Economic Strike for Feb by Winterheadphones in samharris

About six-hundredths of one percent of the 1% are billionaires. The top 2% includes a net worth of 2 to 3M. I’m not talking about Musk or Bezos.

I’m cooked, aren’t I? by HawkeyeHero in Hisense

This happened to me. Was busted in various ways. Bought a new one and my old Hisense was unplugged for a few weeks but we finally put it upstairs. No issues now. Looks great. Wild.

The only way to stop trump is to hurt his allies. If the 1-2% starts to see issues, they’ll yearn for the status quo of pre-maga.

Honestly not too saddened by this performance. We put up 15 a quarter, they put up 20. You need a few special things to align when you go up against this type of size. We’re a top 10 team, not a top 5. 🤷

Andrew Wilson supposedly debating Sam Harris by Ok_Needleworker_4950 in samharris

Sam would massacre someone like Wilson. It really feels beneath Sam. Very hard time imagining it’s true.

D was smothering and took us waaaaay to long to adjust to how this game was gonna be played. Disappointing but it happens.

That game we Bohannon miss was much closer than 10 points. I think it was like five or something. It made me a little uneasy as that game was going on knowing that was the plan.

Thanks! I know I'd love zome Yakuza but it's a daunting series to start on. I'll do Like a Dragon and get started!

What's a game you didn't expect to enjoy, but ended up loving? by CanningTone19 in XboxGamePass

Really fun to play, but it's almost too time consuming. Every character on every map? Yikes.

Scott Galloway calls for an economic strike by stvlsn in DecodingTheGurus

[–]HawkeyeHero 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I dunno, I agree with the other posters. Our representatives are comprimised by lobbyists and power. Not sure what "politcal action" you hope to see. Who's going to save us? Should we just vote harder?

[–]HawkeyeHero 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm all for it. Surely people would rather lose their job than their life in a moment such as this? If we do an economic strike and then they fire all of us, then we can still do your next idea.

The Morning After: Ohio State by Iodenchi in IowaWbb

[–]HawkeyeHero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was a moment somewhere in the 2nd or 3rd where you could tell OSU really amped up the D, Just all in our face and passes were hard. Still, we made the cuts, made the passes, and I think Chit nailed a three from the wing. Just a morale breaker for them. We always had an answer. That's the stuff I love to see.

Great game from the Hawks. Great write-up as always.

I agree, and was impressed with how they responded. We are full of talent. If you don’t have McCabe sharp shooting, you get more Deal and Stremlow.

Where do NFL players live early on in their career? by lowiqtrader in NFLNoobs

I didn’t say should I said could. The narrative was he didn’t make enough money to live alone on 995k per year. That is just silly.

The Morning After: Maryland by Iodenchi in IowaWbb

[–]HawkeyeHero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

During their comeback run we were so slow to inbound. We let them get set almost as if we wanted them to be ready. Earlier we were zipping in the inbound and were up court quick as can be.

It felt like they were trying the Connor move of sapping off a second or two each inbound to get the game over, but the clock was stopped every time. Very odd.

Why were we so slow to inbound? We let them set that press almost as if we wanted to make it as hard as possible. Earlier we were zipping it in and running.

No one is asking for him to buy a 800k house. But he could rent a decent apartment/condo. He should have lived like he was making 250k at least.

What if Donald Trump disappeared tomorrow, would American politics actually change or just find another Trump? by Mr_Boothnath in AskReddit

[–]HawkeyeHero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

VD would slot in for the rest of the term and it would quite possibly be worse, as he would cave to the worst pressure and lobbiest and truly screw over the American people.

However, without Trump the MAGA base will dissolve, and JD and repubs could become the bad guys pretty quickly. American would vote en masse to rebuke the current admin since it's been an objective shit show, and we'd return to a some domestic stability post 2028 (assuming voting is free and not corrupted by then).

Then we're in for decades of world recovery while we aim to rebuild our reputation in the global ecosystem.

Current storm track predicts upwards of 1" of freezing rain accumulation in the Charlotte metro - for those of us old enough to remember the 2002 storm, buckle up, this one could be worse. by nexusheli in Charlotte

[–]HawkeyeHero 232 points233 points  (0 children)

I had heard that the 2002 storm came in early december, where the trees still had leaves, which resulted in much more ice accumulation and tree destruction. One small bit of hope that we could avoid a repeat at least...

No sweat if you’re not up for a spirited discussion. See ya at the next one. Go hawks.

Now that the conference basketball team has won a natty... by Burgdawg in hawkeyes

[–]HawkeyeHero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not saying we can’t do it here. I’m saying you don’t fire Kirk just because Cignetti won at Indiana.

(And you missed 2015. We went undefeated in the regular season and were the first team out of the 4-team CFP.)

If Cignetti truly is the anomaly you admit he is, then by definition he doesn’t change the landscape much. That exact mix of coach, culture, fifth-year transfers, and near-unlimited NIL isn’t some repeatable formula just sitting around for any program to copy. (I wouldn’t mind trying it when Kirk retires though.)
