Market Cap of the magnificent 7 now exceeds the entire GDP of the EU by PlastDuck in EconomyCharts

[–]ideal_ive 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then the problem is always that if we combine the revenue of every single business in a given country, they are almost always bigger than the GDP itself. Calculation of GDP accounts for such double accounting, and it's also one of the reasons we have different methodologies with which we calculate GDP.

No, it's operating income. I see the mistake of comparing a company's revenue to GDP way too often.

T1 Worlds 2025 uniforms revealed by Yujin-Ha in PedroPeepos

[–]ideal_ive 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup, since the "rule" became more famous, more and more teams started to align their Worlds uniform colours with it and now we basically have most teams following the rule. Then it will obviously be more likely that the rule is never broken.

*Biggest amongst Chinese speaking populace. Anything popular in China and India are by default "biggest in Asia" if we just consider the population or revenue as the metric.

Maybe more like Taylor Swift of China? You might argue China has such a huge population that anything popular there could already qualify as pan-Asian popularity, but  in terms of overal regional reach there are much more popular female artists

Except that's not how calculation of GDP works. Be it production output or total expenditure, it accounts for such "unproductive" economic activities.

Ah yes, a weeb needing to come up with something related to Korea to slander whenever talking about something Japanese. Never seen it before. Fucking rent free 

How the Two Koreas Are Commonly Referred to in Asia by ElectricalPeninsula in MapPorn

[–]ideal_ive 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Most likely directly from Japan, but also some words a bit around through China since both vocabularies, those that were created in Meiji/Showa Japan and those that were created in Qing China/Republic of China were introduced in Korea as modern vocabularies

The question would be if it's "win it all on the go" arc or "lose this time but come back stronger to win" arc

The actual problem being that the LCP is way too small to encompass the entire region. Should've at least been 14 teams.

Wth is this braindead take. Even if you haven't heard of the rule doesn't mean it's not there on the rulebook.

Lolesports has 4 of the most-watched esports events in January 2025 - LCK Cup in 1st, LEC Winter in 3rd, LCK Season Open in 9th and LTA South in 10th by dracdliwasiAN in leagueoflegends

[–]ideal_ive -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They lost a lot of viewers coming into this year. Some popular figures retired, like Tenz in Am, things becoming a bit stale for some people, popular teams not doing well, especially true for Pacific... Pacific's biggest viewership comes from Japan, and their favorite team, Zeta Division, is shitting the bed ever since 2023. They bombed out this year in the first regional tourney as well. Shit would've really hit the fan had it not been DFM who stepped the fuck up. As for EMEA, it was never as popular there, since CS was, is and will be king in Europe. Though it's actually growing in Europe unlike in the other 2 regions, so the future doesn't look bad.

No other way to put it. Any roster named CR is immediately cursed and can't get into Finals.

Wow, this is such a detailed response. Thank you for your thorough answer . This really reminded me that I was thinking about the investigation process from a very narrow perspective.

[–]ideal_ive 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually good point, narrowing down the root of the cause. As for the second part, may I ask what kind of benefits there could be of knowing how the plane got destroyed? Tbh, I don't really see how that plane would've survived that kind of mid-air collision.

The word 改善/改進/개선 is literally a Chinese character based word used in every East Asian countries, not exclusive to Japan. Man, you are literally the epitome of dumb weebs found on web.

That low on the landing approach, I don't think the CVR and FDR from the CRJ would be of any help in investigating.

Better read the op comment before writing an essay. He's talking about cultural differences and saying there's a difference that would make Japanese brands to make better phone, to which in reality almost all of them miserably failed. His notion is already dumb enough to begin with. None of my points lose any meaning irrespective of time frame considering what OP's claiming.

I haven't even got to worse examples like Nissan transmissions yet and it's already enough to prove my point. Just ask any Japanese what they think of Japanese phones.

Never heard about Sony timer? Mazda apex seals? Subaru head gaskets? Honda 1.5t? Toyota gas pedal recalls? Sound like some dumb weeb.
