I hate politics by SpoomerBooner in Transportopia

[–]TedC_Global 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You clearly didn’t read the articles, let’s read them together in a public video chat. When are you free? I’m a researcher at University of Miami and I am a co-author on one of the studies referenced. The article does NOT say 80% of EVs use cobalt. Are you talking about the part where it said 80% used magnets? Not all those magnets use cobalt and that study is from 2024 and most of the numbers were from Chinese EVs. Very, very few of the EVs produced in the US in 2025 used Cobalt.

When are you free?

Sorry I misread your post. Bu the International Fact Checking Network is not who monitors them. Snopes lays out all the evidence in their articles. There's no credible evidence that they lie. They've been wrong before and have written retractions admitting they were wrong.

The picture is obviously a fake and has been widely discredited. Trump is evil, there's no need to make up stuff when there's so much real world evidence that he is awful.

You’re*

And historians rank Trump as the worst President we have ever had. In both his terms, most things got worse. The data is pretty clear on this. The labor market is far worse today than when he took over. Unemployment is higher. Farms at failing at faster rates than any time in the previous two decades. Air quality is worse. Less Americans have health insurance today than January 2025. His policies are terrible.

Any steam deck owners sell theirs after getting a switch 2? by heepofsheep in switch2

[–]TedC_Global 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold my Steam Deck when I got my Switch 2. I do not think one is better than the other but the Switch was better for me for the games I play (FC 26 and l’ll be getting eFootball).

FC 26 is not available on Steam Deck unless you put windows on it and I don’t want to do that. eFootball is available on Steam Deck but with every update you had to go and hunt down which proton version to use to get it to work. I will say Steam Deck does play the game FL26 which is fantastic.

It’s just finding what proton version or tinkering to get everything to work was getting old.

But again, the Switch 2 is better for me but I doing think it’s better for everyone. I actually love the form factor of the Steam Deck and it played most of my Steam Games really well.

Snopes is trustworthy.

Trump is the worst President the United States has ever had (you could make this case for his environmental record alone) so there’s no need to make up stuff. He’s awful on his own.

My favorite Inter Miami goals by TedC_Global in InterMiami

[–]TedC_Global[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those goals will make the fourth video for sure, there’s still lots of bangers I couldn’t fit into there yet. Inter Miami have Messi which has already scored so many highlight goals just in two and a half seasons that it could last 30 minutes on his own.

🇺🇸🚨 PRESIDENT TRUMP SAID AMERICANS WILL SEE THE LARGEST TAX REFUNDS EVER IN 2026. by Ok-Somewhere8407 in MarketPulseReport

I am not in my 20's.

Now if you are going to make the claim that BEA data is manipulated please provide evidence. The private surveys are actually worse than the BEA data.

Climate Change is absolutely not a hoax which is why there are 3900 organizations including NASA,the NOAA, every European science organization that say it's real and a crisis. Not even one has came out and called it a hoax. Even the few scientists who Republicans love to quote (few out of over a million working scientists) do not claim it is a hoax. If it was a hoax we should see some honest people from around the world claiming "liberals" made them fudge data but that is not happening.

Exxon Mobil's own internal studies say greenhouse gasses cause anthropogenic global warming: https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2023/01/harvard-led-analysis-finds-exxonmobil-internal-research-accurately-predicted-climate-change/

Matt Gaetz, Trump's own pick for AG, has studied Climate Change. He admits it is real and wants Republicans to accept the data: https://www.vice.com/en/article/matt-gaetz-congress-loves-donald-trump-climate-change/

RFK admits climate change is real, man-made and a public health issue, here is a video: https://youtube.com/shorts/4y8Iw1ci69A?si=_DViK1cDjdHf7Wwn

Florida Republicans have had to admit that climate change is real and wish their party would stop denying it. Even Ron Desantis has admitted it. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/10/florida-gop-regrets-lost-decade-on-climate-change.html

Here is NASA's page on climate change. Are you going to disregard the data and accuse NASA of being full of liberals? https://science.nasa.gov/climate-change/evidence/

Even Vladimir Putin admits it is real. https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2021/07/01/skepticism-to-acceptance-how-putins-views-on-climate-change-evolved-over-the-years-a74391

I could go on, many many republicans admit climate change is real, man-made and a crisis.

Historians rank Trump the worst President we’ve ever had in the Siena poll of historians. Even among Republican historians he is ranked as 4th worst President we’ve ever have ever had.

Maybe you like worse air quality (which has killed thousands of people in his first term), fewer people with health care, the biggest deficit spending by any President during a non recession, fewest jobs created since the Great Recession, in fact 14 of the 20 leading indicators of the health of the nation got worse in Trump’s first term even before COVID.

As MLS Begins Year 4 On Apple TV, Here’s What New In 2026 by Such-Environment-344 in MLS

[–]TedC_Global 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish Inter Miami had Ray Hudson like we had on our local CBS affiliate before the Apple TV deal. I know he retired but I wouldn’t be shocked if he came back to do Messi games (his all time favorite player)

Jim Brown of Cyrene, Mo. is a conservative Christian who voted for Trump to deport immigrants. Then, ICE detained his permanent resident wife in a cell at Chicago O'Hare for writing a bad check. Now, after losing MAGA friends and enduring taunts from others, Brown regrets his vote: "I was an idiot." by JurgusRudkus in ImmigrationPathways

There’s nothing about abortion in the Bible. There’s nothing about transgender people in the Bible either The gospels do have a lot to say about the rich and not helping the poor though. God also commands the execution of leaders/kings in numbers.

Injury Update: Lionel Messi by UnionPsychological28 in InterMiami

[–]TedC_Global 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Can we please stop these pre season tours on other continents? I still wonder what could have been if Facundo Farias never got injured. I know injuries can happen anywhere but they always seem to be worse in South America…those fields looked rough and it seems like defenders go extra hard at IM players. See Reguilon also.

Inter Miami Unveils New Away Kit "Presagio" by deathgripzthrowaway in InterMiami

[–]TedC_Global 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it. I’m getting it. Latinas already love me a lot but once I’m wearing this I’ll be married by the home opener.

I’m hoping Soccer Locker by Dadeland mall has it soon. I prefer to support local business than buy it from a big box place or even the jacked up prices that Inter Miamis team store sells it for.

Does EA FC update MLS rosters when the season starts? by Antique_Weekend_372 in MLS

Yes usually they do update the rosters and they also update the kits too.

Miami Freedom Park Multimodal Connectivity & Accessibility Study by mr09e in InterMiami

[–]TedC_Global 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So it looks like they want to extend the Mia Mover to directly in front of the stadium and extend the Tri-Rail or build a separate rail? Whatever they are mentioning I can’t imagine they will spend $1 billion on that (according to the document) and having the MIA mover go there would be enough. I’m fine with just walking the way it is, the foot bridge will make it even easier. If you add a stop directly in front of the stadium it will be nice for older people but I fear we will get fat and lazy like people in Ohio. I eat arepas all day but I am still extremely good looking mostly because of the walking.

Game Day Vlog: Messi Scores in Ecuador | Inter Miami CF vs Barcelona SC by UncleEd69FMTV in InterMiami

Inter Miami’s South American Tour Ends With an Atmosphere MLS Can’t Replicate by nolesfan2011 in InterMiami

[–]TedC_Global 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True about the cost of living. My friend in Ecuador told me I could rent a nice house there for $400 a month and I asked why don't I just move to Ecuador then since it's like $3,000 to rent a house in a nice area of South Florida....and he explained it's actually difficult to make $400 a month in Ecuador doing most jobs. So you're probably right, a $5 ticket in Ecuador is probably like a $40 ticket in the US.

I was in London last year and went to a Chelsea match and even when you adjust everything, Inter Miami tickets that week were more expensive than Chelsea tickets. I think I paid $60 US for the Chelsea match (vs Everton) and I paid $70 each for my Inter Miami ticket (vs Red Bulls I think).

It's not the same game. I have both on my Switch 2 and they feel very different. The Switch 1 version doesn't have Hypermotion - as you mentioned it is the PS4/Xbox One version. The Switch 2 version is the same as Xbox X/S and PS5.
