Best part of the opening ceremony!

So "clearly reporting" is now going to be subjective, just like snapping the ball after the play clock reads 0, completing the process of a catch, roughing the passer, pass interference, moving before the snap. Is there anything else that I'm missing? The NFL is literally just making shit up instead of fixing rules to make them less subjective.

Good to see Detroit becoming a free agent destination again!

I have never heard the story Sun God told about Dan Campbell's fake tooth falling out multiple times in a meeting and him just picking it back up like he dropped his keys! Great interview and banter overall.

I'm interested to see how this plane performs compared to the Concord. It'll be interesting to find out how bad the maintenance will be.

Also the criticism and the "whatabout other important things" people commenting here should know that more than one type of research can be performed at the same time. This is an aerodynamics problem. The other problems related pollution from engines, fuel sources, and environmental impact are also being worked in parallel. A planet of 8 billion people is able to work on many problems and ideas in parallel without having one be a detriment over another. It's not like an aeronautical engineer can be repurposed to be a fuel chemist!

Goff is hilarious in this episode! Great production again by the Lions media team!

Lindstrom and a 4th round pick. Pens retain $1.3 million, Canadiens and Red Wings pay $2.3 million each. Contract has 2 remaining years. Seems like a relatively even trade of a veteran presence for a young defensman.

Not unexpected, but the Bruins are losing a lot of veterans this summer. I have no idea which team will come out on top of the Atlantic next year, I can't wait!

There is a good article from Max Bultman regarding several red Wings Prospects. It sounds like Pellikka still has a way to go but Johannson may be closer to pushing for a roster spot. I'm also trying to crosspost this into the NHL community since it seems to be pretty quiet in team communities during the summer.

Set up an openvpn/wireguard server at a "home" with bandwith, and have family/friends route their Roku/streaming device route through a router with openvpn/wireguard client back to the same "home" .

Like others said, this is an evaporative cooler aka swamp cooler. It takes energy to convert liquid water to water vapor. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

lemmy.ca should be mentioned. It's like midwest.social, super chill...

Handbrake reads and converts DVD movie and video ISOs. If they are encrypted, MakMKV and DVDDecrypter can be used to get them ready for Handbrake.

Brightline is about to open their high speed rail between West Palm and Orlando! There will be less Mad Max Road Warrior reenactments on I95 because of this!

It feels like 20 years ago migrating from large chatrooms to bulletin board forums with a smaller more specialized community like setup. Posts and threads don't instantly get buried, and there don't seem to be as many assholes looking to pick a fight.

I see that by scaling down, some of the the more niche forums don't get the traffic, but that will likely change over time. I'm digging the integration with Mastodon so links to people and articles don't have to flow through Twitter. It minimizes having to sift through tons of ads to read what I want.

I also like the region based instances like lemmy.ca and midwest.social having communities and news that is of interest to those regions. It would be cool once more countries have their instances / communities.

Reddit had a good idea with having subs, but many of them got too big to be able to have meaningful discussion for many people. What is the point of trying to comment and engage in a topic that has 5000 posts? Lemmy hopefully can solve that by having the same community in different instances to keep the size where more people can discuss topics in a smaller more engaging setting.

Institute review of embellishment/diving after games and penalize with 10 minute misconducts to suspension for the following game. It's unsportsmanlike like dirty hits and should be treated as such IMO.
