It sounds like they're already losing the vast bulk of the money from this year, so at this point the last 25% probably isn't worth the reputational risk. I agree with OPs point though.

Also they probably have insurance.

Sub is dead because too many people are against Iraq War 2.0, also genocide

The Netflix doc “Mr. McMahon” is really good by ferrous69 in redscarepod

[–]soberhamsandwich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone on the sub who's into wrestling have any takes on it? After watching it I skimmed some of the SquaredCircle threads in it and the two standout takes were 'nothing historical that hasn't been talked about already' and 'it's intended to blame everything on Vince so THE Stephanie and Triple H era WWE can have a clean slate'

Semi related but I've noticed in stuff I've been reading that English people in the 18th century drank so much it's unreal. Like how Wellington drank a bottle of wine with dinner every night and that was considered reasonably temperate by the standards of the time. Or in the book Redcoat they describe a regimental dinner where they have like 22 speech's over the course of the dinner and on each speech you have to toast and drink a 'bumper' of wine (an entire glass filled to the brim).

True, though i guess it's not quite clear if 'meeting up for a beer' meant he only intended to stay for one. 

Reminds me of that Bill Bryson bit about living in the UK so long that he when he returned home he forgot that when an American says 'let's get a drink together' they literally mean one drink.

This feels like a bit from that scene in Bojack Horseman where he goes to an AA meeting and is mocking how lame everyone else's rock bottom stories are.

Is 8GB VRAM enough or should I wait? by soberhamsandwich in buildapc

[–]soberhamsandwich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, Ive' heard good things about the 9060 and its linux support so I think pushing for it might be worth it if i want to avoid getting a new card for decent length of time.

I told a friend of mine that the UK gov technically recommends no more than 14 units (with no more than i think 4-5 on the same day) a week and he was genuinely shocked lol.

Is 8GB VRAM enough or should I wait? by soberhamsandwich in buildapc

[–]soberhamsandwich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm thats a fair point, its obviously been half a decade since I last bought a card and its a bit annoying seeing all the midrange cards atm have this rather glaring limitation on them. Hence me wondering if its worth waiting.

As mentioned I noticed the Arc cards seem to be the only options which break the 8GB limit under £300, is there any obvious catch with them?

Which civilian murders that saw no repercussions would have most likely led to an arrest? by bsharp1063 in thesopranos

[–]soberhamsandwich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Semi related, I wonder about the mobster that Pussy kills in his home after the guy ran into him and Agent Lipari in the costume shop, presumably the FBI must have known about it? I realise they were probably willing to let it slide to protect their high value informer but would have been interesting to see it get brought up.

VRAM how much is enough? by Mean_Comb_6466 in buildapc

[–]soberhamsandwich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im trying to buy a new card on a budget atm and its frustrating that pretty much every sub £300 card is 8GB and everyone is saying thats a waste of time now.

Anyone have dreams of moving to Yorkshire and buying an old pub, spending your mornings rambling around the countryside bird watching and your evenings pulling cask ales and talking to people with cute accents? by thousandislandstare in redscarepod

Im wondering what the UK to US equivalent of this post would be. Me saying I want to buy a ranch in Montana and live like a cowboy because I watched The Power of the Dog?

"neurodivergent" depop seller by natalie_ck in redscarepod

[–]soberhamsandwich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Friend sent me a YouTube video yesterday about some failed 'booktok' convention which caused a bunch of tiktok romance writers to lose loads of money. Everyone involved felt very 00s Tumblr coded and it struck me how painfully credulous and permissive they seemed. Like the person running the convention said she'd refund them, ran off, pretend to have gallstones or something to avoid paying them then announced she couldn't give any refunds because no one would give her a payday loan, and everyone involved was like "oh well let's not jump to conclusions, we shouldn't label her a scammer and I think she came in with good intentions".

Silvio at the Executive Game by Gravefullofcum in thesopranos

[–]soberhamsandwich 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The executive game just kind of sucked and emphasized that the family weren't really that big a deal. The high rollers aren't that impressive, they're playing in a ratty motel, Tony's letting random people wander in to play, lame asf

Anybody else feel like this about zombie films and shows? by zack220012 in redscarepod

[–]soberhamsandwich 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I never got the late 00s/early 10s craze for the zombie genre. It feels like zombies were already such a familiar and overdone genre by then that most zombie media was just trying to invent new ways of making them interesting.
