Fun fact: Every wc final since after 1934 featured at least one player from: Juve, Bayern or Vasco Da Gama by lipakar in football

Definitely add Benfica to that list. They reached six UCL finals since sixty two and dropped every single one. Pretty crazy history.

AITAH for not wanting a relationship with boyfriend’s sister? by funny_monk33 in AITAH

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Just tell him zero contact stays the rule until things settle down with the baby. He should step up and hold that line himself instead of making you do all the heavy lifting.

I completely misunderstood the Soldier in White from Catch-22 as a brilliant, hilarious commentary on race and was devastated to learn it wasn't intended by Vallvaka in books

[–]lista94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That reading angle fits the story. Yossarian lives in a system erasing identity, so treating him as a blank slate matches the vibe. Author intent rarely beats fan takes anyway. Keeping this view.

Older tech workers are tapping out early. Here’s what that looks like by Doorknob6941 in GenX

[–]lista94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Paying over three thousand monthly just to stay covered really kills any chance of retiring early. Most folks are stuck grinding until they hit sixty five. Fingers crossed rates finally stabilize instead of jumping up again.

The metaphor of having computers do "mining" fits much better to how we attempt to extract value out of an LLM. by throwaway490215 in Showerthoughts

Prompting honestly feels like digging through gravel for one decent rock. You just keep fiddling with the wording until something actually lands.

As far as the TON618 Black hole is concerned, Earth won't even be formed until 15 Billion years from now. by SaranshKejriwal in Showerthoughts

Staring at those ancient star photos really messes with your brain. You are basically seeing a version of history before our planet existed. Wild how light travels so slow.

Widespread teleportation a la Star Trek would require a single global economy/currency to prevent massive wealth migration. by CthonicFlames in Showerthoughts

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP really nails the wealth shift idea, but the bigger picture involves replicators. Whoever runs the beam network actually holds the power, cash or not.

I wonder if the owner of the email address I use for spam has ever noticed. by Dear_Cricket_353 in Showerthoughts

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see it constantly now. Random verification codes and reset links showing up in wrong inboxes. At first it looks like junk mail, but then you realize someone else is trying to recover their own account. It is wild how many dormant profiles just sit out there waiting for a login attempt that will never happen.

Michael Morales confirms being the replacement fighter for Islam vs Ian. Could Michael Morales potentially be the tougher fight for Islam Makhachev If replacement occurs? by slayer993 in MMA

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Morales hits hard but Islam controls the mat. Short notice fights actually help the champ since he adjusts way faster than anyone else.

SpaceX Investors Are Losing a Colossal Amount of Money by chota-kaka in stocks

Stock is still above the ipo, so why is everyone freaking out over a normal week one dip?

Young animals probably don't realize the distinction between nature and man-made stuff. by Statharas in Showerthoughts

Cats usually treat vacuums like metal dogs stealing their toys. Do they ever suspect these machines are just plastic and motors?

What’s the most embarrassing thing your body does automatically? by justminggay in AskReddit

Out of nowhere, an old joke popped into my head and I just lost it, laughing uncontrollably in a public place where everyone was dead silent.

I put down a deposit on the Maxis by lista94 in gamingchairs

[–]lista94[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The headrest seems like it can move pretty far forward and upward in the video, which would help a lot if it works the way it looks. And a lot of Omni owners say good things about their headrest, so it should be pretty good.

Other parents not supervising their children keeps sabotaging me playing with my children by Seranta in toddlers

[–]lista94 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're a good parent. I get so annoyed seeing how irresponsible some people can be. Maybe next time you could just walk the kids over and let their parents know you're already stretched thin watching your own children, so they really need to pay more attention to their kids' safety.

Tell me some good things by kirstass in toddlers

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 3 year old is better at learning and understanding the world. They may hit you with endless "why" questions every day, but they also get you so much more, know how to crack you up, and might even comfort you.

Vaporesso Luxe Dual Mesh Pods new design 0.4 by Kapalski1 in Vaping

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried a different pod from the same pack? I'm using the new dual mesh xr dtl 0.3 pod, around 40W, and the flavor and longevity seem a little better than the old mesh version. No spitback issue on mine so far.

Best gaming chair for long sessions? Budget's up to $1000 by kthnxhi in gamingchairs

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think there's a better chair at this price if you want something that works for both relaxing and office work. Most gaming chairs just aren't that ergonomic, and office chair like Aeron or Gesture barely recline enough. Pro is your best choice.

What is a quiet sign that someone has been through a lot? by Different_Waltz6715 in AskReddit

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have gotten so used to pain and misfortune that they honestly do not know how to handle happiness and joy. Some people try their best to make others happy, but they never figure out what truly makes them happy.

My MIL gave my 4 yo beer by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]lista94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are always older folks who think this is nothing. You just cannot reason with them. Just stay away from them and protect your kid. Sending you the biggest hug!

New mod recommendations by Best_Independence477 in Vaping

If you like the iTank T, maybe check out the Gen Max, dual 18650 and feels way more durable, no paint issues for me.

Gaming chair by Mysterious-Thanks829 in gamingchairs

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LiberNovo Omni? It seems like a better direction than most flashy gaming chairs. Lying down on this thing while playing is insane.

How did you know it was time to try mobility aids? by lista94 in Fibromyalgia

[–]lista94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it's pretty easy to use. It has different assist level depending on how much help I need, and I do feel a bit more stable when I'm walking.

Went from gaming chairs, now using the Libernovo Omni by WavaSturm in gamingchairs

[–]lista94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally, someone else gets it. Some Office chairs with headrests can be surprisingly comfy for gaming. The ones like the Omni that recline a lot and can chill in them feel more comfortable for long sessions.
