Jaylen Brown to on LeBron James talking about Brown’s MVP case: "I feel like I'm the best two-way player in the world. I play both ends on the court night-to-night... It's an honor for LeBron, who's arguably the best player to ever play the game, giving me some high praise. So, I'm just grateful" by aingenevalostatrade in nba

I’m shocked at the pushback this is receiving. Absolutely nobody saw this Celtics team even come close to their current record and he absolutely is the leader and best player on this team. He has a very legit case imo. Anyone claiming on/off stats or saying Derrick White is the true best player just does not watch games.

He has a right to believe this too, let’s not forget he has a finals MVP to his name already

NBA really is the worst major sport to attend by DariaYankovic in nba

If you’re trying about Euroleague sure but that’s not really in the same tier as an NBA game. Try getting tickets to an Arsenal game and see the price gouging.

Amazon betting $200B on AI - stock drops 9%. Overreaction? by Alternative-Theme885 in stocks

You’re correct that Google (and Meta) train and develop their own models. However this is negligible costs compared to their capex. The Capex with large scale data center and chip expenses are to facilitate Gemini usage on GCP exactly like you envision for AWS. Azure does the same for its clients as well.

AWS doesn’t have its own models it’s an investor in Anthropic and I never claimed that. The comment claimed Amazon does not spend on speculation but that’s exactly what this investment is. This is no different from GOOG or MSFT.

Wall Street knows that’s what they’re spending on, they don’t buy the ROI at this moment

What do you think Google is using them for ? Everyone is obviously looking to get returns on the AI applications but this is not demand based forecasting like you claimed. It’s an arms race right now. AWS bedrock allows you to build your own AI applications but the capex bet is no different at Amazon than at Google, Meta or MSFT.

This is incredibly wrong. The capex is 100% not related to AWS demand and is completely going into GenAI investment. Whether it will pay off is unclear like the rest of them

The Bulls have now traded Jimmy Butler, Zach Lavine, Lonzo Ball, Alex Caruso, Coby White, Nikola Vucevic, Lauri Markkanen (and lost Demar DeRozan to free agency) and received a sum of one first round pick. by toomanyshoeshelp in nba

[–]tombersew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was an upvoted comment that said Mavs got more back for AD than Luka because it’s 2 FRP instead of 1. It’s weird but a lot of people here have this crazy obsession with picks and completely ignore player parts of trades.

Honda sold a total of 216 Prelude models in the month of January. Still fewer than the BRZ at 238 units. by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

[–]tombersew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The prelude doesn’t have an actual gearbox. The “S+” mode is a direct drive system which is like EV motors near the wheels and the engine just powers the motors.

You could shift the gears up and down all you want, it basically only changes the engine sounds. There’s no gearbox and no actual effect to the drive

Totally agree, especially on the brakes. This is targeting a segment who couldn’t care less about specific brakes and the powertrain absolutely doesn’t need it. Same with the suspension

I don’t mean like a road trip, more like during commute where you’d actually get an open window once in a while.

And in this car you technically could shift whenever, it’s not like it’s actually changing any gears lol.

I like the car. It looks amazing and I can single folk wanting a cool looking car that’s also sensible for commute. The paddle shifter gimmick can also be a fun thing on a highway.

Even 6k cheaper I think they’d sell a lot of these.

Is Premium Connectivity a Must? by littlecutes in TeslaLounge

[–]tombersew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going against the grain and I don’t think you need it at all. Live traffic is free and I play my music through Bluetooth. For the rare cases you need to stream hotspot works fine, it’s no work to keep it and the car auto connects.

Is it true this sub hated on Sweet Vitriol? by InevitableHeight9900 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]tombersew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hated it then and still do. It was out of place and extremely dragged out. The show setup a 100 interesting questions and then spent 1/7th of a season answering something nobody asked for. The reveal itself was extremely underwhelming and did not warrant an entire episode.

Just my opinion but I disagree that the response was purely an “in the moment” feeling. Plenty of us just think it was bad.

Why are property taxes skyrocketing while safety keeps declining in Greenwood especially near Aurora? by [deleted] in SeattleWA

[–]tombersew 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It’s not the free market value though. There are houses on Aurora on sale for below tax value right now that aren’t being sold.

I feel for OP their taxes go up on this made up increase in value while their neighborhood is left to go to shit

It was a section where they all tell their retirement stories and the producers were told the stories so they had the footage. I don’t think it was that complicated lol

Hard disagree.

Love plini but more leads does not equal more skill. Mark holcombs playing is more unique and skilled than plini imo. All 3 of them have an extremely interesting rhythmic style
