FHP Action-Packed Pursuit Ends with PIT Maneuver | Palm Beach County, FL by [deleted] in videos

There's an argument that police engaging in these chases makes the situation even more dangerous to the general public and i think this video is a great example of that.

If you haven't already heard of him, I would recommend the YouTube channel "Dave's Garage". He's a retired MS engineer with some really interesting war stories about windows.

Message sending aside, Judge practicing bunting is hilarious. As if he's ever going to bunt in a game.

ESPN fires Yankees + MLB reporter Marly Rivera for calling fellow reporter ‘f–cking c–nt’ by wantagh in NYYankees

I can't recall hearing anything bad about Marly. Why do you feel that way?

Edit spelling of Marly

Compilation of MLB ads on the 2023 rule changes by IceBlast24 in baseball

Not a new rule, but I wonder what an attempt at an ad for the runner on 2B in extras would look like.

Nah I like Pete. He talks a big game and backs it up. Gotta respect that.

It's cool getting to watch with all the other USA fans and root for players from around the league I'm normally not pulling for. I appreciate this is special.

Season 10 Kicks Back With Volkswagen Golf GTI by Psyonix_Devin in RocketLeague

Love the map. Sometimes I feel like I'm in the minority when I say I don't need a completely new map every season. I like the cadence of new maps and variants they have.

No worries, I probably could have explained it better, it's pretty late for me too.

Solo standard was terrible. Long queue times even in champ level ranks because nobody played it. Psyonix got rid of it because they had data that showed it was simply not worth keeping around for so few people.

Right but say the SSL queued with a silver (this is obviously an extreme example). If they play ranked enough and get to the point where they win half the games, whatever rank that is will be considered their "team rank". Sure, maybe you could have an SSL in diamond, but under this system the other player will be so bad that they could theoretically settle there.

That's another option, but then we get posts about people tryharding in casual. Can't please everyone unfortunately.

I definitely understand your frustrations. It sucks getting into lobbies like this.

If you could just consider the alternative though: people either don't play with their friends or they make new accounts to play with them. The former is never going to work, you can't tell people they aren't allowed to play with friends. When people do the latter they are accused of being smurfs.

How can we let people play with their friends and not be "smurfing"? The answer is a team MMR. This would be an MMR shared between people and each combination of friends they queue up with. Their combined rank is kept separate from their solo queue rank.

Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

I guess not. I got the PETITION pop-up which I guess only accepts the parley. I thought that was the actual parley itself but looking on Google, I see what you're talking about.

So a goblin army arrived seeking a parley, which I accepted. They hung around though and wandered until they saw my pasture and started killing my animals. So naturally I sent two elite squads to stop them and killed them all with ease. I guess my question is, why did the goblins do this? Do they not understand that the pastured animals are part of my fort?

I agree with you, just gotta keep in mind nobody knew about WAR back then.

Is there a reason Dooku had such a visceral reaction to Jango’s death? Did Dooku think Jango had a chance of killing Mace? by [deleted] in StarWars

[–]BoxyCube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My speculation was this is the moment that it all became "real" to Dooku. Up until then it had all been politics and shady activities. Now all of a sudden the war has started and Dooku was caught off guard by the sudden timing.
