In my teens, we were given vitamin water after sports games thanks to corporate donations. Most HS players lived off that.

Yay for-profit schools on poor urban neighborhoods.

Still deleted for me.

I shared the direct link, which is unlisted.

If you visit that subreddit, you will not be able to see it/won't exist anywhere without that direct link

Chess grandmaster Magnus Carlsen rejoins tournament he quit over wearing jeans - after dress code change in c/news@lemmy.world
[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 35 points 2 months ago (7 children)

If you're not familiar with the background

"Today, Mr. Magnus Carlsen breached the dress code by wearing jeans, which are explicitly prohibited under long-standing regulations for this event.

"The Chief Arbiter informed Mr. Carlsen of the breach, issued a $200 fine, and requested that he change his attire. Unfortunately, Mr. Carlsen declined, and as a result, he was not paired for round nine. This decision was made impartially and applies equally to all players.

"Earlier in the day, another participant, Mr. Ian Nepomniachtchi, was also fined for breaching the dress code by wearing sports shoes. However, Mr. Nepomniachtchi complied, changed into approved attire, and continued to play in the tournament.

My wife and I. We always talk non-stop about everything non-stop.

I have a habit of saying really wrong things. Maybe it's ignorance or maybe it's because I read something stupid off the internet. And she just accepts it in the moment and gently corrects me later.

To have that, you need people you actually trust.

Elon musk trusts no one. His circle is a bunch of yes men who have willingly sold their soul to agree with whatever crazy shit Musk wants.

Musk is smart enough to know that. While also not smart enough to build a team he fully trusts.

Man, I grew up in a household where my parents celebrated that I didn't join a gang. They flexed how their son wasn't in jail to the other families.

Hood mentality.
