Optimize Fleet Payments through Fintech Innovations-M2P Fintech

Fleet businesses experienced significant revenue growth in the past few years for two primary reasons. One, the evolution of fleet management systems that enabled digital solutions like telematics-based route optimizations and the emergence of fleet aggregators. Fleet management systems have radically disrupted the rather traditional fleet industry by integrating modern technologies and services into the value chain. According to recent reports, fleet management systems as an industry is estimated to grow 14% yearly to 6.8 million units in 2025. As the current market penetration is hanging around 10% for the entire commercial vehicle industry, the growth potential is tremendous. The emergence of fleet aggregators has enabled seamless order and demand management and has generated great opportunities to stabilize and monitor productivity leading to sustainable profitability and growth.

And two, the government of India had initiated several digital policies such as FASTag-based toll collection, digital e-way bills, and compulsory installation of GPS devices in commercial vehicles to tap into the day-to-day fleet operations data.

The kind and the furious

When humanity was welcomen in the stars, nobody knew what to expect of these deathworlders. Their world looked stunning. Full of life. Well, mostly. They had serene places, fruit trees neatly arranged. Sure, the tectonic activity was on the high end of the spectrum, but perfectly livable. But then, you noticed the animals. The arms race of evolution. Predators that evolved to avoid other predators. Hervibores with toxines so potent as to wipe out the largest predator animal in the galaxy. Predators that somehow evolved to resist those toxins and other ludicrous natural defenses. It was... madness, to most of the galaxy.

Humanity spread far and wide. They had looked into the dark abyss of space for a long time, and now that they could roam trough it, they went everywhere. Small human settlements started to pop up everywhere. The races were cautious, but this new species seemed like a good neighbour. So they welcomed them, still unsure as to how to clasify them.

Untill a disaster happened. A huge chain explosion in a residential area. Buildings collapsed and fire roared. The emergency response teams were overwhelmed. But they, with time, managed to quench the fire and control the situation.

And then, the humans came. With their personal vehicles. From neighbouring cities. From far away cities. They started to clean the rubble, even if it was not their duty. They helped the victims. Looked for survivors. Cared for them. Healed them. Sure, kindness and help from your own species was expected to a degree, but from another species? It was unheard of. You cared for your own. But humans were different. They were kind to everyone. They helped as they could. Preparing meals. Setting up tents. Moving rubble... And every time a survivor was found, they cheered with enthusiasm.

The galaxy at large looked at them. And humanity was labeled as the kindest species in the falactic collective.

That is, until it was found what had happened. While moving rubble, some metallic carcass was found. One that was traced to an explosive from a species outside the galactic empire. Tensions rose. War broke out a couple years ago.

Humans joined the war. Everyone thought they were kind. Everyone tought they would provide support.

Everyone was wrong.

When humans started fighting, they showed why they were the dominant species of their world. Sure, they did not have vicious claws. Sure, they did not have venoms. Sure, they were not armoured. But they were smart. They were cunning. They had planned for stellar warfare before we found them. They already had devised strategies. Simple, brutal strategies.

Humanity grabbed the biggest asteroid they could find, strapped some rockets to it and launched it straight to the enemy positions. Their fleet, guarding behind it. Using it as cover. When tvey were found out, they jumped to defend that asteroid. They were a small group agains an entire planet. Nobody tought the humans could win.

Everyone was wrong.

Humans fought with all their cunning and might. They fought with ferocity and ruthlessness. Disabling thrusters and energy systems first. Then leaving the poor enemy ships to die. They were no longer a threat. The asteroid advanced and got into descent orbit. Impact was inevitable. And the humans left. They had done their job. A quarter of the world was wiped from the initial blast. The rest of the planet was uninhabitable, and would be for a long time.

Humans fought. Their strategies evolving. Changing to counter their enemies as they started to be prepared. Always a step beyond. Always with a new warfare solution. Orbital bombardment with titanium rods, cloaking technogy never seen before, new ship designs seemingly every day.

Humans fought. Captive humans found ways to escape prison and sabotage the enemy from within. Wounded humans went to fight again while still recovering. Their savagery in limit situations scared allies and enemies alike.

The war ended with the enemy surrendering completely. Mostly thanks to the humans. Peace was signed. And then, the humans sent aid to the defeated enemy. Cargo ships full of medicine and food started arriving. Human troopers helping with the reconstruction efforts.

Humans, like their homeworld, were a race of extremes. Capable of the biggest acts of kindness the galaxy had ever seen, but also the most furious and savage acts when it was necessary.

Hope you all like it. It's my first story of this kind

astro notes: daily transit 6/10

Monday. 6/10, begins the week with an apparent calm, marked by a lack of significant aspects during the day. That being said, the atmosphere is charged with tension from the impending Mars-Pluto square, suggesting an undercurrent of aggression and conflict ready to surface. The evening does bring a brief respite with a creative Moon-Mercury sextile, but Mercury’s challenging aspects to Mars and Pluto later at night prepares us mentally for the confrontations of the following day.

Lack of Significant Aspects During the Day The lack of significant aspects on Monday might lead to an expectation of a quiet and uneventful start to the week.

Quiet Beginnings: The absence of major aspects often indicates a period of calm and stability. It’s a time to catch our breath and prepare for upcoming challenges without the distraction of immediate astrological influences.

Mars-Pluto Square’s Looming Presence Despite the day’s calm, the aggressive energy of the Mars-Pluto square is palpable, even if it’s not yet exact.

Aggressive Tension: Mars and Pluto in a square aspect create a powerful and potentially destructive energy. This aspect is characterized by intense drive, ambition, and a propensity for conflict and power struggles.

Anticipating Conflict: The awareness of the impending Mars-Pluto square adds a layer of tension to the day. We may feel a sense of unease or agitation, knowing that confrontations and challenges are on the horizon.

Evening Aspects: Moon-Mercury Sextile In the evening, a creative Moon-Mercury sextile provides a brief moment of harmony and mental stimulation.

Creative Communication: The Moon-Mercury sextile at 7:34 p.m. encourages creative thinking and effective communication. It’s a good time for brainstorming, problem-solving, and engaging in intellectually stimulating conversations.

Subtle Influence: Compared to the looming Mars-Pluto square, this aspect is a gentle whisper, offering a fleeting moment of clarity and insight amidst the growing tension.

Mercury’s Challenging Aspects As the night progresses, Mercury forms challenging aspects to Mars and Pluto, priming us mentally for the confrontations to come.

Mercury Semi-Square Mars: Late tonight, Mercury forms a semi-square to Mars, activating a combative and argumentative energy.

Mental Agitation: This aspect can lead to sharp words, impulsive decisions, and mental agitation. It’s important to be mindful of how we communicate and to avoid unnecessary arguments.

Mercury Sesquiquadrate Pluto: Shortly after midnight (1:13 a.m. on Tuesday), Mercury forms a sesquiquadrate to Pluto, further intensifying mental tension and obsessive thinking.

Obsessive Thoughts: This aspect can bring deep, obsessive thoughts and a tendency towards mental power struggles. It’s a time to be aware of our thought patterns and to avoid getting trapped in negative or manipulative thinking.

Integrating the Influences

Preparing for Conflict: The day’s calm provides an opportunity to prepare mentally and emotionally for the upcoming challenges of the Mars-Pluto square. Use this time to gather your resources and plan your approach to potential conflicts.

Harnessing Creative Energy: The Moon-Mercury sextile offers a moment of creative clarity. Use this energy to brainstorm solutions, engage in meaningful conversations, and express your ideas effectively.

Managing Mental Tension: As Mercury forms challenging aspects to Mars and Pluto, it’s important to stay grounded and mindful of your thoughts and communication. Avoid unnecessary arguments and be aware of any tendencies towards obsessive thinking or mental power struggles.

The Galaxy Squad Campaign.

Back in September, I posted what I hoped to be the first part of a series in which I blogged about a multiple-game campaign called The Galaxy Squad: a series of inter-connected games all taking place in the same galaxy. The continuous blogging about this series didn’t happen, but the games certainly did! So I’m going to re-cap that series now.

I’ve already talked about our Last Fleet series, so I won’t repeat myself too much, but the biggest piece of that series that we carried forward was the ending: the blowing up of the technology that enabled Faster-Than-Light travel, so as to set up the scene for Starforged. (Last Fleet play-kit)

Starforged was not a game that I ran, or managed to participate in; this series began a trend where I and another GM handed the reins to each-other every month to give both of us a chance to tackle games that were on our to-play list. We also had a higher rate of sign-ups overall for Galaxy Squad, possibly because Monster Squad ended up being a pretty big hit.

Star-Forged can be played with or without a GM, and presents the characters with Vows that they are expected to work towards to try and complete. In Star-Forged, much of the new galaxy that our players fled to was built, because this game has very good tables for setting generation. The group generated a number of planets with different power-structures, resources and danger levels, and established a number of factions with various shady goals. This included a large corporation that was funding a lot of Forge-Spawn research, as well as a cult called the Oracles of Larissa, which dealt quite a bit with the strange space-magic that certain individuals were able to wield. (Stargazer journaling app)

One of the most important contributions from the Star-Forged game involved the creation of Celadon, a wild and lush planet teeming with dangerous life. The players landed on the planet, took one look, and took off again, which meant that it was perfect for the next game in our line-up: Moth-Light.

For Moth-Light, we started with the premise that our characters would be the descendants of one of the ships from Last Fleet, crashed into a planet and reverting back to a pre-space-flight level of technology out of necessity. This is because Celadon (called Beacon by its inhabitants) was populated by gigantic, dangerous insects called Moths. We pushed the timeline forward to a point where our players could not remember how they ended up on this planet, and then put them in a precarious situation where their current settlements were in danger. The solution: to search for another, safer place to call home.

In more abstract terms, this means that we used the Promise Pact from Moth-Light, which takes plenty of inspiration from media such as Legend of Korra, Farscape, Horizon: Zero Dawn and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind. Moth-Light’s story and tone can vary drastically, depending on the kind of story we want to tell. When creating this game, I briefly entertained the possibility of playing Scavengers, which would be much grittier and harsher, but the group and story seemed to fit the Promise pact better.

Moth-Light is Forged-in-the-Dark and is a phenomenal game. While it’s FitD, the Pacts provided to the group do a lot to help you determine what kind of concept and tone you’re playing in. The typical action ratings and Stress mechanics are also re-worked in a really interesting way, making them slightly modular so that they can change to reflect the Pact you are working with. I really enjoy the prompts left on character sheets that give you just enough information to start brainstorming what these pieces mean exactly for your character. The designer also has a fantastic set of Google-Sheet play-kits that put my character sheets to shame. You need to check this game out.

After Moth-Light, our timeline had a little bit of a stop-and-start. One of the games we were originally planning to include in the lineup didn’t turn out to be easily translatable to our method of play, so we pivoted to another game intstead: Wetrunner. Wetrunner is a FATE - powered game that takes place in an oceanic cyperpunk future, and we weren’t sure where it would fit in our current galaxy.

We decided to put it into the timeline before Last Fleet, on one of the planets that was eventually destroyed by a robot uprising. There, we decided that at one point in this planet’s history, climate change and decreasing oceanic wildlife led to a great profit for folks who managed to steal aquatic life from power-hungry billionaires.

In other words, we were a diver-themed Leverage crew stealing fish from Eelon Mollusc.

This is where our Squad took a turn for the wacky. We were donning secret identities, wrestling with former connections to the Calamari mafia, and coming up with elaborate Seahorse-racing schemes to lure in our marks. It was hilarious, it was goofy, and it was a great tone-shift from our previous drama-heavy games. (Wetrunnner play-kit)

Next up: Scum & Villainy. This is where a lot of the set-up in Starforged really did us a favor. We had a lot folks at this point who were excited about Scum & Villainy, so we ended up running two games on two different days of the week. Both games were set up as bounty-hunting crews on the Cerberus, for reasons that I’ll mention later.

We started by recalling the factions we had created in Starforged and mapping them according to theme and tier. I also ported over some of the planets that had been created in Starforged, and started them out in ways that made sense, giving them levels in Weird, Crime, Wealth and Tech. Then the players created characters, and we added more details to the world based on their interests. (Scum & Villain play-kit)

For group A, this led to an investigation into Obsidian Inc, the shady company introduced in Starforged, where Forge-Spawn research invited plenty of cult-related trade and imperial intrigue. We had one player with a robot character continuing the theme of betrayal, turning on the group in the last scene, leaving us with an open-ended ending hinting towards a future rivalry between her and the rest of the crew.

For group B, we set out on an investigation of a racing circuit that was being fixed against the organizer’s will, with strange artifacts and a very humorous rivalry between the crew’s pilot and an NPC called Flick.

As a game, Scum & Villainy elicited mixed reactions. Some folks really loved the chances to experience a number of dramatic moments and heavy role-play, especially during downtime. Others found the harsh consequences from mixed successes to be a bit jarring, especially since Moth-Light, which uses the same bones, feels much more forgiving. Scum & Villainy is definitely a much closer hack of Blades in the Dark, which is meant to be pretty brutal in dishing out harm and consequences. I know that as a GM, I was expecting the Gambit mechanic to carry much more of the weight than it actually did, and if I run this game in the future, I’ll want to have a much more in-depth talk with my players about how harsh we want the consequences to be.

Last, but certainly not least, is A Complicated Profession. This is a game about bounty hunters experiencing a career change into cruise ship employees - and this is why we all played as bounty hunters in the previous games. This was a chance for anyone to carry forward a character they had already created into a new setting, and two players did exactly that. Hatchet, our Mystic, took up the mantle of the ship’s janitor, and Kalo, our former pilot, took up the role of the ship’s bouncer. (A Complicated Profession play-kit)

Once again, we were provided with a much-needed change in tone. A Complicated Profession has so much room for light-hearted comedy, and we took it and ran. Our ship is in a weekend-at-Bernie’s situation, with a captain that is totally out of commission but we need to maintain the facade that he’s still alive in order to make sure we can still get paid. We had occasional run-ins with junk pirates, organized birthday parties for alien teenagers, and solved many a problem with a food processor.

A Complicated Profession is another game that can be run without a GM, although in this case we still had one person take the role of a facilitator because a) we had too many people show interest and b) not everyone had access to the book. As you play, characters will slowly let go of pieces of their old lives, and pick up new skills to help them with their new job, including choosing a new name at the end. I have laughed so many times while playing this game and I’m so happy that this is how we decided to tie up the Galaxy Squad series.

After this my friends and I are re-organizing how we play our games, so we might not have a thematic timeline in the same way we did for Monster Squad or Galaxy Squad. But these experiences have taught me some really valuable lessons, the primary one of which is this:

Choosing games to play based on a theme will sometimes point you towards games that you may not have otherwise thought to pick up. Those games may end up being something that you absolutely love. In this case, I was very excited to run Scum & Villainy, but it ended up being the biggest let-down on the list. Meanwhile, I had never heard of A Complicated Profession before my co-GM introduced me to it, and it is now going at the top of my list of recommendations.

If you are in a game group and you have access to a number of different games between you and your friends, taking turns to try out the stuff you are all interested in will introduce you to so many games, and while not everything will be a hit, you’ll learn a lot about what you like, and you may find your next favourite game. So try stuff!!

The Hands We're Dealt

Pairing: Cherokee bill x black fem reader

Summary: Bill wanders into your town just to see you

Warnings: angst and use of the n word

A/N: finally watched The Harder They Fall and I still can't resist a man played by my future husband

It hadn't been your week recently. After all the years, the law was finally catching up to you and your gang. After all you sacrificed to build this town where your people could prosper, the man was finally coming to collect.

It started with the law responding just a bit too quick after your hits. That morning, a general of the U.S. army stepped into your town and gave the gang until next week to disperse before his men dealt with you themselves.

You sat with your brothers and sister that had been with you from the start. You would never surrender to the white man, but there was still only so much longer you could run. If there was one thing you hated, it was running, but even if you killed the whole fleet of troops the army sent, you'd never be safe in your town again. Your name would be all over the west.

Tina got your attention, the first to provide a solution instead of just talking about finding one.

"Law's not bad just two counties south from. We could set up there."

You waved your hand dismissively, reaching for the glass of whiskey on your desk.

"The further we run the further they'll spread. Do we keep runnin' til we're in the goddamn ocean?"

The room fell silent as defeat finally sunk into the air. At this rate, the only thing that could help you was a night in the saloon.

Suddenly, the call of a bird echoed into the night, and the corners of your mouth twitched. Everyone looked around curiously.

"That damn bird again."

"Where does it come from?"

They'd only hear it about once a week, but no one ever managed to see it. However, you knew exactly where to find that bird.

You stood from your chair, breaking the murmurs of confusion. "Y'all turn in; I'll deliberate overnight. Keep your senses sharp and your spirits high. I'll die before I let this town burn."

Everyone gave you a nod as they walked out. No matter how stern and sure you were, they all knew what was coming for them. In the empty room, you let out a heavy sigh before downing the rest of your drink.

Bill had waited a while at the back of your office building. Just as he was about to call again, you finally met him, walking slow as the distance closed between you.

"Cherokee Bill," you all but whispered. "In my town?"

A small smirk rested on his face as he leaned against the building. "I must've lost my way, ma'am."

You stared into each other's eyes for a moment before leaning into each other. Bill's hand rested on your hip as he kissed deep into you, hungry for you. You knew that kiss, and you knew the look in his eyes when you pulled away.

"How's Trudy?" You asked.

Bill shrugged. "Still Trudy."

"And Buck?"

"Do you really care?" Bill gave a dry chuckle

"No," you shook your head. "But I need somethin' to talk about, and I can't count on you for that."

Bill smiled as he crossed his arms. "I'm fine, by the way."

You mimicked him as an act of defiance. "I know you are; you better be."

"How are you?" Bill asked sincerely.

There were so many ways you could answer him, but what was Bill going to do about it? Even though you weren't fine, after those fifteen minutes he'd go back to his town and you'd go back in yours to fight your own battles.

"I'm fine," you said. "Need a favor though."

"Anything."

You stiffened a bit in front of Bill. Meeting like that was supposed to be a chance to unwind for the both of you, but you couldn't afford to not think of your work.

You looked up, staring Bill in the eye. "Next time Buck gets a score, make sure it ain't my fuckin' money."

Bill looked down and nodded slowly. A week ago, Buck's gang robbed a train whose company was in business with you, and Buck knew it. You hated how Buck pushed every other gang around like they weren't his people with his goals. He may have been big enough to get away with it, but you weren't going to let your buttons get pushed again.

Bill started to reach into his coat, "That's right," he pulled out two stacks of cash and held it out to you. "Here, it's my cut."

Just managing to hold back your scowl you lashed out at Bill. "I don't need your money, Bill."

"You just said it was yours." He went back at you in that exasperated tone that irritated you.

"And now it ain't," you couldn't yell and get caught with Bill in your town, but the intention came across crystal clear. "The last thing I need from you, Bill, is your pity."

Bill squeezed his eyes shut and faced up at the sky as a frustrated sigh left his lips.

"Take the money, Y/N," he stretched his hand further, his jaw visibly clenched. "You think I agreed with Rufus takin' that money from you. I'm just tryna make somethin' right."

Your face was stone as you huffed at Bill before snatching the money out of his hands, not waiting until later to count through it.

"What's the matter with you," he asked sincerely, scanning over you as if he'd find the answer in your features. "We're not in trouble, are we? I'd rather you step into Redwood and shoot me than let me ride all the way out here to chew my ear off."

As you put the money inside your own coat pocket, you dropped your shoulders. You were still livid, but you stopped directing it at Bill.

"Seventy grand, Bill. That's how much y'all took from me," you waved his finger at him. "I can't run my town off two grand and bank heists. I'm runnin' out of white folk to rob this far west."

Bill nodded in understanding as he brought a hand to your arm. "I know, baby, and I'm sorry."

His hand traveled the length of your arm, and your gaze finally softened. Seeing your curls in the moonlight, Bill brought his other hand to cup your cheek as he leaned in to kiss you once again.

You loved Bill more than anything. In a perfect world it would just be you two as outlaws together. But your hands were already dealt, and you had to see them through the end of the game.

With his hand snaked around your waist, Bill pulled you flush against his body; your hat fell to the ground as you put your arms around his neck. Softly, he pushed you against the wall as his hands and lips started to travel. As he started to push your coat off, he felt your hands on his chest.

"Bill," you called him, staring into those big brown eyes that you knew held your reflection inside. "The army's after me."

A worried crease put itself between Bill's brows. "The army."

"Yup," you said softly before picking your hat off the ground. "General gave us a week before he came back to shoot us niggas down himself. We're thinkin' of runnin'"

"To where?" Bill asked knowing the same thing you did.

"I don't know where, but..."

Bill called your name, and you knew by the look on his face exactly what he was about to say. Usually, he was only dumb enough to say it half drunk off his liquor or love for you.

"Don't you look at me like that, Bill."

As if he knew how stupid what he was thinking was he hesitated before speaking. "I want you to be safe; you and your folks."

You got angry again, stepping closer towards Bill. "And we'll find a way, but I am not moving to Redwood."

Bill just shook his head. "If I talk anymore, you'll shoot me."

"Then hold your tongue."

But he couldn't. Bill couldn't leave your town without trying everything in his power to keep you safe. He knew this ended with you dead, and so did you. For the past few years, a good part of his world lied with you, and he didn't know what he'd do if he lost it.

He said it anyway, talking fast so you didn't have long to act on your reactions. "We've got more men, more resources, and half the state's law work for us. You'd be safe in Redwood."

Bill was right; you were stuck between smacking him across the face or putting a bullet in his leg, but you stayed still with your hands balled in fists.

"Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to?"

"The woman I love—"

"Shut your mouth." The distance closed between you and Bill again, but this time the air around you turned threatening.

"I'll put a bullet in my own head before I work for Rufus Buck, stealin' from and killin' my own kin."

"Buck is building a promised land." Bill remained calm.

You spoke through clenched teeth. "He is building a dictatorship."

Bill looked away and put some distance between you two, "I don't wanna lose you, Y/N." Was all he said with a tired voice.

"But you don't ever think about what I'd lose," your words bit. "You want me to tell my gang that we'll follow the orders of the man who wronged us, and we were forced to wrong back? You ain't thick in the head, Bill."

Bill had nothing to say for himself. He thought it best just to let you talk yourself out.

"You said you didn't agree with Buck stealing from me, yet once we're done here, you'll go running back right to him."

"If I leave Rufus, I'll be on the run for the rest of my life."

"You think I can't protect you?" You cocked your head to the side.

"And what about the army," Bill started to lose his temper. "I want you in my life, Y/N. Since that shoot out in Odessa, all I've wanted is to see you next to me in the morning and take a ride out with you at night. I know how selfish I am to ask you this, but I don't care."

Your lips were in a tight line as a shuddering breath escaped you and tears pricked your eyes.

"You think I don't want the same? Sometimes all I can wonder is how easier things would be if you were here, but these are the hands we've been dealt. You make all this talk about choices, but don't ever make one yourself," you turned from Bill, starting back to your house. "Go on outta here before I shoot you dead."

As Bill watched you walk away, your dress flowing in the wind, he felt part of his spirit die. He didn't have to wait for you to get killed, he lost you all on his own. As he unhitched his horse from a tree nearby, all Bill could do was pray that you'd make a way out of this mess like you always seemed to before.

How RideBoom auto rickshaw plan is differ from rapido and ola

Here are some key ways the RideBoom auto rickshaw plan may differ from the offerings of larger players like Rapido and Ola:

Target Market:

RideBoom may be focusing more on serving the needs of traditional auto rickshaw drivers and commuters, a segment that may not be the primary focus for the larger ride-hailing platforms.

By catering to this market, RideBoom's plan could offer features and benefits tailored to the specific requirements and challenges faced by auto rickshaw drivers and passengers in its local market.

Operational Model:

RideBoom's auto rickshaw plan may have a more decentralized, community-driven approach, potentially involving partnerships with local auto rickshaw associations or cooperatives.

This could allow RideBoom to better integrate with the existing auto rickshaw ecosystem, leveraging local knowledge and relationships.

Technology and Innovation:

As a smaller, more agile player, RideBoom may be able to innovate and implement new technologies more quickly to address the unique needs of the auto rickshaw market.

This could include features like specialized mobile apps, digital payment solutions, or fleet management systems tailored for auto rickshaws.

Regulatory Approach:

RideBoom's auto rickshaw plan may navigate local regulations and licensing requirements more adeptly, given its deeper understanding of the market and closer ties with the auto rickshaw community.

This could allow RideBoom to offer a more streamlined and compliant service compared to the larger platforms, which may face greater bureaucratic challenges in certain markets.

Customer Service and Support:

RideBoom's smaller scale and localized focus may enable it to provide more personalized customer service and support to both auto rickshaw drivers and passengers.

This could include dedicated hotlines, in-person assistance, or community-based problem-solving mechanisms that cater to the specific needs of the auto rickshaw ecosystem.

Sustainability and Social Impact:

RideBoom's auto rickshaw plan may have a stronger emphasis on supporting the livelihoods of traditional auto rickshaw drivers, potentially offering better earnings, training, or social welfare programs.

This could position RideBoom as a more socially responsible player, committed to empowering and integrating the auto rickshaw community into the evolving transportation landscape.

While Rapido and Ola may have greater resources and scale, RideBoom's auto rickshaw plan could leverage its local market knowledge, community-based approach, and innovative solutions to differentiate itself and better serve the unique needs of the auto rickshaw segment. Effective execution and a deep understanding of the local context will be critical for RideBoom to carve out a sustainable niche in this competitive market.

Czech Republic officially joins the global F-35 Lightning II team

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 01/29/2024 - 19:37in Military

The government of the Czech Republic has signed a Letter of Offer and Acceptance (LOA) formalizing its intention to acquire 24 5ª generation Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II aircraft.

Through the U.S. government's Foreign Military Sale (FMS), the Czech Air Force will receive its first aircraft in 2031, which will be in the latest advanced configuration of Block 4.

“We are pleased that the government of the Czech Republic is now officially part of the global F-35 Lightning II program,” said U.S. Air Force Lieutenant General Mike Schmidt, executive officer of the program at the F-35 Joint Program Office. "This partnership with the Czech Ministry of Defense will supply and sustain F-35 aircraft for decades, while providing the Czech Air Force with unparalleled interoperability and ensuring that it has the ability to combat current and future threats."

In addition to the aircraft, the acquisition also includes personnel training, services and logistical support, in addition to the development of other support services, ensuring successful deliveries of all 24 F-35 jets.

"With the signing of the Letter of Offer and Acceptance between the Czech Republic and the U.S. governments, the Czech Republic becomes the 18ª nation to join the global F-35 program. We are honored to partner with the Czech Air Force as their F-35s join other European nations in strengthening and increasing interoperability, significantly increasing NATO's deterrence capacity,” said Bridget Lauderdale, vice president of Lockheed Martin and general manager of the F-35 program. "The F-35 is the best solution for the future fleet of fighters in the Czech Republic, with 5ª Generation capabilities, increasing the country's effectiveness in the 21st century Security battle space."

The F-35 is the preferred European aircraft to replace old fighter fleets, offering unparalleled interoperability with NATO and other nations to provide a key discriminator for the U.S. and its allies in the coming decades. By the 2030s, more than 600 F-35 fighters will work together in more than 10 European countries, including two full U.S. F-35 squadrons stationed at the Lakenheath RAF Air Base. It is also the only hunting in production currently that will create jobs in the next 40-50 years and will allow strategic industrial partnerships with the Czech industry.

The F-35 now operate on 32 bases around the world. To date, Lockheed Martin has delivered more than 990 F-35 jets, trained more than 2,280 pilots and 15,400 maintainers, and the F-35 fleet has exceeded almost 773,000 accumulated flight hours. Lockheed Martin continues to work side by side with F-35 operators to ensure that allies stay ahead of the evolving threat.

Below is the statement published by the Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic:

Minister of Defense, Jana Cernochová, along with U.S. Ambassador Bijan Sabet, today signed a Memorandum of Understanding between the Czech Republic and the United States on the acquisition of twenty-four fifth-generation F-35 fighters, which is the most important project in the history of the Czech Armed Forces. The ceremony brought to the fore the negotiations on the future of the Czech supersonic capacity and marked the conclusion of this contract.

The acquisition of 24 American F-35A Lightning II aircraft was authorized by the Government of the Czech Republic in September 2023. By the end of March 2024, it was necessary to complete a series of administrative steps and formally complete this phase of carrying out this strategic project through the celebration of the Memorandum of Understanding between the Czech and U.S. Government and the so-called Letter of Offer and Acceptance (LOA), the acceptance of which signs an agreement with the U.S. Government.

The Memorandum was signed today by the Minister of Defense of the Czech Republic, Jana Cernochová, with the United States Ambassador to the Czech Republic, Bijan Sabet, in the presence of the Chief of Staff General of the Czech Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Karel Rehka. The LOA, which was delivered in Prague at the end of 2023, was signed by the Director General of the Arms and Acquisitions Division of the Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic, Lubor Koudelka, after the completion of all the administrative steps required by Czech law.

The agreement includes industrial cooperation, which was hired by the Director General of the Industrial Cooperation Division of the Ministry of Defense, Radka Konderlová, last week. There are eleven projects prepared with Lockheed Martin and three projects with Pratt & Whitney with an added value of 667 million dollars. They will have the participation of 13 Czech companies and universities involved in four areas: component manufacturing, research and development, pilot training, maintenance and services of the F-35.

The Czech Republic discussed its own signature with the United States in recent weeks, as the time and place of convenience were identified. Taking into account the health problems and the subsequent convalescence of the United States Secretary of Defense, Lloyd J. Austin, this option to sign the Memorandum of Understanding in Prague was eventually selected. "I promised that the contract for the American F-35 aircraft would be completed by the end of March and I fulfilled the promise. This agreement between governments brings our country and its armed forces to a totally new era, in which not only our military, but also modern equipment rank us in the first league of NATO's European Allies. In fact, fifth-generation aircraft are the backbone of North Atlantic Treaty Organization fighters. In addition, its acquisition will significantly increase the combat readiness of the Czech Armed Forces,” said Minister Cernochová after the signing.

“The F-35 system is the only one that fulfills the mission on future battlefields and ensures effective defense together with our Allies against external aggressions, if necessary,” said the Chief of Staff General of the Czech Armed Forces, Lieutenant General Karel Rehka.

The acquisition process is scheduled for eleven years, with the arrival of the first aircraft in 2031. Along with individual payments, the Comprehensive Implementation Plan is being developed to define the introduction of the F-35 system in the Czech Armed Forces environment. Specifically, the plan covers personnel, training, infrastructure, services and logistical support and the development of all other auxiliary services, in order to receive the progressive deliveries of all 24 units of the F-35 without problems from the beginning.

The Swedish Gripen fighters in the Czech Air Force inventory will have fulfilled their mission until 2035, when the F-35 system will reach its full operational capacity. There are intense negotiations underway with the Kingdom of Sweden on the operation of the Gripens within the specified time.

Fortnight - lyric analysis and interpretation

"I was supposed to be sent away, but they forgot to come and get me"

The opening lines convey a sense of abandonment and neglect. The narrator is feeling overlooked. Possibly referring to a time when she expected a significant life change or an intervention that never occurred.

"I was a functioning alcoholic 'til nobody noticed my new aesthetic"

She is dealing with her issues in silence or changing in ways that those around her are unaware of. Her problems (or alcoholism) have been managed well enough that they do not interfere with her daily life to the point where others do not notice the change in her behavior or appearance.

"All this to say, I hope you're okay, but you're the reason"

In this line, she addresses someone directly, conveying a complex sentiment that includes both well-wishing and acknowledging the hurt or betrayal this person caused.

"And no one here's to blame, but what about your quiet treason?"

Suggests that, while no one is directly responsible for the fallout, there is an underlying betrayal that she cannot ignore.

"And for a fortnight there, we were forever, run into you sometimes, ask about the weather"

A fleeting moment or relationship that appeared timeless or destined to last but ultimately did not. There has been a shift toward more distant and possibly awkward interactions, with all the previous intimacy reduced to small talk.

"Now you're in my backyard, turned into good neighbors, your wife waters flowers, I wanna kill her"

There has been a shift in the relationship status, from whatever intimacy or closeness existed to becoming neighbors, which implies physical proximity but emotional distance. The final lyric reveals deep animosity or jealousy. The wife watering flowers, a mundane and peaceful activity, contrasted with the narrator's violent desire reveals her unresolved feelings for the person she is singing about.

"All my mornings are Mondays stuck in an endless February"

She is constantly depressed and bored. Mondays are traditionally regarded as the beginning of the work week and are frequently associated with a lack of enthusiasm. February can represent cold and darkness. This is a metaphor for a prolonged state of sadness or discomfort.

"I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary, and I love you, it's ruining my life"

She attempted to heal and move past emotional pain, possibly through a quick fix or superficial solution, but it proved ineffective in providing long-term relief and happiness. Saying she loves someone, but it is ruining her life is another statement that elicits strong emotions. Loving someone deeply while acknowledging that this love is causing significant personal turmoil.

"I touched you for only a fortnight, I touched you, but I touched you, and for a fortnight there we were together"

Emphasizes how brief the close and intimate phase of a relationship can be. Demonstrating how even brief connections can have a profound and lasting impact.

"Now you're at the mailbox, turned into good neighbors, my husband is cheating, I wanna kill him"

The transition from being in a close/intimate relationship to becoming "good neighbors" who occasionally cross paths at the mailbox shows a significant shift in the relationship's dynamics. Moving to a more distant and friendly acquaintance. The mundane interaction at the mailbox exemplifies how ordinary life continues despite previous intense emotions. She admits she wants to kill her husband because of his infidelity, revealing the anguish and betrayal it has caused her. The desire for retribution reflects pain and possibly a sense of being trapped when emotional ties cause harm.

"Thought of calling ya, but you won't pick up"

In this passage, the narrator expresses how much they want to reach out to this person. They would like to make contact, implying a desire to talk or even make amends, but they expect rejection because they think the other person won't pick up the phone.

"Another fortnight lost in America"

Could represent a sense of aimlessness or being adrift, not just in the relationship, but also in life. This sense of lost time is prolonged and recurring.

"Move to Florida, buy the car you want, but it won't start up 'til I touch, touch, touch you/'til you touch, touch, touch me"

They are looking for a new beginning or attempting to fulfill their desires in order to progress or find happiness. Florida is frequently associated with sunshine, retirement, or escape, which reinforces the theme of seeking a change in environment or circumstances to alleviate their unhappiness. However, even these actions are futile without the touch of the person they desire.

Thinking about post manga canon (sad)

I basically think that like. Vash probably has at least a few decades with consistent medical care but once his hair turns completely black it's like a slow decline of his body starting to break down & his organs failing. He still doesn't age like a human would really but he definitely starts to read as older anyway when he like. Becomes less physically fit and starts to have mobility problems. I ultimately think he's really happy about 'aging' and content with the life he has left cuz he's tired of outliving everyone around him especially now that, for the first time really, he's let himself really become close to the people in his life. He does not want to leave Meryl alone but she has Milly so she won't be alone, actually, and anyway she's so tough. She will move on.

The decline of his body is probably a kind of relief for him because he is not dangerous anymore—he's finally able to stay out of trouble. Meryl probably still has flashbacks occasionally and it makes him sad but it's easier to deal with knowing she doesn't have anything to fear from him anymore...

I don't really know how him still being a wanted criminal ends up resolving in this context. I kinda think he must just be able to work it out with the terran folks, maybe with Chronica vouching for him, so he doesn't have to keep running forever. I really want him to get a break. I kind of imagine there is a real movement in Octovern to draw on plants sustainably and stop abusing them and he probably works with the engineers & Chronica to set this up... I have seen people complaining about the ambiguity of the ending in regard to how plants are treated and I get this like I also wish there was more of like. An intention to change indicated but I do like how open it is in not providing a clear solution. My personal onion is that the reduced population & the fused mass of plants in Octovern together make it so they are not drawn on in such excess and individual plants are strained less. There probably get passed some like, population limiting laws which is potentially its own issue but overall I would like to think that the situation is better. I also think that the fact that the Terrans know a lot about plants that was presumably lost to the people of no man's land provides an avenue for change... Maybe they convince earth to send more ships to either evacuate the planet or help terraform it also but I kind of think they would be reluctant to send anyone else out there after having the entire fleet get destroyed like that. Honestly thinking they might be inclined to nuke the whole planet to ensure that whatever's there doesn't make it back to earth just based on. How the first fleet acted but maybe they're able to talk them out of it, convince them the threat is neutralized

I think Vash and Chronica would have a weird kind of fraught relationship. I don't think she likes him much to be honest; she associates him too heavily with Knives and what he did to Domina but she also. Sifted through the memories of all the fused plants and Saw how he befriended every last one of them, how he was the key to saving the planet in the end... His compassion and idealism remind her of Domina more than she wants to admit, so she goes to bat for him. Probably a lot. I think he still manages to get himself in, like, diplomatic trouble working with the Terrans, so she has to do a lot of mediating.

I think it takes Vash and Meryl a while to actually like. Acknowledge their feelings for each other. Maybe she has to realize he's slowly dying, even, before she acts on it. I think it's definitely Meryl first. Vash would never presume that he deserves anything good, let alone anything that implicates another person in the tragedy of his life. I think they settle down, though, together. Once they work it out.

Rome Airport in Italy successfully cooperates with Nanjing AE

Background:

To encourage the purchase of electric vehicles and EV charging stations, the Italian government approved a new incentive measure, which has officially come into effect in 2023. The incentive measure is part of dedicated funding for the automotive industry, with about $8.7 billion expected to be spent in the year 2023-2024 to provide subsidies for the purchase of  vehicles of low-pollution and low-emission and charging infrastructure. The introduction of this incentive measure will inject new vitality into Italian electric vehicle market.

Policy subsidies:

What incentives are there for buying an electric car in Italy?

The most important new content of the electric vehicle incentives announced officially in 2023 include subsidies for the purchase of charging stations and a list of beneficiaries. For example, the long-term rental companies offer double subsidies for those whose income is below 30,000 euros .The total fiscal coverage of electric vehicle incentives in 2023 is $150 million.This move will further expand the user groups of electric vehicles and allow more people to enjoy the convenience and benefits of environmentally friendly travel.

Additionally, further donations are expected to be used to purchase and install electric vehicle charging stations. 40 million euros will be used to subsidize the installation of EV chargers. The policy aims to reduce net emissions to zero by the year 2050 and replace diesel vehicles by 2035 or earlier.

Current status of charging infrastructure:

By the end of 2022 , Italy had 36,772 EV chargers installed at 19,334 charging stations (stations or poles) and 14,048 public locations. Equally important, the output power of charging point is also growing.The number of ultra-fast charging points has been tripled, with the output power ranging from 100kW to 350kW. This improvement measures will greatly improve charging efficiency and meet the growing charging demand. 

The number of charging stations close to city centers and major cities is growing rapidly . There are more than 600 charging stations every 10 kilometers, aiming to solve the charging problem in the popularization of electric vehicles and provide users with more convenient charging services. Motorway charging points increase rapidly compared to the previous year. In one year, the number of charging stations has been quadrupled , with 64% of them having the power of 150kW or more, providing drivers with shorter charging times for long-distance journeys.

Case:

AE system (AEAUTO) signed a batch order of #120kW DC fast charging stations with Italian bus operators in the first half of this year. The EV chargers will be used for the airport internal bus fleet, buses, and luggage transport vehicles, to improve the overall operational efficiency of the airport and make it convenient for passengers. Meanwhile, this will reduce carbon emissions and provides employees with environmentally friendly and efficient charging service.

There are a lot of fleets in Rome airport in Italy. Including land transportation services and passenger and baggage transport vehicles within the airport area, which require dedicated base locations for maintenance and charging. These vehicles play a vital role in airport operations, providing indispensable support for maintaining flight operations and comfortable passenger travel. Therefore, providing efficient charging solutions for these electric ground service vehicles and employee electric vehicles is crucial for airports.

What Is Vehicle Remarketing? 

Vehicle remarketing is a type of business that includes selling and buying used vehicles. In other words, it is known as the controlled disposal or circulation of the fleet of rental or company vehicles that have passed their end terms. A lot of people get confused about vehicle remarketing with vehicle reselling and think they are the same thing. But it is not because vehicle remarketing is a business that usually deals with a large fleet of vehicles which requires large fleet operators. Moreover, vehicle remarketing involves refurbishing the fleet of vehicles and selling the used vehicles again in the market.

Now, you might wonder why vehicle remarketing is so important. Well, here you will get the answer to that question.

Why Is Vehicle Remarketing So Important In 2022?

If you own a vehicle and want to sell it, then it is obvious that you want the highest possible price you can get from it. And vehicle remarketing is one of the best way to get the highest possible return.

The value of the vehicle is more if the vehicle’s portfolio is great. And vehicle remarketing helps in moving your inventory quickly and more cost-effectively, which as a result, elevates the value of the vehicle’s portfolio.

Sometimes it is possible that after putting the vehicle up for sale, it might not be picked up for years. But, vehicle remarketing speed up the procedures and shortens the turnaround time.

The management of multiple providers is very important. And development and implementation of an effective marketing strategy is a part of the vehicle remarketing solution, which makes it easy to manage multiple providers.

Now you might wonder how vehicle remarketing works. Well, here is how

How Does Vehicle Remarketing Work?

Step-1

The first step in vehicle remarketing is choosing a channel. Choosing a good channel that will give the highest possible return is very important. In recent days, there have been a lot of sales channels because of the internet. Moreover, the channels have become very easy to reach out to because of the internet.

Here, one of the possible ways to choose a channel is to search for a local channel to sell it. But if you can get a wider number of possible buyers and a wider range of bidding prices on the internet, then why not go for it? Another awesome way to sell is to participate in national auctions; they can give you a higher bid for the vehicle. National auctions have a lot of advantages, such as-

National auctions are conducted at various geographical sites across the country. Having auctions at various locations can help you to get a higher bidding price. This can be done by identifying the location where the vehicle can get a high price by using the data.

National auctions provide support by handling the logistics of the vehicle’s inspection, valuation, and transportation of the vehicle to the auction site.

Step-2

The next step after choosing a channel and putting up the vehicle on sale is to wait. But you can track the status of progress of your vehicle till the date it gets sold. Therefore, there are a lot of technologies provided by the channels to track the activities.

Step-3

Vehicle remarketing strategies play a crucial role in the whole process. A lot of data is generated throughout the remarketing processes, which helps in developing an insight into the whole remarketing strategy. A lot of new technologies, such as vehicle remarketing software, are there to monitor the costs, trends, and performance. These data can be used collectively to maximize the return and improve the efficiency of the process. Let’s have a look at what trends, performance, and costs mean in vehicle remarketing.

Performance:

Performance data shows which auction or channel is providing high prices for the vehicles consistently.

Trends:

It means knowing which vehicle model is currently in demand and comparing various kinds of models. This helps to find the model which commands the highest price and also the price of other models as well.

Different models have different demands according to geographical locations. This data can be used to determine which vehicle will gain a higher price according to the location. This data can be useful for developing a pricing strategy by identifying the models and making where the vehicle model demand is declining or elevating.

Costs:

It is the cost of the vehicle, either on the offline or online channel or auction. Cost data can be helpful in determining the best channel by checking which channel is providing the best or worst cost-benefit ratios.

What Is The Significance Of Remarketing Experts?

You might wonder what the need for a vehicle remarketing expert is. Well, you might assume that you can manage the vehicle remarketing on your own, but when the volume of the vehicles is huge, you might lose your investment in the process. This is where the vehicle remarketing experts comes in handy; they have great significance in the remarketing field. A good remarketing expert can improve the efficiency of your whole vehicle remarketing process. This is how they can bring efficiency-

They have experience in coordinating with various established and reliable resources that can easily handle vehicle transportation, inspections, and refurbishing.

They are very cost-effective. They adopt various ways of incorporating economies of scale that are helpful in reducing costs at every stage of the vehicle remarketing process.

They are great at managing a great volume of vehicles efficiently. They do so by providing systems, experiences, and national networks.

It can also be said that a remarketing expert can introduce you to the seamless process where they can arrange everything from pick up to the sale. Likely, it can be an easy process with the help of an expert.

If you are looking for a vehicle remarketing expert that can help you in selling and buying used vehicles, then you need to consider the above-mentioned points and contact Brent Huisman.
