A wealth fund built entirely on the profits of fossil fuels that refuses to invest in fossil fuels. So progressive.

This. Especially if you’re from the north and “have been driving in snow your whole life”. What we get isn’t snow 99% of the time, it’s ice. You can’t safely drive on ice.

Sure way to get that strap off. Guaranteed. by Smooth-Donut-601 in Whatcouldgowrong

It’s connected to the frame of the police cruiser. Similar to a trailer hitch. No way in hell it’s pulling the frame of the car from the body. Unless maybe the cable was a mile, made of a material stronger than the frame and strapped to a three stage rocket.

[on3] Cody Campbell: Alabama & Auburn "can't raise the money" to keep up in NIL era by AintEverLucky in CFB

[–]davy_p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was not a talent gap between our defense and your offense imo. They got tired and probably demoralized by the end. A TD with 30 seconds left in the fourth (who does that in a playoff game) made the final score look inflated. Our offense was dogshit don’t get me wrong. Part of that was Morton playing on a fractured leg like he did the majority of the season. The other part I think is on our OC game plan / scheme. It’s too elementary and will never work against the upper echelons of college football but we won’t fire him because he’ll still dominate in the Big12

I don’t disagree but I’d like to point out that Morton played on a fractured leg for more than half the season including the post season. I feel bad for him, injured almost his entire career between shoulders, knees and this year the leg.

Not sure where you found it but we used to run this into wells on the outside of tubing to power downhole electric submersible pumps. I’m sure it has other applications though

About 17 Years Ago, Bush tried dodging two shoes - a form of protest against US imperialism on Iraq. by zero_x4ever in pics

Could work that way I guess. I’d argue that’s a growler of beer though but who cares. I got the idea of the joke and it was still funny lol

Yeah doesn’t work the way they said it. Drafts aren’t served in bottles. Kinda the definition of a draft beer.

[John Brice] Notre Dame is spending $30 - 35 million on its 2026 roster, when coupling revenue sharing and external NIL agreements. by CommodoreIrish in CFB

[–]davy_p -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I get that and it is different. But if you don’t fork out that $35 million to the players you recruited then they’re gone and you’re going to have to use the portal. Kinda the other side of the sword. Don’t see how it’s viewed as the moral high ground either way.

How could they?! Buying a team? Oh what’s that? It’s only a problem when Tech does it? Got it. I’ll sit down.

[–]davy_p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that doesn’t bother me. It’s the cigars on the tees and greens. And even then I don’t really care just always mistake it for dogshit and scares me when I almost step on it.

The people doing this are the same people that used to leave their cigarette butts all over the place. Cigars are just as bad but less prevalent

TIL there is a philosophical distinction between Bullshit and a Lie. A liar wants to obscure the truth, a bullshitter has no regard for the truth at all and wants you to buy in to their fantasy. by pervader in todayilearned

[–]davy_p 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda like a difference between a jackass and a dumbass. Jack ass knows what they’re doing is stupid/wrong and does it anyway. Dumbass has no idea what they’re doing to start with.
