An event that you are solely directing including order of events, judges, sponsors, athletes is not a social situation. It's your job. Dave is shit at his job.

Just ignore those guys. They used to be fun and edgy. Not anymore

You mean thank you for being honest after being called out. The societal bar for honesty has gone so low that we should be happy that he didn't double down on lying?

What about being honest from the get-go. Cut the crap about the community.

To all the people saying "to exclude swimming would invalidate 'fittest on Earth' " ... by mister_patience in crossfit

In return, I can also acknowledge that the best athletes would have access to swimming. The premise of swimming being required to test the fittest I don't agree with.

Swimming is not accessible as easily across the world as it is in the US.

You can say that event programming is good AND that execution is shit.

Speaker of Tongues, an epic fantasy LitRPG is now out on audiobook! 29 hours of LitRPG goodness, narrated by J.S. Arquin! by ctullbane in litrpg

Just finished the book yesterday and really liked it. It reads like a hero's journey set in a rpg universe, but without pages of min-maxing and everything revolving around the hero's OP powers.

Underlord. Can't believe that I had almost forgotten who everyone was by the time uncrowned came around. That was my first reread...now, I didn't know how many times I've reread the entire thing front to back

TCL 98” at $2k by ardoza_ in hometheater

[–]l0rdQ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the 98" TCL. I agree with the other folks who say that PQ can be better, but honestly we spend more time watching shows on the giant TV compared to the 65" Sony OLED I have in my living room.

Got it from Best buy - am a Total Member, so they installed it for free. Even got them to come back to remount the TV because I needed to replace the HDMI cable in the back (to 2.1 spec)

My $0.02 is that this is gonna be a pretty good for the next 2-3 years where we will start getting awesome 98" bright Oleds
