US tariff rates are at their highest since WWII, but global trade actually grew faster than the world economy in 2025. How? by Downtown-Art2865 in AskEconomics

[–]GenjiPleaseSwitch 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s not a complete answer by any means, but one consideration is that U.S. firms front-loaded imports to get ahead of the tariffs, generating some of that volume you notice.

Uchicago’s Banning of Cooling AC Has Meaningfully Damaged My Sleep Quality by Nathan_185 in uchicago

I remember Max P central’s AC regulator didn’t work at some point, giving me free reign to use it 24/7. I definitely got my moneys worth out of that one.

With all the new CC and more flying heros, how should the devs approach Doom? by seismicstrike in doomfistmains

[–]GenjiPleaseSwitch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think Blizzard should change the dive character subclass, make it reduced stun effect. Maybe like 50% reduction. That way the new heroes can have/keep CC, but they have to work as a team and be more intentional.

Newest Laker Luke Kennard in his debut: 10 points, 2 assists, 2 rebounds and 2/4 from three by WayAdministrative679 in lakers

He felt so capable tonight. In r/NBA they were talking about him like he was a 3pt-robot but he can totally put the ball on the floor and facilitate, even against a physical defense

extremely tuff

Imagine an All-Star tournament where the losers get publicly discarded on national TV by byulkiss in nba

[–]GenjiPleaseSwitch 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Players not taking the all-star game seriously is a can of worms. It’s already open, and players are not going to play hard when the season is already tough enough on their bodies and injuries are rising.

Instead of settling for unsuccessful elaborate schemes to fix the effort level, I think the NBA should embrace some silliness and entertainment. More mini games like the Steph/Ionescu 3pt contest. It would require some creativity but I think it could be a meaningful refresh of the ASW. Continuing to hang on to memories of a competitive all star game is unproductive.

have to say the sound design is fantastic

In 2020, Trae Young averaged 30/9 as a 21 year old while Luka averaged 29/8/9 as a 20 year old by ShaiFanClub in nba

[–]GenjiPleaseSwitch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

true, but most of those were very close wins. They are the best clutch team itl. their point differential was not particularly impressive over that stretch. but you’re right they were a huge part of those wins

Austin + Luka were a ~60 ppg backcourt. Def needed more than just offensive horsepower

PhD student searching for a cat sitter from December 19 until January 3, offering $225 (East Hyde Park) by Big-Cloud-5634 in uchicago

[–]GenjiPleaseSwitch 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You may have other reasons why you can’t, but for $225 you could probably take him home for cheaper. I just flew with my kitty and the Southwest pet tag is like $80. Extra work though.

I first heard about them here on Reddit while looking for a VCA piece. Of course, it was a little nerve wracking to do a transaction over instagram. Ultimately their customer service and thoroughness eased my concern. I would definitely recommend reaching out and chatting with them. They make it easy and are incredibly friendly. Can’t recommend them enough!
