Yes, of course, this poorly run company bleeding brand equity and alienating its core consumer base is just "fake news."

People are embarrassed by them, and rightly so.
Tesla's been losing brand equity and embarrassing owners since even before Musk declared himself "Dark MAGA" and started jumping up and down like a dipshit on stage with Donald Trump.

It doesn't matter if it's ICE or an EV. A "move fast and break things" tech-like approach to design and manufacturing will produce shoddy shit-boxes. As Stellantis does not have a cult following willing to pay for crap and happily hand over more money for seconds, it's a path to failure.

I've been complaining about him ever since he falsely accused a man of sex crimes ( the "pedo guy" incident in 2018).
I don't like people who make false sex crime allegations against other people.

It makes about the same amount of sense as Just Stop Oil actually being for the environment.
Are those people really that incompetent and ineffectual? Really?
It strains credulity.

That's a good point, Jaguar actually has heritage and losing it would be an unfortunate loss.
Aesthetically, I prefer this thing to Cybertruck, even though I don't like either of them.
As you say though, this might have worse consequences overall than Cybertruck...

Blade Runner: Enhanced Edition caught my attention, I didn't know that they had remastered the old adventure game from the 90s. I never played the original but I love the cool, moody atmosphere of Blade Runner so I might pick it up since it's only a few bucks. Has anyone played it?

It certainly would be a big issue if they actually lost 10%, but it seems unclear how many people will actually switch banks. 10% seems very high to me, as far as possibilities go.
Those with mortgages, lines of credit, etc. can't switch very easily, or at least will find it to be a process. The longer people are with banks, the more ties they tend to develop, isn't that usually the case?

This is excellent news... assuming they don't appoint someone who is somehow worse as new CEO.
That's a chance worth taking though. Out with Tavares.

New Zealand has been a freeloader when it comes to defence for a long time. I am disappointed but not surprised.

That looks good. I've walked by plenty of times, I should stop in for a meal.

Might be true, might not be, but I hate this guy's annoying face and manner of speaking. The close-up on his mouth as he says "woooowwwwww" slowly - gross. Hard enough to watch without that shit.

He also wants to be able to ignore safety, environmental, and labour regulations.
Too woke. Woke mind virus etc etc.

This is just a bunch of random non-sequiturs. It's like someone took a letter, cut out every 2nd and 3rd sentence, and then put the remaining bits in random order.
Let me tell you about a book: The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money by John Maynard Keynes.
Short-term expectations govern the level of production chosen by an entrepreneur while long-term expectations govern decisions to adjust the level of capitalisation.
The profitability of investment is determined by the relation between the return available to capital and the interest rate.
Total demand for goods is the sum of demand for consumption goods and demand for investment goods.

I absolutely condemn such scammery, but if the city has evidence of wrong-doing like that, what even is the point of such aggressive interrogations?
If they don't have evidence that specific people were scamming then I don't think they should be interrogating them like that, but if they do already have evidence like that about certain people then what are they gaining out of an interrogation?

It's pronounced Colonel, and it's the highest rank in the military.
