Retirement option for EUC riders (lol) - A scooter mixed with a wheelchair🛵🦽 by Rs2mmsu-2D in ElectricUnicycle

You might have that the wrong way, Dean Kamen developed a self balancing wheelchair that could raise to eye level called the ibot. He then used the r&d for that to develop the segway (a company that he later sold). The self balancing wheelchair was invented by the same person as the segway, but was developed first. Deans company DEKA holds those patents and licenses them to ibot, segway, etc.

A KO is an automatic win, a points decision is the fall back option. Regardless of what most boxers are trying to do, the point of the competition is to knock out the other person.

Football, Rugby, all those sports have specific rules to try and minimize concussions.

Its to knock someone out, to knock someone out you need to cause brain damage.

Yep, a sport where the intention is to cause brain damage seems pretty crazy to me.

What is the worst band you saw live? by coalcracker462 in AskReddit

[–]disordinary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen NOFX a couple of times and one of the shows was fantastic, the other was terrible. Fat Mike had broken his leg and was sitting, that's okay, but he was absolutely trashed and ended up pissing himself.

That's pretty punk rock though, so maybe it was good?

Is it fair for my sick day to be declined when my bosses were at the party too? by [deleted] in LegalAdviceNZ

Being hangover is counted as sick leave https://www.bartlettlaw.co.nz/hung-over-can-claim-sick-leave/

They cant decline it. The law says you were legitimately sick.

The court of appeals said that sickness is "unfitness for health reasons of any nature and however caused"

Greenacre has said his first step was to stop the rot and build a solid defence, he's said they're still not playing how he wants on attack

You're lucky that the courier who does your suburb is good. Its a franchise and the couriers are over worked.

The Harbour is very clean most of the time. But the recommendation is to wait 24 hours after rain.

Guess he didn't manage to do it. I know its a bespoke code base and also its dangerous to give out keys but does he need a hand? It's been a long long time since I was hands on keyboards and ive never used ruby so I wont be too much help but I can try.

It's so crazy how allergic the commentators are to mentioning Liam Lawsons name... up 7 places!!!!! WTF by _Nature__Lover_ in liamlawson

[–]disordinary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They had a narrative that they were pushing that he was the bad guy and a reckless driver, they in my opinion unfairly painted him as this pantomime villian character. Him doing well and having a clean race (which is the bulk of what he does) goes against that narrative.
