It will also be affected to some extent due to parts built in Mexico and Canada

It's not only the final assembly but also all parts.

Nearly half of all vehicles sold in the United States are imported, as well as nearly 60 percent of the parts in vehicles assembled in the United States.

Is there even an egg shortage? They stores where I shop usually have their egg fridges as full as usual, only more expensive

I'm Mexican but I work in the US. I've been coming to the US since I was a few months old since I lived closer to the border. I've never been asked for my cellphone or anything personal. They usually asked for the reason to come into the country, evidence of said reason and (before my work visa) my ticket to get out of the country

That said, since a few years ago you have to tell them your social media handles when renewing your visa, and it has a disclaimer that omission can be grounds for denying the visa

In Mexico those would be called crepas. The thick version (American pancakes) are called hot cakes

Strava allows to compare previous sessions and shows if you are faster or slower than your rolling average. It also tracks your intensity levels and can track by month or year

I actually don't like strava for tracking my exercise in real time but I upload it there for analysis. It also has some community features where you can see how your friends are doing

In my previous job I had to travel very often to customer's sites or or other offices

The ones in Germany drank regularly during lunch time. I never felt comfortable to do it since my job was very technical. In one office they even had a fridge full of beers and wines that you could grab freely. I never saw anybody drinking at the office tho

The US has a trade agreement with Mexico and Canada and it still means shit to him

Where? In my area as soon as they announce a new development a few weeks later they have a sign that says "lasts houses left" and a few after that they remove the sale sign

These are giant ranch houses too, we need lots of small and medium houses

I wonder if the people who claim that only order the sugary stuff. I tried McDonald's a couple of times recently after reading online that they got the Tim Hortons OG coffee provider and it was awful. I'm not a fan of Starbucks but at least they serve consistently good coffee (not great). I only get it if I'm on company expenses

It's not an Instagram filter, it's exposure time. I set my camera on night mode and it took pictures during 4-10 seconds and the results were incredible

But even with the naked eye the lights were incredible last night

We arrived to the park before sunset and the biggest display was right when it became dark enough and a lot of people started arriving 2-3 hours later after watching pictures of other people and they were complaining that it didn't look as magical as the pictures. Lots of those people who arrived late were also using flashlights and just taking pictures of using their phones, not letting their eyes get used to the dark conditions or even really looking at the sky
