The bulk of which aren’t due to the Federal government, as in Canada the provision of healthcare services is the domain of the Provinces.

It’s notable that two of the Provinces with the worst problems are led by Conservative Premiers, who have been dismantling health care systems in their Province as a way to try to bring in more American-style private for-profit healthcare.

I still run a late 2007 15" MBP with 6GB of memory and OS X 10.11. Itâ(TM)s ok for web browsing, email and Office 2011 (yep, Office 365 donâ(TM)t really offer anything new). I used Lightroom 3 - 5 on it back in the day and VMWare Fusion running Windows 7.

Chrome is definitely a pig though. I havenâ(TM)t touched it with a barge pole for years, but my wife uses it on this Mac.

An irregularly shaped chunk of solid Inconel? Sure to tumble as it passes through the atmosphere? I don't think anyone who worked in high temperature industrial process was surprised by this; not sure what NASA was thinking.

And yet the SmartCar (the original one, not the SmartForTwo) was certified in the EU and uncertifiable in the US. We can argue all day as to whose safety and registration regulations are stronger or in some sense better (neither of which was part of my OP), but the fact is they are different. And the PRC EV manufactures have so far not see a positive return in meeting the US/Canada standards and entering the market.

Can a Chinese company come to the US and qualify for those credits? On the flip side, can an America business go to China and benefit from the state support there?

That goes two ways: that means I have every right to tell you how to live when later on my taxes that have been forcefully taken from me are paying for your health care and state pension. I donâ(TM)t think youâ(TM)d appreciate that though, would you?

So far the EV autos designed in the PRC have not attempted to meet US/Canada safety and regulatory certification standards. BYD has an engineering and manufacturing center in the US for their EV municipal vehicles so they could certify a car if they thought they had a market for it, but so far that doesn't seem to be the case. Perhaps the US EV makers could concentrate on making their products more price competitive and improving sales and service so they don't have to resort to a trade war to win the market?

To be replaced by other sources energy. Time to move that mindset on.

That's a symptom, not a cause. EVs are all newer and built with current technology; there are still many ICE vehicles in production based on 2005 designs, technology, and parts. As those age out of the production system - as they are doing now - they are being replaced by new designs (whether ICE, hybrid, or EV) that use extremely expensive and non-repairable modern technology and parts. Have a fender-bender in one of those, EV or ICE, and you will be hit with a $5000 repair bill. The days of "beat to fit; paint to match" are over.

TFA is about England, not the UK. 8.7% of England is developed: https://www.gov.uk/government/...

Surely banding in the resultant image means there was banding in the source image?

Not supporting HEIC/HEIF is a silly political decision at this point. All decent phones, not just iPhones, have been able to use HEIF for some time. Google even added HEVC support to Chrome some time ago too. The world hasnâ(TM)t ended.

Sounds like Microsoft during the Internet Explore 4-6 years. This is monopolistic behaviour, yet people keep up a fuss about Apple and want to give Google more free rein!

I don't give a fuck about other people

There, fixed it for you.

Thanks for sharing. This is strange list: it has some countries in there, but not some of the obvious ones like the US. Then I wonder if they are double counting, such as with Gazprom and the Russian Ferderation?
