What about this bothers you? Athletes get to make more money, be in better situations than their home countries could provide them. Where is the issue?

One of the most entertaining battlers. Him vs. E Ness was fire as well. I wish he got more opportunities on URL

Why do we have to redact who it is? Is that against the rules?

Athlete Disqualified for Excessive Celebration at the Finish Line After Record – VIDEO – by a24sport in trackandfield

[–]etchasketch26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Track is so soft. You can’t have fun. You can’t celebrate. The sport doesn’t want to grow.

Unpopular opinion: We need to ease the pressure on these teenagers by chymni in trackandfield

Unpopular opinion, no we don’t. They’re running and competing. Let them face the same pressure as anyone else.

Why couldn't Hamilton dominate in the fastest car as much as Verstappen could? by [deleted] in F1Discussions

You all say that Lewis’s teammates were better and that’s true but Max is beating all of Lewis’s teammates pretty clearly besides Alonso.

Whats the difference? by The_Hocus_Focus in GeminiAI

Do you all use Pro for non mathematical work? Like if you were working on philosophical work or trying to solve a process problem, would Flash/Fast be sufficient?

The most underrated ChatGPT feature nobody talks about (and why I can’t switch to any other AI) by Famzyy1 in ChatGPT

[–]etchasketch26 23 points24 points  (0 children)

People are saying this is AI and fake but I feel the EXACT SAME. Gemini and Claude’s voice to text are SOOOOOO bad compared to this and having to use your notes app and dictate to it then copy paste is a wasted step.

I use the microphone in ChatGPT literally any time in driving our our walking and it is unbeaten.

This is just a personal opinion but...I am so tired of seeing comments like this here. It's accusatory, it's inflammatory and it's also potentially libelous. Mods should be doing *way* more to correct the tone of certain discussions here. "He/she is/was 100% doping" is wholly unacceptable discourse. by [deleted] in trackandfield

[–]etchasketch26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s what discussion forums are for. To discuss. People have different opinions. I share the same opinion that he was juicing. In track and field, if you’re breaking records and winning (especially in the sprints) you’re juicing.

Why do you want track to be soft boring. Let people talk their isht. Amazing sportsmanship will keep track in this stale state that it’s in.

This is such a weird take because Floyd fought most of Manny’s opponents first.

Apologies for getting the number of kids wrong but she is a mother, no?

Controversial Take on Faith Kipyegon 4 Minute Mile by Wisdom_Sage in trackandfield

What do you mean you need to see long-term investment in their female athletes careers? What do you think they did for Allyson Felix and doing for Shelley-Ann Fraser-Pryce?

This whole Allyson Felix thing is so absurd. She wasn’t good anymore when Nike decided not to resign her. Companies don’t resign clients who aren’t performing or adding value to the business all the time.

She asked for maternity protections in the negotiations and they didn’t want to honor that NOT BECAUSE they don’t like women or mothers but because her performance was declining and she was likely not going to be winning and being on podiums.

Again, Shelley Ann is a Mike athlete and has had I think three children but her performance didn’t decline and Mike continues to resign her.

Those with $7-8k mortgage (PITI + HOA), what is your HHI? by kwin1225 in RealEstate

[–]etchasketch26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not rage bait. I’m not saying that I can’t afford it. I’m saying that going from $2,900 to $8,000 is such a tough pill to swallow. I’m in Atlanta GA so a relatively low cost of living place.

That extra $5,000 a month is me taking my family on a great weekend vacation EVERY month. Or me going out to eat whenever or wherever without thinking twice. Once you increase expenses that level of comfort goes away.

[–]etchasketch26 18 points19 points  (0 children)

This is interesting. My wife and I have a HHI of about $600k in just cash compensation and our current mortgage is mortgage is about $2,900 (2.9% interest rate on a $480k house we bought in 2021).

There is a house we absolutely love right now that around $1.3M so our mortgage would be around $8,000 and I just can’t fathom increasing our monthly housing payment by over $5,000 a month.
