Watching coverage now and grateful I don’t live in the UK where it looks like there’s no way to watch it! Looks like the classic “can they do it on a cold, rainy night in StokeBournemouth” game.

Team: Kelleher. Gomez, Matip, Quansah, Tsimikas, Elliott, Endo. Jones, Salah, Gakpo, Szoboszlai

Substitutes van Dijk, Konaté, Núñez, Mac Allister, Adrián, Jota, Gravenberch, Scanlon, Alexander-Arnold

Surprised we’re starting Mo - although he does get to wear the armband. Maybe he couldn’t resist those lovely white and green shirts lol.

No idea how Mo can shrug it off with a smile when someone grabs him with two arms and wrestles him to the ground with not even a foul given.

I think there’s an assist there for Darwin - which breaks his “I only assist for Mo” record.

Edit: apparently I’m wrong… I guess makes sense that the post breaks the chain. The streak continues!

It’s certainly feels like there’s a 2nd goal in here for Toulouse.

Also it looks like the away end is on fire. No… literally on fire. Camera caught a brief shot and it’s a solid mass of flares… you can see the smoke starting to drift across the rest of the pitch now.

Commentary:

“Endo didn’t need to do much with that cross”

“The technique on that header was excellent”

🙃

Talk about a manager stamping their style on a team, this feels like nothing more than all those Dyche Burnley games.

Solid side out today - doesn’t matter where Everton are in the table, this one always matters. Glad Richarlison is no longer an option for them… always felt like he couldn’t keep his head.

Photo of an estimate from a local mechanic? And same with you - take all the physio you need and bill the hell out of them. Hope the knee’s settled down now but an expert opinion might spot something long-term that can be corrected now.

Sorry to hear :( Feels like we’re all one momentary lapse of concentration (usually someone else’s) away from a life-changing coming-together. I’ve lost track of the situation with the shifting sands of ICBC and what they will/won’t do these days, but can you claim against them for a) any out-of-pocket medical expenses (eg physio) and b) damage to bike/helmet?

Ahhh right, sorry - must read more carefully - I see you’ve already said ICBC will cover the helmet. If you get the bike in for a mechanic to look over & give you an estimate then presumably they’ll cover that as well?

I’ve never understood why there’s a fuss about default wallpaper. It ships with a dozen options and you can obviously install your own. I guess it’s the opportunity for a news story and a sign that things have reached a certain level of development and are getting close to release.

Personally, I saw the item on installing your own dynamic wallpaper at https://www.omglinux.com/dynamic-wallpapers-for-gnome-desktop/, followed the instructions on github and set up a lovely time-of-day based wallpaper based on the game Firewatch (https://github.com/manishprivet/dynamic-gnome-wallpapers#code-firewatch) - I love all the sunrise/sunset options there but if you’ve played Firewatch then this one might speak to you :)

Small and dense Canadian city here… not sure we even have school buses although I’ve seen them in other nearby school districts where I assume the catchment areas are wider.

And yes, they’re the standard yellow school bus 🙂

There is a nice sweet spot when they’re old enough to have phones but not old enough to complain about having you track them 🙂

It’s great to have them walk, even when they’re very young and you need to walk with them.

Back in my day (insert grandpa Simpson gif here!) I had a 10min walk to a bus stop and caught a public bus. Felt sorry for the adults that had to catch the same bus with 40 wild children.

These days I think my friends’ school age kids all walk or cycle - we’re in a small city with fairly good bike infrastructure.

someone high up had a shitty idea and told engineering they had a month to figure out how to make it real

Ever see that Simpsons episode where Homer gets to design a car? Always reminds me of that.

It’s also pointy as fuck. Mobile guillotine.

North American trucks in general are death on four wheels for pedestrians, cyclists etc. The tall vertical leading edges hit pedestrians in the hip and torso and then toss them under the wheels.

In the EU there’s regulations about this stuff, designed to ensure that people are hit (ideally not hit at all, but you know what I mean) in the legs and thrown up onto the hood. Plus regulations about spacing underneath the hood to the hard engine components which allows for a certain amount of cushioning deformity when the victim hits the hood. Would love to see that sort of thing regulated in North America but not a chance in hell of it happening.

so it would not be a surprise if Reddit administration or spez personally decides to usurp those mod teams.

There was some comment about “we’ll do whatever’s necessary to keep reddit online” so I think the implication there is that if high-traffic subs went dark for an extended period then he’d evict the mods and replace them with his yes men.

Personally I think the subs should go dark for 3 days each & every month. You can still run a successful community with those restrictions but it’s a pretty visible signal to investors that hey your userbase hates you and is itching for the opportunity to leave your sorry ass.

You can’t expect parents to let their kids WALK to school can you? It’s not safe - there’s so many cars around! 🙄

Migrated to Debian 11 from Ubuntu 6 months ago. Loving it.

With Ubuntu I used to stick to the LTS releases and wait for a .1 upgrade. But I’ve been running a Debian 12 VM in anger (ie actually doing work on it - I needed PHP 8) for the last month or two and it’s been faultless for me. Might break the habit and upgrade the main machine early :)

Edit: almost pulled the trigger a little early tonight. Ironically the one package I have that doesn’t seem to exist for 12 yet is Virtualbox - not something I could install & test in my Debian 12 VM…

As the manual says you should run

apt list '?narrow(?installed, ?not(?origin(Debian)))'

before upgrading to check what non-Debian packages you have installed.

It’s gone pretty much as you’d expect:

#1 doubling down on everything and saying “I’m sorry that you were upset about this”

#2 ignoring the untrue allegations he made about the convo with a 3rd party developer and calling him out for having recorded the convo instead

Interesting that this is about the brand and not specifically about the cars. Expect a lot of this is down to their CEO’s rapid fall from grace.
