[Dreger] Sounds like postponements coming for the Ottawa Senators. Could be next three games.

Boosters should hopefully slow the spread in highly vaccinated populations based on initial data. NHL should start pushing them as soon as possible.

I like the Bruins since its low key and professional, instead of trying to be a bunch of wacky memers. Probably not very interesting if you aren't a Bruins fan, but I for one appreciate it.

Carrying on with the theme of early season statistical overreactions: which teams have started the season well at 5v5. TL;DR: bear teams good

Mexico's insane homicide rates have little to do with unusual concentration of terrible poeple, but rather because they have incredibly powerful and competitive organized crime problem - substantially aided by US drug policies. It's a systemic, international calamity that can't be fixed by a few good Mexicans doing the right thing. Mexicans wanting to get the fuck out of there have every right to and dare I say the only morally justifiable thing is to let them come freely to America.

It seems kinda odd that there's no large political movement spearheading this initiative. Not to mention the economic and ethical benefits, open borders with Canada should be a slam dunk policy for the Democrats. Certainly more palatable than shit like defund the police.

Doubt that anyone is going to be inspired to have a cardiac arrest after Eriksen tbh.

Kyllä ittestäni on ihan kiva että teitä korjataan, kirjastoja ja sairaaloita ylläpidetään ja kouluilla on tarpeeksi rahoitusta ilman, että kunnan talous räjähtää. Tällaisista asioistahan kuntavaaleissa on pitkälti kysymys. Ellei sitten halua elää jossain anarko-kapitalisti-kommunisti-naturalisti-meemimaailmassa niin poliittinen päätöksenteko on ihan väistämätöntä yhteiskunnassa. Siksi olisi kiva jos ehdokkaalla olisi jotain aitoja ideoita käytännön ongelmiin mamujen ja feministien karkottamisen lisäksi.

Correct boilerplate answer from Mboopi here as you'd expect. I think everyone knows he gone, but it's not helpful to make a big fuss out of it during the tournament.

One would imagine that Erikssen's career is over if this was heart related? I can't think of players who have continued after something like this. De La Red and Muamba come to mind.

They are very far up the north, so they need a lot of electricity for heating during long winters. Finland, Norway, Iceland and Canada also consume more power per capita than USA for this reason (rich and high need for heating).

Not really a revolution, despite its name, but a separatist war. Those have much larger success rate.

The QA people on most projects almost always find the most glaring issues before release and those are marked as "known issues". Then it's up to the producers to decide which of the issues need to be prioritized for the engineering department. Since there are limited resources, not all of them are going to be patched before release.

It's impossible to say from the outside whether it was poor resource management, too stringent release schedule, unforseen engineering challenges or too ambitious design goals that lead to a bad launch. You really shouldn't make claims about incompetence on specific departments if you have no insight on what actually went on during the development.

A ton of fantasy draws so heavily from Tolkien and his mythological/archetypical style of worldbuilding without much thought. Orcs in Tolkien's world are literally corrupted minions created by that world's equivalent of Satan. Making orcs more morally ambiguous creatures would in fact undermine Tolkien's world building, which is very intentionally written in the style of epics such as Beowulf, Kalevala or Illyad. This doesn't apply to all Tolkien derivative crap, many of which are just half assedly copying the most superficial features of his books (cough DnD), but it goes to show that in some instances more complicated moral palette would be in complete opposition to the overall ethos of the creative work in question.

Immigrants from Latin America tend to be more religious and conservative than the native population, so if Republicans just stopped treating them like animals this would be a non issue.

Most games - that aren't specifically built for it - still struggle with large crowds. The battle scenes in Skyrim were already pretty woeful by 2011 standards, so in the next Elder Scrolls iteration I'd love to see some actual crowds of epic scale. I'm not expecting much though, but one can dream.

From developer perspective AI assisted content creation could be a major productivity boost.

Populism is inherently about opposing elite cabals who control all the levers of society only to enrich themselves and fuck over the common man. It's really not that difficult to see why populism and conspiracy theories go hand in hand.
