2023.06.07 13:34 Naurgul Ukraine dam: What we know about Nova Kakhovka incident • A huge dam in the Russian-controlled area of southern Ukraine has been destroyed, unleashing a flood of water.
![]() | The Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant is in the city of Nova Kakhovka in the Kherson region. The city is currently under Russian occupation. The dam is one of six that sit along the Dnipro river, which stretches all the way from the very north of the country into the sea in the south. In Kherson region, Russia occupies the left, or southern, bank while Ukraine controls the right, or northern, bank. The dam holds back a reservoir equal in volume to the Great Salt Lake in the US state of Utah, according to Reuters. It's huge - locals call it the Kakhovka Sea as you cannot see the other bank in certain places. submitted by Naurgul to europes [link] [comments] Stills and video showed a massive breach in the dam, with water surging through it and flooding downstream in the direction of Kherson. It's unclear when exactly the dam was first damaged, but satellite images suggest its condition deteriorated over a number of days. Hundreds of people living in low lying parts of the city of Kherson, less than 50 miles downstream from Nova Kakhovka, have been evacuated, 2,000 houses on the Ukrainian-controlled right bank of the river had been submerged and the Nova Kakhovka station was "fully destroyed" and could not be restored. The river has also been contaminated with 150 tonnes of industrial lubricant. There are concerns about desertification, with agricultural land washed away by flood waters and the negative consequences of the flooding likely to be felt for years. At the same time some 94% of irrigation systems for agriculture in Kherson region were now without a water source, the ministry added. It's not yet clear what caused the breach in the dam, but Ukraine's military has accused Russia of deliberately blowing it up. This seems plausible, as Moscow may have feared that Ukrainian forces would use the road over the dam to get troops across the river into Russian-held territory, as part of a counter-offensive. But the Kremlin instead blamed Ukraine, calling it an act of "sabotage" that would deprive the Crimean peninsula - an area annexed by Russia in 2014 - of water. Neither Ukraine nor Russia's claims have been verified by the BBC. |

![]() | Hi everyone, submitted by dawn2055 to PBBG [link] [comments] An update has been added to DAWN 2055 introducing a artificial intelligence driven encounters alongside regular encounters. These react dynamically to various factors, such as players stats, area it takes place, it can talk about player created gangs, top players, etc. Also it can reward players with some items or npcs can join player's group. Overall I think the potential is quite huge, especially for simplebrowser games or text based games. Encounters are generated using OpenAI API service. The game now features both regular, pre written encounters, and new AI driven ones. The new encounters can be differentiated by the way their text is generated incrementally (the same as chatGPT, if you have used it). There are still some quirks to be ironed out as it has just been implemented, but overall it works quite good! Blow are some examples: Here player has a high level, scout speciality and bandit reputation and the ai driven encounter reflects that. Black Dragons is a gang made by players Here encounter is about a real player Kalimero A random encounter with where player meets an npc Dawn 2055 is a post-apocalyptic themed android / browser game focused on player driven sandbox world. |

2023.06.07 10:01 N_a_m_a_n010 Essential Tips to Choose the Right Electric Car
![]() | Electric cars have become popular as the world approaches a more sustainable future. With zero tailpipe emissions and less operating costs, electric vehicles (EVs) are a viable option for eco-conscious individuals. However, choosing the right and practical electric car can be a daunting and demanding task due to the diversity of options available. You can certainly check out the electric car price in UAE, but you may make the wrong choice if you don’t know what you want. submitted by N_a_m_a_n010 to u/N_a_m_a_n010 [link] [comments] The point is simple, to assist you in making an informed and effective decision, this post has compiled several essential tips that you should consider when selecting an electric car. After all, the right tips will help you choose the best option. https://preview.redd.it/z9lcr0uuyj4b1.png?width=800&format=png&auto=webp&s=3e9ed0344794160a1ca56adc34dcc0d7dc550b5b Decide Your Needs Assess your driving habits, even including daily commuting distance, the incidence of long trips, and charging infrastructure in your area. This sort of evaluation will help you understand the range requirements and even the charging capabilities your electric car must have. This way , you can be sure that you know what you need and choose an option accordingly. Consider the overall Range Examine the range offered by different types of electric car models. Ensure that the range fulfils your daily driving requirements, with some buffer for unforeseen circumstances. Consider factors such as weather conditions and additional power-consuming type of features. Set a proper Budget Establish a proper budget for your electric car purchase, considering the expense of the vehicle, potential tax incentives or even rebates, and the cost of installing a home charging station. This way, you will know exactly what you will be spending. Check Charging Infrastructure Research the availability of charging stations in your area, both at home and in public locations. Ensure that you have convenient access to charging facilities, and consider going for a home charging station for an added level of convenience. After all, you don’t want to experience discomfort later, right? https://preview.redd.it/7c1s0mtyyj4b1.png?width=3000&format=png&auto=webp&s=fd8b955ad6705e5b8d557f71c36ee2973824ec6a Battery Life and Warranty Investigate the overall battery life and warranty offered by the electric car manufacturer. Decide the battery's capacity degradation over time and ensure the contract covers a reasonable period. A longer battery life and comprehensive warranty can provide you with the utmost peace of mind. Overall Safety Features Prioritize overall safety features when selecting an electric car. For example, look for advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), like lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, even automatic emergency braking, and blind-spot monitoring. This way, you can be sure that you get the best experience. Performance and Acceleration Evaluate the overall performance capabilities of different kinds of electric car models. Look for quick acceleration, even smooth handling, and overall driving experience. Consider factors such as horsepower, torque, and even the electric drivetrain to make sure that you get an enjoyable driving experience.

Utilize these opportunities to drop the overall cost of ownership. Of course, when you have the incentives to make the most of them, you should know about them well. Charging Time Understand the overall charging time required to replenish the battery of your chosen electric car. Different types of models have varying charging capabilities, ranging from standard home charging to even faster DC fast-charging options. Consider your regular routine and determine which type of charging speed aligns best with your overall lifestyle. Look into the Maintenance and Operating Costs It is important that you do compare the maintenance and operating costs of electric cars with their overall gasoline-powered counterparts. Electric cars characteristically have fewer moving parts and need less maintenance. Additionally, they offer you a lower level of fuel costs and potential savings on maintenance and even repair expenses. Of course, what is the point if you end up buying an electric vehicle that demands a lot of maintenance from you? so be careful about it. Manufacturer and Model Reputation Investigate the overall reputation of the electric car manufacturer and the particular model you are considering. Look for reliability, customer satisfaction, and even long-term performance reviews. A reputable and effective manufacturer with a dependable electric car model ensures a better ownership experience. If possible, do Test Drive and Research It is important that you give yourself a chance to get an idea about the car. Yes, it is helpful if you do schedule test drives with multiple electric car models to experience their overall features first-hand.

By following these mentioned essential tips, you can definitely make an informed decision and pick an electric car that aligns well with your lifestyle and even preferences while contributing to a greener future. You will definitely own the best electric car in UAE once you make a thoughtful choice. |
2023.06.07 09:09 Teban54 [Analysis] Community Day Haxorus with Breaking Swipe for raids: One of the many dragons
![]() | TL;DRThis is not a meta-breaking CD for raids. Not even close.A small upgrade for Haxorus. Made it go from the bottom of the "group of non-shadow non-Rayquza dragons" (Salamence, Garchomp, Palkia, Dialga, Zekrom) to the top of the group. But it's "just" equal to them, not meaningfully above, and still worse than Breaking Swipe Rayquaza and shadows. Great chance for new players to build a dragon team. But if you already have a L40+ dragon team, L40 Haxorus does very little to you, being equal to what you have. The good thing is, L50 Haxorus > L40 non-shadow dragons (though <= L40 Shadows). And Haxorus will be the easiest dragon to go L50 after CD. Keep reading for:
IntroductionAxew Community Day happens this Saturday, June 10 (for Pokemon #610!), from 2pm to 5pm. Any Haxorus evolved before 10pm will know the CD move, Breaking Swipe.The move Breaking Swipe made its debut in PoGo back in February, as a raid-exclusive move for Rayquaza. While players quickly recognized it was an incredible move in PvP, its impacts on raid attackers seemed like a nothingburger at first, with a low power of 30. However, I wrote an extensive analysis that showed Breaking Swipe performs better than Outrage on Rayquaza in practice. Despite a lower best-case ceiling (raw DPS), its speediness makes Ray more consistent than the powerful but sluggish Outrage does. Haxorus never had Outrage to begin with, and until now, its only dragon-type charged move was Dragon Claw. This means Breaking Swipe is a much clearer upgrade on Haxorus as a raid attacker. But how much of an upgrade is it? Does it help Haxorus stand out among dragon types, one of the most contested attacking types for raids? I'll answer the question with the following parts:
You can now follow me (@teban54) on Twitter! Since this post is too long, Reddit may not allow edits after publishing. Should there be minor changes or bug fixes, I will mention them in a comment. Part 1: Dragon-type Attacker Charts[Part 1 TL;DR] Haxorus rises from the bottom of the group of sub-Rayquaza dragons to the top of the group, but still not above the group, and still can't reach Rayquaza or shadows. Great chance for new players to build dragon teams, but those with dedicated teams will need XLs to see benefit. L40 shadows >= L50 Haxorus > any L40 non-shadows.Dragon attackers ranked by their average in-raid performance, using ASE and ASTTW. Charts of ASE with and without dodging are here. Note: Kyurem with Glaciate would have performed similarly to most non-shadow non-mega non-Rayquaza dragons, whenever ice is also super effective. I'll start by noting that when it comes to dragons, I usually focus more on Estimator (left plot) than TTW. The former considers relobbying, which happens quite often for dragons, because they may take a Super Effective dragon move from the boss. Breaking Swipe is a clear upgrade on Haxorus, but only a small one - 3.4%.
Despite this, Haxorus still remains within this group - it can't rise above them.
Accessibility (XL) matters...The above only talks about attackers at the same Pokemon level. Any Level 50 non-shadow dragon outperforms another Level 40, regardless of what the two Pokemon are.Fortunately, Haxorus will be the easiest dragon to get XL candies of - and power up to Level 50 - just after this CD.
For hardcore players that have already powered up Shadow Salamence and Shadow Dragonite to L40, they're better than Haxorus at any level. Part 2: Haxorus compared to all other non-shadow dragons[Part 2 TL;DR] As a glass cannon, Haxorus performs very similarly to non-shadow non-Rayquaza dragons, and worse than Rayquaza. Interestingly, it stands out in cases when most other dragons get OHKOed, thanks to added consistency from Breaking Swipe.Haxorus vs. other similar Dragon attackers (L40 best friends) Reminder: I'd prioritize Estimator for dragons due to relobbies. Looking at estimator, we reach the same conclusion as Part 1 - Haxorus is just as good as every non-Rayquaza dragon now, maybe slightly above a few (Dragonite).
However, Haxorus is consistently worse than Rayquaza (that has Breaking Swipe).
Pros and Cons of HaxorusPro 1: Haxorus has great base attack and DPS.
Part 3: Did we miss out by not getting Outrage?[Part 3 TL;DR] No. Breaking Swipe is the best Haxorus could have hoped for.Breaking Swipe vs. Outrage on Haxorus (L40 best friends) If you plug in Outrage to the GamePress DPS/TDO spreadsheet, you'll see that it has higher DPS than Breaking Swipe. That's why, for a long time, players hoped for Outrage as the CD move. However, I already showed that even on Rayquaza, Breaking Swipe ends up being better than Outrage. Haxorus, being even glassier than Rayquaza, appreciates a spammy move like Breaking Swipe even more than Ray does. It simply doesn't have the bulk to use Outrage reliably, and Breaking Swipe is basically tailor-made for a glass cannon like this. In fact, if you compute the average estimators and TTWs (plot from last time), Outrage ends up being a downgrade from even Dragon Claw, which is itself worse than Breaking Swipe. The detailed comparison of BS vs. Outrage on Haxorus would have been extremely similar to Rayquaza, so I'll omit the details. Part 4: Shadow Haxorus?[Part 4 TL;DR] Shadow Haxorus ends up a bit ahead of Shadow Salamence, mostly because the latter "underperforms", not that the former overperforms. But otherwise, the same conclusions from the non-shadow discussion apply to shadows.Obviously this will not happen anytime soon, but something interesting can be said about Shadow Haxorus with Breaking Swipe, whenever it does become a thing... Future dragon attackers ranked by ASE and ASTTW. Charts of ASE with and without dodging are here. Note: I omitted shadow legendaries other than Rayquaza due to accessibility concerns. The only future shadows shown here are Rayquaza, Haxorus and Garchomp. Remember when I said Haxorus and Salamence are very similar? Yet, when you compare their shadows in the chart above... Shadow Haxorus has a small but firm gap ahead of Shadow Salamence. Why? Shadow Salamence, despite it being one of the best dragon attackers right now, is actually underperforming. Whereas Shadow Haxorus doesn't underperform that much.
However, I do not encourage anyone to heavily rely on this info for current and future investments. We have no idea when we'll get Shadow Garchomp, Shadow Haxorus, or multiple Shadow Rayquaza. Plus, it's higly likely that Palkia and Dialga will have their signature moves by then, and their shadows would have destroyed the competition. Given how unpredictable the future is, I wouldn't advise against building Shadow Salamence and Dragonite now, nor would I specifically prepare for Shadow Haxorus.
Closing RemarksUnlike many pseudo-legendary or "almost pseudo-legendary" CDs, like Tyranitar (for 2018), Metagross, Garchomp (which I felt was overhyped) and Hydreigon, this CD's impact on raid attacker rankings is probably far less than what you may have imagined. This is not a meta-breaking CD, not even close.CD Haxorus's role ends up being similar to Salamence when its CD first happened in 2019, but even worse - a tiny upgrade, excellent option for new players, but does little for well-prepared players. But this time, "well-prepared" went from "whaled out 6 Rayquaza" to just "did the biggest CDs of the past". I'm actually okay with it, though. Practically everything has changed from 2019 to 2023. And today, it's harder and harder to make new raid attackers stand out from existing ones, most of which already have shadows and/or overpowered moves. Not all "big hype" CDs can be meta-breaking, and not all of them need to be. If anything... This is much better than Goomy and Jangmo-o will be, assuming we're only talking about raids. And I'm sure not everyone treats raid relevance as the sole reason to care about CDs - otherwise, Noibat CD wouldn't have been nearly as hyped as it was...
