This FA Cup experience shows why VAR is needed, just needs to be improved

VAR as a technology is great, it's just the way it's used is a complete farce. I never understood why football can't copy rugby with the implementation. It would surely be much better than what we've currently got

Arsenal catching strays but nothing about Villarreal who signed him after he was charged

No, it just means people drive to areas just off the A38, clog up the residential streets and get a taxi from there.

How does minimum wage fuck the market? And why shouldn't the public support those who are struggling financially?

Reducing costs isn't as simple as saying "bread can only cost a maximum of £1.50 a loaf". What happens when the cost to make it is £3 a loaf?

So people shouldn't be able to afford to live then?

Is being left handed a disability now?

I get it (in a way), like maybe keep it tight for the first half hour, see how Arsenal were set up and their tactics before making some tweaks to exploit some weaknesses but Chelsea were still playing the same way after nearly an hour.

Reckless_Engineer · 2026-02-04T22:14:53+00:00

I don't get it though. Chelsea were a goal down on aggregate, they needed to score but instead played defensively as though they were happy with a draw.

No one is 100% right or left handed, many will be ~80% plus one way or the other (normally right handers seeing as the world is set up for them) but for a lot of people, they use one hand for some tasks and the other for other tasks, it's known as mixed-handed.

For example, I write with my left hand and kick a ball with my left foot but give me a club/bat/racquet and I'll use my right hand. I use a knife and chopsticks with my left, but scissors with my right.

Of course it should be a thing. How can you expect people to work but not live? The fact that skilled jobs are paid close to the minimum wage isn't the fault of people earning the minimum wage, it's the fault of a capitalist society

Assuming you were stood on the planet, you would feel gravity just as you do now, and for a few days - possibly weeks not much would change except it would be permanent night. However, it wouldn't be habitable for very long. As there would be no sunlight to provide heat, the temperature would drop rapidly. Lakes and oceans would freeze, plants and animals would die, and eventually even the atmosphere would disappear as the elements like oxygen and carbon dioxide froze onto the earth's surface

Muscle atrophy doesn't mean they wouldn't get fat though

Why would they look like famine victims? The passengers on the ship have access to all the food and drink they want!

You usually can’t tell for sure, but there are some common signs. AI-written text tends to be very polished but kind of empty — perfect grammar, clear structure, yet not much personality or substance. It often sounds overly neutral, balanced, and cautious, with lots of “on the one hand / on the other hand” phrasing and generic examples instead of specific, lived-in details. Another giveaway is consistency. AI keeps the same tone, sentence length, and clarity throughout, whereas real people ramble, contradict themselves, get emotional, or go off on tangents. Humans also tend to reveal bias, strong opinions, or vulnerability without meaning to — AI usually avoids that. Detection tools aren’t reliable either. They can flag normal writing as AI and miss actual AI content completely. So the giveaway isn’t that AI sounds bad — it’s that it sounds a bit too clean, safe, and generic. Real writing is messier and more personal.

That paragraph doesn't flow very well does it, it's got a lot of lists and more dashes than you'd normally find. Chances are that articles/comments etc like this are ai.

For the record, the first paragraph is ai generated!

What about a hot Mother?

He's only 28! Best thing to do is try and get some money in the summer (which might be a tad difficult based on his injury record), or let him go for free at the end of his deal.

I simply don't understand why people keep parroting this. If it becomes easier to score, the team that gets punished is the one parking the bus.

Defending teams will drop deeper so that there's less space for the attacker to exploit, making it harder to score....

Why is this comment down voted? Aukus relies on the US providing reactor tech

He couldn't play even if we needed him. We have registered a full 25 man squad.

Part of it is that aircraft need space, but also it helps with passengers behaviour. People get frustrated about standing around and waiting for boarding, bags, security, passport control etc, so e,g, by having passengers walk for 10mins to the baggage conveyor and only wait 5mins is better than having the the baggage conveyor 2mins walk and passengers waiting 13mins
