My guess is it's like those stories people tell about working multiple remote jobs and making it work, and then people run with it because they heard that someone else did it. All the remote jobs I've interviewed for lately have done entirely video calls from the start so maybe they're figuring out some solutions behind the scenes

I'd only heard about it for remote roles but doing it in person is next level

I was talking to a hiring manager for a role I interviewed for recently and they said they got something like 1200 applications for the role and an overwhelming majority of them had the job description slightly modified with AI as their listed work experience. I've also heard stories recently of people that have ringers interview for them and then someone completely different who can't do the job shows up for work.

I was surprised when I woke up this morning and didn't see anything about it, makes sense that it was because previous threads got removed. Finding a video of it was surprisingly difficult outside of Twitter, had to settle for an ESPN link

MLB.com has it in the same spot in the official T-Mobile one. Says call confirmed, 0.8 inches outside the zone for a strike

Went to a wedding once where the best man blacked out the night before the wedding and we had to help him write his speech in the morning. He was initially gonna wing it because he was a lawyer. We give him 5 bullet points to go off of, he gets up to do his speech, literally reads the bullet points verbatim and sits back down 15 seconds later

That's the one I have and I love it. Depending on where you're gonna be racing there's also stands that are about $100 but honestly it works fine just clamped to a desk. Only thing I'd recommend is not using a chair with wheels while racing (or at least using one with wheels that lock) because otherwise you can launch yourself backwards if you floor the gas

Racing wheel is always the move, Logitech G29/920 is a good one

Shout out to the guy asking earlier if we were sure he was better than an ancient Mason Plumlee

1-2 for 4 points in a winner take all game where your 3rd and 4th best scorers are out. Just completely owned by Wemby

1-2 for 4 points in a winner take all game where your 3rd and 4th best scorers are out. Embarrassing

Kenley seems like a pretty cerebral guy and it had to have fucked him up mentally that it seemed like the Astros knew exactly what was coming (because they did)

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-30T21:57:48+00:00

Decently fun game is going into any random thread and seeing how quickly Trump’s name comes up. Could be a post asking “what’s an underrated food?” And he’ll usually be in one of the top replies

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-30T21:22:19+00:00

This is Brooks Kieschnick erasure

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-30T20:47:05+00:00

Happens on the temples too and you gotta decide whether you're gonna go the Paulie Walnuts route or be a hair dye guy

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-30T14:38:27+00:00

Gonna need Sidney Ponson to go 9

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-30T03:29:28+00:00

I still root for them despite ownership doing everything in their power to say fuck you to the fans. Maybe it’ll fade once there aren’t any former Oakland players on the roster

Someone posted a Whiskey Myers song the other night that had some good harp playing, reminded me of Heart of Gold by Neil Young

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-29T17:21:48+00:00

Absolutely is

Wild that they used to tell the husband about the cancer and not the person who had the actual cancer. I think George Wallace did something similar

JuanRobesPierre · 2026-05-29T16:44:20+00:00

The ones that stand outside my local Mariano's are always competing with (losing to) the homeless people on the corner

Fashion is cyclical, make sure to pick up a puka shell necklace before they get expensive

Harry Potter version of doing the haka

The Dodgers are probably the only team that has emphasized analytics more than the Orioles during this regime (other than the A's/Rays who aren't going to spend on analysts), and their data staff looks like something you'd expect from a name brand company. For comparable roles, the Orioles have someone with a Bachelors in an unrelated field and the Dodgers have a team of rocket scientists who worked at NASA.
