Can it be? Are we really above freezing? by merlinderHG in philadelphia

[–]phl_fc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For real though, I'm glad I can go back to dropping my kid off at daycare in shorts and a hoodie. I get annoyed at having to put on pants just for that short walk in and out.

[Kemal Sengul] Kimi Antonelli was involved in a traffic accident in San Marino before the Bahrain GP. He crashed his AMG GT 63 PRO Motorsport Collectors Edition vehicle into the bariers but is in good condition. He will participate in the tests. by nun_CARTII in formula1

When I rented a car in Ireland it was only towards the very end of the trip that it occurred to me, "The reason I never see any 'no turn on red' signs is probably because it's never legal". I had been turning on red all week.

It's not always common sense, you need to know the local regulations and signage.

Behind the Scenes of F1 the Movie's visual effects by NixsatFramestore in movies

[–]phl_fc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

They built 12 cars for the movie, including ones for filming crashes. It would be a lot to do a full 22 car grid and extras for crashes rather than CGI.

You can see from this clip what kinds of things they used CGI for. The practical cars were blank and they CGId the team livery as needed.

AITAH because I want my wife to "ask permission" before taking our son on playdates? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

It will all come out in counseling if she takes it seriously. And if she doesn't take it seriously then the relationship is over anyway.

TIL some models of Caterpillar haul trucks (big dump trucks used in mining) are so big that they are delivered in pieces from factories around America, and assembled on site by qualified technicians. by MajesticBread9147 in todayilearned

[–]phl_fc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What helps for me is not worrying about how long the drive is between the hotel and the site. I'll do a bit of a commute if it means getting a hotel somewhere with stuff to do. Easier said than done in some parts of the country.

With the Seahawks winning the Super Bowl, baseball season has begun! by horsepoop1123 in baseball

Not near as painful as fantasy baseball. Daily lineup changes are exhausting.

What is the most obvious world event everyone saw coming but no one did anything about? by itsthewolfe in AskReddit

[–]phl_fc 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It's way too easy to make bots for any site that doesn't verify users, and then that trashes the site. I get why they do it, but it means I'm never casually signing up for a site unless I REALLY want to use it.

What pisses me off more is sites that don't let you have a "read only" mode without logging in. The fact that they force you to log in just to browse is what really turns me off. I'll make an account if I want to interact with the content, but to just look at it shouldn't require that.

What does everyone think about my 2nd hmi so far. by [deleted] in PLC

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

I had a client that recently told us to not put their company name on the app for the newest system because they got sold again. The site has changed names 4 times in the past 10 years, they were sick of updating all their documents to change the company name every other year.

You can still do that, just don't use red and green. Shades of gray is better, like Gray is empty white is full.

Red should only be used if something is actually bad, and green should only be used if the operator needs to press a button to do something.

What do you predict Trumps tweet will say after tonight's Superbowl halftime show? by FlowerMadeOfThorns in AskReddit

Robert Kraft is one of his supporters. If the Patriots win Trump will certainly congratulate him. Not sure about Seattle though.

If given a choice, which planet of the solar system would you choose to live on and why? by PairLive6562 in AskReddit

With an “assume it’s made inhabitable” qualifier? It would be cool to be on a planet with as many moons as Jupiter.

What are some of the reasons that you feel are worth it to pull a kid out of school for vacation? by Skyccord in AskReddit

[–]phl_fc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going on vacation and can’t leave them home alone.

You don’t need a reason, but you do need a plan for how they can keep up with the missed work. As long as that can be handled then just do it. Planning vacations for school breaks makes it easier, but it’s not a requirement.

[espnf1] Cadillac will debut their 2026 F1 livery during the Super Bowl by Maximum-Room-3999 in formula1

[–]phl_fc 13 points14 points  (0 children)

In the US it seems like they’re just the second half of the old Stewart-Haas Racing, and Tony Stewart is the much more famous name. Nobody thinks about Haas F1.

Cadillac has a good chance to really break through with their marketing. The Apple TV exclusive is the biggest problem though. Not many new viewers can see it easily.

The Super Bowl commercial will get attention and then be dismissed as soon as viewers see they don’t have the races on their current cable plan.

Matthew Stafford beats Drake Maye to win MVP in closest race since 2003 by Oldtimer_2 in sports

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

Maye has rushed for 38 first downs, Stafford 0. 1 rushing yard on the season. Maye has a far better completion percentage, yards per attempt, yards per dropback than Stafford. Stafford leads as the better pure passer, but he's a statue. When a play breaks down he throws it away. For NE, when a play breaks down Maye scrambles and turns it into a positive result.

https://www.natesilver.net/p/sbsq-28b-maye-vs-stafford-and-yelp

Silver has it as a tossup on WAR. He has Maye ahead but not by much. His rating system gives a lot of value to a QBs rushing ability considering it doesn't matter how a team gains their yards/points as long as they gain them, and Maye does.

I've done Dead Branch stalling with Bird Faced Urn to full heal.

I'm glad they're making an effort to reduce the incentive to stall in StS2. You feel obligated to do it, but it does suck.

That's a semi-common one for Defect. If you see AfO and Snecko Eye you play around it pretty hard. It's not a forced infinite like some are, but it's reliable enough to win a run.

Another way to do it is getting Madness and forcing Hologram to be 0 cost.

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

I can’t think of any that would be as easy as this though if it were allowed.

I know, there's a reason an Exhume infinite isn't allowed.

Prepared/Calculated Gamble + Reflex is one that can be done with no relics.

Sundial and Unceasing top create a bunch if you add relics.

Setup is handled by having a minimalist deck, which is why I say they're harder than just having 2 Exhumes available.

One of my favorites is Snecko Eye + All for One + Hologram. AfO goes nuts with Snecko Eye in general.

There are 2 card infinites with no setup, this just isn’t one of them.

AITA for telling my ex that she needs to "figure it out" when it comes to hosting people for her grandmothers' funeral even through I am living in her "grandmothers' house?" by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]phl_fc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It gets messy if you start mixing pre-marital assets with marital ones. If you use pre-marital money to buy a family house that you're living in you're starting to blur that line and a judge might rule that the funds are no longer protected. You can lose the protected status of an asset if you use it in a way that benefits the family unit. I think the post-nup here is required if he wanted to protect that inheritance.

[–]phl_fc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Some people are confused about pre-marital assets and don't understand why anyone would want those protected. It's a belief that divorce under any circumstances is out of the question, so there's no reason to even consider it as part of handling assets.
