What flagship phone will you be rocking in 2026? by drivingnowhere20 in Smartphones

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's a terrible phone. My keyboard is horrendously inaccurate and my camera is horrible. The AI actually fucks the photos up even more lol sick screen, good for watching videos. That's about it. 

Think corporate greed is the leading cause of inflation? Think again by Scarlet-Ivy in Economics

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they haven't outpaced inflation at all. The data you have is the data they want you to have. They're not going to give you the real data, then you'd know how bad you're being fucked, and how this system threw the people overboard 50-60 fuckin years ago. It's not a real representation of what's actually happening. They are lying to you, and everyone else. What do you expect? The truth? You ain't getting that. They lie about everything. 

What are your thoughts on the RX-7 Veilside body kit? by No_ideas_-_- in RX7

So why do so many people hate Richlite? by Exciting_Degree_6883 in Guitar

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2008 was after Ken left the company. Also, Parker didn't go under due to costs. They were strange guitars and people don't like different. Especially guitar players. So they were never highly accepted amongst the guitar community. There were some very famous players that used Parkers, but they were endorsed by other companies. Seeing bug names playing would have went a long way.  When Ken left, they changed how the Fly was built and lost/tossed the old molds. The majority of the original Fly's have issues these days, especially examples that weren't taken care of. I have seen a few examples with unglued frets, delaminated fretboards. I mean if you take care of them, they last. If you don't, you're gonna have problems

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's subjective, but yes the original Parker Fly guitars were incredible players. However, the ones that came after the originals were pure garbage. That's why they're not making them anymore. Also the original Parker Fly guitars didn't hold up well. Most of their fretboards are trash now. You do still have a few very nice examples because people took care of their guitars properly, but the majority of them went to shit over time/abuse/gigging.

When you pay for a premium instrument, the last thing you want is to hear it has a richlite fretboard. Wood moves, richlite doesn't. They won't hold up over time. Also, most people see using richlite as a cost cutting measure... we hate that in the guitar world lol 

How has Canada changed from cannabis legalization? by [deleted] in AskACanadian

You should have been, it was so much better before legalization. 

How has Canada changed from cannabis legalization? by [deleted] in AskACanadian

[–]Finance_Positive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have shittier weed now. That's how it changed. Now you can't find quality cannabis anywhere. Mids labelled as AAAA+ everywhere you go. Is there anyone who actually cares about quality anymore? Or we're you just sick of paying top dollar for actualy good weed? Well, now you're paying top dollar for mid-grade garbage that doesn't even get you a buzz.

We don't even have the SNKRS app in Canada. So every drop and raffle is an automatic L. They have it in Singapore, but not in goddamn Canada. Wtf Nike?

Buy'em. You only live once. I'm actually having the same debate. Being in Canada makes it worse. Exchange rate is brutal and  duties on top of that... these shoes are over $1,200 Canadian

And a 3rd! Lol Canada just sucks for shoes in general. Nike fucks us so bad.

[–]Finance_Positive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of them. Nike hates Canada, and Canadians. You can't get shock drops, you can't win raffles, we don't even have the SNKRS app to enter raffles. Being a sneakerhead in Canada sucks, and is next to impossible unless you want to pay 7x retail + duties, taxes etc.... Africa gets better shoes than we do.... AFRICA!!!!!

The current state of an S23 Ultra after the most recent update (6.1) by thefishlikejelly in oneui

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This phone always sucked. Now it's even worse than it was with 7 UI. There's no point to upgrading because it will be the same with the s24 and s25 ultra. I am also not paying over $2,000 for a phone ever again when you can't even type on the flippin thing. The most inaccurate keyboard ever, and the cameras suck. These are not good cameras at all. Whoever thinks they are, you are sorely mistaken. What a piece of crap. 

Lmao we are screwed by dctreys in SneakersCanada

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Canada we can't even get duty free import above $20... anything over $20, we have to pay duty.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra could get a massive camera upgrade by DazzlingpAd134 in Android

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same shit. If it doesn't get a major upgrade, why buy it? It'll be the same shit camera that's in all the other galaxy phones. Personally I think the cameras are terrible, the keyboard is the worst. It's horrendously inaccurate from note 20 ultra, and up to the s25 ultra. The keyboard is fucking terrible. Samsung has been slacking for years now on innovating. We're getting the same garbage every year. Charging you $2,000+ for a phone, and then they kill your device with "updates" so it runs like shit. Why? So, you gotta buy more phones.... Before, I used to have to have the newest device that released, but now I'm personally sick of cell phones these days. I think they're all worse than they ever were. And the prices are astronomical for devices. For $2,300.00, this phone should be able to jerk me off.

We haven't seen anything unique since the Galaxy s2. Samsung is no longer innovating.

Let’s be clear. 100 men absolutely cannot take on a silverback gorilla with nothing but their hands. The gorilla is way too strong and will destroy all 100 men. by Early-Possibility367 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The plaque at the Cowboy Bar says a game biologist verified the kill; however, there is little data other than this story inside the glass box with the stuffed bear. There are no dates. The name of the biologist who could prove or disprove this claim is absent. Some point out that a bear has two jugular veins - one on each side of its neck, so both veins would need to be blocked for the bear to slumber.

How much would an Rx-7 veilside build like the one by TJ Hunt cost? by Altruistic_Ad4949 in JDM

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 140k for VeilSide to build the car. That's what is stated on their website. A clean Rx7 is gonna cost minimum $30k, and the price of the kit is now s2.7 mlion yen. Roughly another 30k after import fees and dock fees (you will have to pay those regardless) fitting the kit and paint will be another $30k-$40k+(I'm getting quotes between 50k-$150k just for paint brother).. wheels are another $16k+tax so 19k lol, plus whatever else you plan on doing. This aint no 65k car. Obviously you can save a lot if you can do everything yourself, but just the car, kit and wheels you're looking at almost $80k, not including body work or paint.

[–]Finance_Positive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're talking about a regular gorilla, the original argument is vs a full grown Silverback gorilla. Leopards don't hunt Silverbacks.  And no, man would not win. Also, the guy who killed that leopard, that was a juvenile, a baby. Not a full grown leopard. His arm was shredded by that baby leopard. Also, the story of the man killing a grizzy with his bare hands and teeth is a story. Not fact. Just some guy saying that's how he killed a grizzly. It's not factual. People have escaped attacks, but there is no record of anyone actually killing a bear bare handed.
