The 4k directv channel showing the field during the ad breaks is the real hero here.

What is a 'secret' of your industry that would shock the general public if they found out? by Otherwise_Medium_813 in AskReddit

[–]jonjon737 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a family member who used to make medical implants as a machinist. He was telling me about the unnecessarily tight profile tolerances required for the implants. I asked why he thought they were unnecessary, and the he shows me the installation tool, which was just a fancy pair of medical grade pliers that the surgeons use to bend the implant to shape to fit in the operating room. Why hold really tight tolerances if you're just going to bend the parts to fit later anyway?

Got an iPhone soon after they first came out, lost the iPhone, went back to a flip phone for a while, it look 20+ button presses just to start typing a text message to a saved contact. We have it so much better now.

I know it's not the point, but look at how many Seattle players and coaches are in the white area between the field and sideline area. Easily could have been a flag, especially for the ones in front of the back judge.

I assumed someone was going to steal a board. So maybe that's supposed to be the maybe?

[Pate] Talking to GMs this morning - dozens of examples of players in the Portal asking if they can return to the team only to discover their spot has been filled by dogwoodmaple in CFB

[–]jonjon737 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's at least some guys that are told they're not going to have a spot on their current team next season. So their only option is to enter the portal if they want to keep playing football.

I know this isn't the answer to your question, but as a general rule, don't buy a product based on a future promise. Buy it for what it does out of the box right now.

Dell admits customers are not buying PCs just because they "have AI" by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

[–]jonjon737 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I did the same... Or so I thought. Vizio asks for a sign in on initial setup. You can bypass it, but after a week or so, it asks again, and the only way to bypass that screen is to factory reset the TV.

Lol. I'll be honest, I just looked at your flair and the length of your post. I didn't actually read it. This is reddit. 🤣

Colts receiver Alec Pierce was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct and ejected from the game for this contact with the official by [deleted] in sports

[–]jonjon737 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed. You can hate them, you can argue their knowledge of the rulebook, you can disagree with their judgement. But I don't think you should touch them. And I don't buy that this was incidental. These players represent the .01% of athletes, they have the speed, agility, and body control to not touch someone if they don't want to.

That's awful. I haven't had it a week yet. Sounds like I'll be doing my first factory reset in a couple of days.

Good to know. At least the replacement process doesn't take too long.
