That falls squarely under the "don't ask questions you don't want the answer to" category.

Nah, it won't piss off any of them. They'll do whatever mental gymnastics they have to keep their worldview intact.

"second fastest growing channel in cable television" eh? I guess that means they got one new viewer while everything else went negative.

Not sure what you're getting at here. A microcode exploit and open source software have nothing to do with each other.

I won't say "you couldn't pay me to drive one", but only because I'm honest enough with myself to admit that there is absolutely an amount that someone could pay me to drive one around. The number is very far from reasonable though.

Because eating the rich will accomplish nothing if you don't also change the underlying system that created them in the first place. And good luck getting everyone in the non-rich class to agree on what that change should look like.

That's fine. The courts will just toss it.

Might not. I assume there's some sort of penalty clause built into the contract, so there shouldn't be much to sue about unless Ford tries to find a way to not pay that penalty.

Since you can't use your mirror anyway, just adjust it so that it reflects back at them.

I saw one place that seemed to say that the address approval poll was among those who watched it. Could be that those who were likely to disapprove didn't watch it in the first place.

On that front, they pretty much already were doing that. The big battery plant in Windsor should be ready to start ramping up production later this year. There was a lot more, but most of it has been paused since Ford decided to delay EV production at Oakville.

The only difference is that "China bad America Good" has shifted to "China bad, America also bad". None of the issues people have with China have magically gone away.

Building cars is something we already do in Canada. And there's currently a lot of capacity coming online to build electric cars. Pretty much the entire car could be sourced from Canadian parts, including the batteries. I think semi-conductors are the only thing that doesn't have a domestic source right now.

So if I'm understanding correctly, once I get rich from winning the lottery, I should build myself a sleeper with a "Hideous and Horny Commune" bumper sticker on the back.

You'd have to declare it and pay any import taxes on it, same as you would have had to do before the tariffs.

Me too. I'm on the right side of the border and would happily order from this company if they sell something I need.

Probably making wearing any mask while protesting illegal, regardless of the legality of the protest itself.

Trump winning was the worst thing that could have happened to the Conservatives. Dealing with Trump's bullshit is the one thing that most people seem to agree that Trudeau and the Liberals handled well.

PP wanted his "carbon tax election", but just about no one is very concerned about that right now.
