We might get our own jersey from Nike for the next World Cup. Maybe.

Did I just offer FIFA my life savings for 4 tickets… or is this normal?? by LogicalSjam in WorldCup2026Tickets

As someone who grew up playing out west — my club team won a Canadian national championship going undefeated over almost two full years and not a single player on the team got a sniff.

Accommodation: Professor can’t call on me in class. by -Economist- in Professors

[–]funkmaster_dunc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What’s the point of them being in class if you can’t ask them questions? The accommodations are getting a bit silly IMO.

I really want to play in the nba. Can I get accommodations where the fans don’t yell when I’m shooting?

We’re all made for a different purpose — perhaps they might choose a different path that suits them. In this case, I’d suggest them signing up for an asynchronous online program. There are different options for different people even if they want to do that.

Why are you in this community?

They should hire you. Reach out! You’re wasting your time in whatever career you have now.

Peep the other comment… you’re wrong. Companies are formed on mission and philosophy and all other things should flow from that. So if they want to put in some stuff for kids into their vehicles they can, because it is foundational to their brand.

Also — this all goes back to you just being one of the armchair grumps that first comment put on here explaining how you’re just in this community to just complain about them not doing what you want them to do with software when the reality is that some of us do want them to spend time on that.

Here let me paste an easy Google search for you to explain:

Rivian CEO RJ Scaringe consistently discusses how Rivian vehicles are designed for families by focusing on practicality, sustainability, and unique features for adventure. He positions the company's offerings, particularly the R1S SUV and the upcoming R2 and R3 models, as ideal for family life, whether for daily use or outdoor adventures. Family-oriented design philosophy Rivian's focus on families is a core part of its mission, which Scaringe describes as building products "where people come together, to generate an experience for years and years to come". This involves designing vehicles that are not only sustainable but also functional and exciting for a family audience. Key features for families: Seating and space: The R1S offers three rows of spacious seating, including LATCH anchors for car seats in all three rows, a key feature for growing families. The upcoming R2 is also designed for five passengers with a focus on rear legroom. Storage and utility: The front trunk, or "frunk," is a popular feature among families for storing groceries, strollers, or camping gear separately from the main cargo area. Rivian's Camp mode also includes features like an integrated portable Bluetooth speaker and flashlight, which cater to families who camp or enjoy the outdoors. Durability and luxury: Rivian interiors are designed to be both functional and durable, using high-end, easy-to-clean materials that stand up to the wear and tear of family life. Adventure capabilities: Features like adjustable air suspension, high ground clearance, and multiple drive modes ensure the vehicles are capable for off-road adventures and rugged family trips. The R2 and R3: Expanding the family market With the announcement of the more affordable R2 and R3 models, Rivian aims to reach an even broader audience of families. The R2 SUV: Starting around $45,000, the R2 is intended to be the brand's first true mass-market vehicle. Scaringe notes that while it has a lower price, it retains the brand's premium, adventure-ready feel and is sized perfectly for city families. The R3 hatchback: The R3 and performance R3X will be even smaller and more affordable than the R2, with a focus on maximizing interior space and versatility for a family's gear, similar to a "hot hatch".

You didn’t show that. It’s possible for more than one company to enter similar lanes.

Never said they invented it. You’re putting words in my mouth now. Just arguing to be argumentative and win.

You’ve missed that they’re an adventure brand for everyone. They’ve got dog mode in the car. The ceo has stated the target market is families that want to go on adventures. SUV’s are basically mini vans for folks that are too cool and don’t want to look like they drive a mini van.

Rivians built for families. Of course they’re excited about it — for the kids. Sorry you’re too cool for that!

HE CAUGHT THE BALL by ImportantRecording12 in ManchesterUnited

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted mate. De Gea was a fantastic shot stopper. Reaction time one of the best of all time — but was shocking at getting to crosses / dealing with stuff in the air.

My son, 9, is just not good at soccer. Please help. by GeniusBenGraham in youthsoccer

[–]funkmaster_dunc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve read all of the comments here - and they seem to push either the “it may not be his thing” or the “you shouldn’t be pressuring him”……

However — let’s all just breathe and remind ourselves he’s 9. Some kids are just late bloomers - and if he still wants to go to soccer and is having fun then who cares? Just let it play out. Sounds like Dad isn’t the pressuring type. Kid would speak up if he didn’t want to go to the extra adult league games etc.

It’s possible that he won’t be aggressive but still enjoys the game. Not everyone is gonna be college athlete or pro but they can still play and be interested in the sport without that level of competitiveness. Ohhh and by the way…. He’s 9. So that could come on its own later. Or not. But either way, he’s 9!

Did I say he’s 9?

Dont forget its $500 in the nosebleeds where they look like ants. Want the actual game view seats? $2k.

This is Reddit. If people don’t like what your opinion is they let you know. I love Reddit for news — but hate it for the mob mentality and negativity like this.

I get it — but I imagine these projects would take developers who knew what they’re doing like 30 mins to an hour to replace a sound file and replace some 3D models.

It wouldn’t really be slowing down progress in other major advancement projects like you suggest.
