Agree with you 101% on the dealer buying experience. Even just doing some shopping/research these days has left a sour taste in my mouth for buying another vehicle that way. That being said, Ford has announced they're splitting th

As an avid traveler, I disagree with your assessment. Yes, there are definitely things that are very similar in all places, particularly as western companies take over the world (much to my disappointment). However, if you get away from th

Ownership is a valid point. I'm not arguing either course, I'd like to see the ability to be able to install Apps myself just as I do on a Mac or PC mostly because I'm tired of the forced puritism of companies these days.

I'm wondering how this will eventually play out if most companies start requiring Apple/Google to allow third-party apps to use their own payment system. The commission fee that Apple charges, 30% is partially to cover operating&#

All section 230 does is to protect companies from being sued for what their users posted on their service, with a couple of exceptions, ie copyright materials and Sex trafficking. That’s essentially it. It does not “give” companies the abil
