The fact that people don't like Skyler is intentional. At some point you're supposed to ask "why am I cheering for the drug dealer over this woman"? That disconnect is a huge part of why the story is so engaging. They make you root for the bad guy over the good guys, even when you shouldn't.

Many of those questions aren't particularly useful either. They may be interesting from a philosophical perspective but that's the language of thinking, not the language of doing. I've written code in assembly language. I've looked at the output in binary. I can explain in basic terms what is happening there. Does that help anybody?

I would argue that it doesn't because almost everyone writes code in higher level languages. Even if I can tell you what I know it doesn't provide any practical information for you to use. Similarly, I could explain to you how long division works but the next time you need to divide two numbers you're still going to reach for a calculator instead of a pencil and paper. What then is the point of lamenting the loss of knowledge that no one uses directly? It could be reconstructed from what remains if necessary but since it isn't necessary it doesn't matter.

What does it matter? They said we went to Venezuela for the oil and nobody did anything about it. They know they can say what they want and Americans will never hold them accountable

I love it. Perhaps it would have been more effective to just do whatever they did to the swings at the other parks? Either way it's good stuff

I've lived in Colorado for a long time and I don't think anywhere near 1 in 4 there are obese. Perhaps I have a fundamental misunderstanding of what that means but it seems way off.

Fair enough. That isn't how I interpreted the comment but you could be right

Who gives a fuck about showing the Nazis civility? Punch them in the dicks and take their shit

"The bombings will continue until peace is achieved" is one of the craziest things I've ever heard Trump say, and that is saying a lot

I don't think you are accurately accounting for the popularity of politicians who align themselves with MAGA policies in Canada

God damn, those are some real life goblins

 

For the first time in two decades, Oklahoma State is in search of a new football coach.

Oklahoma State fired Mike Gundy, effective immediately, according to Robert Allen.

In his 21st season, Gundy accumulated a 170-90 record with the Cowboys. That’s the most wins in program history, and it isn’t particularly close. Pat Jones, Gundy’s coach, is second on Oklahoma State’s all-time wins list at 62-60.

Eleven of Gundy’s teams spent at least one week in the top 10 of the AP poll, climbing as high as No. 2 in the rankings in 2011. Gundy-led teams have had a pair of top 10 finishes in the AP Poll, finishing third in 2011 and seventh in 2021.

Six of Gundy’s teams finished in the top 10 nationally for scoring offense. The aforementioned 2011 team finished the season averaging 48.7 points a game, which ranked second in the nation. OSU’s 2017 squad finished second nationally in total offense, averaging 568.9 yards a game. Led by quarterback Mason Rudolph, that 2017 team finished first nationally in passing offense, averaging 389.2 pass yards a game.

OSU’s best defense under Gundy came in 2021 when coordinator Jim Knowles’ group allowed just 18.1 points and 297.9 yards a game, which ranked ninth and fifth in the country, respectively.

Gundy teams loved a big win. He had 11 wins against AP top-10 opponents, with the most recent being the Cowboys’ 27-24 win against No. 10 Oklahoma in 2023. Gundy has beaten the No. 3 team in the AP Poll twice, besting Missouri 28-23 in 2008 and Baylor 49-17 in 2013.

From 2006 to 2023, OSU teams finished with a winning record. Eight of those squads had at least 10 wins. There have only been three other teams in OSU’s history finish with double-digit wins, and Gundy was the quarterback for two of those squads.

Speaking of his playing days, Gundy still ranks fourth on OSU’s all-time passing list with 8,473 yards, and the three players ahead of Gundy (Mason Rudolph, Spencer Sanders and Brandon Weeden) were all coached by Gundy. Gundy ranks fifth on OSU’s passing touchdowns list with 57.

 

Can we add the option to exclude communities and/or posts that are in a different language than our chosen default? I'm guessing filtering communities would be easier than individual posts but I'm not sure how language would be flagged. I understand some people may want to see some of these posts but even multilingual people must be bombarded with posts in languages they don't speak. I'm getting pretty annoyed that half of my feed is stuff I can't read.

I've looked through the settings multiple times but I suppose it's still possible this already exists and I just missed it.
