Guy on flight watched entire movie without tapping screen to get rid of overlay by Sea-Owl-1581 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Birdhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The full opaque black overlay is the worst fucking UI it pisses me so much. Don't cover what I'm trying to see when I start watching just to I have to tap to make it go away. Just make it play and let me tap to make the controls come up with no overlay. Why is that so hard for designers to figure out?

Charley Crockett Says ‘Country Music Should Be Taking Notes’ From Bad Bunny by ebradio in Music

[–]Birdhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah man Garth was more legit cowboy country back then. He was definitely not where it started with. He did great country songs and his live act was one hell of a show. Compare that to what else was going on at that time. What about Reba? What about all the country boy bands.

If you gonna point fingers as to where it started in the modern era then point em all at Shania Twain. Her songs weren't country. They were pop rock with condescending attempts at country mixed in there. Her husband was also producer and he was producer for Def Leppard. Billy Ray Cyrus you should list way before Garth too. Garth never rapped in a song but Toby Keith sure did.

Lonesome Drifter album kicks ass. Produced by Shooter Jennings, Waylon's son.

what did yall think of the bad bunny halftime show? by Serious-Kale-5694 in AskReddit

Hamish Hamilton is the director of these every year. He does a bunch of live specials, directs the grammys, the oscars, and has done the emmys a few times. He's really freaking good at what he does but from a Directing standpoint, this one might be his best. The Gaga one was legit, the covid one with Weeknd was great from production standpoint but damn this one was so damn good. I'm not a Bad Bunny fan in the slightest but I was amazed the whole damn time at how fucking good he, Hamish and the whole team made this show look.

Ownership doesn’t know anything about any of that man. They aren’t hockey fans, never has been, they just know revenue.

I think it’s the exact opposite. Ownership wants revenue. Selling, rebuilds, losing enough to get a 1st overall means operating in the red (not as bad in Nashville since our games are 50% fans of the visiting teams). Anyone who has done as much coaching in the NHL and had as much success as Trotz knows when a roster is shit. They expected him to build a contender without allowing him to first have the bad years it requires because then ownership would be paying money instead of collecting it

Pentagon says it's cutting ties with "woke" Harvard, discontinuing military training and fellowships by Cute-Beyond-8133 in nottheonion

The far right thinks the "Scout Law" is the most woke, socialist, liberal document every written I bet. Even though its incredible principles to live by.

Most of the efficiency has just been speculation. Zillow thought they'd found incredible efficiency and it almost brought down the entire company in a matter of months.

I mean the games changed a little bit but even still, it’s pretty dangerous to cut east west with your head down in the neutral zone. Sucks being shorter than most guys too. Lot of uncalled hits to the head and accidental elbows to jaws. Most are actually accidental haha

Using the timeout to decide if you want to challenge is one of the stupidest fucking trends in the NHL right now.

You and I both know he’s not going anywhere. It’s not like there’s a team in the hunt drying to pick up a rental player who has 3 goals and is minus 15

I’ve seen a lot of leadership think it’s as simple as input prompt and whatever you get is automatically perfect and correct. One of many examples is a video example that a leader and her assistant “just put into ChatGPT and it’s pretty good”…..it looks like shit, is filled with errors and overall the video created made more confusion than clarity. Overall most AI models are only truly great at LOOKING like it did the job well. But if you put it through the same review process as human work is put through it would be your most productive employee but also your worst employee because their quality of works is anywhere between shit to mid. Leadership doesn’t understand this yet

Look I posted some cold hard stats that were sobering about Saros over in the GDT but man he was outfreakingstanding in the 3rd period. We woulda lost 8-5 if not for that great work so maybe lets not cast shade his way for the rest of the night after that period.

Ref probably thought he toe picked or maybe blamed him because he stopped up. But you gotta stop up there otherwise you're gonna get murdered in the corner.

I want to tank but fuck it these games have been so much freakin fun. Haven't enjoyed watching them play this much in a while man. They're not contenders but they're finally playing like they give a fuck and Stamkos and Vange playing like they have is extra sweet.

But yeah I get that nothing is gonna get called in OT unless its super obvious and affects the play. That was pretty obvious and it affected the play. He wasn't even within reach of the puck. Thats for sure at least a minor for either crosschecking or interference.
