It's a holdover from old BBS forum style.

When you reply to an ancient thread, it immediately gets pushed to the top of the board. Now everyone basically is wondering what this 5 year old topic is doing on the first page. And they might have to read through several pages of messages to understand what the hell the newest reply is about because nobody remembers the topic in the first place.

With Reddit/Lemmy, the upvote system means it really doesn't matter at all if you reply to an ancient thread, it won't jump to the front page for anyone.

They can describe themselves again. I suppose that could be considered cultural restoration?

We are putting tarrifs on stuff we buy from you, because you make too much money on us. But we are going to remove tarrifs from the stuff that we buy from you, ~~because we need them.~~

Because their CEOs attended his dinner and bribed him.

The real reason?

Apple, Intel, and other execs bribed him during an overpriced dinner.

This whole tariff thing has nothing to do with the country or international relations or manufacturing or whatever.

It's just his latest personal grift. He just now has the power to say "every CEO in the world must personally give me a bribe or I'll continue doing some really stupid shit."

Better start checking insurance records for each of those cars. Each of these cars are required to have insurance the moment they drive off the lot, so let's see when those cars were ACTUALLY sold...

And I hope Canada can manage to find stronger trade partners with everyone else, especially the EU

I can guarantee you that 95% of car owners don't know the name of the CEO of their car company. Most people who bought Teslas years ago didn't know or care who Elon Musk is.
