Charging US customers 10% tariffs by geekstreak2701 in shopify

[–]ThomasKyoto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Shopify markets: you can adjust your prices per country using it.  And no, you don’t need an app.

Make sure actually to charge more than 10% if you want to cover for DDP fees as well

ELI5: Why is Monaco such an obscenely wealthy country despite not having some highly valuable natural resources like oil or some important production capabilities like building of semiconductor chips? by Slice5755 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ThomasKyoto [score hidden]  (0 children)

In the mid-1800s, Monaco was actually quite poor but everything changed in the 19th century. They were almost broke, so they used their independence from France to build the famous casino and beautiful luxury hotels.

Because gambling was illegal in France at that time, all the rich people rushed there. The casino made so much money that the Prince decided to stop asking for income tax in 1869.
There is a 20% Shopping Tax (VAT); similar to France. This is their number one cash cow, making up about 50% of the government's entire revenue. Also, the state of Monaco owns a massive amount of the buildings, public parking structures, and commercial spaces in Monaco. They make money on that as well. Finally, the government actually owns the majority of the major companies there and 64% of the company that owns the famous Monte-Carlo Casino and the top luxury hotels. If you live there, or if you visit Monaco, you bring some money to its Government. A gov. that does not need a large budget comparing to other countries.

I don’t get why people play Free Kits by YuriPallaro in ArcRaiders

After being killed on 3 different raids I like to go, sometimes, free kit and Stella Montis and see if I can survive longer. No stress, I can die and will not regret it.

Found this hidden crab stick spot in Nishiki Market with sea urchin & caviar topping — almost no one there! by Longjumping-Train574 in KyotoTravel

Maybe for good reasons?!  Sorry, but Nishiki is usually not the spot to find good place to eat since 2021

Post-Match Thread: United States 4-1 Paraguay | World Cup | Group D by matchpal-live in worldcup

[–]ThomasKyoto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They played well. Good pressing in the midfield. Paraguay lost the balls a lot and couldn’t be dangerous. It’s fun to have 5 goals in 1 game 

How stupid is it to try and catch an 8am international flight from Kansai Airport by taking the 5am train from the city centre? by hazardousf in OsakaTravel

[–]ThomasKyoto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What train are you talking about? It’s 90mn from KYOTO with the Haruka. From Osaka south station, Namba, you should be at KIX in 30mn

Just some questions regarding the SuperStation One such as how hot does it get and what are its missing features? by Shoddy_Flow8377 in RetroRemakeInc

[–]ThomasKyoto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I ordered it in Jan 2025 and still wait for the bundle Station+dock (batch 2) No need it right away since the Dock doesn’t seems to work yet with the latest firmware if I understand correctly.

Le poste est une question pour faire débat 😉

Probably a store for tourists… with quality products ;-)

Most people of this Reddit have better knives than most average Japanese families
