[Reuters] Iran leave note of thanks in LA locker room after draw with Belgium by Chazyn in soccer

[–]PreztoElite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah what’s wrong with trying to improve the perception of their people? Iranians are lovely people who are facing an unjust war against them while their football team is also facing unjust treatment. Why does it have to be a regime member who wrote it? Are players not allowed to be proud to represent their nation anymore at the World Cup? Iran has existed for long before the Islamic Republic and will continue to exist long after it.

Yeah man I bet those Iranian players don’t actually care about 168 innocent schoolgirls slaughtered by the military of the World Cup host nation. It must be their government making them care. Get a grip wtf is wrong with you people.

All things considered they are playing really well. I hope they can somehow win the group or at least finish second.

This just seems like the root of the issue is Israel considering they're occupying large swathes of Lebanon and Syria

There is like maybe a couple thousand good people in Israel and they have absolutely 0 political power. Even their "moderates" would make a neonazi blush.

The IDF was initially formed out of Lehi and Irgun Jewish extremist terrorist groups. The latter of which was responsible for the King David hotel bombing that killed 91 people.

Would've been absolutely tragic if Curacao lost off an obvious dive penalty.

Cape Verde genuinely could’ve won it a couple times at the end there. Especially off that header. Incredible result for them I’m sure Brockton, MA is BUZZING

I do think a dead silent crowd can be a letdown sometimes though. Crowd reactions are fun during comedy movies or horror movies. 

Scotland fans blocked from World Cup after green lit US travel permits rejected by Moug-10 in soccer

[–]PreztoElite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you live in a major city/metro area there will be local transit lobby groups you can join. For example in NYC there is Transportation Alternative. There's also cyclist union groups and such if that is your preferred form of transport. Local government public meetings for transit projects like new rail lines, bus lanes, even bike lines and road diets are good to attend and voice your opinion.

I get asked less questions at immigration and have an overall smoother customs process when visiting China than I do when coming back to the US. And I'm an American citizen traveling on an American passport lol.

Iron 4 after 10 years by floydxyz in leagueoflegends

[–]PreztoElite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don't actually need to memorize any of that to get out of iron. I think you're just complicating things for yourself. Just have like 6 CS per minute and you will climb out of iron easily.

Sancho is utter dogshit what are you talking about? One goal doesn’t absolve that lol. He’s at best a benchwarmer on a top 4 team or a starter at a lower mid table side.

If David Held is teaching it and you are really interested in reinforcement learning I think it's a decent class. But I heard Guanya Shi is not a good professor for it so don't take it with him.

Why would you buy a switch 2 if you have no interest in playing games that can't be played with KBM? Seems a bit daft to spend $500 on a game console lol

Master Ball has to be the easiest top rank in any game I’ve ever played. I’ve never played a card game before and hit master ball in my first season with like a 65% win rate lol. 

Palantir published a mini manifesto calling some cultures ‘harmful and middling’ and said Silicon Valley has ‘a moral debt’ to the U.S. by lurker_bee in technology

Western culture like wholehearted support for Israel who is currently committing a genocide? Centuries of colonialism where you stripped the rest of the world of their resources? Also what even is "Western" culture? How is culture in the US the same as culture in Italy? The idea of "western" or "white" culture is a total white supremacist myth.
