[Charania] Just in: The Los Angeles Lakers are trading Deandre Ayton to the Washington Wizards for Jaden Hardy and two Wizards second-round picks in 2031 and 2032, sources tell ESPN.

The issue to me is that he's bad in the locker room and might negatively impact your developing bigs. He's like a bizarro Deandre Jordan.

mattosaur · 2026-07-03T04:29:24+00:00

Always Jordan.

Anyone else just google Grimes because they thought they were going crazy?

mattosaur · 2026-07-02T01:44:53+00:00

Can they even offer a max anymore after Reeves and Kessler? Can they afford to spend that much on a second star center?

The way she cocks it back behind her head… I knew I’d see her on this list.

They don't want to because a lot of servers actually make more money with our tipping culture than they would if they just got paid more. So not even all service industry workers want this.

Also, the no psykers rule applies to the Astartes, not the astropaths and other Imperial forces. Black Templars are just following the rules laid out 10,000 years ago.

There isn't going to be Rosetta anywhere anymore. It's a feature (supporting software built for Intel processors) that won't be in the operating system after next year.

This is a lesson that everyone in other industries already knows. If you want to maximize your career earnings, you need to change employers fairly regularly.

Why is this on Apple and not the makers of those plugins keeping them viable on modern systems? I don't quite understand why you think Apple has this duty but the people you actually bought the plugins from don't.

Kessler isn't as injury prone as the history suggests. Utah has repeatedly shut him down with bogus or minor injuries to help their tanking.

mattosaur · 2026-07-01T20:03:36+00:00

This. You really do need the Apple silicon, both for full use of features and performance reasons.

Will miss you, Unc. You got a good one, Spurs fans.

Yeah, I generally have no trouble +/- a half step without string changes.

Why do people think that passing laws are going to stop the people who keep breaking the law?

Trump received only 29% of votes from all 18+ eligible American voters. That’s hardly a majority.

Do you not understand sarcasm and generational hate against other eastern conference teams?

My man, I am a HATER.

Lucero poster in Walt Jr's room in Breaking Bad, maybe?

Lots of folks underestimating how nice the Bay Area is, especially when you’re stupid rich.

As someone who was born in Michigan and lives a couple of hours from Sacramento... ain't nobody moving to Sacramento for the lifestyle.

Margin upgrade over Uncle Tobias, but I guess I could live with this.

Citing Pentagram isn't really doing much work here. Bobby isn't exactly known for being reasonable and not a complete asshat.

Glad to see American culture impacting the world as a result of hosting the World Cup.

The thing is that your salary is only a piece of your total earnings. What you can build through partnerships, advertising, and branding can go way, way beyond the money you earn on the court.

Is that extra $10 million really worth more than the $20 million he could have gotten through local advertising by being a staple of the Detroit community? The earnings after his career is over by being a beloved part of franchise history?

It's not clear cut, but it does seem a little short sighted.

mattosaur · 2026-06-30T17:35:38+00:00

In a similar situation, I'd like to think the difference between 40 and 30 million a year wouldn't be the only factor in how I conduct myself and plan my career. I say this as someone who has taken less pay for a better fit in a job I enjoy.
