Numberone

So hot, equally baffled.

Yeah maybe the problem is no one is describing what "work" means in this case. The goal is to reduce Chinese market share in the US EV market, protection of US industry ( lets be honest, probably the owners' income stream). I don't see that goal failing being likely.

See this makes sense to me. In good faith I don't understand how tariffs couldn't work. I mean, even if it doesn't STOP import of Chinese EV's, the uptake would be so much less than if they were 50% off....right?

History is rife with examples of countries developing their own industries by making imports more expensive.

This is why we can't have nice things😂

Signal no longer requires a phone number. You can now create an account. Not sure if that helps your outlook on it, but yeah. It was a fairly recent update that this was rolled out.

Edit: being told we still do need numbers to register. I haven't gotten a new phone since well before the change was made, so I haven't actually created an account and gone through the process. It looks like I misinterpreted what was going on when I read the changelog.

Ha...guess I'm the asshole. But I still hate teams alright!

I've had to repeatedly switcho "new teams". The selection isn't sticky for some reason. It seems like it shouldn't be that hard to develope a messaging app that does file transfers and meetings but apparently this bloated pile of horseshit proves reason wrong. A second long delay when changing threads? "You'll use it because corporate says you will...and you'll LOVE IT".

At least in the case of Gaza the US are literally funding it to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars. Unless there's some mystical magical procedure I'm not aware of, Biden could veto anything that supports Israel that comes out of Congress. A literal unused one person choke point that keeps passing weapons to Israel. The frustrating thing about Gaza is how simple it would be to stop it. Stop the flow of weapons. The US has threatened it before, and gotten results.

Please stop pretending the US can't wield power that isn't an invasion force.

Yeah, this article is also about funding...sooooo....

You do you, but I suspect you're on the wrong side of history. If not...we deserve what we'll get.

Majority ru...oh, never mind

And now you know something about me😋

Added, sorry for the delay.
