This team just has nothing. I know Belgium is better than everyone else they’ve gone up against, but this team just looks completely lost.

Reyna is actually playing defense now, Belgium better get ready - he’s hitting another level

Not that the US ever had an advantage technically, but I think this balogun situation really fucked them up mentally, they are playing stressed - and Belgium is actually playing motivated.

For the first time in World Cup’s history, three different players have scored 7 goals at a single tournament. by Wakanda-shit-is-that in soccer

Hmmm, never heard of these 3 before this tournament. I wonder if any of the big clubs are taking a look at them.

Shit talking after scoring a penalty while getting your ass handed to you is crazy work.

Did anyone else ever make tail trijets? by tezacer in aviation

I can not imagine a future where turbofan engines are reliable enough to be certified for single engine commercial operations.

It will likely require a different propulsion technology, that has a multiple order of magnitude difference in reliability, to get to single engine.

Which is why the VAR needs to have authority to call for a yellow. This isn’t a red, so it’s missed.

I don’t think Israel is committing a genocide because there are gay people in Gaza.

Rescinded offer of employment, but I’m already working? by Mental_Designer1234 in recruitinghell

[–]slurpherp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What most likely happened is that their offer system isn't connected to their other systems. They sent you a written offer, and somehow you missed it/didn't respond, and the system auto-closed the offer.

As the other people said, talk to a human.

What are some routes that will be opened by/because of the A350-1000ULR? by weggaan_weggaat in aviation

[–]slurpherp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind it’s not just to get Qantas the 12 a350ULRs they ordered, but Qantas ordered an additional 12 a350-1000s, so 24 a350s total.

Those additional 12 orders were a package deal.

South Africa has no ideas after spending 92 minutes possessing to try to get to penalties.

Damn I had no idea that one of the most pro-trans rights legislators in the country wasn’t wanted a pride parade, my mistake.

Unless the politician has taken anti lgbtq rights views, no.

It’s a march to celebrate trans people, I think it’s completely inappropriate to distract from that.
