I’d left season 1 of For All Mankind half-watched for 3 years. Decided to get back to it today and ended up finishing it.

Really enjoyed it! Might start Season 2 before bed

Not that the insane detail on the busy 2-page spreads aren’t unbelievably good, but I kind of wish we’d seen more of the aggressive shading that sometimes popped up in the opening volumes

Two great weekends (exclusively from a sports perspective!) for me and the teams I follow.

First 15 minutes I was in awe of how well you were drilled. But after that first goal it just seem like they had it in them to actually beat us. 2-0 and you might have had it beyond saving, but from 1-1 it seemed like this was the only way the game was going

When you see 3 goals from a 0.49xG you just know there’s been some absolute screamers

Genuinely torn now. On the one hand I obviously want to see them turn it around, but it’s also painfully obvious that the execs haven’t a clue what the fuck they’re doing, so maybe spending the rest of the season in freefall might help tell on them?

Being told there were no transfers or loans being considered in that kind of dire situation, while the non-coaching execs keep trying to steer your coaching decisions because the podcast they listen too had a better idea, would have had me ready to leave and all.

Well, Amorim had to go because of the relationship breakdown,not because of the performance,I mean. Man’s last few games were with half the squad out. I said when Bruno got injured with Mount and Mainoo also out and the AFCON players gone that surely this would force a midfield buy in the Jan window

Pundits and plastic fans rewriting the narrative that Ole would be a terrible choice, or that Amorim simply had to go. The common thread throughout is that the expectations are simply too high because of the legacy.

(Not that there weren’t spells of clear underperformance under either)

Moyes and LVG just a steady decay of the inheritance. Mourinho doing the work and getting fed up after 3 years. Ole weathering the dip on goodwill but and it paying off as he’s the most successful of the lot. ETH being a disaster.

Having spent more time watching Man Utd this last 10 years than every other decade in my life combined, I found it quite funny that a graph popped up on an article and is basically a 1:1 mapping of how I’ve experienced every manager’s tenure since Fergie

I appreciate the skid lines through the bean sauce where clearly a half-eaten sausage been glided through to mop it up.

Yeah, SHR is really just RAID5 with some flexibility to mix and match drive sizes. A NAS *should* be able to go from RAID1 to RAID5 once you add a third drive and give it a lot of time to rebuild but I’ve never done it myself.

I use Synology’s hybrid raid and it’s fine to add new drives, even going from one disk to two

How bad could they possibly be.

I don’t know why it works!

My best guess is that mentally you always think β€œwell, of course I can pick up a single sock, nbd” and there’s enough going on mechanically for so little sustained time that it just loosens up ezpz

You’re not going to believe me but I swear to god this works 100% of the time…

Take a single sock. Drop it to the floor. Pick it up. Drop it again. Pick it up. Drop it again. Keep doing this. Within 2 minutes you’ll feel quite a lot better. Do the sock routine as needed.

I want to see the prequel where Lady Jessica is telling 7 year old Paul Atreides to use the voice at the dinner table and he chugs a full can of Coke before belching β€œPass the salt” in her face.
