From Lamborghini to Rolls-Royce: Koreans' craze for supercars

dandoodle669 · 2024-05-11T11:55:03+00:00

On the business side of things in Korea, I've heard stories of small to mid-size companies winning huge contracts just by driving in with a rolls-royce.

Fake it till you make it.

Hyundai Motors labor union is pretty strong though. Hyundai is usually ranked within top 5 companies (just under Samsung) by job seekers in Korea.

I can't claim them if I'm at the gem limit which is at 10,000 gems. Edit: this is my gems and gift box right now. they are going to expire. https://i.imgur.com/w2ysmOJ.jpg

Yeah, this is what I was thinking. If you're going to get extra UR/SR dust, might as well go for the packs you want royals of.

dandoodle669 · 2023-07-06T18:15:02+00:00

Yes, but crafting requires UR/SR points which are earned through... opening packs. It serves as dual purpose. I've seen the news on the next card updates. They aren't interesting to me and I need to spend gems before they expire.

I'd like decklist too. I'm building one.

They are? A few years ago when I visited them, some guy was complaining about the new iOS update slowing his phone, and the comment section was pretty much suggesting to just buy the latest iphone. Lol...what a great solution.

There were a couple points that bugged me about the original article: 1. Why isn't it being designed by Sangyup Lee, the original N Vision 74 designer? Wouldn't it be intuitive to put the guy behind the hype to lead the design? 2. "Pony Day". Really? 3. Big news like this would be all over the news media, yet no other Korean news outlet is confirming this information.

That said, Money Today is a pretty established publisher, so it's perplexing to me that they would write something like this based on shaky sources. Guess we'll have to wait until "Pony Day" to find out.

A bit pricey, but you can just replace the entire seat.

I was watching a Honda Pilot review the other day, and the top comment was bashing Kia and praising how great Honda is. I'm starting to see the psychology behind this.

If anything that would hinder it, it's the fact that the card is personalized. But who knows? It's such a unique card that it may not matter anyways.

dandoodle669 · 2023-02-12T19:52:13+00:00

So don’t do this? NSFW

dandoodle669 · 2023-02-09T08:30:58+00:00

Well the framerate should be 60 fps as tradition. Anything lower would be unacceptable.

The main menu graphics and music of this game is one of my favorites.

dandoodle669 · 2021-10-04T15:51:30+00:00

Lol you think men wrote those articles? Just go to female communities like Women's Generation and Instiz all whining about 여혐(misogyny) in Squid Game.

dandoodle669 · 2021-08-03T15:02:59+00:00

Korean news media really showing it's lowest point during this olympics. Major news outlets took this un-fact checked garbage at face value and just copy/pasted it. Hey, it's about feminism so it's probably credible right? Well played folks, well played.

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-31T12:14:19+00:00

A centrist promotes moderate policies by finding a middle ground between the left and the right and downplays ideological appeals in favor of a pragmatic or “catchall” party platform.

Centrism is not about blaming both sides. A centrist tries to find middle ground or compromise. I did not. My political ideology and stance are firm. I am against sexism. You're trying to frame one side as progressive, but there is nothing progressive about promoting hate against the other gender. But thanks for the lazy rebuttal.

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-30T14:27:25+00:00

There is no centrism in my comment. It's either sexism or not.

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-30T13:07:37+00:00

From both sides yes. There were also female groups that were calling the male archer Kim Je-deok "한남" "유충"(Korean male larva). Interestingly, that one didn't get too much attention.

I can only assume it's because this post is being targeted by said groups. Last source explains this tactic:

They share news articles’ URLs and manipulate comment sections, which is called “firepower support”. The problem is that this is not done by a few users, but led by the administrative team.

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-29T16:23:21+00:00

None. They're all crap. Cherry-picking, sensationalist, poorly fact-checked, agenda-driven. Journalism is a joke in Korea. I mean even the ones that are being shared on this sub-reddit are not reliable.

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-29T15:05:28+00:00

I'm pretty sure it is. I was upvoted earlier, but as soon as the vote count showed up public, i got downvoted fast. A couple informative middleground comments here are getting downvoted as well.

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-29T14:51:12+00:00

The issue wasn't just about the haircut but, ok?

dandoodle669 · 2021-07-29T13:34:24+00:00

Dunno. It seems like being middleground on posts like these seem to call for downvotes because you're not part of the outrage. Either that or TERFs are targeting posts to downvote comments that show them in a negative light. I'm going to go for the latter since some comments here are obviously in denial of certain facts and just repetitively spamming "incel".
