We in germany call "w" we, as in west.
Only you english speakers could not grasp that the w is not a double v, which the romans used for u.
So for us, its wewewe(dot)whatev(dot)org
Yes, it sounds kinda like a car engine not starting.

Just EMP the whole freight compartment. Might zap a PS5 or a TV, but hey, thats what insurance is for.

So what you're saying is, its fine for a worker to be surveilled and harassed by customers?
Where do you work? How would you react if customers surveilled your every move and harrassed you because you took a leak or got a coffee instead of dedicating your every second to their task?
Yes, there are shitty moving companies. But oh my god, are there shitty customers!

Reply to comment by The_Illist_Physicist in Does the spinning of a bullet have any effect on its drag? by Eastern-Ability8411
There is another effect that can result in additional spin drag in the form of viscous drag.
Preamble: both bullets fly with the exact same speed and perfect orientation, so zero angle of attack.
As you elaborated, the viscous friction in the spinning case is higher. This can be additionally contributed by an earlier boundary transition from laminar to turbulent.
In the spinning case, the flow spirals around the bullet, effectively traveling a longer distance in the same amount of time. The relative velocity between surface and air is higher. This increases the Reynolds number, (rho * v * l_ref / eta; rho, l_ref & eta are constant between the cases) possibly leading to earlier laminar-turbulent transition. Also, the flow distance along the spiral is bigger, so there's more distance for the transition to happen. If it were to happen at the same run length of the boundary layer, due to the spiral the transition would effectively happen earlier along the bullet spin axis. And since turbulent boundary layers exert more drag than laminar ones, this can increase drag for the spinning bullet.
