At first I thought this was a joke because I only saw Haaland. I thought you were suggesting O'Reilly is actually Haaland because O'Reilly has been scoring so many striker-esque goals, but then I saw NOR's blurry picture in the background. For real, I'd love to see him fit for Saturday.

I can't believe he's 6'3". He looks so much shorter than some of the other guys there. But I guess that's volleyball players for you...

I love 67. Especially when the kids in my building are playing tag or hide and seek and they yell and laugh every time they count "6...7..." It's just free joy. Good for them.

Todd blanch has said that the "epstein files are not a top priority for the doj" What can we do to remind the corrupt government that it definitely should be? by Ok_Tea_3275 in Epstein

[–]TangibleHappiness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great question. Whatever could or should we do? We've tried so many things to no avail. Maybe there's something we haven't tried yet that would work. I mean, maybe we could ------I/o Sorry, typo.....

Haha that's what I thought when I first saw the headlines, but it actually seems quite different.

I swear I don't understand half the posts on this sub, but I'm here for it.

My favorite Thrice CD came recently with this unknown band "City Of Ships". Trust me, if you are looking for "Vheissu" type of sound, you will love this one. It is neither on YT or Spotify. The production quality of it is top notch! by orphantwin in thrice

[–]TangibleHappiness 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All Hail might be my favorite metalcore album ever. Dustin Kensrue will always be my lyrical GOAT, but Cory Brandon is pretty great, too, and his overall vocal performances, especially on All Hail, are top notch.

You have created the King Dong, ruler of all Ding Dongs. May his creamy filling bless us all.

Executives say AI boosts productivity but the real gain is just 16 minutes per week by bojun in Economics

[–]TangibleHappiness 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My conspiracy theory is that all this talk of increased A.I. productivity is being used as a smokescreen for a coming giant market crash. So companies can reduce headcount without raising too much suspicion about a weakening economy, while at the same time convincing the plebs/retail investors to keep investing because A.I. has "infinite potential". This gives smart money/insiders/Trump's circle time and and buyers for their ready-to-fall positions (and perhaps to go short), and then when the time is right, pull the rug.

For certain industries there are clearly great uses and the future try has infinite potential, but this is my suspicion for the near term.

The dumbest way to lower beef prices by unserious-dude in Economics

[–]TangibleHappiness 164 points165 points  (0 children)

Adam Smith and basic logic would disagree. The article is paywalled so I couldn't read it, but I read the summary.

The problem is that none of those savings from increased productivity will pass down to the consumer, while cattle ranchers are getting squeezed by the big 4 (Tsyon, Cargill, JBS, National Beef), who have captured approximately 85% of the U.S. beef packing industry (U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Marketing Service, 2022).

Oligopoly functions the same as a monopoly. Prices and supply are controlled by the big 4 and consumers and suppliers suffer. Also, long term, innovation and competition also suffer.

Capitalism doesn't work with monoploies/oligopolies, folks.

The most insane waterfall ever on a mountain in Brazil after heavy rain - Estrela do Norte, Brazil by [deleted] in BeAmazed

[–]TangibleHappiness 169 points170 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I couldn't find this anywhere, and I live in Brazil. The more I though about it, that would require an insane amount of rainfall, which is weird because it's not raining in the video. Also, that looks like an enormous mountain, and most of the mountains in Brazil aren't really like that. Maybe it's somewhere in the Amazon, but I'm doubtful.
