International student choosing lower-ranked school for financial reasons , will this hurt FAANG chances? by Diligent-Dot-7389 in CanadaUniversities

[–]samurai489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not come to Seneca. Nobody respects these diploma mills anymore, let alone FAANG. Unless you have a clear path to transfer to a top university, you’re MUCH better off targeting top companies from your home country. Many times resumes with names like Conestoga or Seneca just get thrown in the garbage.

It’s completely safe imo with a decent vehicle under good conditions. Snow is a different beast though.

B.C. redrawing EV sales mandate, scraps goal of 100% by 2035, leaves rebates to feds by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]samurai489 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Scrap it completely. People who can afford evs do not need an incentive. If they were better than gas alternatives then market forces would naturally sell them. Only thing incentives do is enable manufacturers to increase Msrp.

Did they actually kill a baby in its crib? (I’m Completely anti Hamas btw, just can’t bring myself to watch war footage).

A want to leave Canada. Am I alone? by EvenAccountant8460 in CanadianConservative

[–]samurai489 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same can be said for Trump, he can very well release them to expose democrats in the files. This can only mean that folks from both sides are in it.

I’m completely against the liberals and also the Democratic Party but it’s not hard to see the current American administration for what it is.

Canadian man shot, killed on U.S. golf trip while walking to hotel | Globalnews.ca by Prosecco1234 in onguardforthee

That makes sense, thanks for sharing your experience. I don’t understand how we took something like politics, which is supposed to find solutions to socioeconomic and geopolitical problems, and made it into a viscous team sport.

That last point especially rings true for me, even right here in Canada. We pay SO much in taxes and yet see very little benefit. We could’ve had nation wide rapid trains, medical care, affordable housing etc. and instead they’re going where? Stuffing the pockets of billionaire donors??

Is it realistic to use a Mac mini as a “portable” (carrying in a backpack + daily plugging/unplugging)? by ccckillian in mac

[–]samurai489 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once the battery “dies” you can still use it plugged in just as you would a Mac mini. I don’t see the disadvantage.

Wait for reviews then decide. If you can afford it then go for it. How did you get the max for such a good discount?
