Depends how long it all takes I think, I doubt anything could be done with CNN fast enough to influence viewers. If they get rid of people like AC the viewership goes to 0.

fbiorsherifflol

it was post covid, but doesn't matter, I'm not the one retard bag holding an asset that at best goes up 5% a year (enjoy fixing that AC unit bud) but you probably forgot you're paying 100% of the asset in interest over the length of your contract? you probably didn't even know that when you signed the dotted line lmao

DolanTheCaptan

I have a hard time seeing how PSUs are going to be jacked up much. Their core function is to take 230V AC (if you live in a civilized country), filter out noise, and turn it into a variety of voltages up to 12V in a filtered state, all while handling load changes. That is a much less complicated and very different job from processing. It'd take a spike in material prices or by some weird alignment of stars for capacitors to start becoming very expensive for PSUs to change in price.

Canadian_Border_Czar

Personally I just buy a big spotlight at shine it on my ISPs headquarters, then flicker in binary.  The real problem is that my spotlight runs on AC, and it's not the 802.11 kind.

kingdongalong1

I do work in the industry yes. I work for a major equipment manufacturer selling to data centers. I'm not talking about DX CRACS. I'm talking about AC Chillers. WC builds while more efficient are limited in my experience primarily because of water usage concerns built into lease agreements

Groovey_Dude

Well some people state that AC stations by like any other company have more “variety” than the iHeartMedia ones such as either having more currents/90s/2000s stuff and less 80s or simply more 90s/2000s stuff with less 80s but around the same amount of current titles. Others believe AC doesn’t even have variety anymore due to big companies except on locally owned stations and they might even believe AC should go back to soft rock re add 70s music and even add softer new titles too mixed in with let’s say Taylor Swift and Maroon 5.

Lost_Percentage_5663

Paradigm shifted. AC can't defeat nowadays GTA or Elden Ring stuffs. All they have are dead IPs.

Upstairs_Whole_580

It was 100% about the performance for me. The tenants was never a problem. I was maybe lucky. I know I was priced a bit below the market, but I always had a waiting list. I COULD have hired a management company... and was considering doing that. I had one that was willing to manage all the properties for 3.5% of net income... which wouldn't have been bad. One wanted 7% and they had better reviews so I was kinda debating that at the time. So I could have stopped dealing with the maintenance and all that. I did cry myself to sleep for about a month when I had to put new AC units in one apartment complex. A 40 unit building. 3 identical 40 unit properties, in 2020, 750K for a new AC unit for one of them. Now they were all the same age and the other two were fine(they'd had some repairs, but still). But, I wasn't outsourcing that yet so it was just non-stop. My Dad, now 70 spent \~15 years working basically a full-time job... he basically got a work vehicle and free tools out of it and never expected more. So I was in an enviable situation there. Even when I sold it, despite all the time he'd put into it, the sweat equity and even co-signing for me when I was younger, 7 figure loans. He asked for nothing in return. Best day of my life was when the 15 acres around his house, the hole reason he bought the house he bought, there were 15 acres, a tower and then farms on either side and a nature preserve behind it. That went up for sale and they were going turn it into a sub division(most likely). I'd put 15% into an account for him and my Mom and invested in nearly all the same equities I did. NVDA, AMZN, META, GOOGL, MSFT, AVGO and then bonds. That was in late '21/early '22. The owners came to him first and he said he didn't want to buy... and I was able to buy it for him. He was never going to take the money and his entire sentiment at this point is to make sure he leaves enough money for his kids. So I told him take it, build a house and it'll be worth 3X what he spend in 30 years. That was the best thing that came out of all of this. And... he didn't even sell any of those stocks, he just felt more confident in taking money out of his Roth and he's building a beautiful house and my Sister is moving in the house they were living in. 2 houses on about 20 acres 15 minutes outside of the City. It's a pretty cool little set up. Anyway... sorry, that was way off topic.

Finally, I’m seeing a relevant comment. I don’t understand where all this hate for Ubisoft comes from (yes, they’re not doing too well at the moment, the management needs to change), but I don’t think Tencent invested those €1.16 billion randomly. If I’m not mistaken, Far Cry 7 is in development, as well as AC Hexe and AC Jade. They need to cut some of their fixed costs (they have way too many employees) and increase the quality of their games in order to recover (oh, and yes, without media scandals). As for me, I’ve started accumulating; I bought at the price of €6.5. I’m sure they have a budget planned for several years, and even if a bear market or a crisis comes, they will still release what they planned.

Good luck trying to have a decent conversation about Ubisoft on Reddit. You'll just get a bunch of dumb gamers thinking they're smart by repeating some flavour of "Ubisoft bad". Truth is, they don't even know what Ubisoft puts out other than Assassin's Creed and imagined a world where Shadows was bad and a flop. Anyway, as others have said, it's a risky investment. They are huge (slow) and desperately need a turn around as they are losing money every quarter. They did initiate the turn-around however and the latest quarter, while not great, was at least encouraging. Anno just came out and seems like it did decently. There are a bunch of projects coming up that might have some impact. The Avatar DLC is coming out alongside the movie, which might be a good opportunity for the game. Hyped up cross-media tends to boost games quite a bit. Ubisoft also has a bunch of other TV series coming. Star Wars seems to have done decently on Switch 2, Assassin's Creed Shadows might do decently too. A whole bunch of remakes are also coming, Prince of Persia and (rumored) AC4 and Splinter Cell. Those might do well. It seems like a turning point to me. If you believe they can pull off straightening the ship, now's the time to buy. In you think they cannot, there's still a chance a making money off of a buyout. I like my chances, honestly. I personally think Ubisoft's biggest issues are optics, people have convinced themselves that Ubisoft only makes bad games. It's not as bad a hole to dig themselves out of as actually making bad games. TV series might be a good step for this (worked wonders for Fallout). I'm also looking forward to the new Heroes game. The demo was pretty good. It's not exaclty a Ubisoft game, but it might strengthen their IP.

CG_throwback

Not only about performance. I don’t like the headache. Replacing an AC system. Leaky pipes. Finding new tenants. Just a huge no thank you.

MHWGamer

ubisoft is trash and everyone is hating it. GenZ brainwashed gamers play f2p games and couldn't give a shit about new "ubisoft" titles as they literally don't know any banger game that is from ubisoft. The management with Yves stays the same, the employee count is insane and there have nothing in their pipeline to convince anyone that they are not trash. Ubisoft will get bought by china or suadi arabia... doesn't change that for the next 5-10 years, they literally can't change the direction they are heading (aka right into the trash bin). Even AC doesn't farm on the mindless gamers anymore

silverfutes

Imagine being Pharaoh, literally god on earth, sweating his nuts off cause he didn’t have AC. I can’t even get a second date when they find out my truck AC is out.

Canadian_Border_Czar

Still need a realtor to really sell that "nice cross breeze" aka no AC you peasant.

TenderfootGungi

I have talked to family and friends that are retired. Some are OK living on SS alone. One owned a modest home outright. They had less than $100k in savings at retirement and is doing OK because they only use it for emergencies (e.g. AC broke) and keep it invested. Another is doing OK with no savings, but had to move into a small income adjusted apartment. They pay like $500 a month rent and their kids live nearby. But I also know several that are struggling. One owns a house, but it is not in good shape and they cannot afford to fix it. They borrow money from my parents to get groceries towards the end of the month (they always pay back). And had to have someone gift them a car. To attend a family event, like a birthday, the family has to send them the money for gas. And that is with people giving them stuff constantly (an old coworker has a standing Walmart food delivery). My favorite is the one that found a house with a "mother in law" apartment built in. They technically live in the same house but have separate entrances. But yes, that is exactly what you described.

BackgroundUnusual428

Do you hear yourself? I guess AC isn’t in their vocabulary. 🤡

>Tickets for everything, not just movies. I still have my $12.50 AC/DC ticket from 1983. And sadly ppl have considered that as normal, which sucks.

SoulStripHer

Tickets for everything, not just movies. I still have my $12.50 AC/DC ticket from 1983. Entertainment is a disgustingly overpaid industry.

thejumpingsheep2

Yes if your electricity is cheap then this is all moot. In CA, we are billed about $0.35/kwh on average I would say. More during peak hours which are critical times of the day, and less in super off peak which is from midnight to 6am. Its a total rip off over here with peak hours costing around $0.50. This is why we want batteries. A lot has happened since my post above. Enphase never did figure it out. They just kept making the same product with very minor upgrades. Their battery system is still the worst money can buy. SEDG is making a comeback despite their lousy track record with inverters failing. They had lost tons of market share but are not getting it back because the only other competitor is SMA who bought TIGO to have their own optimizer. ENPH remains popular with installers because its easy to install but you can see the tide shifting back to SEDG. ENPH dropped the ball big time. They did stop advertising their battery system as "AC coupled" and are telling the truth that they are plain DC batteries. Instead they are now advertising them as "safe low voltage" batteries which is still BS.

cashflow_

I have no clue. its like 65-75 here year round. Also don’t use AC

Thisispaartaaa

Assassins creed odyssey is a fucking awesome game....Valhalla is pretty dope too....Valhalla was the first AC game I ever played, loved it so much, I bought the older odyssey...it was even better than Valhalla!

ChaseballBat

It's a townhome, 2k sf with AC and huge garage, either way not buying isn't a good sign when they were selling fine 5 months ago

ChaseballBat

My home has been on the market for 75 days, ~13% price drop from the price I bought it at in 2022. 830k to 699k. Started listing at 740. Also every single time I do a price drop redfin redoes their value to be like 4k lower so it looks over valued... Not to mention the other identical houses are valued at like 760k. And multiple sold between 760-775k less than a year ago without AC (mine has it). Not a single, not one, low ball offer. Nothing. It's a townhome so it's a slightly different/worse market than single fam, but still... It gets tons of compliments but people who want it aren't putting offers out. Getting under 700k definitely produced a ton more showings but ugh. Literally negative equity AND closing cost blows dick as a millennial... Got about 4 more months till the GBC kicks in... Shit is rough out here.

Adept-Grapefruit-753

I'm well-aware why I'm being downvoted and don't really care, I'm not interested in Reddit for the karma. I understand that my frugality reaches to an extreme level which is not sustainable for most people in the US that allowed me to reach homeownership a lot sooner than most. And you're not completely wrong about my attitude, although I'll modify it for you; my attitude is that most people in their twenties could afford a house if they cut down on consumption. Lattes and avocado toasts? Sure. But also they can choose to cut many other things that could make a significant difference – vacations for one, while saving for a down payment. Eating out: one commenter mentioned that this could add up to 5k a year for just the weekends. Cars: my city is not considered particularly walkable by the majority and everyone insists on having a car, but it is not as necessary as claimed. The list goes on and on and one does not have to cut all of them to afford a home within, say, 8 years of saving, *especially* if it's a two person household, but an average person cannot maintain every luxury they have while also complaining about the unaffordability of homes.  What I see in my everyday life is that my peers insist on maintaining every convenience while also desiring a home. Life is about compromises and they are not making any.  I don't see any problem with having a car, eating out, using AC, avocado toasts and coffee, having children, or taking vacations – that's perfectly fine if those are one's priorities. Everyone is free to spend their money as they please. The problem is the fact that people complain about renting forever if they're unwilling to forgo one or two or three of them. It seems that the main barrier to homeownership is the down payment as usually the monthly payment of renting vs owning are approximately the same (plus or minus a few hundred dollars depending on location). Saving for a down payment is a temporary endeavor, and people are not saving even temporarily, and I'm sick of those who feel entitled to every luxury possible at all times in their adult life. 

bearhunter429

I consider them as part of AC2.

nyse25

Unironically yes. Shadows just barely above Odyssey though. I hate the RPG AC games that have disregarded the lore in favor of grindy and tedious mechanics.

AC3 sucked too. AC4 was good though.

If you want someone to turn the AC down do you tell them to turn the AC down or do you say, “is it hot in here” or “I’m kinda hot”?

Successful-Tea-5733

I think the question is really do you want to be a long distance landlord? Me personally, I would not. I don't think you have a tax problem, your gain is well within the $500k allowed. And historically equity returns have outperformed real estate returns. The only real advantage with real estate is leverage, you have a bit of that here because you could keep your low interest mortgage. If it were me, I would only keep it if I thought I might move back in the next 10 years. I think mathmatically you are better off in equities and you're never going to get a call at 3 AM from VOO or QQQ telling you that the AC went out or the plumbing backed up and an emergency repair costs $10,000.

Depends on the house you’re buying and where you’re buying it, but almost certainly… yes. Too many expenses scale with the house: - property tax - utilities - the work required to keep it livable - cost of replacing windows - cost of replacing one of the two furnaces or three AC units. And so on. I’m sure there are places where you can get a relatively simple house for 20 million. Places where the value is in the land or location. But those are few and far between. Normally this cost means the house is going to be big, complicated, and expensive to maintain.

xViscount

Find your top 3 coolant AC providers. When they start missing expectations or barely beating them, your bubble is popped. Until then. Pure vibes from me.

Bcider

I'm handcuffed to my house. Deck is falling apart, AC units are 25 years old. Got quoted absurd prices to replace so fuck it. 40k for two 3 ton AC units and furnace. Equipment prices for them are 10k at most. They'd be a full replacement, my house is already ducted to 2 older furnace/ac units. I'm supposed to pay 30k for 2 days worth of labor? Get the fuck out out here.

RogerDCuck

It didn't flop, no AC game can flop lol and I am part of people who hate modern AC more than anyone else.  Even Syndicate the least Successful AC game, the game that made Ubisoft change the whole series sold like 5.5 Million and I dont think AC Shadows was as disastrous as Syndicate. 

Moise_makes_me_moist

I don't want to give Elon any ideas but Did you know Thomas Edison (father of DC power and often called a charlatan) once got a death sentence changed to use Nicolas Teslas AC power to electrocute someone to show the dangers of AC and how it can kill you.

ButterscotchFeeling9

The last good Ubisoft game was AC: Black Flag

mardex_5

No, that claim isn’t true. Before Musk joined, Tesla already had founders (Eberhard and Tarpenning), a real business plan, technical direction, AC Propulsion drivetrain agreements and early engineering work based on the tzero concept. Musk didn’t create Tesla from a spreadsheet, he became the main investor who accelerated and scaled an already existing startup. First investigate and check your statements before writing...

No-Necessary-9026

J1772 is only single phase AC. As the MW goes up (DC fast charging) it’s either CCS or Tesla NACS. So far most brands are opting towards Tesla- Hyundai, Mercedez, Rivian, Kia. On top of the fact that Tesla still owns most superchargers for all those that use an adapter.

As a black jack dealer in AC my advice would be: always chase your losses. Hit up the ATM. The next shoe will be better....or it won't. Dont forget to tip your dealer!

I give AC shit for its gameplay but the open world studio can indeed make a pretty and detailed open world.

ThatOneGuy012345678

In the Northwest US, much of the generation is hydro electric facilities along the Columbia river, and for the most part is in the middle of nowhere. This means that where the people live and where the power is generated are nowhere near each other. There's a 1000 mile high voltage DC link (Pacific DC Intertie) from Celilo, Oregon (far north east) to Sylmar, California (near Los Angeles-ish). Losses on that line are only 2% or so, and you can move 3000+MW. I believe China has similar issues with their hydro facilities. Ultimately you can't really pick and choose where your hydro facilities are (can't really move a river, and the ideal hydro facility locations are wherever they happen to be), and if there's no people living nearby then that's that. With other power plants like nuclear and gas, you have much more flexibility, so they tend to be located closer to population centers. The eastern US and much of Europe is set up with power being generated closer to loads (in general). Moving power long distances is no problem. Sure, it takes transmission lines and sure, it costs money to build and operate those lines, but it's not as big of a deal as people think. 'A big deal' in the power industry is not the same thing as 'a big deal' in the general economy. Building a bunch of transmission lines will be 'huge' in the power industry, but is rounding error compared to the $30T US economy, or AI spend, or any number of other things. There's High Voltage AC links all over the place too. 300 mile lines for AC are very common. I'm not too knowledgeable about the European system, but I can almost guarantee that the difficulty and cost of building lines has a lot more to do with people problems than with engineering. China has shown that lines can be built very fast, and very cheap, if you steamroll over the people in the way. They've built an insane amount of generation and transmission in the last 30 years, and that level of building is probably orders of magnitude more than was built in the US during that timeframe.

Sheshirdzhija

But solar panels also peak at approximately the same time as AC?

TheHammer987

EVs are a bullshit problem. They charge at night. When the grid is at its lowest. In Texas, there are financial incentives to run your dryer in the evening because there is so much more power available. Guess when electric cars do the bulk of their charging. And guess how much power they use? Oh look! It's a 240 outlet, the same as a dryer. Many electric cars can use the 110 outlet instead, but literally no one ever says our grid can't handle people getting window mounted AC units. This is *anti ev propaganda* , it has no basis in reality.

buttplugs4life4me

It's so sad cause I loved Far Cry 3 and AC 4/5. FC3 was literally why I bought an AMD GPU back then to use Mantle with it lol Such a downfall. I hope someone picks up the pieces and makes proper games again.  It felt like they tried to switch to a FIFA/sports game release cycle with a new version every year with some minor updates and new characters and that's just not the right type of game for that...

extremelyannoyedguy

DC HV power distribution is already cheaper for longer distances and becoming more economical for shorter distances. AC is no longer a requirement.

shizuo-kun111

As much as I did enjoy AC Shadows (although it was flawed), even Tsushima was leagues better than it. Shadows only has it beat on its open world.

ChaseballBat

I bought a house in August. I've had my house on the market since late August/Early Sept. Zero offers. It's priced 130k under its value in 2022. Initially priced at 80k under and 50k worth of price drops. Nothing. Earlier this year same exact townhome sold for 775 without AC. I will end up paying 40k and have zero equity if we close after this last price drop. It is 100% all this administration's fault.

Since the Covid it has been a zombie corp, and the woke path that they chose ultimately killed the last brand that was carry on the financials (AC). Most likely, given that they are French, the government will chip in for supporting them, but I see literally no-one interest in buying them without the French government concessions for massive layoffs…..

They really blew it with Dragon Age: Veilguard and doubled down with AC: Shadows. Both had huge upside potential.

After TheCrew drama and new AC games

ThatOneGuy012345678

Sure, when electricity was invented, it wasn't used for much other than lighting. Then came the washing machine. Then came dryers, refrigerators, etc... then stoves, then came AC, computers, then EVs, etc... There has been a gradual transition to electric for everything because it's the most efficient form of energy use (generally speaking). At this point, natural gas is used for heating only because burning gas at a power plant, and shipping electric to you doesn't make economic sense. But replace that natural gas generation with renewables and it can make economic sense if renewables are cheap enough. Induction stoves are also an improvement over natural gas and are slowly starting to take over. They're not like crap electric stoves of the past. 30% of energy is not lost from generation to home, not sure where you're getting that from. Typically 2-3% is lost over long distance transmission and about 10% is lost in distribution. If you really want to split hairs, a lot of fossil fuels are 'lost' too (flaring at oil pumps, leakage out of fracking sites, etc...). If you're going to count one you have to count the other. There's a lot of 'losses' in fossil fuels too. The lowest 'loss' fossil fuel is coal because very little of it is lost as it's a mineral and doesn't release gas as a byproduct of mining it like natural gas/oil.

No idea on their economics, but from the dev and consumer side: - The crew franchise being inferior to a direct competitor + stopkillinggames - Their suscriptions being inferior to game pass and ea - The division 3rd game (and the phone one?) got shafted - Talking about tom clancy's, no idea about ghost recon, siege probably doing ok - Was it the splatoon copy theirs? And that rollerblade? And some other - How the fuck did they got away with trackmania as a suscription? - Nadeo and red lynx (trackmania and trials) not incorporated like those studios who became "Ubisoft cityname" - AC, Far Cry probably carrying financials, R6S esports side maaaaybeeee? - Idk about that avatar game which being a 4A game feels like I should - Tried to join a lot of tooling towards the snowball engine or whatever is called because currently they are 4(?) actives engines. Studios didn't like it. - Rayman, rabbids, HoM&M stalled. It seems a *bit* too big to work properly but I don't shit, too busy playing wii shovelware to make profit as a multinational

I bet Trump has something in mind big for westinghouse he keeps talking about them to foreigners. I was thinking it was something nuclear but maybe its more something battery or even better high-voltage DC current transmission lines like China has got. The 'issue' with solar is that you have to 'get the energy to where you want it' since it uses real-estate far away from where the electricity is needed, mainly (obviously some fits inside cities, just not as much as square acres in the country). One solution is water electrolysis on site such that you have Hydrogen (H2), Oxygen (O2), Water, and Electricity all as possible 'products' such that you can distribute the 'load' (the yield, more like) of the incoming electricity in diverse ways such that the distance-to-consumer problem is less egregious. The other problem, is, yea, doing AC is obnoxious it takes a lot of equipment but it's 'necessary' for any-sort of long range transmission -- but that is kind of an anachronism; China has thousands of miles of HVDC that pumps serious juice straight from direct current sources to direct current consumers.

I’ll never forget when I first started in 2020. Bought an airline company (AC.to) and lost $40 that same day. I nearly cried that night, was depressed all day and thought I was a failure. Now my portfolio jumps +/- 5000 per day just from shares.

SpeakCodeToMe

I agree with this comment and I think you can extrapolate it further into all of the downstream companies that have been buoyed by this. It is affecting every company that has anything to do with data center build out from AC and refrigeration to chips manufacturers. It is affecting the energy market and energy companies. There's a whole batch of companies that have grown up around the idea of providing small modular nuclear reactors largely in an effort to meet the demand from these data centers. It is affecting commodities miners and refiners who are scaling up to provide the rare earths etc for this massive build out. I read an estimate the other day that almost the entirely of GDP growth so far this year can be traced back to AI and data center build out.

raj6126

The plan makes no sense. BTC mining uses open air no air conditioning. Servers need air conditioning. So retro fitting facility with AC will cost an arm and a leg. They should just build new facilities.

Yeahhh I had 80k or so in losses (I stopped looking after 60 cause why torture yourself when you’re havin fun.) I got a free weekend in Vegas and a couple weekend rooms in AC. Nothing fancy. So yeah I think the number is over 100 if you wanna just get free shit thrown at ya all the time.

9ninjas

I don’t gamble. That’s a thing??? AC?

Gladiz1972

I can't even remember the last time I was in Vegas 15-20 years ago I used to go a lot back in the 1980s and 90 s stayed at the Mirage mostly .By the way sorry to hear you lost money in these casinos me personally I have been around casinos since 1980 or so in AC at the old Playboy Club Casino I am always looking for an angle to beat these casinos especially with those bubble craps machines

GEN-RL-MiLLz

Your grandpa's a pussy. My dad would blow 100k in a night before he went out of business easy and he wasn't shit. This wasn't even vegas it was AC. Sound like grandpa was a fucking T tottling liar anyway and probably lost his money buying college degrees for everyone but you.

You have to look into one of these, sometimes it's easier to just pay someone who has one [https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tahOcp+XL.\_AC\_UF894,1000\_QL80\_.jpg](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61tahOcp+XL._AC_UF894,1000_QL80_.jpg)

pmotiveforce

You sound extra retarded. Tariffs aren't going away you dope, even if AC blocks these specific ones.

Great question! I posted the below on another sub some weeks ago, and I think it answers your questions nicely. I'm happy to discuss any of it with you. \------------------------------- Early on I think I realized that ["momentum" is a real thing](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0927538X18303998?via%3Dihub#preview-section-references) that could be exploited. That was confirmed for me in 2007 when I bought MCHFX, the Matthews China Fund, simply because it was going up, and *it doubled in 10 months.* After that experience I made a website, MutualFundUpgrading, to talk about MF momentum and how to "upgrade" from poorer-performing funds into better ones. (The site is long since dead.) Then in 2016 SILJ, Junior Silver Miners, *doubled in 4 months*. That's when I got serious about momentum investing. Fidelity Select Funds are Mutual Funds that cover about 35 sectors of the market. For a long time there have been people [momentum-trading them](https://www.google.com/search?q=fidelity+select+momentum+strategy&num=10&sca_esv=5314ac5036c6a181&rlz=1C1RXQR_enUS1137US1137&sxsrf=AE3TifOdnoEiAf0lJqzNkHqUZXjEpNlgcw%3A1761258757914&ei=Ba36aJPFN8jLp84PnOSK2AU&ved=0ahUKEwjT2_2UsLuQAxXI5ckDHRyyAlsQ4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=fidelity+select+momentum+strategy&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiIWZpZGVsaXR5IHNlbGVjdCBtb21lbnR1bSBzdHJhdGVneTIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYRzIKEAAYsAMY1gQYR0jSElDWBliKDHABeAGQAQCYAWKgAcQBqgEBMrgBA8gBAPgBAZgCA6AC0wHCAgcQIxiwAhgnwgIIEAAYogQYiQXCAggQABiABBiiBJgDAOIDBRIBMSBAiAYBkAYIkgcDMS4yoAejDLIHAzAuMrgHzwHCBwMyLTPIBwo&sclient=gws-wiz-serp). I was trying to get the guys at work interested in it, so I paper-traded it in real time, writing my picks on my whiteboard. Over the first **quarter** of 2017 the system returned 14%, vs. the S&P's 3.9%. And the drawdown on February 3rd was just a little worse than SPY's. And only 6 trades over the 3 months. Then I drifted away from that into some other things, but now I'm back and focused: Momentum on ONLY ETFs. And I use LEAPS Calls on those as stock substitutes. Also selling Covered Calls against those.

arbitraryBlue

They forgot to turn on the AC in the Oval Office, that's why that guy went down lol

R12Labs

Well Singapore is extremely rich and I've been told in Asian countries when you're rich, you get driven. All I'm saying is I don't want 80k fucking trucks with nightvision and a heads up display I want a truck with AC, heat, a radio, and roll up windows. I understand the elites want us all in debt but it's insane a car that will rust out in 10 years is the 2nd biggest purchase in your life behind your house. Ten year old cars with 100k miles are now 12 to 15k and it's disgusting.

TexansforJesus

Milan has AC, Inter, and fashion. Miran has…

NotAHost

100%. I agree that more oil reduces energy costs and benefits the economy, but so does more solar lol. Like I’m looking at adding solar to my house just as a redundancy and so I can crank that AC to 62 in the summer lol. Practically free energy is good.

NotAHost

The wildest part is how against solar the US is. Like my god, it offsets high demand from AC during the day, it’s redundant, adds more capabilities, lowers costs. It’s ok to use oil products, but don’t put all your eggs in one basket lol. Australia is floating 3 hours of free energy during peak solar hours. It’s absolutely insane. China also going wild. USA is like… it’s too woke, whatever that means.

OTMallthetime

5 million copies is what I saw as far as numbers go, in 6 months. To quote tech4gamers : "it had a strong start but it is currently their lowest sales in the series across the last 5 entries". Its the first AC game I didn't bother buying/playing in some capacity. The last far cry didn't impress me either, even if I am a big fan of Gus from BB.

CoffeeMaker999

This is a pet peeve of mine. The place we moved into has all kinds of shit painted that isn't supposed to be painted include wall outlets, AC vents and some (but not all) woodwork.

MrBudissy

Did y’all not hear the 37% increase in fraud loss mentioned in the call? $50 million for the quarter. AC is a cancer for this stock and company.

New_Ad_1682

Do you rent or something? I have a lawn guy, a pool guy and a cleaning lady and even I change my own AC filters. 

aaron-roger

not being able to trade in me underpants today cuz they're coming at some point to change the AC filters 😭

MondayNightRare

What they're trading at makes no sense. Between operating well and having awesome patents on AC current solar tech they seem like they should be trading at triple digits, yet they totally crashed from their ATH. Why is the market so bearish on them? Is it all the hate against green energy from the current administration?

jensenskawk

Ceiling fan? Those are AC motor and lasts forever. Just needs a clean and oil in the motor shaft.

Rosebunse

I could afford the furnace but the issue with my AC is that I would have to replace the electrical because the electrical sucks. And really, having fans all over the house wasn't too bad and the electric bill didn't go up by too much

skychief99

80% of home owners cannot afford to replace their furnace or AC without maxing out multiple credit cards if they actually have enough room on them.

LandCruiser76

I'm so sorry friend. If it makes you feel better, I live in a 1k sq ft duplex that I fully renovated and installed new AC, Electrical, Full LED conversion, windows, insulated flooring, and insulated the roof. And that bill was this month, where I ran the AC for like 1 day and the heat for 3. I'm scared for the winter months.

PainUser1490

I cannot even begin to tell you how jealous I am that $200 is a high electric bill for you. Mine nearly hit $600 a month this summer in NJ, and I kept my AC set at 72, which is barely tolerable to me.

BusinessOutside8613

Can’t afford cars? Really dude? You could have gone for so many things but you chose the worst example. Compared to US, the whole Europe has an extensive network of roads and highways. What do you have? Route 66?. Also, Europe has a good network of railway that allows good connections even to the smallest villages. US has like 3? And what is this obsession with AC? Europeans are not going crazy if the indoor temperature is 1 degree higher. The hot weather is to be enjoyed. Most of the office buildings have it anyway. Coming from somebody that lives in a country where you need a pill to sleep and one to wake up, is hilarious.

Successful-Tea-5733

You don't think that Tesla effective creating a mass market EV (something that GM's attempt and failure is what led to the origianl guys starting Tesla), you don't think THAT is a legitimate accomplishment? No he was not the original founder of Tesla; but without him it doesn't even get as far as Delorean, people still only think of Tesla the father of AC electricity. You can dislike Musk as a person, but to discount his business success just makes you look ignorant.

ChaseballBat

That is irrelevant to the comment. However, Identical homes, and I literally mean identical sold 6 months ago for high prices WITHOUT AC and higher interest rates, meaning something has changed since then. The entire point I'm making us... The market is bad, it's a bad sign.

ChaseballBat

I'm not asking you for advice? Lol. I know how the market works. I'm priced like 30k under a 1:1 comp from June and that one didn't even have AC.

Elibroftw

I don't think so. I loved AC, but mirage was such a disappointment in terms of value and how much bigger it could've been that I'm going to scrutinize every single AC game that comes out of Ubisoft.

iyankov96

The lead of Assassin's Creed left the studio and he was replaced by one of the founder's family members that worked on a NFT crypto mobile game. Just when you thought AC hit rock bottom, there are always more surprises.

Chrishall86432

What are you having for breakfast tomorrow? What shampoo are you using and where are you buying it? Do you have plumbing, heat or AC in your home or place of business? Are you paying your Citi CC or utility bills this month? What brand of car do you have? Who’s your mortgage with? Do that. Invest in that. Nobody’s mopping the floor, wiping their ass, or eating breakfast with chips or semiconductors or any of that nonsense. To be fair, invest 10% of your portfolio in a good tech ETF.

hxn42

Feeling better about my 700 shares @ $12 AC lol here's hoping it rips tomorrow for some decent premiums for us both : )

Annual_Nail_2176

Lol that’s not what it says. The conditions for the boards proposals are clearly listed in the disclosure that they filed Friday afternoon, these proposals were made after the previous dilution. I put the link to disclosure since you didn’t read it. Best of luck. https://archive.fast-edgar.com/20251017/AC22L22EZZ2R2JZ2229R2ZYNI4G8OZ22N272/

AC - Air Canada

dangernext

California Santa Monica got best whether year round. Very low humidity, they actually build homes without AC units over there. I hate humidity so for me that is a W. Low dew points year round
