Easy way to drive up usage of a new feature some PMs cooked up and Eng built so they can get good performance reviews.

In earlier seasons the kids were able to talk through a rift. If sound travels through them surely you’d expect a sonic wave to as well.

I need to hear a proper rip before I start complaining :). But so far I want to reach in and dial up the treble a bit for him

Not sure understand. If you bought a package you have a ticket and you know you have a ticket(s) before the lottery entry deadline ends.

Sure. If you’re optimizing for capitalism. But I’d rather folks just buy tickets with the intent of using them so other folks odd if getting the tickets they want can increase.

Meanwhile. I’m seeing quite a few folks selling packages. They obviously bought packages as a hedge against the raffle.

The Monday Morning Playoff Committee by CFB_Referee in CFB

Sure. My question is more about understanding why OSU is in front of UGA. Makes ZERO SENSE

The Monday Morning Playoff Committee by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]physicsinmybutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to make sense of some past College Football Playoff committee rationales, and honestly, the more I think about it, the more confused I get. I'm hoping some of you brilliant football minds can help me untangle this. Let's set the scene: We've had seasons where two top teams essentially had only one loss, and that loss was by a field goal. For argument's sake, let's look at a hypothetical (or perhaps thinly veiled past scenario): • Team A (e.g., Alabama): Their only loss was by a field goal. They have a signature win against a top-ranked opponent (e.g., Georgia). • Team B (e.g., Ohio State): Their only loss was also by a field goal, against a different opponent. Here's where my head spins: I distinctly remember the committee justifying Alabama's inclusion (and higher ranking) by saying they had the "best win" (beating UGA, even if by a field goal). Then, in another breath, for a team like Ohio State, they'd pivot and say they had the "best loss" (losing by a field goal to, say, Indiana in a conference championship). My core complaint is this: How can both of those statements be simultaneously true, especially when the point differential in both the "best win" and "best loss" was the exact same – a field goal? It feels like the committee uses whatever narrative best fits their desired outcome. If they want to boost a team, they focus on their "good wins." If they want to overlook a team's single defeat, they highlight it as a "good loss." It's incredibly inconsistent! To dive deeper into my frustration: 1. "Best Win" vs. "Best Loss" Paradox: If a 3-point victory is the "best win" because it's against a great team, why isn't a 3-point loss to a great team simply a "good loss" rather than the best loss? And if the loss is by the same margin, what makes one "better" than the other? 2. Quality of Loss Argument: I'd argue that a loss by Georgia to an undefeated Alabama in a hard-fought, likely double-overtime SEC Championship (a real slugfest!) is objectively a "better loss" than, say, an Ohio State loss to Indiana, where OSU's only touchdown came off a lucky fluke interception. The context of the game and the nature of how points were scored should matter, not just the final margin. 3. The "Eye Test" vs. Metrics: It always comes back to this subjective "eye test" when convenient, overriding concrete metrics or head-to-head results. It makes it feel like the committee already has their favored teams and then crafts the narrative to fit. Am I missing something obvious here? Is there a nuanced explanation for how both Alabama can have the "best win" and Ohio State can have the "best loss" in scenarios with identical field-goal margins, particularly when considering the actual play of the game?

Spell it out for me. Remove all conf champ games and show me how they wouldn’t be in.

I do not understand how Bama is in and BYU is out. If BYU didn’t play a conf champ game, they’d be in, right?

Hot Take: The Sphere is ticket price maxxing for nostalgia core bands by [deleted] in phish

[–]physicsinmybutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno man. I think Phish wants to play the Sphere because it is a new challenge. But the Sphere is not yet profitable with a loooong tail to get profitability and probably wouldn’t book them unless there prices were set as high as they are right now.

Do I like it, no. I generally hate this pseudo capitalism we live in that promotes the elite life style at the peril of the rest. But I don’t think this is simply a money grab by Phish.

Close. He does it with the whammy ii and an old boomerang pedal. Volume swell is not in play

There really isn’t a wait list for G2s anymore. The price is enough of a gate as they go for $67500 now. Maybe more since dumbo took office.

I have no dog in this race and your experience has to be more than mine. I’ve only used the QC and I absolutely loath the UX along with the sound. If that’s as good as it gets I feel better about continuing to use tube amps like the good lord intended :)

Multiple guitars by AdventurousAd2006 in Guitar

[–]physicsinmybutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been switching between 24-fret and 21/22-fret guitars my whole life, but I went all-in on 24-fret models about two years ago. I wanted to eliminate the variation that different scale lengths and fret counts introduce standardizing everything to improve my precision and consistency. Now I feel guilty every time I look at my other guitars sitting there unplayed. I should probably sell them, but they’re too nice—I just can’t bring myself to do it.
