@SawyerMerritt I love not having $car payments. When I had payments they were less!

Former Goldman Sachs CEO tonight on EVs with Bill Maher:
Bill: "Once you have one (EV) it seems barbaric to go to a gas station."
Lloyd: "I want to get into a car, know I can drive 300 miles and don't have to have my fingers crossed that I can recharge it and don't have it take 2 hours."
Bill: "Lloyd, mine goes 360 (miles)."

@lakshyalark i have a 8gb windows laptop. it’s fine. but i wouldn’t buy one today for the next 5 years!
English

@WorkaholicDavid @jmwilt21 That's irrelevant. Nobody buys 8G Win laptops for 599. Those are 300-500. For 599, you got 16G RAM and 512G storage.

I think I'm a little less impressed with the new MacBook Neo than a lot of people are.
The $600 model comes with 256gb. That's not enough for people buying a laptop to use for several years, especially students.
So you upgrade to 512gb, but now the price is $700. Not terrible, but the kicker is that you still only get 8gb of ram.
The A18 Pro is a fine chip. I believe it will give similar performance to M1, maybe slightly better even. But we all know 8gb ram MacBooks have not aged well. Even for the low price, we still need a level of future proofing that I don't think is happening here.
Makes much more sense to catch an M4, M3, or even M2 MacBook Air on sale for a similar price with 16gb ram.
I think if Apple simply put 12 or 16gb of ram it would have made a lot more sense.

@JamieMc46313002 @TPS_32Planner beer stores were never owned by the government
English

@TPS_32Planner Not too mention the partial privatization of Ontario Hydro and the sell out of The Beer Store outlets.
English

Public utilities and assets should never, ever be sold to private companies.
Biggest case-in-point in Ontario:
Highway 407 - billions in tolls collected by a private company, instead of the Government of Ontario, where it could have been used to fund many public programs.

England is the only country apart from Chile where water is owned by private companies for profit. Don't let Canada become the third!

@TheREALeataTREE @LukeMontalbano soccer for my son. $67 shoes and shin pads. both last a couple years!
English

@LukeMontalbano I have a theory that, for a number of reasons, the equipment cost differential most of all, Canadian parents are putting their kids in soccer leagues instead.
English

It’s becoming unaffordable for the average Canadian family. New skates alone cost hundreds of dollars added to all the other equipment and fees, which is making hockey a sport for the rich when it instead should be the great Canadian equalizer.

@epkaufm A 35 percent drop in minor hockey enrolment is a huge flashing red sign

Pierre Poilievre is rage bating again. Asylum seekers are not given “full free Canadian health care.”
They receive temporary, limited coverage for medically necessary services through a federal safety-net program while their claim is processed.

@EdanEdan @JimChuong I rented a place like that in that area in the 90s for 1500/month. Soucy’s been pretty steady

@JimChuong Maybe like today. But in 10-15 years how do you know what the rent will be Jim?

Young people in Ontario are already stretched thin and Doug Ford is making it worse.
He’s lifting the tuition freeze and cutting OSAP grants, forcing students to borrow more just to finish school.
You can’t build a strong economy on a generation buried in debt.
Take action at SaveOSAP.ca and join the thousands of Ontarians telling Doug Ford to reverse the cuts.

People should 100% be paid for their commute to work.
Getting to work is part of the job.
If you're going to force people to come to the office they should be compensated for it.

@SamHersh01 For work from home to be fair and equitable, their should be a pay reduction for stay homers, or an increase for Remainers; Childcare, transport costs etc. Also immediate dismissal, if found with more than one work from home gig.
