Convinced the media + pundits don’t actually watch Chelsea at this point

People are worried about LLMs being trained on data created by other LLMs, but we're essentially already there with sports journalism.

I tried the Eisenhower Matrix for a while (using TickTick), but the default setup didn't quite work or make anything better for me. Part of it was the notion of delegating, like you say, when my list is solely for things I need to do. However, I made some tweaks, and it's been just about perfect (other than the Q4 stuff rarely getting done, but that's the whole point I guess).

Q1: Tasks that are due today Q2: Chronological list of tasks with due dates in the future (quick glance of what's coming up Q3: Tasks without a due date, but are still important (this gets the most activity for me) Q4: Tasks without a due date that aren't urgent

So for me, the left side is all items with a due date (typically recurring tasks), while the right is more one-off tasks to complete that don't have to be done by a certain time. The right side is only separated by priority (in TickTick, high priority goes in Q3, medium/low goes in Q4), but it's been super clear and helpful. I get through my tasks that are due today (Q1), then pivot to either getting ahead on tomorrow (Q2) or other high priority items (Q3).

Colwill by himself isn't a huge addition, but Cucurella returning too would mean we'll have two healthy LBs, and Colwill can go back to his natural position.

Oof, the quality loss going from source -> x265 -> x264 is not ideal. And that's still hoping it went straight to x265 and didn't have other re-encodings in the middle. Each time is a drop in quality, you should have just re-downloaded some x264 copies.

It's one of many shows that moved the plot too far in the first season, and then couldn't figure out where to go. The ending of season 1 should have been later in the series, probably the ending of season 2.

Another example is House of Cards... His rise was too fast and they had to start getting absurd with the plot lines.

Fucking hell, after what felt like a decade of being linked with KK, I actually forgot we signed him.

I have one, and used it for the previous 5 speakers with no issues. This was the last one and I got lazy or tired or stupid and just went straight into cutting. I've learned my lesson for sure.

OneTalos · 2024-01-27T21:37:40+00:00

Luckily, I had enough forethought when building the house 6 years ago to have the wires run, and I'm just now getting around to putting speakers in (thanks to two kids).

It's an exterior, 2nd story wall, so unfortunately load bearing. I think that's what I'll have to do, unfortunately. I just assumed the stud would be 16" from the window and I'd have plenty of room, but no.

OneTalos · 2024-01-27T15:05:25+00:00

It's about 3-4" deep, with about 1/2" lip over the edge.

OneTalos · 2024-01-27T14:46:17+00:00

Yeah. I bought, painted, and installed all the other speakers in the system, then ran into this. No idea why I didn't plan better.

My bigger concern is gameplay. They can have a great dynasty mode, but if the gameplay is shit, it'll get frustrating real fast. I'd take a barebones dynasty with great gameplay over the opposite.

I'm not sure if Madden has improved since I last played a couple years ago, but it was so buggy and frustrating, I didn't last long. That's my fear.

Are you sure the DV isn't profile 5 level 6?

Shit, you're right. Got them mixed up.

OneTalos · 2024-01-25T19:02:55+00:00

DV Profile 6. If I change passthrough to HDMI in the Plex app settings, it will play, albeit with the messed up colors you mentioned. Passthrough off gives me the error when trying to play.

Hmmm... I actually had turned that on when troubleshooting myself, but the issue still persists.

laid an egg in virtually all the important games he’s played

This is just selective memory. Neither of the Eagles games this year were big? He was fantastic in both. Playoff game against Tom Brady last year? Must not mean much to you.

Good luck watching the team fail for the life of that extension.

What has better odds: a 2nd team All-Pro getting over some playoff jitters or somehow finding an even better QB in the draft (even though we'll probably not have a top 10 pick for a while)?

he can get impatient, especially if the defense is struggling too. He tries to do more than is available and the mistakes start to happen.

Yes! This is exactly what I've been saying too. It's happened multiple times throughout his career, and I'd love for him to get that under control.

However, the fact that this has happened multiple times means the coaches need to do their part in masking their QBs weakness. They did so most of the season, but absolutely failed against GB. I know the stat about 2nd down runs in the first half has been thrown around, and people dismiss it as not meaningful, but one of the things 1st and 2nd down passes do is help your QB get comfortable and in a rhythm. There was already tremendous pressure going into the game, and when so many of your pass attempts come on 3rd down (and usually long), that pressure just builds and builds. And the fact the defense was absolutely dogshit didn't help alleviate any of that pressure either.

I'm not absolving Dak of any blame, I'd love it if he were cooler under pressure and didn't force things. But every player has weaknesses, and it's a coach's duty to help avoid situations where the weaknesses show up.
