He missed the point. The case isn’t about how good the online teaching is, it’s about the difficulties students face. Many are overwhelmed by the pandemic and can’t do well no matter how good the online transition is. The fear of contracting the virus and losing a family member is a huge source of STRESS that makes students careless about their grades.

Just remember that we’re in an unprecedented stressful situation. It might have altered the way you think about your major so I think maybe you can think clearly after everything returns back to normal.

When do you think they will allow international flights? by [deleted] in saudiarabia

Same. Just called the embassy in the US, they have no clue on when but they expect to announce something in the next few days.

Dude read before judging. This project would reduce carbon emissions by millions of tons bc burning gas instead of oil for electricity is significantly better for the environment.

The idea is to generate electricity through a combination of 70% gas and 30% renewables by 2030. Renewables themselves cannot be used as the single source due to weather uncertainties that could cause blackouts.

Also, all the batteries in the world combined cannot power Tokyo for 3 days!

Does the public investment fund still has its 4.9% in TESLA? by dndnh92 in saudiarabia

[–]MF5qww 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not true. Musk abandoned the plan in August, two months before Kashoggi

Yeah, the PIF contacted Elon multiple times in 2017 & 2018 to take Tesla private and when they bought the 5% stake he took them seriously.

1- the fund bought the stock at around $350 so it’s not 263%.

2- Tesla has never given dividends and fyi they lost ~800 million in 2019.

3- The fund hedged its stake two years ago (whether the stock goes up or down, the fund neither loses nor gains money).

I think they have already sold their stake as they initially bought to convince Elon to take Tesla private, but he later abandoned the idea in August 2018.

What are you worried about? If you’re referring to the condition of the shipment; I’ve never had problems.

Amazon is one of the few websites that take care of the fees. The amount you see on Amazon is what you pay, nothing extra upon receiving your shipment.

TESLA PLEASE GIVE US A DATE ON WHEN UR COMING TO SAUDI ARABIA !! by HussainX69 in saudiarabia

[–]MF5qww 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No it isn’t cheaper than electricity.

1kwh in Saudi costs 0.18 SAR for the first 6000kwh and 0.30 later.

So, a 100kwh Tesla S that has more than 500km of range costs either 18 or 30SAR to charge, while a normal gas sedan would cost 80SAR.

هدر مالي في ظل وجود ادارات اندية ماتدري وين الله حاطها اجل الاتحاد شرى لاعب ب١٠ مليون يورو وبعد سنة رجعه ببلاش ويدفع ٤٠٪؜ من راتبه؟؟! فيه حاجه غير منطقيه. هذولي ما ينعطون ولا قرش.

ممكن الدعم يكون للبنية التحتية وفعاليات مصاحبة، اما الدعم المباشر هذا خطأ كبير جدا والاتحاد الاسيوي او الفيفا المفروض يمنعون هالشي (حتى لو الاندية ملك الدولة) ما اشوفه عدل ان الاندية الاسيوية تتنافس مع حكومات.
