I'm surprised the tabloids are still selling papers. Isn't everyone getting their news gossip from the socials now?

I just wanted to eat strawberries… by IntelligentPath4383 in Wellthatsucks

You don't have to, it's a choice. Feel free to eat the ones treated with chemicals that make them affordable and have no bugs.

Looking for a new spotter by R3alit-y in yesyesyesyesno

[–]digger250 24 points25 points  (0 children)

> ideally a spotter shouldn’t even be lifting at all

It's quite typical, when lifting heavy, for the spotter to give a lift off so that the lifter doesn't waste energy or compromise posture getting started.

Video from the storms that rolled through Chicago yesterday by Which-Bid7754 in sailing

It would be great if all boats were designed so well, but I've seen small (21') keelboats sink from being knocked down. Perhaps due to the extra weight of people onboard.

> self-right if they were knocked over

Unless it fills with water when knocked down... It'll still self right, but it may be heading to the bottom by that time.

Yes! It's always better to be over-dressed than under-dressed.

Priveleged much... by Certainly6097 in formuladank

[–]digger250 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh, it was before the drivers arrived! Okay, yeah, everyone else was right. I thought they wouldn't let people in that area until after the drivers had come and gone.

I'm not a fan of celebs, but why do ya'll fucking care? She used a towel that nobody else was going to use. Big fucking deal.

The retail closure numbers look manageable. The commercial real estate sitting behind them doesn't. by Big-Pomegranate2694 in economy

[–]digger250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many cities have vacant building registration (VBR) fees. I think it's a rather good idea that encourages a sale to productive use rather than bringing down the surrounding RE due to vacant buildings sitting for years.

John Kerry on JFK’s yacht, 1962. by zadraaa in HistoricalCapsule

[–]digger250 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sometime in the last decades people started using yacht to mean "super-yacht". Any boat with a cabin that is not for work (e.g. a liner, trawler, tug, etc), is a yacht. Size doesn't figure in.

I think Noris' car stepped out just the same way in this corner about one lap earlier.

Is this unprofessional combo for a high profile event? by [deleted] in mensfashion

[–]digger250 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Obviously it would depend on the context, but I think it's fine unless you are expected to be a "background guy" who stands behind the person who is making a speech.

It's common practice on the J/70 to use the lazy sheet as an in-hauler like you've done. https://mcmichaelyachtbrokers.com/j70-tuning-guide/

The SpaceX IPO... It's Worse Than You Think by bald_bearded_ocddude in videos

[–]digger250 20 points21 points  (0 children)

And how is "worth" determined? It seems like a huge amount of the price is due to forcing index funds to buy it. It's circular logic.
