The article doesn't really mention it, but it's also partly due to the OEMs cancelling a lot of new programs over the last year. Running existing equipment, which has already paid itself off, for a few extra years leads to slightly cheaper vehicles.
"International" person here. Obama was respected, even when we disagreed with his policies. Trump was widely ridiculed during his first term, and his voters have now been included in that ridicule for voting for him a second time. It's going to take generations (if It's possible at all) for the US to get back to the level of respect they commanded during the Obama years.
The only grammar thing that annoys the hell out of me is "on accident". No idea why, it just really sticks out and bugs me when I come across it. I rarely mention it when I see it though, because I know that noone actually cares.
Just like to point out for everyone else that, at least when it comes to Canada, the US vs China is a Last vs Second Last situation. Opinions on China haven't improved, the US has just fallen that far.
Why does it sound like you think "least worst" is synonymous with "good"? And you are also combining your opinion of the type of system with specific implementations of it. The two are related, but separate. For example, an autocrat can be a fantastic leader, and overall great for their country and everyone in it. That doesn't mean an autocratic government is a good system in the general sense.
I know this site is heavily weighted towards IT professionals and other pure-office-work type professions, but sometimes in office work really is better than work from home. Online meetings are largely useless, even when it's a proper meeting, not just a should-have-been-an-email meeting.
In my current job, remote work isn't an option, and I can't tell you how much time I've wasted trying to get engineers and software devs to understand things that would have taken two seconds to understand if they would go physically look at the thing. But of course, they can't do that because they are working remotely. Instead we get to waste half a day playing picture/video tag
The efficiency gains from an air source heat pumps are on the heating cycle, not the cooling cycle, since you are moving heat around instead of having to generate heat via combustion or big heating elements. When acting as an air conditioner, the efficiency is the same.
I feel as though the entire point of this was to make Canadians feel ashamed and discouraged on the day before our national holiday.And in that Trump was successful.
The fuck he was. I feel no shame, nor discouragement whatsoever.
All Trump "won" was getting Carney to scrap a policy that wasn't even in force yet, effectively gaining nothing. And there's nothing stopping us from just reimplementing the same policy under some other name that Trump's dumb ass won't even notice.
Doubtful on this one. Keeping the ban in place lets him play up the "belligerent everyman/Captain Canada" image him and his base love so very much. The flip flopping is reserved for shady deals for his developer buddies that he knew were wrong and was just hoping no one would notice.
So I checked Wikipedia, and the list of conflicts in the middle east in the years between 1300 to 1800 is far from empty. I know it's easier to blame everything on the US, but you are ignoring dozens of different conflicts that occurred during that span of years.
An actual historian can chime in if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure the middle east has had some sort of internal or external conflict going on for all of history. So the answer to your question is likely "still war".
Here's some more food for thought: what happens if they piss off the Eve players? Those clowns have basically been training themselves on how to come out on top in a no-hold-barred capitalist system.
