Matig begin van het seizoen en wat een raar verhaal met van Polen. Wat is daar precies gebeurt? Aan wiens kant staan de fans?
Not American so perhaps I'm missing something, but doesn't it make sense tips are taxed? It's income, so why wouldn't it be?
Wat een gekke avond. Gelukkig loopt het voor Ajax goed af maar echt totaal aan jezelf te danken dat het zover komt.
Pasveer een held. Brobbey moet geen penalty's meer nemen.
The one in the middle has its eye open
I find it so strange the US still has the death penalty and to read people on lemmy advocate for it surprisingly frequently, despite its rather progressive user base.
I just gave an example of running where it was about pushing, not if someone crossed a line. They even changed their decision after an appeal when other people looked at the same situation again.
And sports like football or hockey... Have you ever watched those sports? There are subjective calls all the time. It's objective criteria, but a human still has to interpret things like handball, which depends on if your arm is in an "unnatural position" or not. Those are largely subjective decisions and there is controversy around them all the time.
With breakdancing they are of course also judging specific criteria:
The winner is determined by a panel of judges, who score each performance based on five criteria each worth a fifth of the point maximum
It's really not that different.
Running has judges. Just the other day in the women's 1500m (I think) a woman was initially disqualified for pushing someone. She appealed and the decision was reversed. It's all about interpretation and subjectivity.
I can't think of any sport that doesn't have a judge or referee that has to subjectively interpret athlete's actions and the sport's rules.
In the Netherlands we have this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numbered-node_cycle_network
That works super well cause you can just follow the numbers. You can have those on a piece of paper if you need, or memorize the intersections where you need do something else besides following the next numbered node (so for example you go 25-26-27-28-51). You can just remember to keep following the next one until you need to go to 51.
Normal street signs look like this: Verkeersborden in Nederland https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/File%3ANederlands_verkeersbord_K7.svg
The color scheme indicates it's for cyclists. For motorized vehicles they're blue with white letters. In cities there are also signs for pedestrians which are black with white letters.
And there are also these for cyclists, in rural areas: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Padstool_%28signage%29
If you prefer the hockey shootout over penalties in football, better get a time machine (and an airplane perhaps) and go watch the MLS in the 90s: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNExAtWu0CU
Holy fuck wat een einde. Had weinig hoop de laatste 30 seconde. Alsnog overtime gehaald en dan op zo'n manier winnen, geweldig gewoon
Pff wat een gedoe. Inderdaad niet chique om hier op TV over te gaan praten. Als je echt zoveel clubliefde hebt dan zou je het wel binnenskamers willen houden.
