Exactly this. I’m not going to sell my model 3 - I already paid for it, and I do like it - but I’ll certainly be looking elsewhere when I need to replace it if Musk is still associated with Tesla.
With other manufacturers adopting NACS, the biggest advantage of owning a Tesla has vanished.
What charges did the right-way driver get? Ultimately, this wouldn’t have happened if they were also driving the wrong way.
Oh sorry, I thought we were playing the “blame everyone but the police” game.
I forget the exact number, but it was the first few. Maybe 3?
One more problem was that the various milestones had projections for likelihood and time to completion, but what they presented to the shareholders was different than their internal projections.
So not only did they think some of these milestones were likely, they lied to shareholders about how likely they were to make the package seem more difficult to achieve.
It can be hard to separate art from artist, but just keep in mind that you’ve already paid for those books. He isn’t getting more money from you just rereading them, and nothing changes if you continue to enjoy the books.
Most people don’t “back” Trudeau. We tolerate him because the likely alternative is so much worse.
That’s the thing though. The people flying the duck Trudeau flags don’t understand that we don’t have unwavering loyalty to the party. They don’t understand nuance. And it’s going to destroy Canada during the next election.
Don’t feel too bad. I’m sure that the Chinese 6 year old who made your product didn’t try very hard and was punished appropriately.
Why can’t a country (or city, or anythung) choose what others call them?
We call it Timor Leste instead of East Timor. We call it Cote d’Ivoire instead of Ivory Coast. We call it Kyiv instead of Kiev. We call it Russia instead of USSR. All of these are names chosen within the last 50 years or so.
A lot of the “traditional” names are just historical holdovers from a very long time ago. If we encountered them for the first time today, we probably would use their chosen name. If tomorrow they said they wanted to be referred to as Deutschland or Nippon, we’d probably accept that and start calling them by those names.
So the only difference is that if you survive your encounter with the police you can get some taxpayer money?
I think people would be more upset about a secret foreign police force if they had any sort of faith in the non-secret local police.
We had a drone scare in a town near where I live. It was dropping a “mysterious substance” on cars and houses. Turns out it was just a heron pooping on things.
Now, there are photos of the NJ drone, so I’m more inclined to believe this is actually a drone, but even still, consumer drones are getting better and cheaper. This could easily just be a teenager having fun.
Can I ask which province you live in? In my experience (Southern Ontario, not GTA) local meat is not cheaper (though it’s definitely better quality). Same with locally milled flour and locally grown produce (when in season).
I have tried to support local (and sometimes still do, despite the cost) but I just don’t understand how labour costs in Ontario can be so much higher than labor + shipping for produce from California or Florida or Mexico.
Is it just a bigger markup because there are enough people who are hardcore about buying local here? Is there another factor I’m ignoring?
aside from ensuring the fundamentals are in place of affordable accessible homes, is there really any realistic way of nullifying that advantage and is it even right to do so?
I don’t think that’s an aside, I think that’s the key to solving a lot of problems with our current society. Give everyone a roof and enough nutritious food, and most people can figure out how to live their lives from there. The problem is that the lack of housing and food options forces people into low paying jobs with no upward mobility, and continues the cycle of poverty.
If only there were some sort of article attached to the title that contained quotes and statistics to answer your question. I guess it will forever remain a mystery.
If pp cares so much, he can get the security clearance and look at the list himself.
The “big five” banks in the states actually represent less than half the American population, whereas the major banks in Canada cover about 85% of us. (Note these numbers are from before the pandemic - I’m no longer involved in the banking industry.)
The US system is still incredibly fragmented, though a lot of consolidation is happening (yay oligopolies). Canada, on the other hand, has had stricter regulations for longer, which meant that even the 15% of Canadians with small banks and credit unions were included in the changes to the industry as they happened.
Best we can do is cap raises at 1% per year.
