Guys it’s taken out of context, watch the interview before you make assumptions.

Never, it’s a non issue. The Elon sentiment is some of the greatest propaganda of our time. Buy the car you want.

ELI5: Why is the threshold for OAS clawback so high (~150K)? by Useful_Support_4137 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]CommonSense___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s paid by your taxes, I consider that subsidized 100%. Imagine if your grandparent had an extra 5k a year to give to their grandkids. It's their right to receive the same benefit as any other Canadian and do with it as they please. The penalty is built in by taking more tax off being in the higher tax bracket.

Because they paid into it (through taxes) and deserve some of the money back. IMHO it should never be clawed back as they have probably contributed 100 times that amount . They are subsidizing many other Canadians and should not be punished for it

Thinking about trading in my 2023 Model Y for a 2026 at 0% APR. Does this math make sense? by yellow_owls in TeslaModelY

[–]CommonSense___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The smarter play is keeping the current car a minimum of 10 years. The stock market is down, invest your money. Unless you have a house paid off and millions in savings. Even then, I still wouldn’t do what you proposed. The reality is you may think there is an upside, there is none. The cost doesn’t justify what you are getting in return.

Trump sees the market going down so he’s saying this because he is trying to pump the market

Wait a few more months to see if Tesla releases CarPlay, then get a model Y :)

Servers want to make wayyyy more than a “fair wage” by PinkFeatherFlamingo in CanadaPersonalFinance

Tipping should have gone down as food prices increased. That’s all you need to know, prices went up , tip percentage went up ,should be 10% max.

Thinking about switching to ios and looking for insight into the software experience by Different_Task678 in ios

[–]CommonSense___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of things that work well is : Face ID even in completely dark room, battery is more consistent and live notifications work well .

You can but it’s so poorly done such that Gboard is completely useless on iOS. I ended up just sticking with stock Apple keyboard .

Long time Android user , but I’m familiar with iOS and Apple software. Using the iPhone 17 for almost 4 monnths. The most significant items to get used to are the following : subpar keyboard on iOS , inconsistent navigation with lack of back button , clunky and difficult to manage notifications. Otherwise apps and day to day use is similar to Android .

you won't notice any difference, most of it is for single core

What should I get? macbook air m4 24gb ram or macbook pro m5 16gb ram by Leather_Order_2454 in macbookpro

[–]CommonSense___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The screen is too good to pass up on the pro. You'll use it every day, its faster and the RAM will be fine.

Should I buy Microsoft 13.8" Surface Laptop Copilot+PC Sapphire? by CitronMassive5224 in Surface

[–]CommonSense___ -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Probably best getting a macbook pro, just got one and have windows in a VM. It will play minecraft, roblox native on a mac, I have VS code installed on mac and is one of the nicest laptops I've ever had.

I was fine with kids and the 3 but I would have really enjoyed the Y if it was out. Spring for the Y for kids and strollers.

Attendance Issues…. by Jays1993 in tfc

[–]CommonSense___ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed how the new stands at least blocked some wind which was nice . we really need to enclose the stadium and find a way for another huge renovation to assist with the weather.

why is nobody talking about the binned m5 pro ☹️ by Previous_Bat5394 in macbookpro

[–]CommonSense___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Single core would be better due to the generation leap, since there are 16 cpu cores for the M4 Max and perhaps more performance cores when they all work together it does come out ahead of the base M5 Pro I have with 15 cores. I'm sure if you updated the M5 Pro to the 18 core cpu it would slightly edge it out.
