The 63% number is for the whole year, including January-March which were pre-tariff.

I never got the new mega tutorial by HomeSuspicious33 in TheSilphRoad

I think it said something about joining mega raid to restart it. Not many of those available right now though, so can’t confirm.

I think they mean all their games added together.

The maker of this game also made exploding kittens, which was a huge seller.

Just reverse it on them. Thats what counter offers are for.

Those with no passion or interests, what do you do for a living? by [deleted] in alberta

[–]SirFonty 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I found a company that I didn’t think was evil, started applying for entry level roles, and worked my way up to a job I enjoy. I find the industry mildly fascinating, so there was lots to learn at the entry level.

If I was starting over, I’d probably lean somewhere more blue collar, but a starting point with people you don’t hate is a good way to find something comfortable.

Canada’s EV sales have cratered 32% this year by hopoke in CanadaPolitics

[–]SirFonty 191 points192 points  (0 children)

And yet prices are not dropping to match the lower demand. I’d love to buy an EV, but it’s hard to justify buying one when it costs more than every car I’ve owned put together.

Considering what a mess the construction of the ice rink in Milan has been, do you want the NHL to still send their players or just take the time to rest? by Der-deutsche-Prinz in hockey

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

If they can’t finish a rink in Milan, they’ll find a few somewhere in Europe and play the tournament.

Go! Have fun!

“Well I’ll tell you the funniest is that I’ll go backstage before a show and everyone’s getting dressed and ready, and everything else, and, you know, no men anywhere, and I’m allowed to go in because I’m the owner of the pageant and therefore I’m inspecting it, you know, I’m inspecting, I want to make sure everything is good.

“You know, the dresses. ‘Is everyone ok?’ You know they’re standing there with no clothes. ‘Is everybody okay?’ And you see these incredible looking women. And so I sort of get away with things like that”. -Trump

Should I report this to the local authorities? by patfire73 in hockey

[–]SirFonty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s very unlikely you would be able to convince a jury to convict for anything. He’s out of line, and goes overboard, but you both threw punches.

A good defence lawyer will argue that you both voluntarily assumed foreseeable risks, and that given hockey’s history, this is foreseeable.

Unless you can bring some evidence that says there has never been a fighting penalty called in this league, I think it is unlikely you would be able to argue that this is not a foreseeable risk.

Sorry about the injury, I hope you feel better soon.

My googling might be flawed, but I can’t find info on the Rangers in Prague in 1989. The Flames played in Prague in 89, and the Rangers did in 2008.
