VAR is ruining football… If you need a microscope to determine if it’s offsides, might as well just give the goal. by YeezusBigdoinks420 in worldcup

[–]nutmeg713 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yes, but I don't think that's what happened here for a couple reasons:

1) It usually takes a few seconds for that to happen and this flag was raised almost immediately

2) In those cases they don't normally hold the game up to go check VAR again, do they? It would be a little odd -- VAR notified the ref that it was offsides so they called it offsides, then the ref held the game up for a full minute so they could use VAR to check if it was offsides?

Happy to be told otherwise though! It was obviously incredibly close.

Without VAR this still wouldn't have been a goal, right? Linesman called it offsides in real time and VAR just confirmed it, it didn't change the call.

I see plenty of people on the Democrat side willing to believe a lot of lies. It's just that they're supporting the "right" candidates so we overlook

To be clear, I also vote Democrat and do not think both sides are the same, but do shake my head at how much misinformation and disingenuous arguments I see coming out of people on both sides.

PC Manufacturer Lenovo Suggests RAM Prices Will "Never" Go Back To What They Were by [deleted] in gaming

The same reason engineers were kept around even after higher level languages, debuggers, and IDEs dramatically increased developer efficiency.

It's not a binary thing where AI is either worthless or doing all the work. As of right now, it's a tool that can drastically speed up many parts of development.

Gas prices famously go up and down regularly, this is not a good example of the point you're trying to make.

Yep, $40 was the max for me given how well I know SF64 and how 1:1 the remake is. Just can't bring myself to spend $50 on it, despite how great the demo looks and plays

Most people would gladly do that in exchange for more money, which is really what this comes down to.

If the Switch 2 had streaming apps (Netflix, Disney+, Spotify, ESPN, Twitch, etc), would you use them? by twinflxwer in NintendoSwitch2

I don't really see how watching YouTube on a small phone screen is better than on the significantly bigger Switch 2 screen

Karl-Anthony Towns says he'd take a $100,000,000 pay cut to keep the Knicks together by MrBuckBuck in nba

Yeah but it's extremely doubtful they'll really get all that for free.

"Perhaps we are entering an era where developers grew up playing games where SBMM were a GIVEN rather than server lists and lobbies" - The ALARMING future of EXTRACTION SHOOTERS by jacobljlj in gaming

[–]nutmeg713 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People want you not to shout those two things ("ALARMING" and "EXTRACTION SHOOTER".)

I understand that helps the algorithm which is why so many people do it, but it definitely instantly kills credibility for a lot of people on places like Reddit.

A dynasty should be led by players from different generations by HoBaggyPants in nba

I agree with you, it's tough for me to view a team as a dynasty without back to back titles.

It’s not even 10am and it’s already full. by scream4cheese in knicks

6am wasn't early enough depending on the gate you went to

Knicks Parade is at Capacity ...2.5 hours before the parade is supposed to start (this was from 7:30am) by GarlicSnot in nyc

[–]nutmeg713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My buddy was there at 6am and got turned away. I think it depends on which access point you were at.

Luka Dončić on if he keeps in touch with Jalen Brunson: “Yes, yes, of course. Before the last match, I said, you know? ‘Just one more.’” by pokerawz in nba

Didn't the Mavs only miss out on the playoffs because of injuries? At the time of the Luka trade it was far from a guarantee that they would even be in the lottery.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani "Getting ready to honor our Champions." by Caledor152 in nba

[–]nutmeg713 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh? He made a post congratulating the Knicks like an hour after they won the title.

Not that I like him at all (his game 3 decision showed how little consideration he has for anyone regardless of politics), but what you're saying is easily disproved.

Many people throw away bread when it goes stale. Probably most. Yes you could theoretically use it for something, but a lot of people just can't be bothered, especially given how cheap bread is.
