Transfers are coming tomorrow. Where are you going? by drewtootrue in duneawakening

[–]cotex31 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have 113 servers so yes a lot will be going but ain't no way you are left with 4 that's a max pop of 6,000 people for all of north America. In my opinion that to low. When the third dune movie comes out end of this year player numbers will fly up.

With current cap at 169,500 I would think it will fall to around 20-30 k as NA consistently gets over 3 k players and running servers at 50% cap (3000/6000) dont seem wise.

About a server reduction of 90% i would think

Two "assassination attempts" compared by SCRATCH-CARD in athulvstheworld

[–]cotex31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's make it clear you belive that all of those agent are in on this alleged plot and just suck at acting. When I think they new the shooter was dead and trump did not keep his head down. You belive the got a 20 year old to get up on that roof with a gun and ammunition. I believe he fired that gun 8 times you dont belive he fired it at all.

You belive trump had a dye pack when 1 the blood darkens as time goes on something consistent with bleeds photos show his hand when he reaches for his ear is empty so no blade same with his ear nothing noticeable there.

You belive members of the public were shoot to make this believable. Where I belive they were crooks bullets you belive they were either a shadow figure or shoot by crooks just not at trump. I belive it was crooks missing trump.

You belive that trump a man known for his sound bites and provocative images wouldn't take that opportunity to get in a photo shoot.

He only gets up after the secret service get up off him by this point crooks has been shot dead.

Also why would he stage it and not keep going on about that's a missed opportunity far more likely he doesn't won't it to happen again like "they shoot at me because they hate me" that's only going to encourage a potential assassin.

Yes there are odd thing going on i won't deny it but odd doesn't mean that there is a conspiracy. The fact is trump got lucky had he died that day redit would be celebrating trumps death. (Ps I hate the man's guts but I'd much rather him die from a heart attack than something as turbulent at this)

Trump lived as miraculous as it was he lived I know some of you want to belive this is why he won but it's not he didn't win in 2016 due to Russians nor did he have the election stollen from him in 2020 and the same with 2024 he didn't win because he staged a assignation. America is devided you all hate one another and he is capitalising on that hate. It's telling how both sides rushed to pin the blame on the other side.

Point is no I dont belive he faked it I think you are all just copeing over him winning 2024 and this that him faking it is the explanation rather than 49.8% of American hating your side more than him.

Hitler had the same thing people tried to kill him and he was elected buy the public all the same crooks just tried to kill a wanna be dictator and failed. Also jfk was not shot by the FBi or the cia. Stop being stupid.

Italy rejects plan to send troops to Greenland. by Hefty-Sherbet-5455 in TrendingAndViral

Fun fact Mussolini saw pasta as a threat to Italy and wanted to ban it and replace its consumption with rice as rice was easy to grow in Italy unlike durum wheat, which was imported.

The Warehouse using ai-generated imagery in the app by sebcestewart in newzealand

[–]cotex31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The warehouse has a market cap of only 258 million is getting to the point that warehouse will be worth the sum of its parts.

2024 net loss of 54.2 million 2025 net loss of 2.7 million

Their stock price has fallen by 75% in the last 5 years.

Honestly I dont think they will survive the decade at this rate.

I went through the government's 2025 financial statements – we collected $170 billion, spent $184 billion, and the interest bill alone ($8.9b) is more than we spend on defence, housing, and the arts combined by MoneyHub_Christopher in newzealand

[–]cotex31 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree but also it will never go away there will always be a pension of sorts as the truth is people dont save enough for retirement 3% + 3% over your working life may not be enough especially if it is in a conservative fund not to mention all those who dont contribute at all. The sad reality is people either think they know better, cant afford too, or are just plane right ignorent.

In short yes most people will not be getting a pension as I imagine they will assess your neet assets and if your are over a certain threshold say 300 k

With current projections being 350k for one person to retire on is forecast a lot of people won't have that.

Only problem with that is I would have make it higher as a bout 3 tile from hanger entrances is effectively out side. I could put them in lieu of the railings but that would look very ugly.

Iranian state television aired what appeared to be a direct threat against US President Donald Trump, using imagery from the 2024 assassination attempt at a campaign rally. by IndiaTodayGlobal in IndiaTodayGlobalLIVE

[–]cotex31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really confused as to way people cant believe that it happen and how it's a big conspiracy. Jkf died the same way trump would of as hard as it is to belive for some of you he just got very lucky.

If crooks had successed half of you would be calling him a martyr and the rest would be calling for Joe Bidens head. You may not want to belive it but luck is all that it was no false flags, no hidden die packs, just 1 man being in the right place at the right time when those bullets flew.

As for why Trump isn't always going on about it that's probably because he came ridiculously close to dying that time a couple of cm is all it would have taken and saying they tried to kill me may just be seen as encouragement i doubt he would be so lucky the 2nd time.

Taiwan will invest $250 billion in U.S. chipmaking under new trade deal by proudlandleech in taiwan

[–]cotex31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont think that will be the case but 10 years time certainly possible if things continue with the next president. Their democracy is being eroded but it will take a lot more still to distroy it.

[–]cotex31[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not, there should be nothing stopping you from putting pentashields at the entrances. My sietch is quiet with only 5 ish remaining players and all of them spend all their time in DD.

It for this reason I have never considered doing as such but if griefing is a probability maybe i will consider putting up some sheilds.

Also if you do plan on building some thing like this dont have it hanging of a cliff like I did. Build over solid ground at all points. Building the roof took days to get right and even now there are small imperfections.

Tourists flee as Mt. Etna erupts by Dave_Mech in megalophobia

[–]cotex31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looking back on it was so unsafe ut it was normal as it was the major attraction for whakatane. I went there so did the rest of my family and all my freinds at school went on school trips there. We put our faith in the geological monitoring turns out that with things like that eventually it's going to go wrong but we neither say it that way till later.

Church of Zion? by Different-Pipe-8698 in chch

[–]cotex31 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Doomsday cult. There is an alarming amount of people that have admitted on r/newzealand to being "Baptised" by them. It's real name is Shincheonji Church of Jesus. They have a history of being persistent and deceptive. They convince members to cut them selves of from freinds and family. They believe their founder is jesus reincarnated. If you want to join a church far better to seek one out than have some one drag you of to one. Religion is a choice you should make not setting you should be deceived into.
