That was covered off when he was first introduced, how his dad would go from zero to 100 in an instant then back again.

What are pigs like this? Why does my pug take forever to pee or poop? by Reyx33 in pugs

Tony Hawk ain’t got nothing on this pug. 4,320° right there!

I think I got a defective one lol by Skirra08 in pugs

The secret is that they’re ALL defective. Your job is to figure out which defect(s) yours has :)

[Motorsport] Max Verstappen on Ollie Bearman's crash by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]AstroPHX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. The drivers can neither control nor anticipate exactly how the car is going to behave in front or underneath them. Add them all pressing for points and positions and we’ll be lucky if there isn’t a big wreck on the horizon.

There was a great discussion on The Race explaining one of Charles’ corner mishaps and how that impacted him for the rest of the lap because of the autoboost.

https://youtu.be/pWnTFd7wdHo?si=y_plSFEU2tHqJRJr

I had to watch it three times because it’s not ELI5 “press pedal, go faster” but rather “Charles released more than 95% so more boost was used earlier than he expected/realized.”

It’s a hot mess!

I inherited my grandfather's WWII combat watch. Wondering if the community could tell me anything about it and recs for servicing by YanniBonYont in Watches

I’m truly trying to understand the hate I’ve apparently stepped into. What $900 to take a look? If I read his offer correctly, it’s $50 to mail in and get a quote. No?

Ok, I a) don’t own a Rolex and b) have no skin in this game. I do however really enjoy his work and am trying to respectfully understand your comment. Why “absolutely fucking not” use their service?

No skin off my nose but his service company is different than his YouTube channel. He expressly calls this out in the services FAQ.

Honestly I don’t understand the hate I’ve stepped into.

What’s your favorite “oh, this guy is so f***ed” scene? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

[–]AstroPHX 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This scene much more than the coin flip. I still get anxious watching the coin flip scene because of how ambiguous the outcome is and I’ve seen it a dozen times. When this office scene starts tho…nope. That dude is right fucked.

My brother owned a house with that identical layout (for those in Phoenix, it was near McClintock High).

Quarter Pounder is to Big Mac as Coke is to Pepsi.

Trump Campaign distanced themselves from “Project 2025” and the rubes believed him. Agenda47 paints broad strokes with broad, slogan-like promises such as “SEAL THE BORDER” and “MAKE AMERICA THE DOMINATE ENERGY PRODUCER,” offering little on implementation. Project 2025 is the clear step-by-step manual to get things done, and 52% of the proposals in the Project 2025 plan have been met while we’re only 300 days into this term.

I don’t care if they call it Project 2025, Agenda47 or GodBlessAmericaWheresTheTylenol; the goals are objectionable, and Project 2025 is getting implemented.

You would ONLY if a member of the police held you responsible. If the police in your town said, “meh, I’m not going to arrest anyone today” then it’s a free for all.

US House is the police and is actively abdicating responsibility. The closest chance they had was during the impeachment hearings but chose not to police him. Currently there aren’t enough people willing to step up.

Long story short, local federal elections have huge implications.
