I mean... You can be clinically dead and then revived with cpr and a defibrillator, so not entirely unrealistic.

Yeah, I was about to say, as a software engineer I can totally understand how that might have happened and am not surprised... But the skeptic/cynic in me feels like it's a convenient excuse.

Homer Beer baron in the distance

^^^no ^^^you ^^^won't

While I won't deny there is a biological difference that impacts performance there's also a systemic societal difference that doesn't help.

In general women are not given the same support, whether from family, schools, coaches, research or funding, to become top athletes.

It's certainly much better that it has been in the past now days and it's getting better, but even just people saying "women aren't as good as men" is something that sinks into the psyche of women who want to compete.

It's akin to men from poorer nations who can't afford resources, time and training, having a hard time competing against "richer" nations who invest more into it

To add extra weight to this comment. It is a common tactic to attempt to "bounce" a batter out, which basically means bowling with enough speed at such a short length that it comes towards the body, and especially, the head. If a batter is unprepared, it usually requires getting out of the way because trying to play a shot is likely to end up with you getting out or struck by the ball.

The ball is much harder and denser than a baseball and even a famous up and coming professional, international, batter died when he failed to get out of the way and was struck in the head.

Basically, there is a very real safety concern for players when it comes to something like this.

I guess the idea is that if a person is giving you zero ad revenue, then them switching to a diff browser instead of removing ad blocker doesn't change your equation.

But if any of them do just turn off the ad blocker it's a win...

However I'm not sure if they lose other revenue because they don't use chrome (like data tracking info)

Thomas Jane was also fantastic. Same with Jared Harris. Shame they couldn't secure him for later appearances, his character is great and he did the belta accent so well.

I guess in terms of an actual weightless object... Not... But if you have 2 equal weight items, call their combined weight 1 weight unit, take one away, that's half a weight unit, take two away, that's zero weight units.

"what's your name?"

"achoo"

"a jew? Here?"

Ironically the main actress is a New Zealander.

Also wasn't aware aussie/kiwi accents were a fantasy trope, especially as those countries didn't really participate in the medieval period.

Wait, it's she alive? The wording in the article makes it sound like she's dead.

Conspiracy became full right wing propaganda quite a while ago. Pictures of Clinton with epstein would get a billion upvotes but there were never any ones of Trump despite him being more relevant

"which one do I shoot?" vibes.

I guess Facebook is bad for it's... Well general shittiness... But they did invent react which a lot of the good parts of the internet use

Same. And now the history of what I've listened to will be gone 😕

The way the poster reads it looks like this is the 1 millionth march of 4 children. Which is kind of hilarious.

I've heard good things about proton. Considering switching to that as well. Other than heading so many places use your old email until you update it is there any reason you did it gradually?

You've got it backwards. If it wasn't for the government, regulations and anti monopoly laws there wouldn't be any new companies, it'd just be one major Corp for each sector.

They still don't even go far enough tbh.

Nooo, he wouldn't do that! He's a free speech absolutist remember?

Mmm, pan seared grandma
