![]() As the game ended, though, the teenager embarked on a plan. Instead, they found reasonably-priced tickets for the bronze-medal game. She wanted to see the gold-medal game at the world junior championship earlier this year, but her parents were not going to spend the $1,000 needed to get inside the building. It was from a father in Halifax, writing to tell a story about his hockey-loving 14-year-old daughter. Friedman called the listener, who then reached out with a direct message on Twitter: “I just talked to someone who I think was you for 20 minutes, can I just check that is really you?”ĭelic described another note that did not really fit into any category. There have been times, Friedman said, when he has either returned the email directly or called the listener to chat in person on the phone. It has been in its current form for the better part of a decade.Ģ0 Questions with Jeff Marek: On burying Harold Ballard, mixing sports with politics, and a creepy dollĭelic sorts through the criticism that lands in “The Thought Line,” and passes some of it along. Those ideas congealed into a notebook-type column at the CBC, and also at National Post, which held a content-sharing agreement with the public broadcaster for a brief period around 2010. A producer suggested Friedman begin writing as a means to house tidbits that would otherwise live only in his notebook. Inevitably, through the developments within the game that night, not all of the nuggets would make it to air. Friedman was working as a sideline reporter with “Hockey Night in Canada,” and would present a list of nuggets and ideas to the production team before the show went to air. The concept that became “32 Thoughts” was hatched more than a decade ago. “Because you don’t know who you’re talking to, right?” “Those are the ones that really hit you,” said Marek. The mother wrote in to say her young son was hockey-obsessed, and that they listened to the podcast during many of the endless drives to practices and games and tournaments during the season. It was from a family going through a divorce. ![]() Marek chuckled: “I just like the title ‘The Cup of Hope.’”Īnother message was more personal. 1 pick in the draft, along with various financial incentives. One of his personal favourites was a listener who proposed the NHL adopt what they called “The Cup of Hope,” which would be a tournament for the teams that did not qualify for the playoffs. They can be silly, he said, but they can also be poignant or thought-provoking. The voices and messages that appear on “32 Thoughts” have already been vetted, he said, but that does not diminish their value. We’ve probably been over-poured by that damned bartender and we’re going to let someone know our opinions.’ “They’re driving home and, ‘We’re going to call the local radio station and we’ve got something to say, dammit. “The clubs had just let out,” said Marek. “The only thing that I kind of don’t like about it - that I did like about taking calls - is the element of surprise,” said Marek. (There are two shows a week during the regular season, but production is being bumped up to three through the rest of the NHL playoffs.) In a crowded landscape - with legacy brands (“OverDrive,” at TSN) and independents (“The Steve Dangle Podcast”) - it routinely ranks among top sports podcasts in Canada, according to data from Chartable.ĭelic said the episode featuring the listener feedback, which appears on Monday, usually has both the most engagement and the highest completion rate. As sports talk moves into the digital space, the segment is an evolution of an ancient terrestrial radio practice: The listener call-in.Ī Sportsnet spokesperson said “32 Thoughts” averages 331,000 downloads a week, which translates to about 1.3 million downloads a month. (Why not, as one email went, have players use a wooden stick for a game?)ĭelic, who works with hosts Elliotte Friedman and Jeff Marek, sifts through the email and voicemail sent to what they call “The Thought Line,” then filters the most interesting toward a recurring segment that has become a staple of the show. Listeners often ask about the salary cap and rules around the game, but they have also discussed their PhD theses and offered ideas on how to make the game more entertaining. There are notes from Europe and Australia and the Philippines. During the busy periods of the season - the NHL trade deadline, the all-star break and playoffs - he said the show can receive up to 400 emails and 60 voicemails a week. As overseer of “32 Thoughts,” the Sportsnet hockey podcast, producer Amil Delic is also curator of an eclectic mix of listener feedback.

![]() This is a case that's designed to take a beating, and it's rated for 6-foot drop protection. That's where Zagg's Rugged Book Go comes in. While most iPad keyboard cases will offer protection against scuffs and scrapes, sometimes more is needed if you're constantly carrying your iPad. It's also a standalone keyboard that doesn't attach directly to your iPad, so while it's OK if you plan to settle in and write in a coffee shop, it could be better for use on the go. Since Logitech doesn't want to make any assumptions about what you'll be using the K380 with, many of the keys have multiple labels to represent their different functions on iOS, Android, macOS, and Windows, making it look cluttered and potentially confusing. The multi-device compatibility also has a downside. The modern round keys lean more toward form than function, which can take some time, especially when combined with the relatively narrow pitch. However, Logitech promises that the included pair of AAA alkaline batteries will last up to two years before needing replacement. For instance, it doesn't have a rechargeable battery on most pricier wireless keyboards. Logitech has had to cut a few corners to produce a keyboard at this price. With the ability to switch between up to three different devices, you'll be able to use it not only with your iPad Pro but also your Mac or Windows PC, an iPhone or Android smartphone, or a game console-anything that can handle a Bluetooth keyboard. While Logitech's K380 isn't an iPad-specific keyboard, its wallet-friendly price and multi-device compatibility make it a great budget pick for anybody who wants an affordable yet versatile keyboard. Type: Membrane | Connectivity: Bluetooth | RGB: No | Tenkeys: No | Palm Rest: No | Media Controls: Yes The thoughtful space-saving design makes it an excellent pick for using on the go since the front cover folds back to form the stand, minimizing its footprint, so it sits comfortably in your lap while typing. The Slim Folio Pro is also one of the most versatile keyboard cases we've used, allowing you to switch between typing, drawing, sketching, and reading with minimum hassle. ![]() When not used, this automatically preserves battery life, so there's no need for a power button. It pairs up with your iPad Pro as a standard Bluetooth keyboard and features a magnetic dock that holds it upright while doubling as a power switch. Logitech's solid scissor-switch keyboard design offers responsive keys, letting you type comfortably for hours without fatigue. Logitech's Slim Folio Pro checks all of these boxes quite well, but that's not surprising, considering it has been doing this since the iPad 2. While finding the best iPad Pro keyboard case can be tricky, the ideal one should balance offering solid protection, ease of use, versatility, price, and a great typing experience. ![]() It’s similar to Plex in many ways, but somewhat more customizable.

Best Linux Media Server Software Option Overall – Plex ![]() To build a media server, you’ll need some sort of server or computer, whether a dedicated NAS, an old laptop, or even a Raspberry Pi. Then, you can point your server software to those files and access them from virtually anywhere. And using legal torrent sites, it’s even possible to find loads of free movies, shows, or albums to download. Using DVD or Blu-ray ripping software, you can create digital backups of your film and TV show collection, or rip your CDs and vinyl records. And it’s incredibly beneficial for physical media buffs. It’s an ideal set up because you own the content so it’s available at any time and doesn’t vanish at any time. That’s then available on your home network, and outside of it provided that you make a few tweaks.īy using media server programs, you can stream your video and music library to a number of client devices such as phones and tablets, smart TVs, game consoles, set-top boxes, and computers. Then, using a home server or network-attached storage (NAS) device, you can house your media library in one convenient location.

What is a Media Server and Why Should You Build One?Ī home media server may be thought of as a sort of as a do-it-yourself (DIY) Netflix or Spotify. With a media server, you can make your own Netflix or Spotify style experience. But the trade-off for DVDs and Blu-rays is that you don’t have a massive content repository available from anywhere at the click of a button or touch of a screen. Plus, you don’t actually own any of the content on streaming platforms. ![]() While streaming services like Netflix and Hulu are great, physical media offers a tangible experience. ![]() As Al Calavicci’s daughter who was denied the opportunity to work in the rebooted Quantum Leap program (citing her emotional connection) and who then conspired with Ben to make that unauthorized leap, her backstory was intriguing.

![]() The Japanese retailer's primo underwear is a steal no matter how you prefer ‘em, but the best bang for your buck option is its AIRism boxer briefs. ![]() So what's a frugal-minded skivvies-wearer to do? Head to Uniqlo, of course. We hate to compromise on anything as essential as underwear, but we're also big fans of saving money. Materials: 89% polyester, 11% spandex Sizes: S-3XL Colors: Grey Unlike briefs, boxer shorts don't cling to your body their free-flowing silhouette lets your boys hang out unimpeded like Mother Nature intended. More Boxer Shorts We Loveīefore boxer briefs came along boxer shorts were the default, and for those of us who prefer a healthy breeze around our nether regions they're a godsend. On top of all that, the waistband also comes equipped with a clever hit of elastic that ensures they lay flat across the front for a clean finish. But the real X factor is the functional fly, a rarity in the button closure-dominated boxer shorts space, making access easier in times of, ahem, urgency. For one, the brand's classic-fit boxers are cut from the same type of lightweight, woven cotton it uses in its button-ups, and the relaxed fit offers ample room to stretch around in. Plenty of big-name brands offer a riff on the staple, but Ralph Lauren's remains one of our favorites for a few reasons. Materials: 100% cotton Sizes: S-XXL Fly: Functional, open Colors: Variesīoxer briefs may dominate underwear drawers around the world, but there are scores of dudes who remain staunch boxer shorts devotees-and would happily trade support for a little extra air flow. (In this case, the security and support of tighty-whities and the coverage of boxer shorts.) Say less. Like the polo shirt or the loafer, they're hybrids that pull the best characteristics of multiple garments by wrapping them in one shiny package that's more than the sum of its parts. More Boxer Briefs We Loveīoxer briefs are the reigning champ of the men's underwear circuit. Add to that a super soft cotton blend with just the right amount of stretchy elastane, a waistband that's equal parts robust and comfy, and a price (for two pairs!) that's tough to beat, and you get an iconic pair of trunks that won't be relinquishing its throne anytime soon. Cue the now-standard-issue below-the-navel stance, the wider waistbands (and yes, the logos on those waistbands), and the idea that underwear should show off your goods, not hide them. started cutting them the way guys wanted to wear their underwear in the first place (read: not at their belly button). Plenty of it had to do with those ads, but most of the change happened because Klein and Co. The American designer's foray into men's undergarments turned them from something guys had to wear to something they wanted to wear (and okay, yes, still had to), and maybe even wanted to show off. The best men's underwear that covers all the bases we just listed above? It still comes from the brand that changed the men's underwear game in the first place: Calvin Klein. Materials: 95% cotton, 5% spandex Sizes: S-XL Inseam: 4" Fly: Functional side Colors and Patterns: Varies The Best Old-School Underwear: Sunspel Superfine Cotton Trunks, $50.The Best Confidence-Boosting Underwear: CDLP Boxer Briefs, $35.The Best Underwear for Hitting the Gym: Lululemon Always In Motion Boxer, $28.The Best Budget Underwear: Uniqlo AIRism Boxer Briefs, $15.The Best Boxers: Polo Ralph Lauren Classic Fit Boxer (3-pack), $45.The Best Boxer Trunks: Calvin Klein Cotton Stretch Low Rise Trunk (3-pack), $29. ![]() The Best Boxer Briefs: Calvin Klein Cotton Stretch Boxer Briefs (3-pack), $43. ![]() (Ain’t nobody got time for bunching and chafing!) It's for those very reasons that we firmly believe that you (yes, you) should spend a few extra dollars on top-quality skivvies when re-stocking your underwear drawer. More than you know, the wrong pair could throw off your whole day-or worse, your whole fit. Underwear is the first thing you put on, the last thing you take off, and the one garment that gets closer than any other to your, uh, prized possessions. If you’re trying to build a great wardrobe, your first step needs to be finding the very best underwear for men. ![]() ■ R for raising taxes, which studies have shown is the single most effective way to reduce smoking in the population, especially among teens.

![]() SPAM/LOW EFFORT CONTENT Frequently (re)posted questions/content that serve to karma farm, mislead, troll or inspire rage inducing threads, are Spam.But in PvE, certain adds are particularly tanky and small and thus will not absorb all of the dmg markers.Įdit: Please note that the dmg distribution is Gaussian, with the most dmg being concentrated at the center. ![]() As such, BR is still nice because it allows you to cast a wider dmg net. In PvP, diminishing the dmg of each element (or piece) of the explosion matters not because it will still likely kill a player. If you're firing at a group of adds, each add will see less dmg. If the target is huge, like a Taken Blight, the target will take the same amount of dmg irrespective of BR because it will eat all of the dmg markers. This means that a larger BR will mean the same impact distributed over a larger area. AoE damage is proportional to the ratio of Impact to pi*BR 2. Blast Radius (BR) is literally the radius of the blast. The ratio of these 2 things is the "blast radius" stat we all see. Time to aim, reload speed, velocity, etc. Lower blast radius = more direct impact damage and less AoE damage = good for boss damage (damage is localized) Higher blast radius = less direct impact damage and more AoE damage = good for ad clearing (damage is spread out) The difference is how that damage is distributed between 'direct hit' and 'damage over an area' (AoE). Summary: Heavy grenade launchers each have the same damage output per round. This will explain why you may have experienced large variations with GL's.įirst, all credit goes to u/TuxedoSt3v3 for his answer to my grenade launcher post: Who finally got a PS4? Norsefenrir!

Eventually the abnormalities will become one classification. The later you get in the game, the more the classes become easier and easier, both because of the increase amount of staff and knowledge of management and suppression. Resistances that can resist the damages are generally 0.5 or HIGHER at a WAW or ALEPH class. These are the worst of the worst and the strongest abnormalities in all of LC requiring the highest level of Staff you could find in order to handle and contain these creatures. These abnormalities have the highest kill counts of staff and if not contained correctly, can snowball leading to a game over situation. ALEPH: If you leave these abnormalities alone in a box, they will escape their prison and incinerate everything around them.Resistances that can resist the damages are generally 0.6 or above. These abnormalities also have more complex methods or harder suppressions then their HE and TETH counterparts that have similar effects. These abnormalities need high levels of attention and staff of the correct level to at least make a dent in caring and containing the abnormalities. Sending an employee into these containment rooms could be super risky as failing to make the requirements could cause high levels of death, of not just the employee but of the staff as well. These abnormalities need moderate attention and staff of decent level to be able to handle the threat of the creature or its ability. If handled poorly, these abnormalities could kill several employees under your nose. HE: Sending an employee into these containment rooms could be very risky as they will sometimes activate an ability or cause higher levels of physical and/or mental corrosion.These abnormalities need low attention and staff of low level can handle and contain the creatures and their abilities. Sending an employee into these containment rooms might cause some mental or physical damage, but nothing serious. TETH: If you leave these abnormalities in a box with nothing in it, the abnormality will probably leave containment, activate an ability and/or nothing will happen.They also provide very positive effects to the facility like healing staff. ![]() ![]() These are abnormalities that can be ignored, possesses close to no harmfully effects and/or no casualties needed to research the abnormality. ZAYIN: If you leave these abnormalities in a box with nothing in it, the abnormality will probably do nothing.Depending on the classification level, the abnormality will require specific armor and level requirements to counter its damage and effects. Each abnormality is classed with a rank (ZAYIN, TETH, HE, WAW and ALEPH). |
