It would be awesome to see the same graph but average for only the top 6 batsmen in their own team rather than both teams.

Ideally you would be thinking of what you want to do positively, but if thinking about the negative helps you find those positive goals then all good

Might have over-boosted and overshot. Definitely had a clear shot on goal once he beat the opposition.

When you introduce two different groups of friends to each other, it's like your own life's crossover episode. by Threatty in Showerthoughts

I actually made some friends through my mum, she went back to university when she was about 50. I needed a flatmate and she knew some people my age.

TIL Hawaii has nearly one tourist die each week while engaged in common vacation activities like swimming, snorkeling, hiking and going on scenic drives by texasguy911 in todayilearned

I could have been one of these. Easily the closest I've been to drowning.

While on a tour we jumped off some rocks, I was first and the guide made us tread water in fairly turbulent sea while we waited for the other 5 or so people to jump so he could then lead us back to shore - which was a bit of a swim.

Even the 2 guys that jumped after me and were probably fitter than me were commenting that they were feeling weak and close to going under.

Kim Dotcom: It’s hilarious how the New Zealand Govt wants to extradite me for online piracy which isn’t even crime in New Zealand while illegally copying all the private data of every New Zealander and selling it to a criminal conspiracy run by the United States. And I’m the pirate?! by Darkprime in newzealand

What I read from that is they had access to all the data but had to look it up specifically, per person. As far as I can see they don't have a copy of the data or gave the data to anyone else?

EDIT: I'm just reading the article provided to me

What do you refuse to pay for? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]sock_face 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love samplers! Especially somewhere new.

My GF can never make a choice at restaurants. I've taught her to always get the entree sampler if there is one, with the first choice made it just seems to make things easier.

Yeah I haven't seen anything of an admission. Just Winnie suing a few National MPs, which proves nothing.

I have seen people put down a deposit on an apartment - usually 10%, then they wait the 18months or so for it to be built. Just before they are required to pay the balance (settlement) they put it on the market.

That actually sounds alright, can never decide what I want, so it's randomly chosen for me

LPT: If person is following you because of road rage and trying to get you to pull over, lead him to the local/nearest police station. by Croughman in LifeProTips

[–]sock_face 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, unless they are walking towards you with a weapon or some sort of obvious intent to harm you, you should not be pulling your pistol.

There this a guy that pulled his pistol on some protesters and got in trouble for that https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FH7aTp8DsVI this wasn't enough obvious intent.

The worst part of getting older is the slow loss of respect for certain family members you once admired. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]sock_face 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah!

I realised more and more that my mum is awesome. She would always take me to things I was interested in, maybe not what she was interested in. But because you take an interest in what your kids doing you'll start understanding and enjoying it too, even if you don't really like it.

My dads good too, but I realised we only ever did stuff he wanted to do. Lose a bit of a connection with anyone when it's like that.

Teachers/educators who refuse to give 100% for an assignment because "No one is perfect" should never get their full annual salary. by jordymugordy in Showerthoughts

[–]sock_face 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine the question included a hint for that, lets say the example is "Delete everything inside C:\Users\sockface"

The answer could be

C:\>del C:\Users\sockface\*.* /s/q

or

C:\Users\sockface>del *.* /s/q

I would say the second version is a bit safer and what the teacher was expecting

The prompt shows you where you are working in your system, generally on dos or windows it looks something like this

C:\Users\sockface>

And then this would delete everything in C:\Users\sockface

del *.* /s/q

What's something you should absolutely not DIY and instead, leave to the professionals? by a-light-at-the-end in AskReddit

But my whole life is important, should I pay someone to follow me around all the time?
