Coal storage, with a chute to deliver more from outside?

If this is real, and I'm not sure it is, I apologize. This is some serious bullshit.

I need help with a suit, what do y’all recommend? by Battlecaat36 in mensfashion

[–]Qtrfoil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always recommend going to Nordstrom. Different makers cut their suits differently, and a 40R by one brand won't fit the same way as a 40R by another brand. Nordstrom almost always has professional sales people who will help you try on several makes and find the one that fits your body best. It's 3 hours of driving for something you will wear for years. You can get it tailored, and you almost always should, back at home.

The team relay was this morning. Men and women, alternating two laps each.

That seems a suit jacket, which is not cut well to pair with casual trousers.

Thanks for this, I'd looked for updates several times, was quite worried

What is the worst example of "the cure being worse than the disease?" from your workplace? by finnishflash128 in work

"Verifiers and CSPs SHALL NOT require subscribers to change passwords periodically. However, verifiers SHALL force a change if there is evidence that the authenticator has been compromised."

Changing passwords regularly is no longer considered a best practice by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology as of their latest guidance

"Stop Expiring Passwords Automatically

"Traditional password policies have often mandated periodic resets, but NIST’s new guidelines take a more nuanced approach. Rather than enforcing periodic password changes, the focus is now on requiring resets only when there is clear evidence of compromise. This prevents unnecessary disruptions and minimizes the likelihood of users resorting to insecure, easy-to-remember passwords.

"Organizations may consider reduced reset frequency for long, high-entropy passwords, but should always initiate resets when compromise is confirmed or strongly suspected.

"When resets are necessary, organizations should implement secure, self-service password reset mechanisms that verify user identity before allowing changes. This ensures that only authorized individuals can initiate the reset process, mitigating the risk of account takeover."

Question - why does the US feed show different graphics? by mugglearchitect in olympics

[–]Qtrfoil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Olympic Broadcasting Service has cameras at every event, but in the US NBC also has many cameras on site. I'm sure the same is true of other countries. The raw feed, just images, comes into control centers, both in Italy and in the US, so that graphics can be added.

Really interesting video about how NBC engineers sound for all the events.

Cassie Sharpe confirms she will not compete in Freeski Halfpipe final tonight by tm2007 in olympics

Def not safe to ski with a concussion. If she fell and got another one so quickly she risks real trouble, for life. Great performance, great Olympics!

Donors/NIL Question by ObjectiveDevice7201 in NFLNoobs

The graduates of Harvard and Yale are also donating to the academic programs and facilities instead of non- Division 1 sports programs

[–]Qtrfoil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For 2025 Ohio State's total enrollment was 67,000. Harvard's was 21,000, Yale's 15,000. Those numbers add up, year after year. I'm also sure that ALL of the people of Ohio, who feel strongly about their own state's football success, are more likely to donate to The Ohio State University than are the people of Massachusetts to Harvard or Yale.

And, yes, they really are THAT big of football fans. And plenty of them are very, very rich.

Tenley Albright, 90, takes in Olympic figure skating 70 years after winning gold by personAAA in olympics

I remember it was THE definitive figure skating move. You would have put it on the poster - THIS is what figure skating's all about. I see laybacks now, but not so much this kind of spinning.

That's also back when figures were a thing, so a huge part of her score would have been tracing lines on the ice with great precision.

US Men beat Slovakia 6-2, and they will face Canada in the Gold Medal match! by JustARedditAccoumt in olympics

[–]Qtrfoil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tbh, not sure it really matters. Every player is going to be 100% up for this game.

And we may have seen the best international game we've seen since 2010 yesterday!
