Rivian will be bought by someone.

Yes, but would you put up with our snow? I hope your answer is yes, since it means more stuff for the Cybertruck to stomp over.

As a Canadian, Tesla (and pretty much everyone) tacks on 30-40% to vehicle prices. I have never expected the CT to be anything less than 6 digits. But don't cry for us northerners. We have Poutine and Healthcare.

OK, I just haven't seen it yet.

I neither believe or scoff at your account. I believe there is far more in the Universe we don't understand than what we do. However, I'm a scientist at heart and like to see evidence. There are now 4 or 5 billion cel phones in the world, and none have caught a UFO. Or Bigfoot. Or Nessy...

Opposition to public transport is one of those weird opinions I just don't understand, no matter what part of the political spectrum you've been indoctrinated to. I just don't get what would motivate you to spend money and time fighting it. Active transport - especially bike lane retrofits...

I conform to non-conforming.

People are going to agree or disagree on whether he's an issue based on whether they agree or disagree with the things he says. As such, this conversation will unfortunately go nowhere until it is sucked into the vortex of politics and the mods shut it down. I enjoy those political...

What she said. Auto loans are usually among the better rates you can have. Reducing any other debt, obviously, should be a priority, as should have money for a rainy day. With regards to investing, that's something really for you to decide. One thing I will say, is there are a lot of smart...

The title’s a bit misleading. They weren’t excluded from the program, they simply can’t be sold there, which is a whole other issue.

There's a really good quote in there with some polish, something like "we were given two ears to hear both sides before we speak". If I use it in a speech or negotiation, I will be sure to give you credit.

It's the internet. I read a recent opinion that humans are not so much motivated to be "moral", so much as fit in. As in, they accept as moral what the group they associate with views as moral or "the rules". It's an interesting perspective, and it helps to explain so many of the great...

It depends. I worked in politics for a decade. The activists at both ends of the spectrum really annoyed me and were impossible to deal with. They were never happy. They are also often idiots and/or zealots, blindly following ideology. I've had to argue with a group of right-wing nuts (who...

It's interesting that you feel the difficult path is the seductive one. Going against the grain and prevailing power and opinion is not the easy path.

haha, I don't think he cares about being worshiped. He has certain things that he views are vital, free speech being one. Some don't like that, but I think he's on the right (no pun intended) side of history there.

He's not a hero now?

It's great that you can list all of the flaws of those that are different than you. Now, can you list all of the flaws of those who are the same as you? If you can do that, the healing of the nation can begin.

So no real examples then. I was just curious, as I like to learn about perspectives. I generally see both sides blaming and bashing excessively these days.

Regulations kicked in July 1 2021 that banned some top tier desktop gaming PC's like Alienware's Aurora R10 and R12. AW adapted and you can buy the latest models (R13 and 14), but there's talk of taking further steps. I find that nuts and regulation overload. I will apologize for the...

High end gaming PC's were banned in California. Coming from a Canadian, where we are significantly more "socialist", that's nuts.
