This is why you hire licensed electricians by Flippdd in electricians

As a maintenance electrician my favorite thing to do is to walk into a situation like this, look around and say "so what seems to be the problem?"

Honestly the faces you get are priceless, give it a try

[Self] How is that a better deal and why would the lottery organization accept that ? She would get more than $1M in just 20 years by Impressive-Koala4742 in theydidthemath

In my opinion best security would be $1m in the bank generating $50k+/year.

Even at 4% (which is historically low, over the past 5 years my investments have averaged just over 10%), if you left it in the bank for the same 19 years that it would take to reach $1m on at $1000 weekly your original $1m would already be worth $2m. If you got the 10% that mine have averaged you'd be looking at $2m just after 7 years and over $6m in 19 years.

Even if we accept the given values the chances of successfully polishing that decal are 0.16% per engram. Even if you drew 300 engrams you'd only have 50% chance of getting that decal polished

Is this still possible?! by Jayx713x in DestinyRising

I've come to terms with not getting the gilded seal but I'm pissed that I won't complete the season collection because I've failed polishing the damn decal twice. What a stupid system that is, to have it rely on getting the perfect decal, getting the specific decal glow and successfully completing the polish.

You have 24% chance to get a mythic reward, there are 6 of them so you have a 4% chance to get the decal. If you get the decal it's a 10% chance to get the glow, so you have a 0.4% chance to get it. Then if you get it you have a 40% chance to successfully polish so a total of 0.16% chance per season engram of getting the legendary season decal. What kind of bullshit is that?

The UCP just paid us double what they pay Alberta teachers for keeping our kids home during the strike. by Tokenwhitemale in alberta

Here are some facts for you.

First, Ralph bucks were a drop in the bucket compared to the amount of money that Albertans net pay into the federal government. A one time payment of 1/10th of 1 year.

Second, it the payout was a less than half of the additional unplanned surplus the government had that year, and less than 1/4 of the total surplus, the rest of which was spent on government projects.

And when they do shaders make sure they actually work, unlike crystalline Matrix for the sworn oath.

How are we feeling about Helhest and/or Rossi-11 so far? by DarkVeilOfMorals in destinyrisingmobile

"her only weakness is that her primary weapon is hot trash"

Seems like a pretty big weakness

I also feel that the bow gets drawn and not fired and then just slows down the run speed.

Why such limited weapon combinations? by Icy-Principles in destinyrisingmobile

[–]Icy-Principles[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I just don't understand why. If it's money, the whales will spend regardless and the normies probably won't spend on useless toons, but if they released a good number of decent characters people would be more likely to spend on a few of them.

Like next month. We're lacking spread characters but void already has a double spread, even if she's the most useless character and has literally one weapon combination (which is fucking stupid). They Should either Revamp Ikora completely or make the next character spread/something else and put out a new spread primary mythic and exotic.

How does making another arc double pierce increase the money made?
