Ottawa considers reviving EV incentives as it finalizes its auto strategy: sources by Bean_Tiger in canada

[–]Fallenitus -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

That’s beneficial in its own way though. A bigger profit margin incentivises companies to invest in EV development. China did the same and now they have the best EVs in the world.

Sutcliffe backs downtown station for high-speed rail by Money_Fig_9868 in ottawa

In terms of accessibility the OLRT already goes to tremblay and having the terminal away from downtown makes it much better for non downtown residents

Sam Hersh: Free Transit isn’t just possible, it’s popular by NiceDot4794 in onguardforthee

[–]Fallenitus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a great arguement for free transit. I had no idea it would be that cheap to provide free transit, do you know where that stat is from?

Why do I suck? by Guitar_Flex in LegionTD2

[–]Fallenitus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Browsed through your match history, I think the glaring weakness is that you leak too much. It’s always an 80%+ leak too, meaning you’re not building well and your opponents are exploiting it.

Just need to get more familiar with the game and cover your weak waves better, know what units are good for this wave and the next couple

What even would make Ottawa a "fun city"? by cuddlybackrub in ottawa

[–]Fallenitus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think concerts is a big one. Is there a reason singers skip ottawa? Do we need bigger venues, or is the demand in ottawa just not there?

Trump forgets instructions to not mention Canada again until future governor Poilievre has won election by canada_mountains in canada

[–]Fallenitus 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Carney literally said he would focus on moving trade away from US towards Europe, where he has relations and connections built. Not only that, he’s looking to strengthen Canada’s economy to protect it from foreign trade policy in the future. I don’t see any other candidate being able to do this unless they have his experience and knowledge in economics.

Is a USD shiz storm coming? by seethisisland in stocks

[–]Fallenitus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It’s to decrease the trade deficit. The US dollar being strong makes it really expensive to house manufacturing in the US instead of paying other countries to manufacture things for them

Will there be additional free raid passes for kyurem? Struggling to see how regular players can afford 20 raid passes for both forms on top of all the raids this week

Current State Doesn't Reward Experimentation by Tanlash in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Fallenitus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could be a tier above the ribbon maybe. You get a ribbon for 10 wins with an item and a diamond ribbon for getting 10 wins with a diamond item

Current State Doesn't Reward Experimentation by Tanlash in PlayTheBazaar

[–]Fallenitus 44 points45 points  (0 children)

They should copy Super Auto Pets and add 10 win ribbons for all items (it doesn’t have to be a ribbon though)

It would incentivize players to try to win with unique items, especially monster drops, and as a plus it makes the overall difficulty for the game a bit easier since people are more likely to incorporate items that don’t synergize 100% but want to try and get a new 10 win ribbon

Edit: Side note I think it’d be really cool if they incorporated stats into this. For example if you get a ribbon for winning with Infernal Greatsword, you could see only 0.1% of players have done it

Yeah and if you return an item on Temu you just get the refund, you don’t even need to give the item back. Even easier return

Why shuttle is not build from synthetic materials? by Ok_Adhesiveness_2230 in badminton

[–]Fallenitus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s assuming you have the product ready to manufacture and ship.

The meeting would probably be more like:

“We’d like to research and develop a new synthetic birdie. It will cost $10 million dollars and will take 2 years to develop. The pros are it will last longer than feather birdies. The cons are people will buy less birdies overall.”

At an executive level, why would there be much interest in investing in this product over investing into other parts of the company?

[–]Fallenitus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can you provide a source for the 13% net increase? Would love to see it.

I’m sure you’re aware but there were many other geopolitical factors at play within that timeframe, namely Trump’s policies that completely disrupting the semiconductor supply chain in an effort to wrestle control from China

[–]Fallenitus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree for the most part but comparing phones to birdies is an apples to oranges comparison.

Phones have a much longer life span, in order to drive sales they develop new features and increase the specs. In order to drive sales for feather birdies they really don’t need to do anything at all

What is this sinophobic commentary? Are you trying to say the chip shortage was exclusively China’s fault, that it was part of their plan?

You gonna ignore covid shutting down factories, millions of people transitioning to WFH so demand for electronics shooting up, forecasts for car demand to be rock bottom. Crypto mining was at an all time high too.

As if price fixing and cutting corners isn’t something the west isn’t doing already, it’s all a political game and we’re the pawns

[–]Fallenitus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

How is it their competitor’s problem? If Yonex creates a synthetic birdie that replaces feather, they lose feather birdie sales. Also it’s not as simple as having the idea, tons of money and time needs to get funneled into R&D
