@tomdoyo The best pitchers absolutely do not throw anywhere close to 90% strikes, there's no conventional wisdom that says they do, there are no stats that say they do, and a decent percentage of those strikes are out of the zone anyway.
@treswritesstuff Why would you "love for this to be true." Why do so many people want to fight against all logic and evidence to see the most interesting player we've ever seen run out of the game?
@itsburgan@JeffPassan Did any of you imbeciles even watch the trailer?
This is a sober examination of a now ubiquitous tool from a skeptic's point of view, not a commercial. The trailer even highlights how it's being foisted upon us whether we want it or not.
@Luther__ML@news12dabronx His BABip in his last season was .286 across 429 ABs, literally exactly the same as his career BABip, and it was an offensively productive season. He didn't "quickly become washed" because of the shift, he stopped hitting the ball as hard his last few years and retired.
@faceuh8 I saw him live in 2010 and also remember seeing a clip of him and Gilmour hugging it out (or at least showing each other warmth) from around the same time, really thought he had mellowed out then but obviously not.
@MAGA_Dad00@uckema That B52 pilot called one of his previous aircrews "pussies" for complaining about his recklessness, continued to fly recklessly without consequence and then killed himself and 3 people with reckless flying. You really don't know anything.
@thisistheway035@ian_tb03 If he had been grounded as a result of previous infractions, then a smarter, more responsible pilot likely would have been flying and not flown the airframe past its limitations.
@thisistheway035@ian_tb03 It was caused by a pilot with a long history of reckless flying and violations of regulations, including low altitude passes on flyovers, which largely went without formal punishment. His attitude and the attitude of his superiors were huge factors, as cited by the accident board
See, THIS is my favorite ODYSSEY backlash because it’s not *remotely* true, it’s just idiocy regurgitated by people who think Elon Musk knows what he’s talking g about.
@PATH_Guy@SlopHq I see a bunch of "PHOTO ENFORCED" speed limit signs but either way if you just go 30 generally and slow down to 20 when you see a school sign you'll basically never get a ticket.
@CaptGMon3y@CameronCorduroy You are an a moron if you think this isn't mostly going to just increase the use of fossil fuels, which Trump has endlessly endorsed.
Elon Musk is the richest person in the world. He has an effectively infinite budget for hiring researchers and fact-checkers. And yet like 50% of his utterances on here are horseshit. Please read this thread to understand how time-consuming it is to debunk them.
Really helpless feeling about where we're at. There's a historic (by American standards) level of corruption and looting going on right now and the party that could stop it is fine with it. And since it is cult of personality his supporters cheer it!
