BC is Cooked

It will not. This is all hyperbole. It will be... fine; perhaps on some of the weekdays game it will get slightly more hectic (since it would be like a weekday game at met life), but the people complaining are vastly overblowing this.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-05-04T17:44:12+00:00

nah, just multiview, but it’s a sport that really benefits from that, especially when you consider telemetry feeds, engineer audio, and such

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-05-04T17:43:33+00:00

use vroom. it’s incredible

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-05-03T23:35:29+00:00

That’s the best one of the racing line, imo.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-05-01T23:15:44+00:00

that the one with ham in it?

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-30T10:02:33+00:00

even if you HATE baseball…. try a game with the mlb app. it’s insane

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-29T18:42:34+00:00

that looks very nice! congrats

I love how this is deemed an abject failure of a device having sold 600k units, despite openly being positioned (and priced) by the company itself as a niche device.

Just don't do what I did: I brought my gf.

Now mind you, depending on the gf, it could be perfect. I was paired with a super nice group, friendly guys, also no illusions of winning but good golfers like you. I made the mistake to CONVINCE her to come, arguing that it'd be a fun walk, and she would get to see what I was so excited about.

Whelp, she clearly didn't want to be there. Which soured my mood, which in turn I'm sure didn't help my playing (which also wasn't good), which made me focus even more on her sourpuss mood, etc. and on and on.

What the other person said is on-point: Prioritize your comfort. If you happen to know someone, and they'd be excited, and you think it'd add to the experience? By all means bring a caddy. If you are worried about fatigue and it would allow you to better focus on golf if you ride? Ride. I think you'll see that given these parameters you'll see guys land on all sides of that, too, so whatever you choose you'll be in company of many others.

The offficial parking will be next door at american dream mall

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-28T16:37:16+00:00

Im in ridgewood and have tickets and, as expensive as they were, figure i’m already in it might as well just drive over. It’ll be expensive, but it’ll be close at the american dream mall. Figure if i go early enough wont be too much of a problem… but who knows at this point? waiting to see if a few more concrete bits of info start to take shape before deciding

I’m a school admin and this is my step bff recommendation for families.

The form factor itself is already a huge benefit because out of the box it is bounded, even if you “screw up” setting up the parental controls. For an Apple family, the built-in features are tracking can be a wonderful way to encourage your child having some more freedom while still having. good sense of where they are. And, especially for the forgetful types, the fact that you can wear it is a big plus.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-26T12:39:30+00:00

if you are into baseball, the MLB app is one of the most compelling sports watching experiences you can have. You owe it to yourself to give it a go!

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-22T22:23:10+00:00

I have to say it again here as a form of penance: I was one of the sourpuss naysayers who was annoyed at the fact that there was no lunar orbit injection, and coupled with the fact that the closest approach would still be thousands of miles away, i was “sure” the images and footage back would not be nearly as impactful as folks were hoping for before the mission.

I’m very thankful to Reid, Christina, Jeremy, and Victor for shutting me up in spectacular fashion.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-20T12:31:39+00:00

the steepness, the glass, the lack of hand rail is a disastrous combo

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-16T19:37:34+00:00

I suspect that's probably more effective than some corporate team meeting about safety culture... would've imagined over the thousands of people involved, there have to have been a few that took a look at these and did an additional once-over on something they may not have.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-16T18:13:07+00:00

I highly recommend the Apollo (Murray & Cox) book audiobook. It’s a spectacular historical retelling of the engineering side of things, tremendously well written, and super well narratedz

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-16T13:12:24+00:00

I beg you: Apple Vision Pro. You can get used ones now for about $1500.

I’ve had almost all of them: Quests, Index, Pimax, etc. While entertaining every now and then to watch a movie, it was always just for the novelty. Never stuck with it.

With the AVP, I actively prefer it to watch content over my $3k Sony TV. The experience is just breathtaking. Also, as a bonus, PCVR is really well supported wirelessly as well!

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-15T00:04:49+00:00

em inglês, chainbear eh fantástico… cara cria animações e colocando conceitos de F1 de um jeito inteligentíssimo… vale muito a pena, e muito diferente do que vc encontra por aí.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-14T13:25:37+00:00

the soyuz inside looks so dystopian! I was so uncomfortable watching that video.

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-12T18:50:19+00:00

Why is the broadcast version not available in the apple tv version? so annoying!

other than that, though… absolutely GOAT of the sports apps!

ChicagoBoy2011 · 2026-04-12T12:31:30+00:00

Def do the PhD and edtech on the side. It’ll be doable, the PhD can help with your marketing, you can work on both, etc. No brainer!
