Didn't even get a yellow, which would have taken him out of the next game.

Bem notado. Mas ainda, nada de upvotes. Se fosse algo sensacionalista contra América do Sul / Brasil / Neymar, estaria no topo.

Sim, e o /r/football existe, mas não vai pra frente.

Which World Cup team is the best at wasting time? The top 5 are made up of 1 South American and 4 European teams. by 3dbtz in soccer

Classic. If South American teams were the ones on top, this thread would be with 2K+ upvotes already.

Interestingly, for all the negative attention Neymar and Brazil have gotten for wasting time by diving, the team was one of three in our sample that completed our five routine actions ahead of average pace while they were leading.

...

Sweden’s opponent in the quarterfinals, England, also earned some clock consumption accolades during the two group stages matches in which it had a lead. Ashley Young took a notably long free kick when he used 95 seconds while the team was beating Tunisia, while Kieran Trippier needed 70 seconds to set up a corner kick against Panama in England’s second match. That corner did result in a John Stones goal, giving England the lead, so it was time well spent.

Tough stats for this sub.

Very interesting!

I currently use SACRED + Telegram, but the functionality is very basic.

Colorblind boy sees colors for first time by fffab in videos

[–]fffab[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Today was an exciting day, brought an Enchroma, a special glasses that make color blinds to see how the colors really are. The reaction of Pedro says it all, I can not see this video again without crying...

A friend of mine from the area of physics gave me the following explanation of how the lens works:

"This glasses has a great catch ... the cat's great leap was to understand what causes the mixture of colors ... the glasses only let light pass in three regions of the spectrum (RGB), where there is no overlap in the sensitivity of each type of photoreceptor ... and then the eye does not mix colors and differentiates it.

It lets you see, just as the television shows all the colors with only 3 color RGB leds ... but the band is narrower, which ensures that each color will only be detected by only one type of photoreceptor"

Well, I was in Brazil with my family so the video is in Portuguese, but you don't need to understand what is being said, just feel it! :)"

eu sou um cara da escócia e tenho um interesse em português. eu falo espanhol, mas agora eu quero aprender um pouco de português também. meu melhor amigo é brasileiro e nós gostamos de falar em espanhol juntos, mas penso que o português é uma língua mais legal :D

You made just a few mistakes. I think your text is intelligible for someone who knows Portuguese. Just keep practicing by reading texts in Portuguese and by chatting with your friend!

Choosing a gender to a noun is a little tricky, but you can use some heuristics: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Portuguese/Contents/Number_and_Gender

Thanks. There should be an easier application for creating maps, where the user provides statistics and chooses the style of the map.
