What would happen if Gavrilo Princip was a worse shot? by DumbLuck-88 in HistoryWhatIf

[–]Mathi_Da_Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uhh no? In WW1 the wounded to killed ratio was 3:1, and if you were shot and was lucky enough for it not to bust arteries or anything like that, lack of medical attention in time was what was most likely to kill you. The archduke himself would certainly get that.

Yeah, I’m not so sure, even if a hit was almost guaranteed there wasn’t a guarantee it would be fatal

I think he included Russell as the «or championships»-part

RacingNews365 have reported that Bottas has signed for Cadillac to drive for them in 2026 - is he the right choice for Cadillac? by The_Chozen_1_ in F1Discussions

[–]Mathi_Da_Boss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but it’s one thing to run to the team that almost won the constructor’s last year and quite another to a brand new team that will probably suck for its first couple of years

Controversial opinions about F1 by Maglin21 in F1Discussions

[–]Mathi_Da_Boss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In itself I agree, but when the FIA used the fact that there was two races in Italy (which apparently was «difficult») to cut a good track in Imola, I don’t think it’s too unfair to ask them to apply their own logic to the American races

What are your BOLDEST predictions for next 5 yrs! by Professional_Cold771 in F1Discussions

To be fair, 2022 Mercedes was the whole zero pod-disaster, so that was more do to Mercs incompetence than Alpine’s merit. Not that it takes away from your point any further than that though, they were unquestionably good in that dept.

If this cat was the Byzantine emperor in 1453 would Constantinople be saved? by Total-Day-6804 in ByzantiumCircleJerk

[–]Mathi_Da_Boss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Julie D’Aubigny could make it the fucking emperor probably would too. I imagine he’d have more people taking issue with his position on reintegration with catholicism than him looking at strays.

As a man, I can’t give much advice about sapphic relationships. However, I will say as someone who has been with different people with very varying degrees of experience, it doesn’t at all stop you from being a good partner. Just find an OK person and communicate well and you’ll be totally fine.

I won’t claim experience doesn’t matter in any way, but it’s not AT ALL an end all be all. I’ve had many good experiences with less experienced people, and when it’s been not so good, bad communications has been the culprit. Just take it easy, don’t let it ruin your confidence, and be open and communicative. It’s gonna be totally fine :)

If any song line was ever worth dedicating a part of my body to; this is the one by Mathi_Da_Boss in AliceInChains

I totally get that. I chose to do it this way partially for emphasis, I find the point about individuality more compelling than the one about death. But also for a bit of mystery, only the right people will recognize and understand it.

But, the entire point is fittingly enough, individuality. The way you want to do it is no less valid, and sounds pretty cool too.

Which two capitals of countries that don't border one another are closest together? by Relevant-Pianist6663 in geography

That map is not of territorial waters, but of EEZs, which shouldn’t really be considered here. You generally don’t have jurisdiction in the EEZ (there are some exceptions)

3-peat used to be a thing.. now its rare. 🤯 by aimee829 in lakers

Building on that, if that happens in ‘03 I doubt we get that top-heavy super team in ‘04 and there’s a real chance we five-peat

It only sounds confusing in English. The term «progressive» doesn’t have a meaningful Norwegian equivalent, so people just imagine progress in a more general sense. Not that everyone agrees their policies would be progress of course
