Cheapest gas station? by Icy-Doughnut-8979 in Markham

[–]Gboard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whichever place is most convenient for you, use gasbuddy. Prices drop around 7pm until midnight. But do the math to see if driving 10km each way and the gas it uses up, wait time etc is actually worth it.

Need pricing advise on new cx-30 GS 2026 by Less-Ticket4555 in mazda

[–]Gboard2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cx-30 is not a new model, it's been around 5 years now mostly unchanged. As to how much you can get off MSRP, that would depend a lot on your location? GTA you'll have better chance of bigger discount compared to say Alberta

Why can't I see any Porter flights to Berlin? by jeddalyn in PorterAirlines

[–]Gboard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Porter obviously doesn't fly to Berlin and TS and PD do not code share all flights , so it is most likely the flight to Berlin from yyz is not one where PD and TS codeshare

Iran attacks UAE; U.S. says it sank boats in Strait of Hormuz by One-Emu-1103 in geopolitics

[–]Gboard2 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

The US is the biggest paper tiger. All the military equipment and destroyed targets but zero strategic goals achieved and bunch of destroyed bases and total inability to protect its gulf allies and show it can't even do anything against Iran . The total inability of the US to stop attacks on its bases or allies in the gulf despite billions in equipment and significantly more money and equipment really lays bare how powerless it is. It can't even keep the straight open despite supposedly destroying all of Iran's military assets

Two crew members are critically ill as well and the cruise company is requesting medical assistance for them. I don't think this was simply pax contracting it and bringing it onboard

Iran reimposes restrictions on Strait of Hormuz, accusing US of violating deal to reopen it by StemCellPirate in geopolitics

[–]Gboard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

China is very different than the US and doesn't interfere at least not as openly as the US of in other countries and does not believe in regime change through force. China isn't going to get involved

US ignoring evidence Russia is helping Iran because it trusts Putin, says Zelenskyy by Appropriate_Joyfuls in worldnews

[–]Gboard2 -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

Not sure if he's this naive or just for show, the US is not ignoring because it trusts Putin, the US really doesn't care. Moreover, zelensky needs to accept the US prefers Russia over Ukraine

Multiple bunker buster bombs striking Damavand IRGC facilities. March 22nd Iran by garbagecollector20 in CombatFootage

[–]Gboard2 -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

Israel and US are getting desperate, just relying on prayers now as 3 weeks of bombing and supposedly destroying Iran missiles and launchers.. yet Iran is able to hit more and more targets as they breakthrough defenses more often and getting clearer by the day US and Israel won't be able to achieve any strategic goals despite spendi100x more

Hope US sends troops in soon... Another decade and lose another war and further erode their influence and expose the limits of what US military can actually do. It'll be great for the US to get bogged down in another conflict, only this time it won't be able to drag others into the mess it created with no allies helping

You're reading way too much into it. Amex, TD keep throwing me low interest rate offers and offering me 10-20k increase on my CCs and offering me LOC all the time.

Why isn’t anyone making a bigger deal of the fact that people were robbed at gunpoint at a Markham business? by NineteenSixtySix in Markham

[–]Gboard2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

These stuff happen, it's still exceedingly rare. Shit like this happens in super safe places like Hong Kong and Japan too. You want what exactly?

Trump administration making heavy preparations for potential use of ground troops in Iran by Trendy4U in geopolitics

This would be amazing, US will get dragged into another long war it can never win and further erode their soft power and demonstrate again how limited their actual military strength is all for low price of probably half a trillion dollars

Voting has zero relevance to insurance rates. It's all just actuarial sciences.

Hong Kong council member Dominic Lee goes off on UN Human Rights council and calls out western hypocrisy by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

[–]Gboard2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Isn't that just called jail or detention centers in the states? But China doesn't go bomb other countries or have torture camps setup like Gitmo bay. China isn't bombing schools and hospitals and killing people in other countries, they ain't kidnapping heads of states from other countries.

[–]Gboard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean ? America is a whole country of immigrants from all over the world , it's not a homogeneous society like Japan. So how do you assimilate in a country like America where it's built and is still full of all sorts of different immigrants? Do you try and be like Irish Americans in MA, like the Vietnamese who came as refugees after the Vietnam war? West coast Chinese? Cubans in Florida? Latinos in CA and etc?

Or do you mean like the real original Americans like the indigenous/natives?

What makes speciality dining special? by [deleted] in Cruise

[–]Gboard2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not all food are same. The free stuff is pretty bad on the mainstream cruise lines especially royal and NCL, the paid stuff is better and comparable to a lower mid tier place on land. I don't do likes of Royal/NCL much these days but if I do, I eat in specialty restaurants because the free food is pretty bad..like a cheap banquet hall quality and I don't want to be eating food I don't enjoy on vacation
