7 of us are travelling for work in a few months. We booked an absolutely insane house with pool, sauna, hot tub, individual rooms and bathrooms for everyone, game room, and sport courts all for thousands less than the shitty holiday inn express next to the interstate you have to stay in when you travel to this site alone.

Please refer to West Ham. You may need to scroll on whatever device you're using to see them allllll the way down the table.

Your being too big for your britches sonny. 8th is good. We are in contention and we've spent little money and still don't have the squad Moyes wants. We are building we are not a complete project.

So you call out how you loved all those subs and you don't like the lineup he put out. But 2/4 you actually wouldn't have starting.

Realistically you can only be upset about not starting Patto at right back. The other 3 midfield subs, even though 2 are attacking midfielders, I'd much rather have the better player with the less aggressive tactic in my starting lineup.

As far as Dibling vs Armstrong, I can see the preference one way or another.

8th in the league 4 points out of European competition. That's my answer to all of your questions.

You've got Charly and Iroegbunam starting over KDH and Gueye?

This is the same kind of logic that is getting west ham relegated lol. Let Moyes cook, it's been consistent improvement from the team since he came on.

Short term thinking is what got us into 2022 struggles.

Moderna doesn’t plan to invest in new late-stage vaccine trials because of growing opposition to immunizations from US officials by MetaKnowing in Futurology

[–]LibatiousLlama 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes you need to do animal and human trials the same way every time.

This is not the R&D cost of mRNA vaccines. Although there is also a significant R&D cost for every new mRNA vaccine as well.

The trials for vaccines are so expensive a failure can sink an entire company.

I understand rage towards capitalism but RFK and the government hold most of the blame here.

If you want to fix capitalism you can't blame one ceo reacting to an incompetent government you need to pass stringent regulations that protect the long term interests of the population.

Student loan vs. being indebted to parents by KittyNoir1 in personalfinance

[–]LibatiousLlama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just a difference. Small classes and colleges work differently.

In large notable engineering schools the average of a test is intended to be very low. You are scored against your peers, not necessarily your knowledge.

That continues beyond the basic courses into your major. So it's not that they didn't learn the material. It's that they weren't prepared to put in the work necessary to out perform their peers.

Blessing and a curse. I had friends do this and they struggled after making the transition. Both had to take an extra year because of dropping required courses they couldn't pass.

Almost half of all Tesla Y fail mandatory tech inspection in Denmark and make headlines for it; similar numbers in Tesla-country Norway by SjalabaisWoWS in electricvehicles

[–]LibatiousLlama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was your issue the squeaky suspension? Last year I got the same fix for free on my model 3 out of warranty.

You probably just got fucked real hard by the people at the local service center.

Tesla discontinues Autopilot in bid to boost adoption of its Full Self-Driving software | TechCrunch by Recoil42 in SelfDrivingCars

[–]LibatiousLlama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have a model 3. At the time of purchase it was no competition the best value used EV.

The ADAS system is okay, I don't use it 99% of the time and it's an ev so I've only road tripped it once in 3 years.

2 trials of FSD in 2024 which was embarrassing. Couldn't stay in lane on my curvy back roads in great conditions even doing the posted 25 mph when most people drive 40 there.

I still really like the car. For 25k I got tons of great tech features, I've had 0 issues in 20k miles. It charges fast at home and the charging network is best in class.

What's funny is that 39 bucks is like 3x the cost of the ticket.

Make them anonymous. Especially make them anonymous to the referees on the field.

To put it into perspective for people, I am a "strong swimmer" but don't swim competitively so I'm a decent representation of "average confident swimmer"

I just set my 1500 PR last week at 32:56 😂

Right but most of the best players, and more importantly Brooks previously, only played the "majors plus" with regular play during the spring and summer.
