As I understand it your correct. Parent comment is wrong on a lot of things.

The majority of Canadian media is right leaning. And not sure why you seem so set on blaming the liberals and JT because basically nothing changed when JT took power except a different set/type of scandals and legal weed.

The problem is the older, senile or tech illiterate folk who can be coached into disable the blocks and installing spyware. You don't like it buy an android its literally that easy to avoid if you want the freedom.

that doesn't help the tech illiterate or senile parents who can be coached into disabling it to install spyware. And right now you can just not buy an apple device and have your choice while the rest of us can continue buying apple for

young children don't know any better. hell many teens don't. older people get dementia and go senile. Not everyone is tech savvy. And selfishly I don't want to have to continually be on guard with my phone and worry about &qu

There are other (better) but more expensive ways to prevent damage to the motor. The plastic gear in a mixer is the cheapest way to solve the problem while also ensuring the device wears out fairly quick compared to a better built unit. It’

I’m kitting out my truck with solar and batteries now that starlink has roaming and rv pricing so I can literally drive up mountains and camp by glacier lakes while working.

Might as well be when they basically match each other’s prices. We have three telecom companies for mobile so “competition” - but they don’t compete abs our mobile prices are the worst

This is my point - people are dying. Lots of people. Children. And your response is “we’ve made enough compromises NO MORE! Let them continue to die” because your gun is more important then 100s of children's lives each year.

I never said outlaw, I said compromise. Are school speed zones not a thing in America? Child seats? Speed limits? Cross walks? School crossing guards? All the other steps taken to make cars and the roads around schools and playgrounds safer

until randomly without warning the latest version is broken, removes something, deprecates something, or is incompatible with something else. "always up to date" is something that sounds great but in practice has many many pitfall

Scared of guns or not, they seem to be willing to put "guns" before lives. children's lives. Unwilling to make even the smallest compromise to prevent mass shootings like so many other countries have.

Here in Canada it’s crazy to hear about all the different apps and challenges in the states given we’ve had etransfer (email money to anyone it Canada from your bank) for nearly 20? years now I think. It just works.

Threatening with conventional arms is not the same as threatening to use nuclear arms. Many countries threaten to use their military - yet Russia is going as far to threaten the offensive use of nukes. I’m discussing the reality of now not

Manuals have an advantage in some situations (off roading, transmission doesn’t overheat, better performance with skill, repairability) and autos have theirs (easy, better fuel economy) If I commuted to an office every day I’d get an auto (

We’ll car companies are making it harder and harder to buy manuals so of course it’s disappearing. Can’t speak to American brands but the Toyota 4Runner stopped making a manual trim 20 years ago and the Tacoma while it has one, only 5% of t
