vilppuvuorinen··on Regulating the Rag and Bone Man (2017)
I just love that straight up £->USD conversion without mentioning the 150 years of inflation since 1875.
vilppuvuorinen··on Flexport CEO on how to fix the US supply chain crisis
Every available chassis and inch of yard space is filled with empty containers. Maybe the labor deficit is in the production of exportable goods that would turn the empty containers into full containers on their way out of the docks.

There's an ongoing world wide (minus some regions) container shortage going on at the same time.

vilppuvuorinen··on Jabra: We know our Bluetooth headsets don’t work with laptops. Sorry, no refunds
I had an Evolve 80 headset. It's of the corded kind. The control unit on the cord went crazy whenever I started a meeting over any video conference tool. Support insisted that none of the devices I had supplied enough power for it (500 mA).

I gave up on the headset and passed it along to the next unfortunate soul. After months of being told my devices were at fault and some months of radio silence I got an email stating the firmware bug causing the issues has been fixed.

Long story short it looks like the support is indeed trying to wear you down.
