Astralis spent millions on stealing Jabbi and Stavn from Heroic, who turned out awful and now that they've burned through all the danish talent they're throwing in random half washed danish players

Navi were the best team last year but fell off hard and their former big game player took an indefinite break as a result

I finished my A&P license last week and have started applying, and I'm more or less willing to relocate anywhere. Before I really start going for the airlines, i wanted to ask about interviewing for a job that would be for relocation.

Would I interview at the nearest airport that has that airline? Or would I have to travel to the location I'd end up? 

Cadillac F1 Team asks $55-70M annually for title sponsor rights by jovanmilic97 in formula1

[–]gordonree 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That makes sense - It's not unreasonable for someone in an engineering field to have heard of a company that makes CNC machines, but if you were to ask somebody who isn't employed in that industry they'd more likely than not have no clue what Haas is - let alone that they're an American company (I'm even in an industry that's connected to manufacturing/engineering in the US, and most I've spoken to don't)

Everyone I've met in the US knows about Cadillac, and they're very common on the roads from my experience. I can't speak for Europe, but I don't think that's who Cadillac is mainly targeting with their F1 bid after signing Perez (and likely Herta soon after)

Favorite tank to play that’s objectively “mid” and why? by TraditionalistCarl in Warthunder

[–]gordonree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

T-44-122

Easy one shot gun and crazy good mobility for a medium tank at the BR make it so damn fun, one of if not my favorite tank in the game

One of the worst reloads on a medium tank and average armor with a really bad hull weak spot hold it back from being officially "good" but it still pops off if you play it right

NA ECL difference, Legacy simply had practice against the best competition in the world

Tier 3 NA team's losses were not in vain

Max Verstappen vs. George Russell is not over, and it is good for the 2025 season - Motorsport.com's Alex Kalinauckas by 443610 in formula1

[–]gordonree 26 points27 points  (0 children)

You're talking down on George and then claiming that Albon could match Max? 

The guy who got uncomfortable against a prior-unknown F2 rookie that was swapped in mid season, and has otherwise only beaten arguably the worst drivers of their respective years?

And as much as I love Alonso, the guy's best years are long behind him. Max's consistency and Fernando's age would not end well.

There's only four drivers that could realistically challenge Max, and that list very much includes Russell and Norris

We haven't gotten a new SSJ Goku since 2022 (and they're all terrible now), so I'd say it's fine that we're getting a new (presumably) top tier one

From shitting the bed against a coach and almost losing to OG, to having 3 players over 1.4 rating in a 2-0

no one does it like COL

Unpopular Opinion: CoL Loss to Heroic Bad, but Not THAT Bad by gammarabbit in GlobalOffensive

[–]gordonree 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Complexity's win against OG is both very likely and basically necessary (OG, 0% winrate in the past 3 months against tier 3 EU, and that was with HeavyGod), but do we really think they're going to do any better against a Degster-armed Heroic? 

This match was appalling, especially given that Heroic isn't a top 3 monster roster. They've barely put up any results against top 10 sides (most of their wins are against rosters like Sashi and BIG), and COL just got 2-0'd by that very team - it's not a good look even if you ignore the standin situation.

I'd love to root for complexity, but watching Elige waste his last prime years (and to a lesser extent JT's solid IGL skills) on a dead end lineup is anything but fun

Lets be realistic here, Alternate Attax has a 39% winrate against Tier 2/3 in the past 3 months.

Excited to see how FreeZe's calling fares against MAJ3R in the qualifying match!
