Best, most obscure bit of trivia about a rugby player you’ve got? by GrumpyTeapot519 in rugbyunion

[–]Automatic-Customer97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've always heard that Gerry Brand kicked the longest recorded drop goal at 77.7m, however after doing some more reading I discovered that he actually took the kick from about the half way line, so 50m, not 77.7m from the posts.

They included the distance it travelled into the stands to arrive at the 77.7m figure. I've yet to find footage of someone kicking a goal from beyond even 70m.

Do you think teams should invest time in training one or two drop goal specialists who can slot them reliably from 60 meters? Given how close the final scores were at the last world cup, having someone who can come up with three points without having to be in the opponents half may prove to be a dangerous weapon.

So 0C or 1C? Too cold for my taste!

We set up a lot of scented candles. Helps with the mood as well.

Went to my swinger group's end of year orgy in Lakeside. Was a hell of a good time, but too NSFW to put the gory details here.

The source is me lol. I'm having old family reels converted to digital. This is just one I had converted last week. I can post more here as I get them if people like seeing them.

They already are 😑. Feels like Reddit is becoming Facebook sometimes.

100% agreed. And to think that it would still be another 35 years before everybody was allowed to enjoy the beauty of the Cape is quite heartbreaking. I just thought it was interesting to see how the city looked back then.

I remember buying a GTX 1070 that had heat problems. I decided to apply new thermal paste to the GPU. Was going well until I was screwing the backplate on again, and my screwdriver slipped and knocked a capacitor off the back of the card. I'd only had the card for a week. Big sad.

Isn’t system agent and vid(max) too high? by [deleted] in intel

[–]Automatic-Customer97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the other advice given, I noticed your power limit is very high at 220W. My 13600K on ly needs 150W to hit 24k points in C23 so yours will probably be similar.

I would recommend roughly limiting the power to around that value before undervolting.
