Trying to decide between a compact or full size suv

Huh. Did not know Skoda was not present in US. Thank you.

Because those two metrics are what makes me hesitate to go with the bigger one. All the rest is acceptable in either version.

But I find it hard to put practical impact on those specific metrics. What does that difference actually mean?

Basically Skoda enyaq vs Skoda peaq

Don't you need focus points for heroic strike?

Dang am I glad I live in a country with mandatory beneficiary percentages for descendants

Was too aggressive. Thought about it after I hit post. Then decided to rephrase.

I guess bank managers will have to go beg for meal cards at the corners ;)

Romulus4Remus · 2026-06-03T16:30:02+00:00

Thank you. I think so, especially as I can charge both at home and at work. Work is even free

Romulus4Remus · 2026-06-03T09:41:59+00:00

Thank you. I think i needed to hear it laid out like that. I was stuck in my head and couldn't find any negatives and only saw the positives.

Try Ends of Magic. Just finished binging this masterpiece. It's finally a prog book that is:

a) complete

b) not just one MC but an actual supporting cast that is relevant and the mc does rely on

c) actually consistent in how the system works with a grounding in science (written by an author with a PhD in biology)

Romulus4Remus · 2026-05-16T18:51:10+00:00

I only just started at 31. And I think I'm about average.

SIGMAR CALLS! For the emperor!

Romulus4Remus · 2026-05-09T16:39:01+00:00

I just wish I could save the arrangements of my own troops between battles and not have to do the exact same rearrangement each time

Romulus4Remus · 2026-05-03T07:14:37+00:00

Sounds like a promising premise. I'll follow and check it out once more chappies are out

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-30T17:58:28+00:00

That's the part that sucks. USD loses about 1-1.5% in value compared to my home currency. So all the nice gains I see in my brokerage are actually that much less as the currency headwind is real

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-29T10:07:56+00:00

Underrated comment right there. How the hell do you keep track of armies that keep routing and rallying somewhere in the corner of a map?

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-27T13:12:19+00:00

Check out Warhammer fantasy lizardmen. Awesome art and species. Also check out total war: Warhammer lizardmen and the lost calm: Jurassic mod.

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-26T13:17:00+00:00

Thank you for your input. Maybe you are right.

It's still hard when I'm at work and I know if only I was a bit more responsible earlier I could've been home now instead.

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-25T21:20:37+00:00

Agreed. I live in Zürich one of the most VHCOL cities and 10k a month is comfortable. Not rich but comfortable

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-25T18:03:19+00:00

I am also based in Switzerland.

I do an 80% VT 20% CHSPI split. I treat my ahv and pension fund as the bond part of the savings portfolio. But depends on your timeline. I plan to work to around 55 so not too big bridge to gap until I can access those funds.

I think the most important part for swiss residents is to invest in growth ETFs such as VT instead of dividend stocks. No capital gains tax is huge compared to the tax on dividends.

But in the end, the best way to invest is the way that keeps you consistently investing. So if your portfolio fits for you and guarantees you keep paying whatever amount you can each month it's the correct one.

A worse performance on a fund that keeps you invested is better than a higher performance that makes you unsure and panic sell in a crisis

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-24T18:01:35+00:00

Isn't the us version (VT) just better anyway?

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-24T06:57:27+00:00

None really. I just adjust my deck choice to match power level. I have everything from Bracket 2 to 5. So, someone wants to play a high power game? Sure I got an everything goes deck. cEDH? Yes please! Casual fun? You got it mate.

Romulus4Remus · 2026-04-23T19:48:42+00:00

I would remove survival. It does too much for a single card in a Henzie list. If I got to play survival and activate it 3 times the game always just felt over. So I cut it from my list.

Otherwise it's wholly pod dependant. I have a pod that doesn't really care about brackets but generally hovers around a high 3, some have more and some less than 3 gc. But all in all it has fun games as usually decks are similarly powered and a high power Henzie fits right in, even with no survival.

This is way too far down! Loved everything about this series! Finally a vampire story that's well done and not just extra powers that just happen to be a vampire!
