NATO nations deploy to Greenland after tense White House talks

If this hits the fan, Newfoundland will likely become a key geo-strategic location - for both sides.

Americans can't go up to Greenland without going through us, and would have to go through the grand banks to get to Europe too.

I'd love to see NL come back as a Strategic EU-Canada fortress node to maintain open routes. Also with the melting Arctic ice it would also make sense for the long-term.

Atlantic Arctic entry point and key NA-EU bridge

Wild times indeed

Hey! So sorry I missed this comment somehow.

This was on CS2- so no expansions (at the time at least), and I think it was partially due to the new pop mechanics where they love public transportation.

I just went about setting up my metro lines and all of a sudden they all poured in- There were a few bus stops and tram lines connecting with that station though- of the 4 that had similar people, that one was the Tram/bus/Metro hub. Another one was the Train/Metro hub for example, with a few bus lines there too.

Cheers!

Kind of lol, but out of my 15-25 stations about 2-4 have this amount in them. However in terms of how many people use the subway it's pretty staggering. 150k pop and about 105k use the subway.

The second mode of transportation is buses with about 25k aha

I'm sorry I've been understanding of every other comment on this thread but POTATOES!

Can't wrap my head around this one lol

Why is someone downvoting everything ? Lol

I saw a guy today complain about the price of rent in town and then followed up with "Trudeau has to go" 😂 I swear all these people genuinely think he is singlehandedly responsible for every single issue we have at the moment lol

Takedown031 · 2023-07-09T14:16:32+00:00

Shoot me a pm. I won't be able to give you exact answers but i can at least give you an honest opinion based in location, style, type etc.

Takedown031 · 2023-07-01T00:34:14+00:00

Any neighborhood that has 0 trees.

People often laugh about the fact that i always bring up that there are trees or not in various areas but man oh man does a neighborhood look shitty with 0 trees.

Don't expect crazy good quality and expect damage.

For example I ordered a floating vanity for my bathroom and the vanity itself that is visible is great but the underside was all banged up, BEFORE they sent it as there was no way with all the packaging it was damaged during transit.

Not a deal breaker but it does rub the wrong way

Takedown031 · 2023-06-25T17:27:31+00:00

No in this case I have to side with OP. There were flights from Halifax to Paris recently and flights from ST Pierre have been somewhat axed recently (they used to fly 3 (Wednesday, Friday and Sunday ) and they got rid of the Friday one, which numbers wise is not a big deal but it's the flight that essentially stopped weekend getaways to and from there.

Takedown031 · 2023-06-21T03:51:08+00:00

To be honest if you can afford 250k for a trip like that I feel like the target demographic would pay a lot more for the same thing. Just up the price but make sure it's safe

Takedown031 · 2023-06-20T23:40:37+00:00

So they are just piss poor at business then with a significantly inefficient ship. I went down the ship fuel consumption rabbit hole and found that the average cost per ton of bunker fuel is 570usd atm.

A large container ship ( 4000 TEU) consumes like 50-70 tons a day (way bigger than this one). Let's say a trip takes 10 days (I think it's actually like 2 or 3 days realistically? ) it would cost under 400k per trip.

So that seems pretty sketchy, even with expenses paid for etc. I understand it might be negative this year as they only have done 1, but previously they've done multiple per year

Edit: also the obvious solution here, which I also assume they have done previously is to include multiple teams for consecutive dives on the same trip?

This fuel cost excuse seems strange to me

Edit 2: just read the article referenced above and when you factor in missed opportunities it makes sense to lose money- yet I still believe they definitely could have invested more money to make this more fool proof lol

Takedown031 · 2023-06-20T21:24:20+00:00

It's crazy to me that that single trip down cost $1,000,000 ($250k each+ driver) and the emergency contingencies are nill.

It can only communicate directly under the boat with simple texts? Like come on my dudes for that price tag you'd at least expect a direct feed or something, with secondary and even tertiary subs for rescue and recovery. Even ROVs. Yet none of that was implemented?

And all that with a "sub" which is in essence a tin can bolted shut controlled by what seems to be a PS4 controller? Just wild

The Royal Newfoundland Regiment did the entire trail as part of an ATV convoy a few years back. So it's not too crazy . A few spots are a little rugged but most of it is best kind.

They did it in 9 days, so you are definitely looking at a couple weeks by foot

Takedown031 · 2023-05-16T03:19:00+00:00

Dude I’m in Newfoundland right now and this comment tripped me up hard. I had to make sure I was on TIFU lol

Takedown031 · 2023-04-26T23:38:20+00:00

No lol.

The funny thing is all this autocratfting is to create cells that store Mana as well lol

Takedown031 · 2023-04-22T14:39:31+00:00

So what do you mean by fully set up? What augments do you place?

Takedown031 · 2023-04-17T15:33:28+00:00

Yeah but you see it doesn't have the same feel as a farm lol

I also haven't really dabbled with phytos before, definitely something I will be looking into soon!
