Globally, according to research by the Rocky Mountain Institute, EVs will comprise two-thirds of the world’s car sales by 2030. However, according to the World Resources Institute, “EVs need to account for 75 percent to 95 percent of passenger vehicle sales by 2030 in order to meet international climate goals aimed at keeping global warming to 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F).”

Was strongly considering a Kia or Hyundai for my next vehicle (I'm a current Hyundai owner), but if this is what it looks like, it's more than sufficient for me to look elsewhere.

I lost my sister suddenly 2 days before Christmas in 2008. The joy came back — after a fair amount of therapy and contemplation — and over time, life grew around the gaping hole.

A couple of quotes that I keep near me:

Yet, in a bizarre, backwards way, death is the light by which the shadow of all of life’s meaning is measured. Without death, everything would feel inconsequential, all experience arbitrary, all metrics and values suddenly zero.

Mark Manson

When you dull pain and hide it from yourself, you dull your joys as well.

All the best for this holiday season, and all the ones that follow.

Sure, the first year (or two) of COVID were wretched, but most of those barriers have since cleared — yet I'm still struggling. I've noticed the same with a number of people within my family and neighbourhood.

How are others feeling? Are you struggling, yet succeeding? If so, how are you breaking through?

Tucked into the bottom:

TekSavvy, which was also looking for a seller earlier this year, says it's "not currently for sale."

I have a love-hate relationship with Canadaland, but will fully acknowledge that their series on monopolies in Canada was excellent: https://www.canadaland.com/podcast/introducing-the-new-season-monopoly/

I'm not a Conservative voter myself, but respectfully, I don't think this is the kind of post that belongs here.

I get that a lot of CPC rhetoric is chimpanzees flinging poo at the wall, but there's no substance, not even a call for debate 🤷

Plus the last 10 minutes of every game won't be so bloody conservative. Teams will want to go for it

I've been with Teksavvy for nearly 15 years. This is a sad, sad day.
