Serbian basketball fans are something else🔥 #kkcz #kkpartizan

@erennocaak The ticket have not been sold out, in fact. They're on the brink of losing their famous soldout streak due to high prices.

Zalgiris, yarınki maç için tüm salona yeşil tişört dağıttı. Biletler de tamamen tükenmiş durumda. Çok zor bir deplasman olacak. İlk iki maçta kötü şut attılar; evet bir çoğunu biz zorlaştırdık ama boşları da kaçırdılar. Kendi sahalarında, taraftarın itişiyle o şutları daha yüksek yüzdeyle sokabilirler. Play off’a kadar ligin en yüzdeli üçlük atan takımlarından birisi olduğunu unutmayalım Zalgiris’in. O yüzden seride kalmak için her şeyi yapacaklar. Bizim yapmamız gereken sakin kalıp, oyunu kontrol edip fişi çekmek.

Chris Silva is practicing before the EuroLeague playoff game vs. Zalgiris. To me, he seems ok.

Maccabi right now

@kvistp The EU will be deeply concerned. As always.

Imagine if Ukraine had kidnapped several Hungarian bank employees, seized their money and then used them for extortion to get weapons... Is Europe just gonna sit by and watch this Hungarian gangster government do this?

@point_of_viewx @TheMindScourge (describes Germans strictly following rules without thinking about the situation)

@the_mindaugas @TheMindScourge The initial post was not about Germans following the rules dummy, the Lufthansa passengers were abandoned because Germans take their work life balance seriously and staff were not ready to return back and work during their off-hours. It has nothing to do with following rules

There was a famous scandal in imperial Germany, just before the First World War, where a man pretended to be an officer (he got his uniform from costume shops and the like), commandeered a unit of German soldiers, had them arrest a city mayor, and made off with 4000 marks from the city treasury No one questioned him because he was in a position of authority. The Kaiser had a good sense of humor about it and pardoned him Clearly this spirit lives on

@point_of_viewx @TheMindScourge It's about Germans blindly following rules without ever thinking. Some bloke says we have to kidnap somebody? Let's go. Passengers left stranded, but my work hours are done? They'll manage.

@TheMindScourge Both have absolutely no relation. Simply posting just any story to get engagement 😂

With the passing of Robert Duvall, let's remember this absolute gem

@Deji_mide infant ball knowledge

Foden prevented what could have been the greatest initials ever seen.

@LevAkabas We kind of knew this about Jokic. Gobert is the standout here.

No NBA player has more assists than Trae Young in the 2020s so far

@NalinisKitchen Or just cross a border between two time zones, eg. Spain and Portugal.

If you want to celebrate the New Year twice, - Go to Auckland, New Zealand. - Celebrate the New Year in New Zealand on 1 January at 12 AM and enjoy the night. - Take a flight from New Zealand to Honolulu at 7 AM. - You will reach Honolulu on 31 December at 5 PM. - Now you can celebrate 1 January again in Honolulu.

@cessonmute These men are buried deep in the friend zone.

for any women that need to hear this. there are loving men out there. there are men who will sit and listen to you while you talk about something that bothered you. there are men out there that will take accountability and apologize. who can be aware of their behavior and how it affected you. men that you can grow with. men that will make you feel appreciated. you don't have to go through years of trauma with a man who doesn't know how to communicate and has no emotional intelligence. you are worthy of healthy love. and it is out there i promise you

@KeithSmithNBA This is in fact a very American tweet.

I saw this live and wasn't sure what to think at first. Then I saw and heard that the fans were into it. The players seemed into it too and having fun. So, I loved this! Stuff that becomes a team tradition always seems a little weird and corny at first, but ends up being awesome.

@FentMcDuffie that's true about pretty much all modern architecture

They all look the fucking same man no character

@esjesjesj why do they have to do one of my favorite movies like that

This is literally a perfect example of how it’s soulless

@Milos_Sphere Grigonis is cooked. His back issues are too much for him now.

Da je normalnih ljudi u već ovako nenormaloj situaciji u #kkp pa da probaju nešto recimo ovako: 1. Tajrika ponudiš Barci da preuzme ugovor, 2. Onda za tu razliku platiš 150k buyout i uzmeš Chris Silvu iz AEKa, 3. Probaš sa Oly trade Washington - Saben Lee, 4. Vanju ponudiš Baskoniji recimo, 5. Sterlinga ponudiš recimo Milanu, možda da daju Brooksa, ako ne samo ga se rešiti, 6. Pitaš PAO za Grigonisa, 7. Na Parkeru si duplo golo, samo ga se rešiti. 8. Kako si još tanak na 2/3, pitati Galatu za Palmera i tjt. Doduše ovo je baš onako iz glave, bez puno razmišljanja.

“It’s their job to clean up”

Creators should LOVE Ai. AI doesn’t make uncreative people creative. It allows creators to become exponentially more creative. Creative iteration that used to take hours , days or weeks, can happen in minutes. The different routes you wanted to take but didn’t have the money or skill to do. Now you can do. The number of gatekeepers drops every day and will eventually hit zero. If you know how to tell a great story, you will LOVE AI. 99 % of content fails. With AI the cost and time it takes to experience and learn from those failures drop like a rock. The people who should HATE AI are those that try to control distribution and the creative process because they are the ones that control platforms and tools. It’s all going to change. Only this time it won’t take decades like it did with streaming.

@csaurageul That's why Red Dead Redemption 2 is loved so much amongst gamers. Everything there is so thought out it's moving.

Video games will never be taken seriously as an art form because neither the industry nor the audience treats them as art, and the audience is the larger part of the problem. Games are treated as products to be made fast, sold loud, consumed, discarded, and replaced. That is why Call of Duty and FIFA sell in the billions, not because they endure, but because they are disposable and familiar. This has nothing to do with graphical fidelity, art style, music, voice acting, or budget, even though players insist otherwise. For most people, “artistic merit” means how flashy, pretty, and expensive a game looks. Spectacle is mistaken for depth, and production value is confused with meaning. Games are not built to be evergreen because the audience does not want evergreen. The people who revisit old titles, engage deeply with systems, or approach games patiently are a minority. Most want the new release, the hype cycle, and the spectacle, then move on as soon as something shinier appears. This is the same reason Avatar makes a billion dollars per film yet leaves almost no cultural footprint. Audiences want stimulation for a few hours, then the exit. Art requires patience and trust, and games demand both. They ask players to learn systems, accept friction, and think. The audience rejects this. Anything slow, strange, or uncomfortable is dismissed as boring or pretentious, so risk is punished not just by publishers, but by players themselves. Because of this, metrics replace meaning. Engagement time, retention, and monetisation become the measure of success, because that is what the audience rewards. Art asks what something is saying. Products ask how long you stayed logged in. Games suffer most here because their greatest strength, player agency, is treated as an inconvenience rather than an opportunity. Legacy is impossible without permission to fail, and the audience does not allow failure. A bad novel does not kill literature. A bad film does not kill cinema. A bad game can kill a studio, because players demand perfection, constant novelty, and infinite support while rejecting experimentation. So the ceiling stays low by choice. Not because games cannot be art, but because an audience trained on disposability, spectacle, and instant gratification will not tolerate sincerity, patience, or risk. What survives is not what lasts, but what sells loudly and disappears quietly.

@mollyhannahm have fans ever considered that winning is good?

have coaches ever considered that fouling up three, though objectively smart, kills the vibes

@Africkitigar @EuroLeague @kkcrvenazvezda @PartizanBC Miraculously, yes. Neverovatno, as my Serbian friends would say.

@the_mindaugas @EuroLeague @kkcrvenazvezda @PartizanBC It works now!

Let the Derby begin 😤 #RivalrySeries
