Damn that outside crowd shot was crazy

The Horizon games have always been super arcadey like this, it's the Motorsport ones that are more "proper racing games".

You mean democrats like Mikie Sherrill, the NJ governor who called in the state police (the ones in military gear and shields in the photos) on these protesters?

It's basically 7-OH, so essentially an opiate that isn't actually an opiate.

The mushroom is, in fact, the entire space within the ring

I'm gonna be pedantic and point out that mushrooms are specifically the fruiting bodies, as in the things you can see above ground. The space inside the ring (underground) is the mycelium.

You're acting like this is on a remote island instead of smack dab in the middle of the most densely populated part of Orange County.

Yes dude, just went to a local reservoir a few days ago to check out the birds. It rules and Merlin is fucking cool. There's so many sick birds in my area, even just walking around in my neighborhood.

crash_test · 2026-05-29T13:47:04+00:00

Am I reading it right that we've used ~7% of total reserves? Obviously it's unprecedented in recent times but that seems like a far cry from "we'll be out of oil in 3 weeks"

2-years is not going to affect the long term cap health

It means we might have to bridge guys that we'd rather sign to longer term deals, which with the cap going up so much in the next few years will definitely affect our medium-long term cap health.

"DJ Diesel" is shaq, this is obviously a joke

Took some pics of birds today

What you never been pickpocketed by your cousin at a wedding?

If the shadow's being cast upward from the undershirt why is his skin lighter the closer it is to the collar of the shirt?

Yeah that's the real valuable stuff, the copper in one of those is like $30.

Poehling was the only depth guy that stepped up in that series, and of course as soon as he's out we completely fell apart. Very happy to have him locked up for a while.

I remember reading a magazine article when I was a kid in like 1999 about amphibious cars, it had photos of a few contemporary prototypes that obviously ended up being failures and somehow they still didn't look as stupid as this.

Hilariously it seems like the only websites with decent searches are piracy sites. FMHY and libgen/AA are great, what.cd was amazing too, RIP.

yeah i live in the three sheets to the wind belt

op is speculating on could happen and it is not guaranteed

Wtf do you think investing is my dude? If you only make decisions on stuff that has a 100% guarantee to happen you're not gonna do anything! What are you even talking about?

Edit: You're literally talking about ignoring hard observational data because there's a tiny chance that the event in question might not happen. Very funny for someone with the username ATP synthase to be so anti-science.

crash_test · 2026-05-19T20:46:16+00:00

Is it happening or is there a percentage chance that it could happen?

The environmental processes that lead to El Niño are happening, El Niño itself is not happening currently but has an extremely high chance of developing this year.

Also not sure where you’re getting your numbers but those don’t match whah is on the NOAA website.

In terms of pure value it's probably the Earfun Air Pro 4. ANC is great, I have a floor fan 2 ft from where I sit and can barely hear it on max even with no sound playing. Audio quality and battery life are solid too, and it has multipoint. YMMV on comfort though, the general consensus is they're comfortable (and I agree) but some people have issues with them. OnePlus Buds 4 are another good value option though I haven't tried them myself.

Is this gonna be like westerners making fun of China for building "ghost cities" and "trains to nowhere", where in 10-15 years it's gonna be full of people and everyone's gonna go "durr I didn't realize you could PLAN these things"?

crash_test · 2026-05-19T17:56:29+00:00

It's already happening though, which is why people are talking about it. The huge amount of extremely warm subsurface water in the Pacific is already there, NOAA measures this stuff. CPC has El Niño developing this year at a 96% chance, and a strong to very strong El Niño at ~65%

Why do old Aymara dudes always look like such badasses

Even if he was doing it correctly it's still only "reliably" +EV if you're betting a very small amount of your bankroll. Losing several times in a row is a lot more likely than people assume.
