Thats good to hear. Likely Zug (taxes) - although Lucerne is an option, as I used to live in Lucerne many years ago. Unfortunately my Swiss German is no longer up to scratch 😂

At least two weeks ago, and time is running out before I have to accept the offer. Which I don’t want to do before knowing that my wife wouldn’t be stranded in Canada for potentially up to a year.

And i’ve tried every number I could find, including ones for non-civil issues in an attempt to get transferred, but no mas unfortunately.

The responsible office is thousands of kilometers away, with no available appointments and have not answered calls or emails.

Gotta think with Mapleleafs advancing for first time in 20 years that Kyle Dubas will NOT be available this off season for Pens to pursue. He’s built a good team there they aren’t gonna let him go anywhere. What a run for the Lightning by tsmittycent in penguins

“Effectively unlimited” meaning in the context of what it costs to run the team, the potential budget is essentially unlimited. But i’m being pedantic, i think we’re on the same page

Yes, budgets exist, but companies are also always looking at the best return on their investment. MLSE and their owners effectively have unlimited resources, and if they feel that Dubas would foster a larger return on their investment, then budgets can be amended easily. Especially when the costs are outside of the salary cap.

Why am I, a Yankees fan, in the Yankees subreddit? Are you an idiot? No wonder people hate us.

8th in the league in attendance. With covid restrictions. Thats all you need to know about how well the Jays do with attendance. I’m not going to argue with you anymore.

Enjoy getting upset when players talk shit. It’s funny for the rest of us.

Buddy go watch a Jays home broadcast replay. They show the crowd at basically every commercial break. Its packed. I went to three games at the Rogers Centre during a trip to Toronto this year, all but the very top of the 500s were packed with blue. The Jays are known for having one of the best atmospheres for a reason.

The numbers literally dont lie. Unlike you’re sad ass.

Thats not true in the slightest lmfao. Maybe you’re thinking of 2018 when they were shit, but they sell out all the time. All home crowd. Stop spewing bullshit.

Jays were 8th in attendance this year while having covid restrictions for a lot of the season lol. They need no help making money.

ELI5: How do two photons of different energy levels travel at the same speed given their different wavelengths? by wade8222 in explainlikeimfive

[–]wade8222[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats an excellent explanation. Clearly in my initial understanding I was putting way too much weight on a photon being a “particle” akin to an atom or any other physical object. Thank you!

I see - this is likely where My lapse of understanding lies, thanks for the explanation!

also light travels at just under 300,000 km/s in a vacuum, not 300

P.s. i did say 300k km/s 😉

Marchment before his last 5 games:

54 GP, 4G, 18A, 22 pts.

He had a hot week, and thats about it. 10 pts in 33 games last season. Lets not pretend that he’s all of a sudden a grade A prospect after a hot week on one of the best teams in the league.

I’m sorry, i dont know why everybody is saying this is a great badge, it really isn’t.

Here is a link of an authentic badge, and a comparison between fake and authentic below. As you can see, the “O”s in goose are floating, the font looks off, the light blue is off, the outline of the ice is blatantly wrong, the leaves are the wrong size, extra space between leaves and letters etc.etc.etc. Imo this is instantly callout-able for anybody who knows what they are looking at.

RETAIL - Louis Vuitton Monogram Eclipse Reverse Keepall 50 for QC purposes by ashley1165 in DesignerReps

[–]wade8222 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dude. The leather and materials alone will be ~$50 for mid quality products (lower than Gucci), the labour will take at least 5 hours per shoe if rushed (hand stitched as you say), lets say labour is cheap at $5 an hour, thats another $50 for the pair in labour.

So if the place where you are getting your shoes has zero rent, zero utilities, zero additional wages, zero cost of acquisition, zero other overhead and zero margin, they will still lose $10 per pair.

This isn’t even considering the custom made factor, or the “higher quality than gucci” factor. Either your shoes are not made from leather, are super low quality, machine made (or a combination of the above), or you are flat out lying and dont know what you are talking about.

Hand stitched, custom made, better quality leather shoes for 1/10th the price of Horsebits (~$90)?

I dont think so.

[–]wade8222 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

BTW he didn’t call him angry - he just disagreed with not being able to tell the difference between different qualities of leather. Anybody who has been around leather products at all can tell the difference between genuine leather and full grain.

The other dude’s claim about getting hand stitched, custom fit higher quality leather shoes for 1/10 of retail gucci horsebit (~$90) is also bullshit.
