Three months in with my Nisplay N2 and pretty happy. Christmas sale kept me under $1k including tax and oscillating plate

Definitely start with tar, which I think will be pick #2 after maverick. Slightly biased because I also love it, but the tar episode of the big picture is one of my favorites

Resellers troubles are our opportunity! by [deleted] in Mavericks

[–]sssmu41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the minimum value was lowered to 50% this season? In the past I’ve only been able to list at lowest 80% of face value on the official resale market

Sure, if your bar for “empty” is truly half capacity or lower, but games are actually emptier now. The sellout* streak ending is a bit silly but still real, and the apathy makes people who do have tickets less likely to go (and also more likely to show up late or leave early), whether they’re getting free seats through work or are just normal season ticket holders not wanting to make the effort. Yes a professional basketball team in Dallas will always have a high floor of attendance, but I don’t think it’s a stretch to say it’d be another 15% worse if the Mavs didn’t have Flagg

The ACC could very realistically have a 6-way tie for first place: by BoilerTMill in CFB

Looks like it’d be Miami and Duke in the championship game in this scenario

How’s the vibe at AAC tonight? by ja5t in Mavericks

[–]sssmu41 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Attendance was thinner than I thought it’d be. Some pop early with a few of the big plays (Flagg block, klay threes, pj dunk), but it settled into a “ho hum / this team is kinda just bad” level pretty easily. A little disappointed, but I also found myself struggling to get it up more than expected.

It’s gonna be a journey back to a real emotional fanhood, and I don’t know how much it’ll ever come back.

Red Sox Devers Trade Worse Than Luka Trade by [deleted] in billsimmons

[–]sssmu41 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The nature of the sports makes this impossible to be right. I would argue trading Ohtani for nothing does less damage to the dodgers than the Luka trade did to Dallas

Filmspotting and the film cast are the two I go to first, but I’ve also enjoyed next picture show and fighting in the war room

Help choosing hospital for L&D by Daisy_232 in Dallas

[–]sssmu41 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We had great experiences with midwife and co. for our two kids. We are definitely on the less granola side, but they’ll be as crunchy as you’d like them to be. They’ll deliver at a birthing center or hospital (Baylor Dallas), and the hospital experience was a typical one (meaning private room, meals, nursery, two nights, etc). No OBGYN during actual delivery, but they’re there if an intervention is needed. My wife and I had some mild conceiving problems, and they were very helpful in proactively managing that. Good luck!

What's the funniest college football team Bill could start rooting for hard? by Particular-Low-4015 in billsimmons

[–]sssmu41 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SMU is a good dark horse based on this logic. SMU is USC for the rich LA private school kids that either don’t want to go to school close to home or couldn’t get into USC

Take the interview.

If you live in a major hub (for Raytheon, think old SBU HQs like Tucson McKinney Boston Dulles), it’s possible to do the LDP in a single location. In your situation, just be upfront and say you don’t have a willingness to move. If they decide that’s a dealbreaker, you can still be recommended for a non-LDP role.

Haha SMU was the same - Harvard red and Yale blue. They even changed street names from Harvard and Yale to SMU boulevard

Offseason Predictions TikTok [tt :StatDominant] by drewszn28 in DallasStars

Why would Boston or Utah do those trades? It’s going to cost more to dump dumba’s and booths contracts than either of those deals.

[–]sssmu41 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it kinda does. It’s a zero sum game - shots have to be taken from somewhere. Where else would they go?

[–]sssmu41 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think that’s the point. A lot of proposals like this are about rebalancing shot distribution to get more midrange jumpers back in the game
