  1. OneOK Field in Tulsa is a great night at the ballpark. There’s a derrick in right field that shoots flames when the Drillers score, and the beer cheese and sausage sandwich from the Siegi’s stand is outstanding. The downtown Tulsa skyline makes a very nice backdrop at night. Sucks that they are a Dojers affiliate, though.
  2. Find some quiet time today and give this song a listen. It has been played to lament and honor those fallen in battle for over 500 years. It is hauntingly beautiful and speaks to the places in your heart, mind, and soul that can’t be reached with words. I can’t think of a better way to observe Memorial Day than to allow your heart, mind, and soul to be touched on behalf of those who have given the ultimate sacrifice four our individual safety and well-being.
  3. Thank you for defining “willfully ignorant.” That’s not what I’ve been doing in this thread. What I have been doing is pointing out when bad or questionable information is shared in this thread as fact. I’ve also stipulated many times that Tesla’s current approach to autonomous driving may not work. Still waiting on the actual results rather than “expert” speculation/prognostication. Meanwhile, Tesla vehicles have logged billions of miles in FSD and the predicted carnage on our roads still hasn’t happened.
  4. No shit. I contribute to this thread because I have actual hands-on (or hands-off if you prefer) experience with FSD. My daily experience has shaped my opinion that it is pretty impressive technology. I am an advocate for autonomous driving. I want to see us get there as soon as possible and save millions of lives. I think it’s foolish and short-sighted to completely dismiss the work that Tesla has done in this arena just because Elon is an asshole.
  5. 1) This smells like bullshit. 2) I have a different bias than most on this thread, so I try to provide a counter to that majority bias. (And don’t try and say “I have a bias towards facts”) 3) Echo chambers suck, especially when they bounce around bad information.
  6. That’s a very fishy post and video. OP admits that this is 3 month old video and the version he claims is involved wasn’t even released then. Looks way more like user error and attention seeking than an FSD failure. Once again, people are throwing random, unvetted shit from Reddit and BlueSky into this thread and treating it like facts.
  7. A bit of a weird sentiment... I hate that this happened in a military housing neighborhood, but I'm glad this happened in a neighborhood with a lot of folks who are trained in emergency response.
  8. aggy enjoying their dead cat bounce.
  9. Her Thetan was embodied in a newborn, so she's about 2.5 years old now.
  10. So I ditched DirecTV Stream in the offseason and SCHN was a casualty. I finally decided to say "Fuck MLB" for the moronic regional TV structure. I have yet to watch a game from first to last pitch this season. I follow every game on Gameday in the AtBat app (seeing highlights in near real time) and sometimes will listen to the game. So far this season, feeling pretty good about the decision.
  11. They still have another hurdle to clear today after the Battle of the Bulldogs.
  12. Out of kindness, I suppose.
  13. Poor Dave has never read his user manual. There are no rear emergency door releases for Model 3 up through model year 2023. The emergency egress from the vehicle is through the front doors, which have easy to locate and operate emergency releases.
  14. First time through, my brain read this as “Attack of the Clones fixes so much about the prequels” and I was like WTF?!?!
  15. I’m an OG Star Wars fan. Mom took me to see Ep IV in the theater when I was five. I love it so much that I’m not super-discerning with SW content. If it’s got the brand on it, I’ll watch it and probably find something to enjoy about it. That said… Andor feels like a huge gift. It tells a compelling story very closely connected to the stories that hooked me when my age was in single digits. It’s completely new, but still tickles the nostalgia. The magic is still there.
  16. aggy softball misery doesn’t usually pack the same punch as big three aggy misery… but this is Heisenberg-level purity. Y’all keep a buddy around with Narcan tonight.
  17. It’s been two days and not a single reputable source has corroborated that a Tesla was the starting point of this fire.
  18. Has Graham published any new fanfic about how Earley has his team poised for a magical run through the SECT and NCAAT? Shhh... no one point out to them that they would at home on their ass after tomorrow if the SEC hadn't expanded the tournament to be a participation trophy for every team in the conference.
  19. I learned today. So for every quarter year of service, a player earns $6875/yr in pension to start at age 62. 43 days is a quarter year of MLB service. So with 9 years of service (36 quarters give or take), TK will get ~$247,500/yr starting at age 62.
  20. Bummer that he didn't get to service requirements for a pension, but he still gets the MLB lifetime pass (given at 8 years). I've really enjoyed rooting for him, and didn't stop after he left the Astros.
  21. A game out of first on May 15th. As much as we love to bitch, can’t really hate on that too much. Especially compared to last year.
  22. I won't call them out directly, but I wouldn't put it past someone whose username rhymes with BaboNabo
  23. They’re just supporting his “bury me in the H” comment.
