Why does everything, and I mean everything, have to be terrible now

No shade to you, OP, that's cute

Who are we rooting for? I'm from the U.S., there are some players I'm hoping do well but no love for the team. Finland is scrappy as hell. It would be kind of great if they pulled out a win tonight.

Edit: I posted this during the 2nd intermission, when the score was only 2-1. Womp womp.

Timeless question (beehaw.org)

My team isn't doing so well this season. One of our commentators just posed a question that we've probably all asked: "What is it going to take for them to A) learn a lesson, or B) wake up??"

Hi all, I am one year into my coding journey and could use a little guidance on a project. I have created a Python program that provides real-time hockey stats and game information, using API calls (documentation here: https://github.com/Zmalski/NHL-API-Reference). The code is working, and it's really fun to see stats updating in real time as I'm watching my favorite sport. Just one problem: this is all happening in the terminal window 😆 What Python library would you recommend for creating a pleasing visual display for dynamically-generated data? I thought it might be Pygame, which I have some experience with, but now I'm not sure. Right now I'm only presenting text and numbers, not drawing any plots, but should I consider matplotlib? Thanks for any advice!

Edit: I think the term for what I'm trying to make is a "dashboard"? Is that correct, and does that help answer the question? Thanks y'all!

Still not convinced it's the guy. Luigi taking the fall while Mario walks free, a tale as old as time

Is anyone else having problems with the Feeld app on GrapheneOS? I'm in an urban area and have set my filters wide (100 miles), but see nothing when I open the app.

Update: I think this might be the issue: https://grapheneos.org/articles/attestation-compatibility-guide I contacted Feeld support and they said they're looking into it.

I find this argument compelling:

"We have a physiological need for privacy. Mammals in particular respond poorly to surveillance. We consider it a threat because animals in the wild are tracked by predators, and it makes us feel like prey."

I realize this is an absolutely unhinged thing to ask for: Can anyone direct me to a large database of company names with websites (just those two columns), ideally 100K rows or more, that I can access for free? Basically this database if it had another column with the company name: https://github.com/cygenta/top10million (but doesn't need to be anywhere near 10 million)

I have such a love/hate relationship with Stardew Valley, slightly less so with My Time At Portia (the developers seem to have at least considered wrist strain in the button layout and mechanics). I long for a moneyless, classless game in this genre where the incentives are community thriving, trust, pleasure, and all the other aspects that make life worth worth living outside of capitalism. Does that game exist?

Assuming a cylinder shape, that's approximately 160 cubic inches of penis?

Specifically Paris and London. There are U.S. sports-themed bars in both cities, but with the time difference, the bars will be closed by the times the games start. I'm willing to pay, get a VPN, and/or go to a sketchy streaming site. Any suggestions? Thanks hockey fam!

Does anyone know, or can anyone guess, the business case for predictive text? On phone apps, it is often incredibly difficult to turn off. Why is that, do you think? (The examples I have recent experience with are Facebook and Outlook mobile apps.)

I would have thought that, for AI training purposes, they would want humans typing things and not just regurgitating canned responses. But apparently not?

Put it on GitHub and some tryhard will do a bunch of free work on it. Source: am tryhard
