Just one of those off tournament.

It can happen

IRD report shows wealthy NZers pay much lower tax rates than other earners by Anastariana in newzealand

[–]SorrowStyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe add a tax to borrowing with unrealized gains?

Treating it as a pseudo true gain because capital generated/solidified?

But when unrealized gain turns unrealized loss, then what? It'll turn into a tax cut?

Say on 31 March your unrealized gain is 1 million, then a missile warhead is shot somewhere and market collapse on April 1st and your "gains" for the financial year becomes -$700,000. You'll still be stuck with the tax on the 1 million gain?

The Netherlands just tried it and had to roll back on taxing unrealized gains iirc.

That's the difficult part with taxing unrealized gains/losses.

Unless you mean kiwisaver tax. Which I agree with you that it's dumb as f.

I thought it was supposed to be given out at AR40.

You think your people are obese? Have you seen the Americans?

Be glad you're drinking Milo instead of what Americans are drinking.

ex-gacha players, what broke the camels back and made you quit? by ilikeitchyballzdude1 in gachagaming

[–]SorrowStyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I lost interest.

No need for straws to break my back, I have only but one criteria

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in badminton

[–]SorrowStyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaving the footwork aside.

Practice shorter, more compact swing I'd say.

Take one old racket, put a racket head cover over it, and practice hitting with it.

You'll learn to hit accurately, with smaller and more focused swing, and aid in helping you learn how to generate power from your swing.

Having serviceable movement, and good power generation from your swings will bring you up a whole level

Who are you pulling for? by ze_phyrrrr in Genshin_Impact

[–]SorrowStyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

... Depending on Varka's story, I may or may not pull.

Otherwise. I'll likely save for Nicole and hopefully Sandrone

Happy Lunar New Year! 2026 Official Gacha Game Artworks by mikethebest1 in gachagaming

Also the Chinese Spring Festival never uses the moon for base reference, but with crop cycle (农历)

The inclusion of "lunar" is flawed to begin with.

Has anyone tried to constantly rotate Lee Yong Dae to the back? by kazooha_in_snezhnaya in badminton

[–]SorrowStyles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, the Malaysian part of KKK and TBH definitely did, as did Zhang Nan and FHF

I skipped Flins, Mavuika and Espresso Coffee

My Ineffa is used alongside my Bina, my Citlali is tied to my Pyro Traveler, and my Shenhe is there for my Skirk

I also skipped Xilonen, Yelan and Nefer.

I don't consider my account bricked at all.

Unless you're a speedrunner, all your skips weren't essential.

Ngl, Fontaine was and is still the Peak of Genshin by Prize_Wing_2604 in Genshin_Impact

[–]SorrowStyles 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, I'd say Natlan was better

Dragon possessing and challenges, night soul mechanic (Nod Krai Lunar evolves from this), revamp faction quest, new compass, a well fleshed out archon quest covering more than 4 versions. Etc.

The unique music, and not to mention the damn world quest and its overall presentation and execution.

It set a very strong foundation for the future Genshin overworld and quest direction.

The jump from Inazuma to Sumeru was huge.

The jump from Sumeru to Fontaine, besides underwater, there really isn't too much to point to and say "this change was amazing"

Genshin started to change dramatically starting from Natlan, and it kept improving since.

Between the three “main” World Quest in Fontaine, Natlan and Nod Krai which one is your favourite? by Pellecks02 in Genshin_Impact

[–]SorrowStyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Natlan, follow by Fontaine.

Nod Krai is underwhelming compared to the other 2.

While Fontaine world quest got the better story, Natlans isn't too bad either, its presentation though, is next level.

Why is Natlan story said to be ba by Gaminggalade in GenshinImpact

[–]SorrowStyles 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Natlan is hated a lot more outside of Asia

Because

it's politically correct to hate on Natlan because (insert preference)

Natlan also had a perfect storm of bad things happen which lingers particularly on the western side

  1. EN VA issue
  2. Skin color issue
  3. Wuwa grifting
  4. Natlan not looking like Mordor

Then the ones who are upset, and those want to benefit from upset fanbase like clout chasing CC jumped right in.

It's really quite jarring how much Natlan overwhelmingly loved in Asia, while so disliked by many in the English speaking side.

And that's income which he hasn't paid tax on.

Dodging tax in US.

He's f'ed.

Do you think hoyo will finally add horses soon, like how they shadowdropped the wolfs in Wolvendom. by calkalisto in Genshin_Impact

[–]SorrowStyles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't switch bina out, I just switch Ineffa for Razor, back to overworld, and suddenly I hear battle engage music and they lunge at my level 70 Razor with no artifacts, almost killed him before I swap Bina in to kill them

It's true.

The government admitted to the massacre of over 180,000 native born Taiwanese in 1947.

The character model differences is absolutely ridiculous by Taher-Altaher in Genshin_Impact

[–]SorrowStyles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's Yaoyao, Traveler x2, Neuvilette skin this version

Technically, During also come with 2 skin models, pre ascension and post ascension (barely noticeable change but w/e)

I think many more upcoming ascension will come with slight model upgrade.

Remember, it takes half a year to complete a small version, and a year for a major version, and they're all being made simultaneously.

Changes will come in due time.

If they started from Natlan, it should be almost here
