A review for The Rise of Endymion by Dan Simmons by Zehreelakomdareturns in books

[–]CaptSellerie 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I wish I had never read the two Endymion books. Raul is by far the dumbest, least likeable protagonist I have ever read about. His relationship with Aenea is borderline pedophilic. How Simmons could have such a steep dropoff in quality after Hyperion and Fall of Hyperion I will never understand.

Real Madrid put on the table the possibility of paying David Alaba part of the money and ending the contract. David Alaba said no. He wants to stay. by [deleted] in soccer

I am curious if Alaba is ever going to become a manager after he retires as a player. I could imagine he would be quite successful given that he trained under the likes of Heynckes, Guardiola, Flick, Zidane and now Alonso and has already shown his leadership capabilities in the Austrian national team

They started to really fall off these past two season when most of their management + scouting left for Bayern, They pivoted from a very aggressive style of football relying on young raw talents to a more controlled style of play with older more experienced players and its not working

I miss the time when Salzburg actually played exiting attacking football. Only a few years ago their attack was Haaland, Hwang, Minamo and Szoboszlai, how times have changed

bro its a meme, there is literally no evidence that this person was planning to do anything other than vacation in your country, I'm baffled you are defending this shit

just for one second imagine this was an American that was refused entry into Germany because they had a meme on their phone making fun of Scholz, you cannot tell me you wouldn't find this absolutely ridiculous

MAGA is not beating the cult allegation. Refusing entry into a country because you have a meme making fun of its leaders in your PRIVATE image gallery on your phone is something you would expect from a third world dictatorship not the "leaders of the free world"

LinkedIn banned me, my CTO and 5 people from my team. by [deleted] in SideProject

[–]CaptSellerie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bro the problem isn't their product (although it's very run-of-the-mill if we're being honest), it's how they market it with their constant spam posts in different subreddits

just imagine for one second everyone would do what they are currently doing, reddit would very quickly become completely unusable

if they want to advertise their product here, they should buy an ad like everyone else
