Andris Kulbergs (AS) wrote the day after the elections that the work of the Cabinet of Ministers continued, and thanked the voters for their trust in him and the UNITED LIST. He stated that the party had also won in the Bolderāja polling station in Riga. Kulbergs pointed out that President Edgars Rinkēvičs had invited all factions to a meeting, the UNITED LIST first, and congratulated it on its historic victory. He added that there was no space for 41 faction deputies in the Saeima and the Presidential Palace. He described the coalition meeting after the elections as the calmest he could recall, stating that the issues were dealt with swiftly. In his opinion, after the elections, coalition partners and journalists showed less interest in the everyday work of the Cabinet of Ministers. Speaking about a possible tax on Netflix and other streaming platforms, Kulbergs opposed its implementation, pointing out that it could hinder cooperation with the USA. He said that the USA currently ranks 15th in terms of Latvia's foreign trade, behind Russia, and mentioned discussions with American entrepreneurs, the Hollywood industry, and security and the deployment of US forces in Latvia. According to him, during the Latvian president's visit to the USA, the US ambassador had organized a meeting for the Latvian business delegation with about 300 high-level entrepreneurs, while HBO had already arrived in Latvia for talks. Kulbergs estimated that the streaming platform fee could generate about 600,000 euros but emphasized that those costs would likely be borne by consumers, with subscription prices increasing. He believed that the funding for the Latvian film industry could be found in other ways, including reviewing the SIF programs, and he criticized the Ministry of Culture for not finding a solution without a new tax in four months. #Latvija #vēlēšanas #politika (translated)

Holii, yo entiendo que mi relación fue publica y que hay gente que le gustaría que hable sobre eso, pero realmente no tengo ganas de hacer notas, ni mucho menos ir a programas porque no estoy bien y de ánimos ni les cuento, no quiero salir de casa! Pero todo es muy reciente y obvio me duele, pero mi forma de arreglarme es aislarme hasta que yo me sienta bien y me sienta digna que me vean! Pero más que nada este comunicado va para la gente que trabaja de esto y se que no lo hacen con ninguna intención más que comunicar, pero si no les respondo porfi no me insistan, porque más mal me siento al saber que estoy perdiendo oportunidades…. Pero en otra oportunidad seguro hablamos de algo mejor que me esté pasando en mi vida. Gracias 🩷 #BienestarEmocional #SaludMental #AutoCuidado

~ Punchline, Banger y MMR ~ Holi bonitos ~ Como les dije, quería explicar estos 3 conceptos antes de que sea demasiado tarde y se confundan, hoy tendremos la beta de Aha y me espero que la primera Eón jugable manipule los 2 recursos de su vía como le de la santa gana (≧▽≦) También tengan en cuenta que, según leaks, los primeros 2 conceptos deberían cambiar de nombre pero no por ello de funcionalidad, así que simplemente se memorizan el nombre nuevo que vayan a dejarle y ya está ദ്ദി・ᴗ・) Intenté hacer las definiciones lo más fáciles de entender, pero cualquier duda que tengan adicional más técnica sobre la fórmula del daño o interacciones, háganmelas sin problemas (❁´◡`❁) Ah, y un par de cositas que no quise incluir porque quedaba muy largo: - Las ults de Yao guang y del EMC activan un aha instant pero con punchline fijo, eso no interfiere ni toma en cuenta el conteo original de Punchline que tuvieses, y hacen daño si o si con los 20 de Punchline que consideran - El banger en los stats no te muestra cada valor individual porque sería un listado enorme, en su lugar te "agrupa" los que les quedan los mismos turnos restantes - Sw puede ganar MMR también con su Elation skill destransformada y con su rastro, donde si un Aha instant fue considerado con 20/40 de Punchline, te dará esos 20/40 de mmr de forma adicional Y el juego da 20 banger al inicio, en realidad nunca supimos por qué, simplemente lo regala si hay unidades Elation porque si o((>ω< ))o #Aha #MMR #Gaming

“Between 1979 and April 2024, we recorded 66,872 Islamist attacks worldwide. These attacks caused the deaths of at least 249,941 people. • 1979-2000: 2,194 attacks and 6,817 deaths. • 2001-2012: 8,265 attacks and 38,187 deaths. • 2013-April 2024: 56,413 attacks” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “The military is the main target (34%) of Islamist terrorists, ahead of civilians (27.7%) and police forces (15.3%). • 1979-2000: military (343 attacks, 15.6%), civilians (530 attacks, 24.1%), police forces (408 attacks, 18.6%). • 2001-2012: military (1,410 attacks, 17.1%), civilians (2,506 attacks, 30.3%), police forces (1,424, 17.2%). • 2013-April 2024 : military (20,556) - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “Most (86.3%) of Islamist terrorist attacks have occurred in Muslim countries1. Similarly, the vast majority of deaths from Islamist terrorist attacks (88.9%) occurred in Muslim countries” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “Number of Islamist terrorist attacks in Muslim countries: 57,726 attacks (86.3% of Islamist terrorist attacks worldwide). Number of deaths caused by Islamist terrorist attacks in Muslim countries: 222,236 deaths (88.9% of deaths caused by Islamist terrorist attacks worldwide)” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “In this study, we define “terrorism” as political acts that meet the principle and criteria of the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (START). In this context, a terrorist act is presented as “the threat of the effective use or use of unlawful force and violence by a non-state actor in order to achieve political, economic, religious or social objectives, through fear, coercion or intimidation”8. This definition is extended to the enumeration of a set of characteristics specifying the nature of the terrorist act: – it must be intentional and result from a conscious calculation by the perpetrator; – it must include some level of violence or threat of imminent violence, whether physical or material; – the perpetrators of the incident must be non-state actors” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “To complete without unduly complicating matters, one can refer in particular to the definition proposed by Edward Walker, because of its relative clarity and conciseness: “By ‘Islamism’, I mean the normative political ideology that has as its core program the establishment of Islam as a state religion and the implementation of Islamic law (shari’a). Militant Islamism, then, is any form of Islamism that advocates the use of violence to achieve Islamist objectives. This same distinction is made by Islamists themselves, who refer to ‘Parties of the Islamic Call’, or al-da’wa al Islamiyya (i.e., Islamist groups that do not advocate violence) on the one hand, and ‘Parties of the Muslim Revolution’, or al-thawra al-Islamiyya (i.e., Islamist groups that do advocate violence) on the other hand14. Acknowledging that there are no universally accepted definitions of Islamism and terrorism, some researchers characterise it as an ideology whose key tenets include: – Belief that Islam is not only a religion, but also a holistic sociopolitical system; – Advocacy of shari’a (Islamic) law as divine state law; – Belief that a transnational Muslim community, known as the Ummah, should unite as a political bloc; – Advocacy of an ‘Islamic’ state, or Caliphate, within which sovereignty belongs to God” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “We have recorded 66,872 Islamist terrorist attacks that killed at least 249,941 people between 1979 and April 2024. Number of attacks: 66,872 Number of wounded: 192,598 Number of deaths: 249,941” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024 “The possible estimate” should be between 300,000 and 400,000 deaths considering the victims of Islamist terrorism in Algeria, according to the hypotheses based on the best-known sources and the most reliable studies” - Islamist terrorist attacks in the world 1979-2024

~ PEARL ~ Holi queridos~ Tablita informativa de Pearl, nuestra primera (y... supongo que única) sustain de Elation ~ Ya les dije lo clave que es para cualquiera de los equipos de Elation que hay, menos Aventurine usado con Ashblade Es un pull muy recomendable para los que quieran mantener sus equipos de Elation a la altura de lo que piden los endgame (❁´◡`❁) Y ahora a explicar cada apartado, aunque es un personaje bastante simplón （￣︶￣） - SETS - Generalmente la mejor opción en reliquias es el nuevo set que saldrá (puede activar el de Yao, pero normalmente lo llevará Yao), el cual también lo podría llevar un EMC o presuntamente Nihilux en el equipo, para que al momento de farmear también les guarden piezas o((>ω< ))o Al tener una ult cada 2 turnos también es una excelente spammer del set viento, aunque eso es algo ya más nicho que tienes que valorar antes de cada combate si llegarás o no a aprovechar El kit de Pearl pide defensa% para ganar Elation% y también para volverlo su "barrera" que mitiga daño, así que es su stat favorito junto a la SPD En ornamentos por ahora no hay mucha cosa, pueden dejar Vonwacq para buscar esos 3 turnos ciclo 0 o simplemente para tener el 2do turno antes de tiempo, pero tengan muy en cuenta que quizás con Nihilux llegan unos nuevos, porque la vía tiene 2 supps y ninguno de ellos un ornamento que apoye Sino pueden simplemente dejar pues algo de eso, cualquiera support como City, Lushaka en Sparxie, Quilla, ETC - CONOS DE LUZ - La mejor opción F2P es, como no, nuestra querida Seta con sus deliciosos 10% de Vulnerabilidad Para quienes tuviesen un cono adicional de Yao guang pueden también dejárselo a ella, es... de hecho mejor que su cono propio (≧▽≦) Y por último ya si su cono promocional, el cual en general es bastante mediocre en amplificación, pues únicamente otorga 12% más de vuln que la seta y en estos equipos tiende a haber ya mucha vulnerabilidad, así que el aumento real no supera los 8% En una de las últimas betas le introdujeron un cambio al cono que... tengo que destacar, porque muy situacionalmente en combates largos puedes llegar a generar una ult más con ella y ahí si gana algo más de valor Pero lo más importante es que esa energía la gana cuando usa "Elations skills", y quién más que la propia Aha podría darle a todo su equipo más Elation skills de lo normal Así que los que están dudando, simplemente esperen a tener el kit de Nihilux antes de tomar cualquier decisión ~ #Elation #Pearl #GamerGuides
