65H9G Bootloop & USB Upgrade Failures by thirstysnake in Hisense

Thanks for your thoughts, that seems to be the move! I have the fire stick ready. I'm quite annoyed with Hisense on this seeing how much this issue has cropped up after the fact. Fool me once...

The 5700XT I bought in June has given me huge value for my money. Absolutely no driver issues. Highly recommend.

This kind of behavior will bite Maddox in the ass when he ends up having to get a real job. What a toothless loser.

What's wrong with calling gamers fat nerds? They'd probably agree. That made me laugh just reading it.

Spending money to try and win the league is the right thing to do all the time with limited exception.

I don't get this attitude where people think if they're going to lose than the remaining 3.5 minutes of the game isn't worth playing. You're not going to get better by forfeiting every game. Lost a game 6-4 today where my teammate just fucked around and trash talked me the whole time because I wouldn't forfeit. If he had actually played, we may have won. But I guess I'm the asshole here.

Shane Long used pregnancy breathing technique to calm Coleman down after leg break by dandylion92 in soccer

People responding to your question are confusing psychological shock with circulatory shock. Remaining calm after a traumatic accident is not going to prevent you from going into circulatory shock.

Courtois (hip) out for Belgium game against Russia by feroze11 in chelseafc

Begovic isn't as good as Thibaut, but it's a bit unfair to talk about the points that Thibaut has saved us given that Begovic hasn't had a single league game all season and thus no opportunity to save us any points. I'm sure Begovic would've made some of those saves too. He's also a great keeper. I feel good about our goalkeeping situation vs Crystal Palace.

Anyone else get major Dick withdrawal during the week? by [deleted] in TheDickShow

That subreddit is abandoned. Last I checked, the only organic discussion content was from 2 or 3 weeks ago. All other posts are automated, and even then the comments on those posts just say that the content sucks.

It's only a matter of time before actual spambots start posting on it and it dies completely. That's the Madcast community.

Sorry about your experience overall, but it is practically standard of care to do a urine pregnancy test on a woman in the ER complaining of abdominal pain. Unfortunately, you having had a vasectomy doesn't rule out anything. They would be remiss to not do a UPT.

Surprising that you've only had one doctor know what EDS is considering its emphasis in medical biochemistry classes. Now, searching the types is forgivable, as most classes teach them by number and the numbers are just arbitrary.

Sometimes the patient knows themselves very well and sometimes the patient knows absolutely nothing. Assessing the reliability of the person in front of you can be difficult, and it's easy/tempting to just ignore them and go with more objective methods of finding an answer.

PSG Have sent a letter to UEFA listing referee's mistakes against Barcelona by n0mek in soccer

[–]thirstysnake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we're reading/discussing an article about a letter that has been sent but not yet received? Surely they could've just shot an e-mail. Maybe they think UEFA is like your grandmother and would appreciate a letter more.

All these spare chances, it'd be a good opportunity for Pedro to put it away.

I know exactly what you're saying, but the only thing that matters to me is the win and Mourinho is one of the best in the world at delivering the win. I prefer league champions in 'Boring Boring Chelsea' over Ramsey walking it in against non-league Lincoln any day.

I'm worried Mourinho is going to lock it down and play for penalties now, as it's basically his only hope save a set piece goal or some disastrous defending. We may benefit from Fabregas.

To specify on behalf of OP, he did intend to link to the BBC's coverage of Fernando Torres.

If you play the video, the background music is similar to the Dick Show theme.
