@joeylynchy @TheAFCCL What happens if Heidelberg don't meet all AFC club licencing requirements?

Newcastle’s draw with Adelaide guarantees that the Jets cannot finish below an Australian-based A-League Men side this season, securing them an @TheAFCCL Elite place. That renders Heidelberg as Australia’s ACL2 representative elect - contingent on securing a licence to compete.

@colecameron @GearoidReidy Yes. But only if you plan traveling more than just Tokyo to Osaka/Kyoto. Got a 21 day green class pass in 2017 for about ¥70000. Probably got about ¥60-700000 value out of it. That did include some quite long shinkansen rides that would have made more sense to fly if not on pass

@GearoidReidy Have these ever been worth it? To me you’d have to be doing a heck of a lot of train travel to justify the cost.

Remember when they raised the prices in 2023 for the first time in decades and this entire site said it would be a total failure and no one would ever buy it again

@88888sAccount Would probably collect more taking it wreckers or parting it out.

@TommiPedruzzi Scam

This is Gaurav. IT guy. Dad. Wanted time with his daughter while she's still young. Made $4,000 last month selling eBooks on Amazon. But when he started, he had: • No writing background • No publishing experience • Doubt that it might not work Month 1: $400 in the red. Month 2: $600 in the red. Month 3: first profit, $200. December: $4,000 net. January: $2,200 net. He didn't do anything extra. Just followed my system rigorously. Amazon distributed the books automatically. 24% of his royalties came from Canada alone. He's got 10 books live. Three of them do most of the heavy lifting. If you want the breakdown of how it works: Like this post Comment "BOOKS" I'll send you the full strategy privately, no cost. (Make sure you're following so I can DM you.) ⏳ First 500 comments only.

@eevblog I know people who will order the same item from Amazon and Temu. Use Amazon item when it arrives, lodge a return with Amazon once Temu version turns up. You need to sell items with a point of difference.

As a seller on Amazon, the return rate is crazy. What do people do, buy a multimeter, measure something and then return it?

@AndrewBrownAU Honestly feels a bit odd watching it during the day.

Watching F1 qualifying in daylight time in the correct time zone is truly a luxury. All of the European/American fans complaining about having to wake up early for 1 race have no clue how good they have it #AustralianGP

Back of the grid for Max Verstappen #F1

@matcoch Does F1 lose out on broadcast revenue if number of races reduces?

Any replacement event likely offers no hosting fee while adding logistics/freight costs to teams. There's no incentive in it. Likely outcome is Bahrain/Saudi cancelled without replacements, making for a 22 event season. #F1 Full story: planetf1.com/features/f1-wh… 3/3

No announcement on the Bahrain/Saudi situation doesn't mean no action. There are lots of conversations taking place. The decision will be linked to freight, much of it from China is meant to go to Bahrain via boat. #F1 1/3

@me_dc Macau

The reasons why Las Vegas and Magic Round work is because there are a shitload of hotels and a central strip to party on, yeah? Not sure where else you could do that TBH.

@matcoch Don't think the early season middle eastern races will be happening when they should. Either out this year or delayed until backend of the season.

This is about 1km from where I stayed during the Bahrain test, and is in the area much of the F1 circus will be staying in for the Bahrain GP in six weeks time. Watch this space. #F1

@CacheThatCheque More buses that cater to where tourists are going would better. Obviously charging a premium for those too, but not too much of a premium that makes tourists not want to use them

This needs to happen. Not sure how this will work in practice but Kyoto these days feels like a gaijin Disneyland. The subway system is nonexistent and the buses are completely overwhelmed.

@stalshek @jd_sauvage How do you think they are funding all the GPUs (apart from the circular financing)

@jd_sauvage If I were SEC, I'd be looking real close at Anthropic; an unsubstantiated press-release by a private company can shift the stock market to the tune of $30 billion dollars. Don't tell me the situation isn't rife for fraud or manipulation.

If you let large autocomplete touch your business critical COBOL, you fucking deserve what happens next.

@jameypricephoto Dorna are being stupid with this. Maybe they should consider moving the Australian MotoGP to Mount Panorama instead. Just as stupid an idea as Adelaide Street Circuit.

Adelaide is an AMAZINGGGG street circuit………for car racing. Putting MotoGP bikes on it? 🫠 I’ve covered Macau GP several times. And I’ve been there when riders have died and been seriously hurt. Not worth it.

Absolute fuckup from Race Control there! That could have easily been avoided with SC. Wasn't like it wasn't obvious either #Bathurst12h

@bowtiedstocks Paramount+ has 50% yearly subscription every second month

If you’re a TV streamer… Hope you got a good wheelbarrow™️

@israel_ajoje You've also generally got to include the payouts for the backroom coaching team of said headcoach

Nottingham Forest have just sacked Sean Dyche — their THIRD manager this season. Nottingham Forest Just Paid £14 Million to NOT Have Managers. Let That Sink In. Quick read for you. A coach's contract can be terminated with just cause with no (or minimal) compensation if there's a serious, unreasonable breach that makes continuation impossible in good faith. Think misconduct, persistent material breaches, or abusive conduct. But here's the thing: poor results alone rarely qualify as just cause. You can't just sack a manager for losing a few games and avoid paying them. Without just cause, which is how most sackings happen, the club can still terminate, but they must pay compensation. Usually the remaining contract value, a pre-agreed severance, or a negotiated settlement. No sporting sanctions typically apply to coaches, unlike players. And that's expensive. Nottingham Forest have spent roughly £10 to 14 million on managerial terminations in the last year alone (2025–26 season). Around £6 million for Nuno Espírito Santo. Around £3.5 million for Ange Postecoglou. And an estimated £4 to 6 million plus for Sean Dyche, whose contract ran to 2027 at roughly £3.9 million per year. The exact Dyche figure is still pending. Think about this. Firing coaches in football is hard. Because unless the manager has committed gross misconduct or walked out on unpaid wages, you're paying them to leave. Every single time.

@cyber_razz Non-binary RAM Dimms also appear to be slightly cheaper per GB at the moment. May have been cheaper for 2x24GB than 2x16GB

A PC that was advertised with 32GB RAM arrived with 48GB, and everyone immediately assumed it was a mistake. However, there’s a possibility that this isn’t the case. Many prebuilt systems are marketed with a base configuration of 32GB RAM, but sellers often add extra RAM discreetly for various reasons: - Leftover stock - Small performance upgrades - Mixed DIMMs (2×16 + 2×8 = 48GB) - Bundles that aren’t reflected in the listing It’s important to note that marketing pages often lag behind actual builds. As long as the system boots properly, runs smoothly, and the RAM is compatible in terms of speed and timings, there’s nothing inherently wrong with this situation. It’s not uncommon to encounter this scenario. It’s not a sign of fraud. It’s simply a reflection of how prebuilt systems and inventory management work. It be like that sometimes, or hey they might have simply gotten “lucky”.

@itsdanibrown It was played last year.

Is the Australia v England women’s cricket series no longer going ahead? I haven’t heard anything about it being cancelled, just went to buy tickets for the T20 that was meant to be played in Adelaide Oval today and can’t find anywhere to buy tickets 🤔

@Jacob01Aus @RiggallNicholas No it's not. Been plenty before that.

@RiggallNicholas First ever transfer fee we paid. Absolutely mental

JCP would be a huge upgrade on Bility if he is happy to play as a CB.

@fossilfuelfade @Jacob01Aus Nick Green was Coach when we last played there.

@Jacob01Aus Lol. Probably caught out with the move to Redcliffe. Brisbane haven't played there since Warren Moon was coach, right?

If Wellington turn up to Suncorp do we get the 3 points?
