  1. You crack me up "BEIJING, April 2 (Reuters) - BYD, China's biggest electric vehicle (EV) maker, reported first quarter 2024 sales fell 43% compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, handing back the title of world's biggest EV seller to Tesla after winning it last year." BYD hands back top EV seller title to Tesla after Q1 sales decline | Reuters
  2. But the question was how Clarence Thomas is directly benefiting from his judicial decisions. If you don't know, just say you don't know, don't just keep saying it.
  3. No one doubts the rich are getting richer, and Democrats have become the party of the rich.
  4. Nice try! 😉 Interest rates were raised in an attempt to curb inflation, not to slow employment growth.
  5. Too many variables, from "free" when all they have to do is tighten a connection, to a several hundred to re-sweat a connection to a thousand or more to remove and repair a copper coil. Not including the initial service charge, and topping/refilling the gas. I wonder why people don't ask them to. A lot of people think the gas is some kind of consumable and just ask them to top it off. A lot of service guys do not actually do repairs, they do flat-rate services in a competitive market with no customer loyalty and most everyone wanting the cheapest possible service. What do you think the margin is for a guy with a truck, tools, a pressure washer and a second-man cleaning air conditioners for 500 a pop? If your car is not running, do you take it to the carwash to have them fix it? For repairs, the customer also almost always wants a price before the tech knows where the leak is, which the tech cannot provide, or if they do provide a quote, they have to quote it high. And then the customer thinks they're getting robbed when all the guy does is get his sniffer out of the truck, find the leak and tighten up a fitting or two. Buy your air conditioners from an authorized supplier that is close to your home and that also does service. Quit worrying about a few hundred baht here and there and give them your business.
  6. I thought you wanted to send Ugandan gays to the US, sorry, my bad.
  7. Leaks at the connections are generally pretty easy to fix. Leaks on a copper coil are more difficult, but fixable. Leaks on an aluminum coil are fixable, but so problematic that with a home unit, you are better off replacing it.
  8. If the power button on the remote turns off the condenser but not the evaporator?
  9. Many states in the US have the death penalty for gays as well, correct?
  10. Trump is alleged to have broken, you sound like the judge. So now you admit you don't know what the charges, you were just pretending to know, that's what I thought.
  11. And Timex outsells Rolex...
  12. "Over the year as a whole Elon Musk's Tesla (TSLA) still outpaced BYD, selling 1.8 million electric cars. BYD sold 1.57 million electric vehicles, up 73% on 2022, as well as 1.44 million hybrids." China’s BYD is selling more electric cars than Tesla | CNN Business
  13. Incidentally, did the price of electricity not go from 3.99 to 4.18, a full 5% in January? Much better than the17% increase to 4.68 initially proposed. No doubt prices will come down as demand increases. Just sayin'
  14. Yeah, the fuel cost for the Fortuner will go from 2.87 to 2.91 per km...
  15. There are organizations that will help them get tickets, and coach them on what to say when they get there.
  16. That is sad, I thought they voted and whatnot. Well, in that case, I think we should send them all to Scotland where they'll be protected from all the hate that countries like the US and the rest of the UK suffer.
  17. Are you sure? Because it will be the left that determines what constitutes anti-gay. I meant send them directly from Uganda to Scotland. All the better. So to be clear, it is your position that anyone from Uganda claiming they are LGBTQ should be granted asylum in the US or UK, yes or no? And for that matter, anyone claiming to be gay from any country that that is anti-gay, should be granted asylum as well, yes or no?
  18. Not to worry, they can apply online and be flown in.
  19. People granted asylum can apply to live in the United States permanently which will be granted, as will a path to citizenship. And I said votes and support. But you know all that.
  20. So, anyone from Ugandahat says they are LGBTQ should be granted asylum in the US or UK, yes or no? And for that matter, anyone claiming to be gay from any country that that is (per the left's definition) anti-gay, should be granted asylum as well, yes or no? I think we should send them all to Scotland where they'll be protected from all the hate that countries like the US and UK suffer.
