Citation please? Apple was part of the USB-C Specification Working Group. Despite their obsession with the Lightning connector, they were also the ones who made USB-C-only laptops.

The microblogging platform that once limited posts to 140 characters is now a "video-first" platform?
In aviation, an intentional accident is still an accident. A suicidal pilot can deliberately crash an airplane, and it's still considered an accident.
The example where an interview of a victim of Hurricane Ciaran, originally in French, was deepfaked to be speaking English, was pretty scary. Some people will think that it's just for convenience, but for me, it's a step too far down the slippery slope. If they were to do the same for a politician, a slight nuance in how a phrase was translated could change everything.
Anyone who was a LifeLabs customer on or before Dec. 17, 2019 and who lives in Canada as of Oct. 25, 2023 can now file a claim online through the class action's website.
Applicants will be asked for their full name, address, personal health number, phone number and an email address that can receive Interac e-transfers.
Who manages the information for the claims, and how do we know it's going to be secure?
Since Italians take the authenticity of foods so seriously, Prosciutto di Parma and many other foods are already protected by DOP designation.
Once you accept venture capital, you're pretty much down the path to going public, because the investors have an expectation of realizing their gains if the company is successful.
That's the crux of the issue here: someone does feel the need to not fill out the field (i.e. filling it in with an "X"), and the health authority is forcing them to use either "M" or "F". They are fighting for that right because they are intersex or trans, but an identity card with one or two fields is not the place to explain, because biology is complex. For medical information, you read their medical charts or talk to the patient.
I'm not sure you fully understand the issue. This isn't merely about catering to a patient's preference to be addressed in a certain way. For some, the sex / gender assigned at birth is actually wrong, and continuing to carry that information serves no purpose but to cause harm.
What is the process for assigning gender at birth anyway? People look at the baby's genitals and make a guess. For 99% of babies, that heuristic works. But it turns out that some people are trans or intersex, and that wrong guess causes nothing but trouble.
Don't think that the assigned gender at birth is medically useful information, either. There are dozens of intersex conditions, and crudely categorizing people into two or three bins is too simplistic.
In short, it's complicated. The same solution is to trust that people are whatever gender they say they are, and if they need medical services, talk to them about what they need, instead of forcing them into a life course based on a genital inspection that happened years ago.
It's just the scented baby wipes that you're smelling. (At least it's cheaper than the Dior stuff.)
Could it be because among affluent, environmentally conscious consumers, it's no longer cool to be driving a car made by an unhinged right-wing narcissist?
Or could it be a consequence of dumping shares to fund a megalomaniacal need to own a social media platform?
