How the turntables…

Turntables aside, this is how you get Chinese EVs without killing European auto labor and suffering all the downstream effects from that.

Good on you. 🙌

Ben-Gvir and Smotrich in heaven now.

In addition to what others have said, if you’d like to vote, register and vote. If you don’t want to be a member in general, cancel your membership after the leadership election is over.

Communist, Marxist, authoritarian, idiots, CCP (Chinese Community Party) puppets and other terms were trotted out with regular abandon. There was contempt for Starmer’s policies and worldview but most interestingly, there was a sense of pity for all the Britons they ran into.

These words they’re using, I don’t think they mean what they think they mean. 😂

Hasn’t done sieg heil in public yet. 😂

We might be better protected using EU services than Canadian. I mean commercial services and the regulations they have to adhere to. Non-profit run stuff like Lemmy.ca (Fedecan) is different.

Or Saudis?

I doubt longevity would be a problem. LinkGlide is supposed to be so much chunkier than Hyperglide that it should be incredibly durable. After all one of the purposes for it is to withstand electric mid drive torque. Those put torque similar to standing pedaling through the drivetrain on a regular basis.

Your analysis sounds correct. Replace the lubricant with light oil, not grease, for a test. If they still seize up, then it is likely material+tolerance (some parts are too close together and get pressed against each other due to differences in contraction with temperature decrease) that makes them seize and not the lubricant. If they don’t seize with the light oil, figure out what grease works in the cold.

How’s the Cues BTW?

Same. We gotta find per-riding data close to the election date. I’m in the 905 so the OLP is likely to be stronger contender in my riding but I’d like to know if that’s changed to ONDP.

That was a good reminder to renew my donation in LiberaPay.

I wish… Doesn’t seem likely but I’m hoping for knocking him down to minority government.

I’m counting on him calling an election being badly perceived. He’s not in the position Trudeau is. LPC is already at the bottom. The only way is up.

A chance to knock him down to a minority? Bring it on! He looks a bit unshakeable but we’ll try anyways.

I apologize for centrist-slandering you. 😂

People bash centrism because centrism has allowed ever increasing wealth inequality that’s creating the material conditions for the fascism we see descending around us. Centrism is unsustainable. Many of us have realized how the process works and why the downward spiral can only be reversed by moving away from centrism. I’m not here to argue or discuss so please don’t reply defending it, it’ll be waste of time. 🥹 I’m explaining why you see centrism bashing comics.

Yes. I don’t remember which instance did this but I remember I encountered it some time ago.

Can vouch for this. I learned a thing or two from people who had the patience to explain. Including some ML people. @[email protected] for example has nerves of steel. Permanent snark isn’t useful but it’s understandable, especially coming from people who are being actively harmed. Repeating the same things over and over without frustration isn’t something everyone can do.
