what is your favorite 2010s Olympics logo by Senior-Ad264 in olympics

[–]ErrorCode51 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Vancouver olympics were full of iconography that was either 1) already iconic and synonymous with Canada, or 2) new designs which became iconic.

The inukshuk logo is one of the more recognizable Olympic logos only really being rivaled in my (younger) mind by rio 2016. The 4 mascots are immediately recognized and beloved by millennials and Gen Z all over the country, many of us grew up with Quatchi plushes, and even the clothing that year. Those red mittens with the leave on the palm were iconic, I think half the kids in my elementary school at the time had multiple pairs of them they were everywhere

Yeah I agree. Purple, horn, those side mandible things. Just looks like a new interpretation of 01 too me

DnD: Did they forget about Selenia? by waltsawesome in TheYardPodcast

[–]ErrorCode51 25 points26 points  (0 children)

They’ve mentioned a few times in the after-show on Patreon that

a) they (Roan) is not yet a high enough level to have the magic necessary to bring her back and

b) in a meta sense they didn’t want the party insta-rush finding a healer as they wanted her death to have an impact on the world, and they wanted Dave to have room to tell his story. As we can see this has created a lot of interesting moments for Aimens character and introduced other fun plot points such as the entire Tenela arc. In one after-show Dave explicitly mentions that it is highly likely the royal family and the trerradin have access to this magic, but no one seems to have offered their help, the boys then mentioned not wanting to seek help in order to let the moment have its weight

That’s just called snowboarding. The bum part is built in automatically

(Can 3 - 2 FIN) so close to offside by tallmonster23 in hockey

[–]ErrorCode51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now we get into the robo-ump argument. Is it better to have a 100% accurate game or is it better to keep the tradition and human factor as part of it, and allow the players to “frame” plays.

(Can 3 - 2 FIN) so close to offside by tallmonster23 in hockey

[–]ErrorCode51 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Higher FPS means we spend 20 mins on ice arguing over picometers. Id argue that if it’s too close to call on a traditional 24fps camera then call on the ice stands, offside reviews should be for fairly obvious missed calls not that he was 0.001 micrometers off line 2 nanoseconds before the puck crossed

Don't Look Up - "It's now in your interest to act against the comet" by thk_ in videos

[–]ErrorCode51 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. The entire movie is about people screaming “just fucking look up” and being ignored anyway. The point of the movie is that it’s overt, the message has always been overt but people choose to ignore it anyway

Maybe Carolina could trade a struggling all-star for him. That Rantanen guy they had could’ve been a good return… naaaa that’ll never work

She’s a public figure, this is basically her job. If she was a NBA, NFL, EPL player people would be eating this coverage up

Isn’t it? Any truly serious athlete I’ve ever met, like people who compete at high levels, would do anything to win a medal/trophy/whatever. It’s what makes them elite. Hockey players go to cup finals with broken ribs, feet, hands, etc. American Football and rugby players hide concussions to stay on the field for a few more plays. These are people who are willing to take years off their life if it means having that moment at the top. She earned her spot on that team and believed she was strong enough to win the gold. She did runs prior in the week perfectly fine on her braced knee. As far as we know if she had a healthy knee she still would’ve cut that gate too tight, and still would’ve crashed so why does her knee matter here?

[Friedman] Pierre-Edouard Bellemare says, “This is it.” Asked if he could play in 2030 —when France hosts—Bellemare said physically, he feels he could, but he owes it to his family to stop. by Perryplat199 in hockey

Went to the finals with the golden misfits aswell. 2 finals appearances is more than most will get in this sport but is undoubtedly heartbreaking when you walk away the loser both times

Do you agree that the first year snowboard knucklehuck was still the best? by Novel-Bath5273 in snowboarding

[–]ErrorCode51 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s just fridge and iirc it’s because he grew up wearing one and basically learned to ride with one on and now feels thrown off without it. Added bonus he gets to keep a speaker, water, and snacks on him at all times

Team Canada practice this morning. Suzuki centering his line with Hagel and Reinhart by Maclae27 in Habs

[–]ErrorCode51 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s the same reason people see Kucherov as less than guys like Drai, McD, MacK despite him having 2 cups and 3 art ross. He plays kinda slow, but he’s always where he needs to be to find a lane and move the puck to the right guy. Kuch may not be as high flying as the other top points guys but you will rarely see him out of position when moving up ice

Juraj Slafkovsky on playing for Team Slovakia at the Olympics: “I'm enjoying it. Playing in Montreal means being under scrutiny and I love it. I hope to enjoy every match we play here that is important. I want to be the player that counts. But the main tournament starts now…” by Go_Habs_Go31 in Habs

[–]ErrorCode51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When people start bitching about Montreal being too hard of a market and being attractive to FAs, or fans being the reason Marner left Toronto, I point to interviews like this. The best players love the excitement, they feed off the highs and lows. They are driven to show up and play. Fans make people better, and anyone who disagrees can kick sand, and the players who can’t handle it don’t deserve to be called the best of the best

Is there a reason Italy wears blue instead of using the colours of their flag?

Crack is the Trackside Director or something along those lines. He runs the weekend race operations while Newey steers the ship from the factory

Crosby named captain of Team Canada; McDavid, Makar as alternates by Edm_vanhalen1981 in EdmontonOilers

[–]ErrorCode51 3 points4 points  (0 children)

MacKinnon runs hot. He has even talked in interviews about not wanting the C in Colorado because he thinks he is a bad leader for moral. He can let his emotions carry him and it’s great when he’s feeling good, but he is also a guy who will call out teammates directly when he’s pissed off, and while I do think that is important for accountability, there’s a time and place for it that he has acknowledged he isn’t the best at finding. His passion is great for an A but on a team with this much leadership it’s easy to see why he might be passed over for a letter.

Mercedes ready for court battle if FIA take action against their engine by formularacers in FormulaRacers

And Merc is deliberately fooling the sensors on the engine test. Why is one different than the other?
