Pay off my car or put it into my mortgage and live like I didn’t get 40k. The remaining 10k I would split among my 3 kids. They deserve something nice.

Honest question, if the movie reappears in the catalog on Google does the “ownership” return to the customer? My money is on no they would have to repurchase

I love being in Canada and they routinely use terms like “clean natural gas”. Like wut?

I would argue a good 99% of what we experience in life should be opt-in and yet here we are. Use of AI, companies getting our data, etc is all opt-out meanwhile organ donation is opt-in. Wtf.

I meant the true and proper SWIFT that is used by almost all financial institutions for transferring funds.

SWIFT is the easy one. Fun fact they looked into blockchain at one point and went “yeah, nah”

2 and 3 are the same and you’re deluded if you think otherwise

Look into the hidden cost of being poor. I was indeed factoring in this.

The point I’m making is people without money do not have an extra 10k to put in a car even if the lifetime cost is less due to other reasons.

This is also why rich people buy good shoes and they last for a few years. Poor people pay more but buy cheap shoes which have to be replaced yearly.

So I stand by what I say. The actual sticker price of that electric car needs to be the same or less than a petrol car for it to receive mass adoption.

The economy has not been good since the 70’s and I wish economists would collectively pull their heads out of their asses and stop towing the line of the ones in charge.

What you or I experience is completely decoupled from the stock market, or the GDP, and has been forever.

Um you realize a T1D can’t produce insulin right?

I implore young people to get into ai resistant fields and push for a return to basics and inefficiency.

I’m almost 49 and my exit plan from my corporate job is to have a small farm just big enough that it can be run simply with man power alone and then market to a premium.

Humans are not meant to be machines. Inefficiency needs to be valued more than it is.

I just looked in Canada

2024 sonata. 28k

2024 IONIQ 6. 39k

I’m sorry I’m not paying over 10k more for an electric car that’s absolutely insane.

Nothing changes until the price of an electric car is less than the cost of a gas one when it comes to the vehicle cost.

A Hyundai Sonata is 35k CAD

A Hyundai IONIQ 6 is 55k CAD

Miss me with that bullshit.

How do you stop the politicization of technology in the classroom when the policies of schools are so heavily influenced by politicians?

We have this problem in Canada too.

I grew up in a society where the truth and data were what drove our learning. That got thrown out the window in Ontario about 10 years ago.

Oh sweet Jesus a few things.

1. A child is allowed to enjoy waffles and syrup once in a while.
2. I have more rules in my house than she does in hers
3. You’re completely talking out of your ass making assumptions off of a single Lemmy comment.

Jesus Christ talk about taking a comment from 0 to 100. Do you feel better driving the car off the edge of reason?

Listen do you say Dollars 300 ($300) or do you say 300 Dollars (300$)?

I rest my case lol

More patient than me. I just got the divorce and now my ex and I are both happier.

Man I remember telling her one day when she came downstairs and I was feeding our newly diabetic son pancakes with syrup for breakfast and hearing “what are you doing? His blood sugar will go high?”. I stopped told her we would give him more insulin and then gave up and told here it was why I asked for a divorce. At no point was there a good morning. It was right into what I was doing and how it was wrong. God forbid we parent different.

Long story short I’ve put a lot of work in with the kids and they have every other week with me and I am doing my best to correct the issues created from our 10 years of marriage. Is she aware? I don’t think so. Even when she has the kids they still come to my house and I still have them for sleepovers. They don’t do the same with her.

In a way I feel sad for her.

It’s so fucking annoying too

There should be 2 pink keys no?

It’s like a badge of honour in any community that a mod/developer/etc can ban you from their community just for having an opinion.

I stand by what I say the people in charge in a majority of these places are snowflakes.
