued and will lose for demanding someone with a handicap disclose their medical reason or ask them to move their vehicle from a handicap spot regardless of whether they display a placard.

Yes, under strict privacy restrictions (that are covered by HIPAA), and only in a setting where reasonable accommodation isn’t readily available.
