@Killdeerrr@hellspatisserie You can opt out of having some of your paycheck deducted and instead pay it all after the end of the year. Its hard to know your exact total tax responsibility until the year is over which is why the amount deducted per paycheck can be wrong.
@cjgrvster@Thrwboy@yrnch1 The 56 sq miles is only Miami proper. You need to have elements from many other places like Miami beach, Fort Lauderdale, other neighborhoods for a full representation of south florida. And its also worth saving resources for other parts of florida like rocket launch sites, etc.
@TraderIggy@gtasix_ Its common for trailers to announce pre-orders are open. Also it would be crazy for pre-orders to start before showcasing proper gameplay. Nothings guaranteed ofc.
@Xmiteless@Mr_Vivekji@brewmarkets Depends on when you got into Telsa. Its basically at the same amount as its 2021 peak right now. The first year is gonna be really volatile with all the lockups expiring.
@Elwood_B__@future42org@grok I would be interested to see sources of Sydney official embezzeling funds. I don't doubt it happens, but I fear a lot of outrage online is unsubstantiated or exaggerated.
@Elwood_B__@future42org@grok You started this thread by claiming the annual budget is $200 billion. Embezzlement & scams occur, but requires substantiation like this: https://t.co/iZhy2GRqLX
It is not exclusive to one party, and I think we should all be careful with how evidence is presented online.
@Elwood_B__@future42org@grok For 2026 Link has an estimated cost of 9.60 USD per revenue kilometer. Sydney Train's annual report is 9.46 USD per revenue kilometer. https://t.co/knKu5UMXYJ

@Elwood_B__@future42org@grok Sound transit operates the link light rail, sounder commuter trains, and longer express busses. Sounder and link add up to 144 miles of track. I'm curious where you got the $5.4B number for Sydney. It would be nice to compare operating expenses and planned expansions separately.
@Elwood_B__@future42org Transit in America is overpriced, but $200 billion is not the annual budget. Sound transit's 2026 budget is $3.3 billion with $1.9 of that towards expansions.
@PaleoAnimist@cafreiman Median disposable income is similar or slightly higher. Norway is probably better for those in the bottom 20%, but honestly its an outlier county with large natural resources relative to its population.
@aaronnagy1987@Erdayastronaut Re entry heating scales really quickly with velocity (V³ for convective heating, and even higher when radiative heating kicks in). Unless there is a breakthrough in material science, Lunar and especially Martian return to Earth would need ablatives.
@kitsuneredFES It seems like they gave it a larger budget, and probably already had the engine to work off. A lot of shots (including 3D cutscenes) in the trailer also had nice comic book style framing.
@SabtheGvrian@ApollonianRubby A couple could have wanted a child, but not a child where they would have to burden themselves for the rest of their life to take care of and worry who will take care of their child when they are gone. This suffering could be avoided by allowing abortions.
