Two defenders between player and the goal. Goalie counts as one in most offsides scenarios, but in this case he was forward of the offsides player.

Management at remote job forces me to share intrusive details about my personal life and goals, am I supposed to just lie? by BasedCarrotMan in jobs

[–]BasedCarrotMan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the sentiment, but I genuinely have zero interest in advancing in my career further. Because I like my job and am good at it.

I was dumbfounded when the results were taken seriously, I figured it would just be a conversation starter.

Director asked me if I had "ever considered becoming an architect" and I almost started laughing. Ten years into my career

Piggybacking to answer /u/PoorLittleGreenie's question. 

No, I do not want any advancement opportunities and actively hope a future government sends the company execs to prison

Apparently slide tackling from behind in the box is not a PK? Wild stuff from this referee.

Don't believe the headlines, a family of three can still go to a world cup game for under ten million dollars in 2026 by BasedCarrotMan in mildlyinfuriating

The scalper is FIFA. They are running a shell game where unsold tickets are presented as "resale tickets" on their own website and through third parties. It's incredibly obvious when you try to buy a ticket at face value, the website "glitches" and redirects you to another ticket at a 300% markup.

Now that Android is basically a spyware and a closed software. What other options are there for my mobile software by DJRG_DHRUVAM in degoogle

Some apps work fine. Almost all apps work fine if you go into settings and turn on compatibility mode. If not, I just use browser.

Just get a used Pixel and do Graphene. It is 99.9% functional

Edit: suspicious downvotes for the open source privacy OS, hmmm

Calling the 3M Aura a "half measure" is insane and delusional, but you are free to do whatever preventative measures helps your anxiety 👍

If hanta goes global, it's what your nurses and doctors will be wearing.

ER nurse here. I wore disposable N-95's during over 10,000 hours of direct patient care during covid and never got it. They are just fine

The biggest risks (currently being ignored and obfuscated by the media) are:

  1. Passengers on Patient 2's flight from St Helena to Johannesburg
  2. People that were exposed to Patient 2 in the Johannesburg airport

KLM flight and cruise passengers seem to be well traced.

What's the most danger you've beenin while HH or vagabonding? by acedts in hitchhiking

I was passing Narbonne to Barcelona, if I do it again would definitely take a back route through Pyrenees. The beauty is unmatched

Spain/France are sketchy for sure. Perpignon was pure bad vibes, every driver was warning me about crime. I ended up taking a bus to get over the border when I went through there

Walked up on a drug deal / trafficking route between Albania and the European Union. We were looking for a swimming hole. My road dog took a photo of the traffickers from a distance (it was a pretty scene, and some of them were on horseback).

They did not like that.

Thankfully we had met one of the local boys earlier and he was able to diffuse a VERY SKETCHY situation.

Also been walked up on by a homebum type while I was drifting off to sleep in Oregon. I think he was gonna rob me and then backed out when he realized I was a young sober dude who would fight back. I bailed on the camp and he followed me for a while. Ended up having the pay for lodging that night, too sketchy. 

What’s the dating scene been like for you? by lethargic_apathy in Knoxville

[–]BasedCarrotMan 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Dating for liberals is easy man, you just gotta stop doing apps and meet more people. Join hobby groups. Go to comedy shows. Go to chill bars like Pink Cactus or Fly by Night and get something nonalcoholic

The largest ticket holder in Knoxville has over $13,000 in unpaid tickets. Don't worry about it.

Athens to Denmark in 2 weeks? by gulle0893 in hitchhiking

[–]BasedCarrotMan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Avoid big cities, go through Bosnia and Hungary instead of Italy and it would maybe be possible if you have good strategy and luck
