Better for everyone. Some people mistake noticing the colour as hard to see but our pupils stay dilated with warm colours. Hence why red light is common with outdoorsy folks. All these new cool temp lights should have never been allowed. The older warm colours were fine even on big transport trucks.

Nah, it’s everybody. There is almost always a white SUV 4ft off the back of a bumper in Canada. Tailgating and colour temperature are the biggest problems here. Probably followed by aftermarket bulbs and lifted vehicles not aiming their lights. And stock Hyundai’s for some reason.

Sir, it’s the year 2026.

Everything about a Tesla interior is cost-savings masquerading as innovation. Actually most of these touch screen focused modern cars. It’s cheaper to produce than tactile buttons.

This entire thread is about Russia’s war of conquest against Ukraine. 🤦‍♂️

[-] BigJohnnyHines@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 days ago

That’s obviously not true in the modern era. The vast majority of governments do not initiate wars of conquest and have not in decades.

Correct. That’s how boycotts work. The people of Russia should increase pressure on their government if they don’t like current outcomes. Nobody is blaming them personally but putting any money into that economy ends up killing innocent people in Ukraine.

People are naive to think there aren’t also thousands of bots here in the Fediverse.

Why is it that left leaning voices want everyone involved in jail and right leaning voices keep saying it didn’t happen?

[-] BigJohnnyHines@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago

Probably earth honestly.

Normal people fantasize about winning the lottery and having a few million mostly so that they can stop participating in the rat race, quit their job, have more time for creativity, have more time for family, have more time to be human. The fact that these people blow past that, and continue to want to hoard wealth shows how sick they actually are. If they were hoarding literally anything else nobody would question it. They do not work harder than everyone else.

The full quote gives a different impression.

"You've said that Canada will not participate in US military action in Iran. So can you definitively say that will remain the case, even if hostilities broaden, escalate or are prolonged?"

"You've asked a fundamental hypothetical in a conflict that can spread very broadly, todays events or recent events point to that, so one can never categorically rule out participation, we will stand by our allies when it makes sense. There's a distinction between the offensive actions that were taken and are being taken by the United States and Israel, that were taken by them without consultation with Canada or with other allies, and we are not party to those actions. But we will always defend Canadians, we will always defend and stand by our allies when called upon"

It’s rare enough for politicians to even give context to their statements and then when they do it gets clipped and simplified into a different meaning. Aljazeera should know better which is pretty disappointing.

Also, most of you just read headlines which doesn’t do you any favours. There are real things to criticize about Carney, these sort of qualified statements shouldn’t be one of them. If all we do is look for binary no-context answers from our representatives, we’re already doomed.
