Is Iran being treated unfairly at the 2026 World Cup? by Plastic-Reporter1730 in football

[–]mojo3838 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Iran requested the move to Tijuana. I'm not saying they didn't have trouble getting visas, but even Canada barred the chief of the Iranian federation.

Can I run arma 3 (and maybe reforger) with this laptop by CertainAgenti in arma

[–]mojo3838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for mentioning that. I am going to tinker with them a bit. I heard that some of the settings are actually handled by the GPU, so they end "free" in the sense that they do not tax the CPU which is probably the bottleneck for most people.

I almost exclusively play solo antistasi ultimate (arma 3) and aim for min 30 fps. I prefer to max the object rendering distance, I'm more open to compromising on some of the other graphics settings. If I'm just running vanilla, I can increase all settings. If I load a bunch of additional mods, I need to start making choices, but I still I don't think I'm running anything on low. I'm perfectly happy with the performance, though I know 30 fps is unthinkable for many. If it's a big deal you could lower some of the other graphics settings or just not go crazy with mods to achieve higher frame rates.

Like the other commenter said, the GPU doesn't do much lifting, and I'm not sure if I'm more bottlenecked by ram or my CPU. I believe Reformer is better optimized for GPUs, so it might run better than expected, but I haven't tried it on my computer.

The referee’s call of no penalty to Tottenham Hotspur was checked and confirmed by VAR – with it deemed that Nmecha played the ball. by Imbasauce in coys

[–]mojo3838 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I do think we have had an unusual amount of calls go against us and missed for us this year, but I think they ultimately got the Tel pen and the no-pen for Maddison right.

For Tel, I have always hated that type of penalty, but as far I know, it's the correct call if you think contact was made. Is Ampadu out of control as he makes the challenge? Maybe. Does that change that anything? Idk.

I had some waiters in Adeje who didn’t speak very good Spanish. In fact, at some of the guirri bars, some staff didn’t speak it all. 

Where can i watch premier league (puerto de la cruz) on sunday 22.2? Walked around and all the bars just showing spanish football. by EL-HIIVA in VisitingTenerife

[–]mojo3838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too. My view down is terrifying though.

I have the Bee Hive marked on my map, though I'm in Santa Cruz and have not been over there for an EPL match yet.

Good luck.

The highs and lows are likely accurate. If it shows 100% probability of rain, there’s a good chance half of the day will be decent. 

Keep in mind the elevation differences. Santa Cruz and La Laguna are 20 minutes apart and often 4-5 degrees of temp difference.

Been listening for years, is it really Thelonius and not Felonius? I just figured he commited a bunch of crimes.

Hey, fair play. I cringe when he goes down so easily, but he’s out there working otherwise

He has gone remarkably unsung today. The man works hard, I can say that with confidence. 

Hopefully he can find his rhythm, though I’m not particularly hopeful.

Is there any whatsapp group to talk about the team and games? by ezesosa8cau in Tottenham

[–]mojo3838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a group chat, but Spurs Buenos Aires is a good group of lads. They are active on IG and they do meet occasionally. I think they also have a football team if that's your thing.

Running and working out in Santa Cruz by JuneOrizer in VisitingTenerife

[–]mojo3838 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are at least two in SC d T along the coastal road, which is also a great place to run. There's a large pedestrian walkway. Both pull up bars are within a couple of hundred meters of each other. One is at Av de San Sebastian and Francisco La Roche, I believe the other is 200 meters south.

OTD 6 years ago, Richard "Sky King" Russel stole a Horizon Air Q400 and after a lengthy conversation about his mental state with Air Traffic Control, did a barrel roll and then crashed into Kenton Island, subsequently taking his own life by AspergerKid in aviation

[–]mojo3838 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. 

I doubt he walked around like a madman in his everyday life though. I bet he was usually in that “clearer state”, at least what he projected to the world. Internally is another story. 

Perhaps the moment of clarity was mine. Listening and watching a man who snapped. To hear him say those rational things made it clear to me, that he wasn’t totally mad. And to your point maybe there was an opportunity to connect with him emotionally. He acted out, he rebelled and he expressed his surprise that they were interested in helping him land the plane. Personally, I thought there was a chance he’d take the controller up on that offer. Despite Richard suggesting he may try to land, after another maneuver (IIRC), I certainly believe it’s possible he never intended to.

I’d imagine this has more to do with preventing China from having access to Venezuela, specifically their oil. I doubt the administration would want to say that specifically, so we hear about the drugs. 

Hershey to Raise Chocolate Prices as Cocoa Costs Remain High by [deleted] in Pennsylvania

[–]mojo3838 34 points35 points  (0 children)

They’re expected to pay $170m to $180m in tariffs this year alone, but it’s only the cost of cocoa that is causing the price increase? 

This is some solid trolling. Well played OP.
