Requires a cellular data plan to operate, which is where that expensive operating cost comes in. For a family dog, I could see the expense being worthwhile, but for a number of things (wallet, keys, purse, backpack, etc) that AirTag tracking typically targets as their use case, this would get quite expensive rather quickly.

Look at the link - does it have a token on it to identify that particular survey invitation as the one they sent you? I’d wager that’s what happened rather than it being some deeper tracking. A stock standard survey monkey survey can do the same thing.

That’s 2 if’s. Sure, IF both of those things were true, maybe it would net out, but still be a paperwork and cashflow delay for the company (pay the duty today, get the money back at some point in the future) which sucks liquidity out of the market and generally holds back growth and investment.

But that isn’t particularly relevant since neither of those two things will ever happen. The tax cuts will go to the top earners, and retaliatory tariffs are very much a thing and cannot be ignored.

In the display that TSA agents are given, the image is no longer shown and instead the system shows an outline of a body with the questionable area marked. This was added after the aforementioned outrage from travelers so that every TSA agent didn’t get an x-ray view of your naked body. The scanners are the same, but the agent doesn’t see it anymore.

To hopefully help anyone out that buys eggs at Costco like I do:

• Despite the picture used in the article, these are the brown eggs, not white ones.
• They come in the plastic eggshell container in packs of 24
• You’re looking for the expiration date of Jan 6, and a Julian code of 327. These are printed directly on the plastic ON THE SIDE of the container, not on the top. It’s very easy to not notice the printing at all if you’re not specifically looking for it (or sometimes even if you are).
• Costco97.com has a much clearer image and explanation of what you’re looking for here
• You would have most likely purchased these Nov 22-26 (The Saturday to Wednesday BEFORE Thanksgiving in the US)

108 days of the year fall in that end-of-the-month window where they belong to the astrological sign associated with the month that follows, so almost 30% of all possible birth dates become harder to guess. (Your comment made me curious as to just how significant this variability could be in practice - a lot more than I would have guessed)

That would be a bad idea if the “correct” option is available. This is a DoB check without actually displaying your real DoB on the page, which could be used as PII verification by a malicious actor. If the correct astrological sign is listed and you say “Does not Apply”, it will count as a wrong answer.

Crappy way to do this, but they’re trying to walk a line between confirming your identity (or at least that you know the sensitive data of the person you’re spoofing) with multiple choice questions and not creating a security vulnerability where someone can leverage their site to compile sensitive data on individuals.
