    That's a really, really old rule in FIS Big Air - the two counting jumps must be of a different direction (depending on the competition, either clockwise / counterclockwise or having every variation of forward/switch or goofy/regular and clockwise/anticlockwise/straight count as a unique direction).
     
    That is what the A, B and sometimes C on the result list refer to - not which direction (sadly that's not listed), but whether the jump is a repeated direction or not.

    I am going to use this as evidence for my belief that the only way for baseball to continue growing is to increase the importance of International tournaments.
     
    Because shocassing stars in those environments is how the MLB can grow their viewership abroad.

    By this results San Marino is possible to play a qualifiying play-off to 2026 World Cup. If the favorits from pot 1 and 2 will finish 1st and/or 2nd in their qualifiying groups then North Macedonia, Northern Ireland, Moldova and San Marino will play a two rounds of single-match play-offs. So the last team in FIFA ranking could play a world cup qualifying play-off, that's absolutely insane

    Can't think of anything more efficient than creating a department on government efficiency and nominating not one but two people to lead it.
     
    This has really strong "giving the two most annoying people you know busywork" energy

    Will be strange watching the World Cup without the Gow's. They were kinda the last echo of the Vancouver 2010 funding boom.

    It's too bad, by 2014 and 2015 the program was really solid and if we had kept even moderate funding could have been a top 5-8 nation. Sadly, the money was long gone by then, and those athletes started peeling off and we've faded back to being minnows

    People keep keep saying that Trump is Hitler reincarnated, but all these Day 1 proposals are sensible & unifying.

    People saying Trump didn't actually win these elections are just as annoying and dumb as the people who said Trump actually won the 2020 elections, yes, we agree on that. I still have hope this time it won't turn into an attempted coup, though.

    And TikTok very much shows you what keeps you engaged, if you're seeing election denial videos on it... well it says a lot about the kind of content you like to watch.

    Lots of people do though. They may be unhappy with it, but I don't see anybody physically attacking the centre of power just yet. Four years ago, that's when we really saw people genuinely refusing to accept the result en masse. This time even the losing candidate, as they should, conceded shortly after the election. Which should obviously be normal, but last time that happened was already 8 years ago.

    It’s always kind of fascinating to me the extend to which MAGAs hate around half of the country.
     
    Not that this current doesn’t also exist on the left, but ya know, just seems like an odd posture to take for someone who claims to be a patriot.
     
    Unfortunatly I don’t have any tears to donate because I’ve never cried over politics, the only times I’ve cried as an adult were when my dad died and when I was divorcing my ex. The extend to which I don’t cry is actually a bit unhealthy and I’m working on it!
     
    Anyway, Stitch is super queer and neurodivergent coded, and he’s an illegal alien living in a deep blue state, so he probably voted for Harris. He can give you some tears on my behalf.
