        You’re right, red vs blue isn’t the real fight, and the people can’t win until they start acting against the real threat to the people.

        It’s sad you’re being downvoted. The two party system needs to go.

      Because we’re physically attached to those fucking morons, our prices for everything will also go up. I hope every Canadian remembers this.

        I’m definitely gonna be doing some price research across regions and pre/post Apr 2025 before buying anything from now on. I’m not purchasing product from companies who socializing the US tariff costs to other nations.

        I hated Canada because of this relationship. I have been asking for a long time for Canada to get some backbone and not rely on the USA for everything. This is finally our time to shine.

      That’s what I did. Bought new processor, graphics card, monitor OLED wide-screen, all last year. I knew this shit was coming. These pieces will last me well past this orange fuck face.

      I still have my Logitech BT mouse from 2005. Still working great. Are their newer products bad?

        Google “Logitech mouse double clicking”. If you don’t get top of the line, good chance you’ll be double clicking in 6 months of moderate use.

          I hear about this a lot, but I feel like it must be a problem with newer models. I have a G502 from 2016 (pre-logo change) that gets heavy office/gaming use 8-10 hours most days and still works perfectly. The metal scroll wheel is pretty corroded though.

            It’s hit and miss. I was getting bad switches in Logitech mice back in 2005. The double-click problem has been around for a long time.

      The fact they kept selling their flagship mouse with usb micro was appalling. And I think the only reason they moved to usbc was because of the EU. For a $200 mouse 🙄

        Wait till you discover their main racing wheel is a 25 year old design that they remove features from and raise the price with every re release. Logi is a shit company. There is 0 reason to buy any of their stuff.

          Definitely profits first. I recall they hit the news because some manager said they would consider a mouse subscription service if it was possible.

          They fully went on the embargo list after that one.

    You didn’t seriously think China or Logitech was going to pay that tariff, did you? Be prepared for a LOT of stuff to cost more.

        The way tariffs work is companies pass on the cost of those tariffs directly to consumers by raising their prices. THAT’S how tariffs work.

        Nobody is getting “punished” by this except consumers.
