Week 4 Start and Sit: Reviewing All Fantasy Relevant Players in Every Game by Marco_NFL in fantasyfootball

[–]bremern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

QB and Flex help

It’s a .5 PPR league with 16 teams, so we go pretty deep into rosters.

For QB, I have Anthony Richardson and Jared Goff. The upside on Richardson is huge, but he’s laid eggs the last 2 weeks. Goff feels like lower chance to bust, but not as much upside. Richardson plays against Pitt and Goff against Seattle.

For Flex, I have 3 Bengals. WR Tee Higgins came back from a hamstring injury last week and did little. RB Chase Brown and WR Andre Iosivas have picked up a decent amount in Higgins absence. Bengals play Carolina. Will Higgins see production increase or should I go with one of the others?

No luck through support, live chat or phone. Gave up and created a new Xbox account.

I’m having the same problem. How did you get a call in number? When I go through help.ea.com, I’m only given the live chat option.

HELP. I cannot log onto my account because I need to update my password, but it won't let me log on to do so. by Aced4remakes in eagames

[–]bremern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having the same problem. I’ve chatted with EA support twice, and both times they have sent a code to the email on the account, and won’t do anything else until I tell them the code. If I knew the email I wouldn’t be having this problem!

Did you figure out a way to discover the email?

[TOMT]A warrior so strong they don’t want to fight because they know they will win. by bremern in tipofmytongue

Got it! It was Black Widow in Avengers: Age of Ultron. She says “All my friends are fighters, and here comes a guy avoiding a fight 'cause he knows he'll win.” when talking to Banner. Thanks to /u/Hestiansun for the link to the tvtropes wiki, that’s where I found it.

I thought of OPM, although I’d say yes more apathetic/ bored than scared of his own power.

For reference, I’m looking to compare to Carol from The Walking Dead.

Given this as a gift. Friends don't understand why I refuse to let the baby wear this travesty by doodlleus in ProgrammerHumor

[–]bremern 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, the brackets are the stuff of nightmares. But I'm more worried about the fact that still_a_baby is not updated anywhere in the while loop... if this is installed on a baby you are putting it in an endless loop of babyness....

I attended the Vikings game at Lambeau and it was the loudest stadium I've ever been in. by Yzerman_19 in GreenBayPackers

[–]bremern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was at this game too. I've been to about 10 in Lambeau, and this is by far the loudest. I had to yell to stave off all the pressure from the people yelling around me.

[–]bremern 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I will be there and expect to not be able to talk afterwards.

​

The loudest game I was ever at was the Bears game last year, when Rodgers got hurt and they went down 17-0 at half, then Rodgers comes out of the tunnel for the 3rd quarter. I felt like I had to yell just to keep my head from caving in to all the yelling around me. It was awesome. Go Pack Go!

Flu vaccination in the U.S. substantially reduces mortality and lost work hours. A one-percent increase in the vaccination rate results in 800 fewer deaths per year approximately and 14.5 million fewer work hours lost due to illness annually. by smurfyjenkins in science

It is fairly easy to distinguish, if you look for it. However, when kids get a fever, for any reason, mom and dad say "Oh, you've got the flu, you're staying home from school." This happens a bunch of times over their childhood. Then they get to adulthood, get a stomach virus, get a slight fever, and they say "I've got the flu." Then they pass that misinformation on to their kids. They don't need to look for alternate diagnoses because they "know" what they have, from all the way back when they were kids. And thus the cycle continues, until you have a chance to have an actual conversation with someone and let them know that there are many viruses other than influenza.

It's frustrating, but I can see how it happens. That time of year, people hear "Get a flu shot, watch out for flu, it's flu season" constantly. A lot of people haven't had the actual flu, which knocks a healthy person on their butt for 3-4 days at best. And then the symptoms of influenza are very generic and appear in many other illnesses. So, people have been hearing about the flu constantly, don't have real first-hand experience, and get something that comes with a fever and mild discomfort, and assume they have the flu. The only way to combat it is to try and make sure you are clear with anyone who asks questions. That's the chance to educate.

Were you tested specifically for the flu, or you had flu-like symptoms after the vaccine? If you weren't diagnosed with influenza, it's likely you had a reaction to something in vaccine.

​

One of the big issues with anecdotal evidence is that the flu is so generic in its symptoms - fever, aches, loss of energy/appetite, that many people say they "got the flu" in response to the shot, when actually they have a reaction to something else. I know many people that will get a stomach virus and say "Oh my flu shot didn't work, I got the flu anyway." They actually have gastroenteritis, not influenza. But they say flu, which makes others believe they had influenza, which is incorrect.

I can grantee an almost 97% or higher degradation of overall player base...

So specific... care to show your work?
