I mean, they’re offering a 1 year fixed rate bond and paying 6.71% interest, no wonder they went bust 🤭

Paying a couple of five or six figure sums to continue advertising on X, versus paying millions to fight a protracted legal battle - I know which option the shareholders of those companies will be pushing for.

Trump is putting tariffs on things Americans buy from overseas that he believes should be made in America. The gamble is that companies that makes those products will choose to open factories/production in the US in response to the tariffs, which will create new jobs and growth in the country.

In comparison, retaliatory tariffs suggested by Trudeau and Sheinbaum are going to impact high demand goods that Americans import that would be very difficult to source in the US (or elsewhere in the world) in the short term. There is unlikely to be significant impact to the Canadian or Mexican economies because Americans must purchase those items and absorb the extra costs.

An example is cars, which can move back and forth across the border many times during assembly. Car manufacturers must simply absorb those extra costs due to the tariffs now.

great for him

I’ve not seen this level of failure to deliver since the amazon guy threw my package over the wrong fence and into a neighbour’s pool two blocks away.

Our climate is changing and we need research like this to ensure that we can still grow food productively in regions where weather is causing crops to fail.

the other lines are from the same game. lazy.

Actually Ovo energy is trying to do that - they estimate a reduction in your energy bills based on installing an energy efficient system like solar, heat pump, loft insulation, etc. Then they carry out the work and you pay it off gradually through your energy bills.

The challenge I think is then if you want to leave them then you have to either repay that debt or the next energy company has to assume it. There’s a few ways it could be abused and of course the savings take years or even decades to pay off, so there’s a few kinks to work out.

I hope they manage to get it working though, it will be big for UK customers.

I feel like capitalists are waiting on some magic solution like some chemical we spray into the air or a miracle new fuel source.

The established suggestions from scientists (“fly less, stop buying SUVs/Trucks, eat less meat, consider a heat pump and solar panels” etc) doesn’t support the narrative that we can continue unabated infinite growth with no consequences.

reminder if there is no clear winner then congress votes on who should be president with each state getting one vote. every state counts.

imagine the resources needed to pull something like this

quite aside from the question of how you hack thousands of pagers to make them explode, what are we carrying around in our daily lives that are one internet command away from blowing up?

I think it’s going to be a spectacular year for employment lawyers.

You get a qualified tradesperson to wire it properly into your electrical distribution.

Hey when you have dual citizenship then it’s legal for one country to revoke that citizenship.

IMO yes, but true of men too. If someone is interested in dating then they are on one or more dating apps or sites, and that is the safe front door they have created to date on their terms.

Russia needs to cede that territory in the interests of peace.
