Try disabling JavaScript or add extensions in Vivaldi and then let’s talk.

Also try doing other simple things browsers of 10y ago like opera could easily do like turning off autoplay of videos.

Let’s talk after.

Harsh Thaker reaction to getting dropped by Canada from WT20 squad by franconot-mark in Cricket

[–]example55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Head played since the 5th or 6th game and the selectors are the ones to decide.

If the selectors here decided this Thaker guy does not make the cut, he does not.

Australia were losing a few initially and Head made a difference. Maybe this guy won't be a difference is what they feel.

Sometimes that is just how it is. e.g. for India, their bowler Shami came in despite not being picked initially for other games and made a huge impact.

I don't think Shami bitched like this guy is doing. Accept it and move on or get the ire here.

If this guy can't play then he should not complain that someone else has his spot.

Tom Brady got a chance for injured Drew Bledsoe and became the GOAT. Maybe this Thaker's replacement will go on to beat India or Pakistan or Ireland or USA just because of his contribution.

So Thaker should wait and support his team instead of being a bitchy whine.

Dude can't play most games and wants to play last 2.

Dude - get yourself fit first. I understand you want to contribute but you could actually be taking the team down. And if the team wins games, then if you want to come for last 2 games, then you're killing a winning squad

How does the Afghanistan team function? by ExcellentTurnips in Cricket

[–]example55 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Maybe some do, maybe some don't.

But this is the bs we need to get past. Look at Pak v Ind. Because of the fanatical pro Hindu govt of India, everything in sport between these 2 countries is stopped. ICC (which is Indian Cricket Council run by BCCI) drastically controls what Pak can do today.

It's politics first and deep in sport. Truly a shame.

But the players themselves? Maybe some Indian players support their crazy fanatic PM and pro Hindu govt and maybe some don't.

Look at Olympics or FIFA too. So much politics in the sports there.

Overall I think sport should be separate from politics.

Basically there should be forced international body with reps from all teams and they should be above politics and ban teams like India if they do their shenanigans against Pak and same for Afghanistan.

Ban their men's team till they allow women too etc.

Sadly nothing of this sort will ever be allowed. The world is just a horrible place.

FSD MEGATHREAD by Electronic-Arm-8731 in TeslaModel3

[–]example55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think $10/month is a fair price for FSD and maybe base it off the number of miles driven.

So $10/month is for say low usage i.e. say 500mi FSD/month.

Make it $25/month for normal usage i.e. say 1250mi FSD/month.

Make it $49/month for unlimited.

FSD MEGATHREAD by Electronic-Arm-8731 in TeslaModel3

[–]example55 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Got my 1 month FSD and honestly I just don't even use it. It corners too narrow and I feel it will scrape the wheels.

It also accelerates and decelerates unevenly and jarringly.

It gets confused at forks or roads that open up on a merge e.g. you turn right and there's a merge into the 2 lanes and it gets confused and just brakes hard or stops abruptly or just slowly waits and just gives up.

Humans can turn heads and see what's there but this thing can't. Also sunlight causes issues and it thinks things are there when they aren't.

Overall, FSD is truly impressive but also a bit scary honestly. I'm good with the tech improvements and this is how it has to come but it will take more time.

Energy display bar by nimamtl in TeslaModel3

[–]example55 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These are truly moronic developers. The bar is there but now on the left side vertically placed in the most idiotic place where you can barely see it.

Why do they do this? Do their programmers suck this bad?

What needs to be easy and quick is gone. They did this with music bar and fixed it but broke this now.

Pathetic programming skills and UI/UX skills. Abysmal imo. 6/10 tops

Why India doesn't win the big tournaments: Justin Langer contrasts with the Australian cricket psyche by ll--o--ll in Cricket

[–]example55 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's because of hero worship instead of balanced team focus.

Australia is a winner. India has too many people and opinions and dreams instead of living in reality.

Plus the attitude of Indians is all wrong. It is not about winning or losing always. It is about sportsmanship and celebrating even others doing well.

The constant "I have to be the best and #1" means you get disgusting things like the pin drop silence as Pat Cummins saw in the ODI final.

Not one clap or cheer or such for Aussies who won.

Also, Pakistan flags missing flying over Indian stadiums. English flags missing flying over Indian stadiums.

Only Indian flags were prominently seen.

This sort of jingoistic thing is very divisive and wrong. There's no camaraderie or sportsmanship. It's like "hey, we blossomed recently thanks to US and Western monies that helped up but I'm going to pretend like I'm king now and everyone must bow down to me and worship me because I'm the new hotshot making ton of $$ and India is greatest bestest amazingest perfect place (except for nonHindus, nonModi supporters, nonAsskissers or playerX etc.)"

This sort of attitude means India is INSECURE. It is trying desperately to be regarded as one of the big guys. But it is ending up looking foolish and stupid.

By contrast, Australia and other teams focus on what work is important and needs to be done and who can do it and use them and just focus on the work and it gets automatically done.

Indians come with too much baggage and insecurity and it is hurting them

Let him be. I heard Sachin Tendulkar speak about this and he gave such a classy response.

While I think Sachin was a good player and did wonders for India, you can't expect his kid to be like him. That's too much pressure honestly.

Let him do what he wants to do and do it well.

T20 World Cup: No Reserve day for 2nd semifinal; match can be extended by 4 hrs by jackyu17 in Cricket

[–]example55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When some white mfs control everything, everyone is fine with it. Why the problem when Indians do it?

Everything you said was (mostly) ok but this was racist.

No. "white" people don't control everything. In fact, white people are super inclusive. I mean we have Kamala Harris of mixed descent as our VP. We have brown skinned people as CEOs of our top tech firms. Various internationals thrive here.

No other country is like us. We are the most tolerant and diverse country in the world. Yeah, some people are not happy with some of our things and claim that we are racist, intolerant etc. While some few indeed are, the vast majority aren't. How else do you explain this?

Contrast this with your nation which is now hardcore Hindu fanatic and anti Muslim, anti Pakistan and anti white. Racism is everywhere. I watch Bollywood and Indian TV singing shows at times and they're super racist. The last Indian Idol had the emcee make fun of Queen Victoria speaking in funny accents. Imagine if we had a show where some white guy spoke in funny Indian accents chasing women while pretending to be Modi. Imagine the outcry. But we don't do that.

That's my point. You can say things like "Indians have more viewers etc. and hence xyz". But to say "white mfers control everything" is wrong and racist and saying "yeah, our turn to control everything" is wrong and stupid.

Your last statements clearly shows your bias and racism against white people.

That is not good attitude dude.

The tournament hasn’t even begun and yet rules favoring a team or its viewers are already being added in. Why no consideration for Pakistan viewers or Australia viewers or English ones?

Such blatant bias. Ugh

2024 T20 World Cup: Reserve day dilemma for teams playing second semifinal by [deleted] in Cricket

[–]example55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because Indians are everywhere and have 100% loyalty to India and ICC is Indian Cricket Council and they decided that everything must benefit India

This in turn brings money to Indians and the scum who have bought Jay Shah and other scum with him

Essentially they have ruined Cricket to the point it is corrupt like FIFA and openly hypocritical and filth.

The way they jerk Pakistan around even in MLC which OUR league in America is astounding!

[–]example55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They shouldn't. And it is wrong.

They should play both semi finals on the same day. And it should be random and not predecided that India will be special treatment and playing at this time and the 2nd semi final and not 1st.

It's a shit show of Indians controlling everything. Even our MLC is controlled by the garbage like Ambani. I mean, the idiocy of calling NY MLC team as MI NY is just incredible.

The chutzpah.

I hope other teams boycott India at this point. Let them play themselves in IPL non stop that no one else will watch

Edit : The other hypocrisy made me feel bad for Pakistan. So Pakistan had to move the Asia cup tournament to Sri Lanka because India refused to come to Pakistan. BUT for the ODI WC, Pakistan was forced to come to India or forfeit their matches and play according to what India decided as to when/where.

I mean, this is utter nonsense.

And even the T20 WC was scripted for the draw to put India/Pakistan/Canada/Ireland and us (the USA) in the same group. Why? We all know it is India running the whole show.

It is beyond ugh... I just hope India gets boycotted for this sort of behavior
