  1. Definitely beats nothing. I have an older one (2000's) & it worked well enough last summer, aside from having to empty the water tank every other hour. Just make sure the setup fits in the window well.
  2. Some of Allvin's comments since the TDL lead me too believe they are leaning more towards adding/tweaking than the 'step back' some might've been expecting or hoping for. Everything starts with Miller, and they've laid out the situations pretty clearly. Now it's wait & see how negotiations go.
  3. I do think something to consider is the stability the team found under Bruce. The way the momentum of the 19/20 team was derailed with the key departures, leading into last season & then Green losing the team this year, is something I wouldn't want to tempt again. The team is feeling good about themselves again for the first time in awhile, don't think I'd want to mess with that.
  4. Shocking news. Id be in favour of bringing Trotz in if we weren't already in bed with Bruce. Things could change but I think Bruce is coming back, and rightfully so. Can't go wrong with either guy though.
  5. Could get used to seeing this. Has Sweden named a captain for their team? If not you'd have to think OEL would be in the mix.
  6. Its great having all the games staggered throughout the day. I just didn't realize it in time to get my hungover butt out of bed for the first one!
  7. I think Dermott as a #5 is perfectly fine. He was a regular player in Toronto prior to last season & they were still a good team. Thought he was settling in nicely towards the end of the year.
  8. I never would've thought Karlsson could be anything, but it looks like he could be a legit bottom 6 NHLer (on a good team). Hopefully he signs without a hitch, & shows well next year in NA.
  9. Some dude attacked Dave Chappelle on-stage, the simulation is getting wild

      @Bure_Pavel  imagine if Jada came out and said "get my simp-- husband's name out yo mouth!"

      Society's going in the dumps if folks take liberties assaulting each other

      @Bell damn he had a gun and knife there?, guess the bouncers didnt do a good job

  10. Well it depends the context. In retrospect we look back on things & determine whether decisions made, or how situations were handled, were 'right' or 'wrong' (correct or not). Which indicates that there is a right way to proceed. In many context yes, Ex; your idea or my idea on how a particular policy ought to be handled - we may not know the answer. But on another level we have history to rely on in shaping & vetting our beliefs, and there are some truisms we've come too along the way that we can use. Your right about this, and I did mention this in my post. I don't regard this as necessarily a good thing tho. Popular doesn't = informed or intelligent, and I don't even mean that as an insult. The smartest person in the world is ignorant of 99+% of human knowledge, never-mind the average person that is just trying to survive (& thrive) as a social being with limited time/energy/influence. This leads back to what you said; your right that "correct" may not be the right term here, as people are in different positions & what's best or 'correct' isn't the same for everyone. (Even for the same person across time). But thats also part of why I wouldnt regard 'popular' as the next best option, I regard individual autonomy as the next best option.
  11. But I would say its *never. For the majority its never. And that's an important distinction. The parties (take whatever on your want) push a binary with them as the hero that has the right answers (or correct views) on every issue, and the opposition as the evil that you must stand against at all costs. In reality most people stand in different places on all sorts of issues, often context depending. These things are entities in themselves that care more about their power than the interest of the voting citizens imo. I wonder if people at that level even think about 'business' in that sense though. Like they are so beyond being in 'business trouble' that its not even a concern & they are just pursuing what they want to pursue, in Elon's case space & tech. Maybe you & I have similar concerns just aimed at different targets.
  12. What Rutherford said on 650 about Miller was really re-assuring imo. He sees the full picture like we do, but has the discipline to make the right choice both long & short term.
