I thought they’d already released FrostPunk?

As an atheist I believe Jesus existed, I just don’t think he was the son of god or that he was resurrected.

It would have been far easier to start a religion around a real man with actual followers than if he was a figment of someone’s imagination.

It’s ridiculous. We are absolutely in the drivers seat to be a world leader in renewable energy and out of touch politicians want us to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in nuclear power stations like it’s the 1950s and we don’t have any other alternative.

Like every other government project there will a cost blowout, and it will overrun so by 2040 we’ll have a handful of half built nuclear reactors and the budget will be a couple hundred billion in the red.

We don’t have the expertise to build or run nuclear power stations, so we would have to import all of that knowledge and expertise until we can skill up. More money.

We have the landmass and the coastline to support solar, wind and wave generation. It will be far less complex, cheaper to build/maintain, we’ll be able to diversify energy sources and there is no toxic byproduct.

The Liberals fucked the NBN, fingers crossed they don’t fuck our energy future as well.

Because he doesn't care about religion, he’s just using them to get what he wants.

Toyota has the largest stake in Subaru, so your down to Honda.

We can all throw shit at Reddit together.

He’s old, he probably doesn’t remember what he had for lunch and is likely easily influenced by his staff to say or sign whatever they tell him. The problem is, by the time we get to the election his geriatric presidency will end with Trump winning, which will be bad for everyone.

While I’m an atheist, Trump’s potential second presidency has book of revelations vibes to it.

Sure, I went for the economic impact option, but causing chaos is certainly another way they could go.

While I’m sure there are financial motives behind this that are backed by the US car industry, it also makes sense if you anticipate a war with China sometime in the future. You don’t really want a large proportion of your population driving cars manufactured by the enemy that can be switched off remotely.

I’ve got an iPhone 13.

I used to upgrade about every 2 years because that’s how long my contract was and there was usually some killer feature I wanted. Now, new releases only have incremental improvements so I’m not in any hurry to buy a new phone.

I’ll probably keep this phone for another year or 2 as there is nothing wrong with it, even the battery life is still great.

So I’d say iPhone sales are “collapsing” because of a lack of innovation in the market, cost of living pressures, and handset durability, they just last longer.
