2027 is a sunrise date, meaning retailers are expected to have updated their checkouts to support scanning the 2D Barcodes.
Industry has set a date to make the transition to accepting 2D barcodes at point-of-sale (POS) or point-of-care (POC) — referred to as Sunrise 2027. By the end of 2027, retailers would need to ensure their POS systems are equipped with scanners capable of reading both traditional barcodes and 2D barcodes. The shift has already begun with the new technology being tested in 48 countries across the world, representing 88% of the world’s GDP.

GS1 call it 2D Barcode. It’s a QR code that embeds a GTIN https://www.gs1.org/industries/retail/2D-barcodes

It seems a cool trick. Why don’t they all do it instead of having it banned?
The charges this guy is facing are insane.
Ah, the 3DO. So much hype from Trip Hawkins.
Me too. I was about to post the same image.

The more pressure max is put under by not having the best car, the more petulance we will hear on the radio from him. And their relationship will start to break down.

The media? This is Verstappen’s direct quote when asked about Marko:
"My loyalty to him is very big, and also I have always expressed this to everyone within the team, everyone high up, that he is an important part in my decision making for all the time in the future as well within the team.
