To be fair, about that women’s world cup team, if i recall correctly it was a PR move to play an exhibition match with those kids and they were not trying very hard to win. I don’t think they would truly lose to U-15 if it was, for example, a tournament.
Your overall point has merit but i think that specific example gets overused a bit.
One of the finer points of something new is getting in at the right time. I have to imagine if you’re a streamer and you force yourself to stay on your old game “for the fans,” you could miss out on the shiny new thing that people care about. This could literally cost them money that they need for rent. I am confident that many streamers are not highly paid and depend on this income.
Don’t forget, fans are fickle, corporations are fickle, everyone is fickle. I don’t think any employee of a company should be loyal to that company if it is to their own detriment as that company will let their employees go if it needs to (better companies try harder, worse companies make worse decisions).
I don’t see why a streamer should treat their career differently. Do what you think is best for you. Streamers don’t owe me, the fan, and it doesn’t do me any good for them to force themselves to play a game they’re less interested in just to appease me.
Compared to the other Uber wealthy, he at least seems to have some sort of a code of ethics from what i can see, which is obviously limited. He’s still in it to make money (obviously), but his actions seem to suggest that he won’t go to the extreme of hurting everyone else just for money.
I started liking Mark more when he opened cost plus drugs. It’s a pretty decent endeavor to try to reduce pharmaceutical costs for the consumer
That’s not an analogy at all, as it’s completely different from what i said earlier. I’m not trying to prove that Earth is moving amazingly fast, I’m trying to show how the headline seems grander than it is.
I also don’t think a lot of people realize quite how fast the Earth is moving through space. Saying a million miles an hour really does seem impressive if you don’t have that information. But as we speak, we are literally hurtling through space at half that pace.
If we weren’t orbiting the sun we would end up orbiting something else at a different speed.
This would be similar to saying that San Bernardino county in California is 20000 sq mi, or about 50k km squared. It’s just a number without context. But if i told you it’s a county that is it was bigger than both the country of Switzerland and US State of West Virginia, that’s added context for size comparison. The way that California divides its county structure does not invalidate this comparison, and is irrelevant.
I’m not really sure what your intent or point is here.
I don’t think that’s entirely fair to say. The headline reads sensationally about a celestial object, but our own sun is traveling at almost half that speed, and we’re following it. I’m not trying to prove that the Earth is incredibly fast, only that the headline may sound more impressive than it is.
Isn’t the sun revolving around the center of the milky way at approximately 450,000 mph? And the Earth revolves around the sun, so we’re moving about half as fast as this new object right now. One million is pretty fast, but context makes it a little less shocking.
Not a reddit fan anymore, but this makes me think of r/portugalcykablyat
They almost certainly changed the picture to the one that was using a filter to make it more blue. I’m fairly confident the earlier photo was easier to distinguish
Edit:
I’m being downvoted, but either this thread or another thread did literally use a different picture similar to this before.
If you travel, you’ll find very interesting combinations of flavors. As a few modest examples, I recently came upon paprika flavored and cheese and onion flavored Pringles, and awhile back i had sake flavored kit kats.
Travel more! Plenty of flavor experimentation going on
There are several under “unique tone” that actually seem… Better?
I think the joke is that a dominatrix is meant to, well, dominate their client (sexually). Think like with whips and chains, for example. Unfortunately, everything in her house, even the ficus, dominates her. It’s a bad first impression and she appears to be unfit for the role.
Looks like a Milchkaffee, which is kinda like a cafe au lait
They’re saying that allegedly, Christians are not big on voting, and this statement is meant to encourage those non voters to come vote just this once and everything will get better. Then you can go back to being a non voter.
I think.
Horrible wording no matter how you slice it, though.
I feel like the wealthy people you see are the ones who either get excitement from flaunting it or from lying about it (for example, mtv cribs was all fake). There are plenty of stories (yes i know they’re just stories) about multi millionaires who drive the same old truck, wear regular blue jeans, and have a nice quiet (albeit larger than average) home.
It’s not crazy at all. I just think we see the outliers more frequently than not because they want us to see them.
Ha, i am somewhat familiar with the genre, i just wanted to contribute :) studied ancient rome, so that is legit what i typically think of when i hear goth.
To me, goths are the people who sacked Rome in 410. None of this makes sense to me.
Oh man, that’s all i ever do. I’m never on a good run where i can just switch to something else, I’m always just stuck. Id love if it got a rework somehow, like maybe only -.4x for using your most used hand
Gahhhh that just happened to me tonight trying to gold the abandoned deck. And then i accidentally clicked only 4 cards on psychic. Sigh
I don’t think breakfast needs to be that immediate? The dish prepared here almost certainly took a minimum of 30, if not 45+ minutes to make, and there’s no indication it was immediately after waking. Breakfast can be a bit later.
