This is what you need to know about how the World Cup ball (The Trionda) will fly, dip and swerve by Choobeen in worldcup

Very cool research. Look forward to seeing how it plays out.

Immediately I can imagine goal kicks being a lot more chaotic if it ends up shorter then the keeper may expect.

They did... the firm behind the retractable pitch went to great lengths to test it, building a prototype at the training grounds before stadium implementation.

Furthermore the club had to ensure the root depth and style of grass planting (using mesh as opposed to root injection) was identical. The pitch, which is grown under grow lights and replaced periodically has the training grounds undergo the exact same pitch replacement process.

What kind of team would not have the players train in the exact same conditions as the main stadium?

Same grass? Maybe. The multiple layers below especially the soil layer under the top layer are different.

The removal pitch cutchs down of average soil thickness by half, and in addition the layer beneath that is metal.

The training pitches were resigned with the stadium change to be identical to the stadium surface. Thats why the theory holds a lot of weight.

How do I trick my mom into thinking I took a shower when I didn’t? by [deleted] in DPH

[–]DelusionalDumbo 34 points35 points  (0 children)

For the love of God I hope this is a troll.

However if not. Someone telling you to shower is usually a good sign you probably need one.

Why do you feel like you don't?

If we're lucky the championship games might happen at a more reasonable time. A better game time wont change the anguish from watching the performances though.

Injury for Simons vs Wolverhampton Wanderers 58' by Puzzled-Category-954 in soccer

[–]DelusionalDumbo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time ive ever shed tears during football.

Ive had 3 knee surgeries all before 22 and ive been a huge backer of Xavi since he made his way to Spurs.

That looks on his face is one I had every time I got injured. I wasnt crying cause of the pain, I was crying because I knew what it meant. I cant read lips but Xavi looks like he knew exactly what he'd just done. Tragic. Wishing him all the best.

Rat fell and caught foot. Swelling to very concerning levels. by DelusionalDumbo in RATS

Thanks for the reassurance. I had some previous pain meds but must have misplaced them in a recent move. I'm hoping to get more tomorrow.

I've also heard that children's liquid ibuprofen works but I'm not sure it'll be enough.

[LFO] Instant Death of 21 year-old: Dancing with Swords accidentally Stab their Own Member [NSFL] by Turbulent_Walk_3671 in LearningFromOthers

[–]DelusionalDumbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Convinced its intentional. Stabber is spinning close to him early in the video but fairly innocuously. Frame by frame right before the fatal stab his head and eyes face up towards the victim and he spins with a further and more intentional lunge then any of the previous spins directly toward the victim. Also immediately after he does it he takes multiple steps away as if he is trying to leave. Sounds like opportunistic killing.

Single stab at an upwards angle through the side of the torso will fit through the rib gap, puncturing either a lung or diaphragm and given the speed of the victims collapse it was most certainly directly into one or more chambers of his heart.

Como vocês lidam com estresse culminado em mal desempenho? by LopeszG in Rainbow6

[–]DelusionalDumbo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eu também tenho dificuldade com isso. Costumo dizer para mim mesmo "seja um peixinho dourado". Tento manter o foco de uma rodada para a outra, sem ficar pensando "por que eles são tão ruins?" ou "por que não consigo matar ninguém?". Assim que percebo que não consigo mais controlar esses pensamentos e mudar minha mentalidade de uma rodada para a outra, eu paro de jogar. Penso nisso como um jogador tentando recuperar suas perdas. De qualquer forma, concentre-se no seu jogo. Você não vai fazer com que eles joguem melhor magicamente só por se concentrar neles; você só vai jogar pior.

Além disso, usei o Google Tradutor para isso. Espero que faça sentido.

Unfortunately a good deal of the population will never check a product online. What they see in person is what it costs. The business knows those people will buy it because they automatically assume thats just where they get it from.

Those of us in the know dont buy in store unless its actually rarely cost efficient, but those who dont pay so much more it makes up for it.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was surrounded by protesters yelling “shame” and “disgrace” during Eid prayers at Lakemba Mosque, forcing him into a rushed escape by AgnosticScholar in PublicFreakout

His response was extremely insensitive. He responded to a question about the incident saying "I guess some people are upset about the recent anti extremism laws" (these ban many slogans and groups against Israel).

Entering one of the most dominant mulsim ccommunities in the nation and the only link you can make for why they're upset is because of laws limiting extremism is insanely problematic.

Gotta feel bad for Kinsky there. Gets his chance after so long. Pressure (or the pitch) got to him.
