TIL football is a multi-billion-dollar sport, but there is no official public game clock for stoppage time. One referee decides when the match ends, based on a running estimate of lost time that nobody else can see. Ie. tracking stoppage time in their head while simultaneously refereeing the game.

CMV: Religious exemptions shouldn't allow animals to be slaughtered without being stunned first.

I honestly can't understand why we still allow this in 2026. If we have a simple, effective way to make an animal unconscious before it's killed, then we should use it every time. If not, we're allowing unnecessary suffering when we don't have to. We tolerate the intolerable.

I respect people's right to follow their religion, but I don't think any religion or tradition should be exempt from basic animal welfare laws. Preventing unnecessary suffering should come first.

If we're not willing to require stunning before every slaughter, then at the very least we should clearly label meat to show whether the animal was stunned first or not. That way people can decide for themselves what they're willing to support.

I'm open to changing my view if there's strong evidence that slaughter without stunning doesn't cause more suffering than slaughter with stunning, or if there's a convincing reason why religious exemptions should override animal welfare.

Model S 2017 autopilot phantom brakes for shadows from bridges & light poles

Doesnt this car have LIDAR or something, would have thought it would be able to 'see-through' shadows.

Anyone else experience this with Tesla? It doesnt happen all the time, but most frequently on sunny clear sky days on the motorway.

Would be nice to trust autopilot more, but the phantom braking is so unexpected I rarely use it.

I live in Norway.

The camera lenses are clean. Any thing i can do to improve this?
Do other Teslas suffer the same flaw?

TIL: the ROI on players is disparate AF

Like holy shit that's a lot of moola.

One briefcase of cash gets you a Koenigsegg, the other gets you a clapped out Datsun.

EV battery doom and gloom (in th media) versus real ownership of a 9yr old EV

A few years ago there was all this doom and gloom online, from politicians and in the newspapers about EV batteries failing straight out of warranty and needing new batteries after a few years at enormous cost to the consumer and environment.

Well, 9 years later on my 2017 model S 90D. and the car still showing 407km range at full charge. Plenty of range for long drives and this after a decent 250,000km on the clock. (Original motors)

So happy I didn't listen to the doomsayers!

The car still accelerates like a cut cat, smiles per miles and all that. :)

Have a great week everyone!

The Norwegian viper spends these sunny days acting like he's bloody bullet-tooth-tony, a regular hard bastard—claiming the rocky ground, and when you get a tad close he dares ya: "c'mon mate, take another step, see how that plays out"

—then winter rolls in and suddenly it’s, “Nah mate, I’m not built for this.” Turns out when it drops below freezing, the mighty viper becomes a needy little cuddle addict.

Hundreds of the fuckers, all cramming into the same hole in the ground like it’s the last pub open before lockdown. “Don’t mind me, Gary, just slithering over your face—purely for survival.”

Personally, i prefer the word 'deliberately', however I can begrudgingly accept that languages evolve, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. :)

I've also noticed the kids today commonly say, 'search it up', instead of 'search for it'.
