No. That’s not what that means.

Google offered higher pay and shorter working hours, but the union could only handle one of those numbers. 💾

Is it a US 14?

Yup. Works great. As of the iPhone 14, the US models are eSIM-only though.

Some years there are also differences in frequency bands the radios can operate on. It often depends on the year, but if they can’t design an antenna/radio system that supports every frequency in common use, they’ll offer phones with antenna/radio systems best suited to specific markets.

Even when your device can’t use every local frequency band though, it almost always still works well generally. My 13 Pro Max gets LTE or 5G almost everywhere here. Does it support every frequency that Portuguese carriers use? That I don’t know.

Algarve at the moment.

It's an American-bought iPhone, so maybe that has something to do with it. 🤷‍♂️

It shows up for me in Portugal.

You say that but you take one shit — ok ok — two shits in the rotisserie chicken station and all of a sudden you’re “no longer welcome at Costco” and “under arrest” and “deported from Canada.”

She's cleaning up, so yes. 🥁

He should have washed it down with some 40oz malt liquor bottles.

Nice try, Sundar

Definitely not overkill. It’s interstate theft over $100 (possibly over $1000). The only question is whether you file it or the shipper does.

File a police report. The shipper should have the original serial number, which can be remotely traced to who activated it. It's a criminal matter, not merely something to complain to a company about.

Thank you. That's exactly the explanation I was looking for.

Interesting. Knowing about that mapping is what I was missing. And so these Photoshop files (PSD) have the Pantone colors in the file data, not just the RGB values? So then when you display the file, it has to map to the color system the computer users? Is that accurate?

At this point, do you expect an "open standard" to replace Pantone or is there just too much investment?

Thanks for the explanation.

So when you use a Pantone color in Photoshop, there's extra data there about what inks to use, etc? It's not just the RGB value stored in the file, it's the actual Pantone color?

So for example, if I have a Photoshop file with Pantone colors and I take that file to a printers, they know how to print it better than RGB? Is that fair to say?

That makes a lot of sense. Thank you for the explanation.

So if you have a Pantone color, there’s extra metadata in the file that tells the printer what ink to use? Is that accurate?

Managing expectations is, in my experience, good in almost any circumstance. I guess if someone asked me “do you want exactly the color you have on this sample,” yes seems like an obvious answer unless you know the trade offs.

It’s like FedEx asking whether you want your package delivered the same day it’s shipped. Sure, why not?

So are these images with Pantone colors including extra metadata that’s useful for print but less useful for on-screen?

Thanks for the explanation.

So was the CMYK conversion impossible or just rushed? Like if you took the Pantone color you wanted to a color matching computer or something, and printed out a CMYK, they’d still be different?

And how does this work for a computer file? The computer monitor, even if a very high end one, still just has glowing primary color pixels. If I screenshot an old Photoshop open with Pantone colors, the screenshot should look identical on screen, but it would be different printed out?

“No! We should sit on the tarmac for 90 minutes without saying a word!”

… if only they realized, with Spirit Airlines, they could both be right. 🚫🚽🛩️

Meanwhile in India…
