No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do pro athelets get paid millions upon millions of dollars but will be taken off field for something minor? My coach always said walk it off or tough it out. How come its not the same in leagues?English
2·3 months agoIt’s precisely because teams are signing multi million dollar contracts with these athletes. These organizations are smart enough to know that they will get a better long term return on investment from these athletes if they get proper evaluation, care, and rest from an injury than if they push the athlete to “play through” the injury.
Professional athletes are also much more self aware of what is an injury that needs rest and what is something that they can play through. See for example George Springer immediately taking himself out of the game during the World Series, knowing that it wasn’t something he could just “tough out”.

6·3 months agoEither that, or he’s smart enough to know how ignorant and batshit crazy his supporters are. I’m not sure who I blame more. Insane billionaires like Trump have always existed, it’s only NOW that there are enough stupid people out there to give him unlimited power.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's the oldest video game you still find yourself playing?English
1·3 months agoI’ve always enjoyed it more that Ocarina of Time but I get that Ocarina is more of the classic Zelda experience. There’s a quirkiness to Majora’s Mask that I really like and I know the game really well at this point so it’s always a blast to play through.
The recompiled Majora’s ran perfectly on my PC but I’m still struggling to find the right settings and texture pack for Ocarina to get it to run as crisp on my PC.
Majora’s Mask would be a lot less fun to play without two somewhat hidden Ocarina songs, the Inverted Song of Time and the Song of Double Time, otherwise it can get frustrating having to reset the cycle too often. Typically what you’re supposed to do is reach some milestone (like obtaining a mask or learning a song) and then reset the cycle so that you can start the dungeon on a fresh cycle.
I do want to get Ocarina going and play through that though, I figured I’d wait for it to be available in the same N64 recompile setup that Majora’s runs in to see if it runs better than SoH.

2·8 months agoAt this point he’s probably hoping his unwavering support for Trump will translate to some kind of pardon for his wife. He apparently hasn’t realized those are going for over $1 million now.

politics @lemmy.world•GOP lawmaker caught dumping Medicaid provider stock before megabill voteEnglish
19·8 months agoBad title. “Caught” implies that someone will be holding him accountable.
As skeptical as I am, I’m feeling pressure to join the BS train on this. It’s literally all over LinkedIn… Even though I’m sure it’s all mostly bullshit, it doesn’t matter that I think. What matters is that this is where billionaires are dumping their money so I need to be in a position to get some of it or I may not be able to be gainfully employed in 10 years.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•You know which voice to use. We all know which voice to use.English
31·8 months agoJessica from Dune encourages her son Paul to use “the voice” which is some future space wizardry that allows him to control others.
In this case, the voice that Americans (probably mostly millennials) think of when someone says “my wife” is the voice of Borat, who develops an obsession with Pamela Anderson from a Baywatch poster and refers to her as his wife.

It could have been incompetence, yes… Or it could have been someone who knew this would slip by the Trump loyalists and end up getting published.
