Yeah. And notably, this isn’t a special thing which only applies to Twitch Partners or anything - even brand new streamers with a handful of followers and single-digit viewers only have a delay of a couple seconds.

Yeah, like even a guy at the very end of the bench barely above D-League status has a bio that’s something like “I was the best player on the court every single time I stepped onto a basketball court until high school. In AAU ball, I held my own against future NBA stars, guys you only need one name to identify. In…

O’Brien attempted to downplay the situation, telling reporters that the hits Johnson Jr. doled out were “not a big deal.”

Tell me you can’t ride a bike.

Yeah, that’s the unfortunate part about this article.

Ask the server if they would ask him to step outside.

Seriously where’s the apple, Microsoft or Samsung of China? Or specifically, the Nintendo, capcom or From Software? They don’t have one

The counter-counter point is that most people pay less attention to driving when they’re using cruise control - especially on longer drives when you can just sort of relax your foot and let your mind wander.

That doesn’t mean that we can’t empathize, but we should expect to be accountable when we make mistakes.

Haven’t listened to the episode yet, but my personal strategy for dealing with tilt is just to take a couple second break from whatever it is that I’m trying to do. Do something mindless in the game for a couple seconds, take a deep breath, and think about nothing. Then go back into it. Basically just a very short…

I find it interesting that they’re restricting it to offense only, because I actually feel like you might want to do so on defense more than offense - it’s the end of the half/game and you know the WNBA equivalent of James Harden isn’t going to put forth effort on the last defensive possession, so you tag out for a…

Alternatively, the team could actually be relegated so you could finally learn what the Pirates playing winning baseball looks like.

I do the same thing. I set the limit slightly higher just to cut down on emails, but yeah, you should absolutely have an alert set for when your card is used.

you lock yourself into perpetual mediocrity because no decent free agent will sign for your sub-.500 team.

Legally, I think there’s a way to do it. When owners buy teams, they already are required to agree to certain contractual terms and can be punished (even to the point of being forced to sell) if they violate the rules. So it might take some fancy legalese to avoid loopholes, but you could probably do it.

Yeah, “unprotected Miami pick!” sounds great until you remember that that Miami has an owner who is willing to spend even on middling playoff teams and a GM who has never shown the slightest interest in a true rebuild and a market that draws free agents.

Another possible solution would be an NFL-style “franchise player” tag, so you can re-sign someone with a full max offer but without cap-shattering levels of expense. Doesn’t seem to be much appetite for this (and it’s a flawed solution in many ways), but I could definitely see this getting kicked around a little…

Especially in the US, where the average worker gets around 10-15 days vacation total in a year. If you prefer to do the multi-day drives, that’s your choice, but recognize that choice likely requires you to shorten the amount of time you actually spend on-site for your vacation.

Agreed 100%. I just can’t get over the intro to this story.

Regarding restaurants traveling back in time, I think the biggest question is whether or not you could get people to eat there in the 1950's. Tastes were just drastically different and all your customers were raised in that culture - nobody is going to eat your special sriracha burger in 1953; they’re looking at that …
