There are a few phones that still do a headphone jack and expandable storage but they definitely aren’t the big flagship brands if that’s what you are looking for.
Heck, Moondrop a predominantly audio gear manufacturer, just launched a phone specifically for audiophiles and it has a 3.5mm/4.4mm headphone jack combo. I don’t think its quite as modern in the other aspects but hey, it has the unicorn features we don’t see nearly as often!
Probably closer to renting the OS lol
Crazy how the standard of living drops when people get priced out of it
Every time I bring up transit/rail here, everyone gets so pessimistic about it. Having the option to take rail is so underrated and I don’t think anyone really understands the potential. The excuse usually is “no one will use it” and “no one wants to pay for that, where will the funding come from? My taxes”.
We won’t know until we actually try. To me there is no point to ask “what if?” And then snuff things out in protest. I really want to see some change to public transport and something like this could be the start.
So does something like this affect the value of the dollar at all? Not familiar with the cause and effect here!
Our oil and gas is controlled by a cartel (OPEC)! I think there was an example for our milk or bread in particular as well.
I’m surprised this number isn’t lower than half already. I figured by now, any shows airing regularly could simply be streamed right from the source rather than waiting for a timeslot and ads.
Or is there a reason to keep using cable over streaming?
Not sure about the 30 year amortization but adding more RRSP contribution potential sounds like you are making home buying easier for the people who already have extra money.
Like was that extra 25k stopping anyone from putting a down payment on a home? If someone is able to save at least 35k let alone 60k in an rrsp, I don’t think the housing market is out of reach. It’s out of reach for the people who are being priced out of renting, eating well, and just living in general.
That is a hilariously short article.
There has to be some sort of incentive either for smaller cars or against larger cars. Currently you can go into a dealer, tell them you want the biggest baddest truck/SUV that they have, and buy it all while having a normal license.
You’d only be paying a slight premium on whatever road or fuel tax if that while having the benefit of not getting destroyed in a car accident. As it stands, there is little reason to buy a larger vehicle unless you actually don’t like driving a car that big.
Really is horrific seeing the government pull these shenanigans with little to no repercussions. Our next election can’t come fast enough
217 shots, my guy went straight for that 6G.
Explains why EV’s are so popular in Quebec. Any reason why electricity is so cheap there?
Another hit to the benefits of driving electric. It was making so much sense to own an EV for me 3 years ago. Gas was expensive, our electricity was super cheap, and little maintenance.
Now, every year since we ordered, something new has come up to make it less appealing. No more tax credits, electric had it’s price cap removed, now this road tax is going to be another cost. It’s getting to a point where it’s cheaper to just buy a gas car again and suck it up.
Really appreciate the breakdown of the article in the comments OP. Cool to see some new math I’ve never heard of!
Is there any rules against living in your office rental? In my mind, there’s always furniture to some degree in an office that can be slept on. You could probably get a shower and a change room installed. Most usually have a crude kitchen of sorts.
Unless someone comes in after hours and sees you snoozing, I think it’d be easy to keep up appearances.
