Why do they apparently still use cheques in 2026?

Because metal briefcases stuffed with unmarked bills is too cliche.

They are also very heavy.

$1000000 in $100 is 22 lbs.

The logistics alone make most heist movies improbable.

I guess I'm confused. You think ~20 lbs is unmanageably heavy for a million dollars?

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 3 points 2 days ago

Nobody in a heist is stealing just a million.

These heists are for hundreds of millions of dollars., and they're carrying it out in a duffel.
