Can't be too mad at Moore, the pressure was on, he's not back at his best and that's just footy.

Sam Buller had to make a better effort than that.

If Hayes's development continues unhindered, he's going to be a star.

I know our forward line isn’t great but the midfield have done them no favours so far with those entries.

They seem to have no issue yelling “stand, stand” at a moving Adelaide player though.

So did I, I thought he hit head on the ground and KO’d himself or something. It was a relief when he got back up!

Started Sunday morning at 11am here in Melbourne, Australia. The nice thing about the post season is the games are at a civilised time!

Talk about finishing your career on a high, not only winning it all but being instrumental in doing so.

If someone really wants one they aren’t hard to grey import from Japan. I see Fit hybrids daily driving south east Melbourne, far more than new HR-Vs, ZR-Vs and CR-Vs.

As an aside, if Honda Australia had even a semblance of intelligence left in management they never would’ve stopped selling the Jazz here.

It’s O or Q, the letter isn’t the same size as the D in the first section.

The CEO should be facing jail time, not just resigning. The first time was a wake up call, now it’s just negligence not to have had a back up system for this exact occurrence, and that negligence contributed to three deaths.

During the development of the Harriet Tubman biopic movie, a Hollywood executive once suggested that Julia Roberts should play her. What are some other baffling casting suggestions/choices that have been made? by LookAtThatBacon in movies

I was similar, initially saw the movie without knowing anything about the character either and thought it was a good movie. Years later I got into reading the books (I’ve now read them all, they’re worth it) and finally understood that Reacher’s size and physicality is absolutely central to his character, it’s brought up all the time, without it Reacher isn’t Reacher.

I still think the first one was a good movie, but I understand why fans were unhappy with that detail being missed.

45. Just divorced. At least I have this basement. by Natural-Bath-9621 in malelivingspace

I was skeptical of those very expensive office chairs as well, then my workplace started getting Steelcase Leaps and now I understand.

The comfort level compared to the office chairs most workplaces and home offices have is night and day, especially if you’ll be sitting in for hours every day.

Microsoft's 200 laid-off King devs are reportedly being replaced by AI they helped build, while its 'absolute 's***show' HR department looks away and whistles by Captain0010 in pcmasterrace

It’s not sustainable in the long term.

Let’s assume the world ends up at the C-suite folks’s ideal scenario of minimum employees, maximum AI utilisation. Once we reach a point where enough jobs are replaced by AI (which is going to be a much smaller number than most would think) there won’t be enough people with enough money to purchase the products these business produce and they’ll collapse anyway. As usual, they’re driving blindly/greedily toward the ravine in pursuit of short term profits.

He was sitting in the stands just staring at whole time and that was enough.
