    No it’s not good. The lower the barrier to every the better. More ability to choose the level of quality work you desire. A handyman for bill gates is going to be a complete differ…

    I’m all for vegan food but if you do that it’s got to be vegan first, not over processed animal product imitations. Vegan patties are not healthy and barely ok, vegan cheese is one…

    Being able to cut out the dealer allows you to under cut your competitors by 2-5K. It’s extremely hard to compete with that. Other manufacturers need to take notice and follow suit…

    Simply of old designs is often a blessing as long as the drawing and documentation is readable and good. It can be hard to get replacement electronics for 1970s designs so sometime…
