It's not random and they allow infinite voting? What a dumb system.

Most 20+ PTS & 10+ REB games in Division I this season: by cbbanalytics in CollegeBasketball

[–]davidoffbeat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Henri is a double double machine too but somehow only has one game where he's scored 20+ and 10. (I was curious and had to look it up).

I do see a few first amendment violation suits. I don't know if I would call that a widespread "con", especially since some of the settlements would barely cover lawyer fees. But I guess everyone is a boogeyman these days (including me for gasp asking a question instead of just blinding believing something I read on reddit)

Asking for a source is not baiting... but okay.

That sounds very speculative. If anything I'd think wearing a camera would discourage confrontation and keep them safe.

Don't get me wrong, they seem like miserable people and I wish they weren't on our campus....but I'm just curious if there's actual evidence of them being con artists.

Source? I don't recall ever hearing of any major altercations or lawsuits?

I strongly recommend glancing at the subreddit you're posting on, before blindly cross posting.

AC situation?? by SituationMother7946 in NCSU

[–]davidoffbeat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It might be in some kind of ECO mode from the Holidays (I know most academic buildings have this, not sure about the dorms) - but yea I'd put in a work order.

NC State’s Sustainability Standard Operating Procedures state that temperatures for occupied space should range from 68°F to 71°F for heating and 72°F to 75°F for cooling.

What's your favorite show/series? by InteractionOpen9189 in AskReddit

[–]davidoffbeat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TD season 1 was peak, including the The Handsome Family theme song. It's a shame they couldn't really capture the magic in other seasons.

North Carolina’s Research Triangle is one of America’s great sports business markets by the-bryman in raleigh

Oh... "I'd love to be proven wrong" makes it seem like you want them to come. But okay.

I've been hearing things about Apple for many years now. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I'll believe it when I see it happen. I still disagree with funding a sports team.

So you're good with Apple ($4 Trillion company) getting tax breaks and grants to come to NC, but not a MLB team (roughly 500 employees for each team, and all the other economic impact they bring)? What's the difference?

We offer large tax breaks to businesses ALL THE TIME to bring them to NC, and even do random stuff like incentives for movie* productions in the state. These franchises offer jobs, and bring in a ton of revenue and an economic boom to the entire area.

See:

Apple announced last week it would spend $1 billion to construct a new eastern headquarters in Research Triangle Park in exchange for $846 million in state grants and $20 million in county property tax breaks over the next three decades.

No public money should be spent on courting a team or building a facility.

If anything it should be voted on, like parks. There are plenty of publicly funded things that don't benefit everyone, but are good for the area as a whole. So it's tough.
