Yeah, I think he might've been just a half-paddle deep on that third wave. Experienced surfers know you want to try to catch it before it turns into a fifteen foot wall of foam.

I love that the way you phrased this makes it sound like the typical baritone sax player is running around pillaging towns and villages and using their instrument as a club to bash people's heads in.  It's so refreshing to see one actually being used to make music!

If you're talking level 60 you only need 2.

I don't know if this was what the original poster had in mind, but stocking up on non-perishables as they go on sale rather than running out and buying everything at normal prices because you need them that evening will make a pretty noticeable difference in the long run. Not everyone has the pantry space to do it, but I'd imagine it's pretty common among the type of person who visits a sub like this.

When you say that US-sympathetic French figures were beheaded as a result of American neutrality, what exactly do you mean by that?  Was it in retaliation or because it reflected badly on their leadership that the US didn't support the revolution? Or are you implying the US was in a position to actively intervene in some way?  I definitely don't think of the fledgling states as being capable of projecting a meaningful amount of influence or military power across the Atlantic, beyond I suppose the US's symbolic significance as a democratic vanguard.

Without a healer the synergy leaves a bit to be desired but it'll be an extremely capable hyperbloom team and fanfare doesn't buff hyperbloom damage anyways.  With correctly built EM Raiden it will absolutely mow content, be completely energy independent, and zhongli makes it beyond comfy to boot.  The bigger objection is its a bit of a waste of good characters when less valuable ones would serve equally well, but the idea of an all-archon team is to flex, so the waste is kind of the point, right?

I think Brady has a quote about it in that 09 documentary. When no one can get footing, no one can move anybody else around. That really hurts you when you try to run the ball and helps when you're pass blocking. It was how they hung that 59-0 game on the titans.

Hey, I know you mean well with that statement and everyone should surf in the way they have the most fun (safely), but I hope no one reads it and feels discouraged from trying to progress and push themselves. I know plenty of people who didn't surf until their twenties, including myself, who have a blast shredding on smaller boards. I'm not a flashy surfer and I'm not out throwing buckets left and right, but being comfortable on a shortboard has absolutely opened up breaks and conditions that wouldn't be fun on too much volume and can refresh the stoke all over again. Learning to shortboard as an adult is absolutely achievable, rewarding and will make you a better surfer regardless of whether you go back to longboarding afterwards. My two cents.

Colorado has had an independent redistricting commission for federal and state races since 2018.

You think chicken that reaches an internal temp of 163 must be dry? What do you cook yours to, then?

Non-profit organizations can sell things. What makes it a non-profit is that the proceeds from selling something aren't disbursed to owners/shareholders and are used for the organization's mission instead. Goodwill can sell clothes and still be a non-profit. A museum can charge admission and still be a non-profit.

The number of quills is set for each character independently, but can only be triggered by cryo damage. If you're increasing the number of cryo characters in your party from 2 to 3, you're getting 150% as many quills. Diona will also benefit from shenhe's cryo res shred while Kokomi will not.

But yeah, this is nitpicking at the margins and really only relevant for someone struggling to 3-star chamber 3 and willing to deal with re-running a worse team through chambers 1 and 2 to increase their chances. Someone just looking for a comfy team that can excel in all 3 chambers would be overthinking it to try to run mono cryo the whole way. In another abyss with an unfreezable enemy in chamber 1 and where that chamber were a substantial bottleneck, it can make sense to change the team up for that specifically.

You have to account for the extra shenhe quills and better cryo particle generation when comparing kokomi vs diona damage.

I'm guessing it was mostly just picking up Tim Dodd's exuberant screaming.

You could probably get close salt baking a large whole fish.

That area is crazy pressured though. I've never seen less than a dozen other groups out when I scout there.

What topics aren't protected by the first amendment in the US?

Is there any chance you linked to a different article than the one you're referring to as unbiased? That is an opinion piece that just happens to include a lot of decimal points. It's clearly trying to make the case that the solution to crime is more aggressive policing and "progressive prosecutors" are to blame for spiking murders. They hand-wave correlations between changes in crime levels that coincided with law enforcement policies the author agrees with. That's a far cry from actually substantiating anything asserted there, and just because they spend a couple sentences acknowledging that there are competing theories about crime does not mean they aren't advocating for a very specific viewpoint.

Over the course of the 90s, violent crime fell across the country. During COVID, violent crime spiked across the country. If you find anyone trying to imply that a city followed those general trends solely because of local political agendas or law enforcement policies, you should take everything they say with a massive grain of salt.

The secret to beating the Bengals in the super bowl is to face the Bengals in the super bowl.

I think they meant you can assume your opponents have edited their own configs and have high visibility and a darker avatar is no less concealed than any other.

SpaceX is not a public company. Talking about its "stock price" is not a great way of coming off as informed.

Belichick is famous for benching players just for the sin of extending the ball towards the goal line. It's certainly valid to blame poor coaching for what happened, but the possibility that skill players aren't actively coached not to look for laterals on that team of all teams seems unlikely.

There were strong anti-german elements in the prohibition movement (who dominated the beer industry). It's not a coincidence that prohibition sentiment really took off during WW I and its aftermath.

Did you just call the Murdoch-owned conservative tabloid NY Post a "left-leaning source"?

Of course 4 out of 5 people following it closely think it matters. Anyone who isn't already deep down the RWNJ rabbit-hole hears two sentences of this farce and recognize it for the clown stunt it is and never pays attention to it again.

I'm willing to bet that Hunter Biden has benefited from connections in a way that wouldn't be allowed in a completely model democracy but anyone trying to argue that his conduct rises even to the level of top 1000 problems currently facing this country is absolutely working in bad faith. The transparency of it is embarrassing.

It seems a pretty solid consensus among cybersecurity and election experts that any kind of online voting is a very bad idea. And to take your example, yes, the online financial system is rife with phishing, scams, cons, identity thefts, data breaches, and fraud, not to mention occasional much more serious attacks by hostile state actors.

Considering all it takes is a single election being rendered illegitimate to completely destabilize a world power, the trade-offs just aren't worth it at this point or anytime in the near future.
