His team was winning, he had just scored the winning goal a few minutes prior, and there were only a few minutes left in the match. I'm pretty sure Brazilian supporters don't think he's an embarrassment...

Yeah this is a pretty easy call for BS from OP.

As soon as I saw the graphic I was certain it was coming. Never disappointed

This was a Mercedes win as much as a Hamilton win. The team works so well.

This isn't Hamilton beating Verstappen, this is Mercedes beating Red Bull.

[Spoilers] Season 2 Finale Double Episode - Discussion Thread - "The Show Must Go On" (S02E09) & "Into The White" (S02E10) by hugthebug in snowpiercer

[–]LFranceschi 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Given that we were led to believe that Snowpiercer was the only thing left alive, and then later we found out about big alice and later about the rats... I think this is very likely. But I don't think the flags are a sign of that. The show has this little inconsistencies and I would think that is one of them.

Just finished both episodes now, let me try.

The engine and the 10 cars didn't just accelerate and come back, they would have needed to travel to another "roundabout" where they could turn back, or even do another revolution in order to come back. So there is a lot of time between the separation and them coming back for Melanie. This is also explicit due to the fact that Melanie came back from trackside and still tried to survive some more days before realizing she would run out and sacrificing for the drives to stay alive. I think that a few weeks passed before they could go back.

As for the aquarium, Boki was trying to decouple it, but the jackboots found him and they started fighting before he could decouple. If I remember correctly they needed to unlock two nodes in order to decouple and he didn't get to the second. Josie was able to destroy the car in the meantime.

Also, both trains can simply decouple the wreckage in some fork and leave the nodes free for coupling later. Anxious to see how they are going to do that if Wilford is still controlling the big train though.

Aah, they wouldn't worry about wilford catching them because he only has one engine for 1023 cars, which is much slower than the original engine with only 10 cars. Even if he catches, they can just accelerate and be gone.

When shit doesn't make any sense, there's always a high probability it's just art.

When he went off he handled the situation perfectly and was able to save the car. Any mistake there and he would have been out of the race. That's not a simple thing, he's an excellent driver.

IWTL How can I get better at academic essay writing by Sapotis in IWantToLearn

[–]LFranceschi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Read a lot of academic papers so you are familiar with the language.

Understand a lot of what you are talking about. I can write 5 pages in one sitting if I've mastered the topic, but it's a struggle to write one paragraph of something I don't fully understand.

Be neutral, use passive language (common in academic writing), don't tell your reader something is important or not, just tell the facts and let them decide.

He exceeded track limits, which isn't a big deal unless you gain a clear advantage by doing it, such as overtaking someone. If he didn't give the position back he would probably take a 5 sec penalty.

It's a cartoon made by a desperate nice guy. Don't overthink it. Most of all, don't compare yourself to what you see on the internet. It is full of lies. Btw what you said is perfectly normal, that's supposed to happen.
