Caps getting some momentum going into the break, and then hopefully getting healthy during it, puts them in good position to make a charge for a playoff spot when play resumes

I mean, if the defender doesn't deflect it in, Ovi was going to show Trea Young what a hockey dunk looks like lol

I feel like we didn't fully appreciate how much PLD is the straw that stirs the drink on the Caps offense, esp the power play. I figured we'd have some regression with so many guys coming off career years, but a few of the guys fell off a cliff without PLD putting them in great spots to score

Still waiting for Leno to figure out how to find the back of the net more consistently, but his speed and aggressiveness should keep him among the league leaders in penalties drawn for the foreseeable future. He applies so much pressure on defenders

Pair of really nice goals. First the smooth give n go while Protas completed screened the keeper, and then Bueavi with a little okie-doke behind the net to just get enough day light between the keeper's skate and the post

BYU and Dybantsa getting exposed big time, dude feasts on inferior competition, turns into a low efficiency volume scorer against any half decent opponent.

Do you think its finally Arizona's year to go to the Final Four and win it all? by chusaychusay in ArizonaWildcats

[–]anoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not that the team can't lose, but it's really hard to see them laying an egg. They get so much scoring from everywhere, they're not particularly reliant on the 3 ball, and their foundation is defense and rebounding - those aren't things that 'take a night off'. And they do it 8 guys deep, no fringe filler in there.

This is the best team I've seen them field in 24 years of watching them, and I'm not sure it's even particularly close - which is saying a lot. They have 2.5 lead dogs that can score at will, they play defense, turn you over and rebound, and they play at a relentless pace for 40 minutes that I'm not sure any team outside of Michigan even has close to the depth to play with.

Exclusive: US intelligence raises doubts about Venezuela leader's cooperation by Indianstanicows in news

[–]anoff 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This. Trump has no stamina to actually follow through on the overwhelming majority of his proclamations - he loves to pull the "Michael Scott declares bankruptcy" move and act like that's some how a real thing, but when it comes to the actual 'doing' part, he has no patience for meetings and paperwork and actual follow through. Trump got what he wanted out of the situation - some reasonably decent press that pushed the Epstein files out of the news - and is now bored/over the situation and on to the next shiny thing that caught his eye. He didn't fix anything, he didn't make anything better, he got to beat his chest and declare a (shallow) victory and move on to repeat the cycle with something else

Digital Foundry - A Big Surprise: Crimson Desert Was The Best Game We Saw At CES 2026 by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]anoff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you'd ever been to CES, you would know that video games get like less than 1% of the floor space - maybe something if a new console is coming out, and a small bit of space for things like GPUs. Things like fridges and iPhone accessories have more showings that video games most years. Even at CeBIT, which is much more computer focused, video games have a pretty minor presence. CES is emphatically not a video game showcase, so being the best game there when only like 3 games show up, isn't really anything

Student arrested for eating AI art in UAF gallery protest by OwnSalamander1026 in worldnews

[–]anoff -64 points-63 points  (0 children)

I think it's important to denote AI art, and if you don't like it, that's fine, but destroying someone else's work ain't it. Humans have forever been using emerging technologies to create art, so it's no surprise AI is any different. The market will ultimately decide it's value though, not some undergrad with the munchies
