  • In MLB, Season tickets holders are personally handled by an agent from the team's ticket office. Some MiLB clubs might do the same.

    It's supposed to make the experience feel more premium.

    Just tell him you'd prefer a more "carvana-like" experience.

    It's definitely old-fashioned, but baseball is notoriously slow to change.

  • This is high-schooler thinking.

    This is dumbass level name calling.

    The rich have continually asked the middle and working class to surrender everything over the past 40 years in the name of "economy" and continue to rob them blind.

    Wake the fuck up.

    God will not reward you in the future for your pittance, even if his name is "economy".

    Most of us out here are one traffic accident or slip and fall from complete financial ruin and it's absolute bullshit.

  • So, research shows that everyone's voice inside their head, no matter who they are or where they're at, is profoundly negative.

    Also, you don't have to believe it--which is oversimplifying, but that's the jist of it.

    It's not at all unusual.

  • Also, there was 3-4 months where nothing grew.

    So it was normal to work everyday, all-day, for long stretches, and then do little in the winter other than try and stay warm.

  • The sword was a sidearm. It was a trusty companion you had on you everyday to demonstrate your wealth and power and to be drawn in your defense if need be.

    When it was time for battle, your sword would still be at your side, but in your hands would be some sort of polearm or perhaps an axe.

    Also, commonly used but often forgotten about is a falchion. It was a sidearm that looked like a sword but did not require all the training in swordsmanship to be effective. Instead of being balanced like a sword to enhance the point control, a falchion was point heavy (like a machete) and swung like a hatchet.

  • XP was a disaster, security-wise. Vista was better conceptually but the tech was undercooked and win7 was basically a re-skin of vista plus some extra maturity due to time.

    Then, there's the entirety of the situation around those releases. Microsoft was so mismanaged under Ballmer that even though Windows 7 was maybe their best OS, it completely missed the smartphone revolution and set them back about a decade until they could be re-spun as a cloud technologies company.

    Imagine how huge they'd be if they had successfully leveraged their desktop and business dominance to force their way on top of the mobile world.

    Tl:dr Win7 was both Microsoft's best and worst product of all time.

  • Because linux runs on an incredible amount of platforms with an incredible amount of hardware targets and platform goals.

    It runs on every supercomputer and every raspberry pi and every android phone, as well as most web servers and almost every steamdeck.

    Use cases are so dramatically different there will always be multiple distributions with their own needs for package managers.
