That royals 1B was one possibility.

I was waiting for someone to say Adrian Gonzalez so we could figure out if the Padres are rebuilding or not.

Three swinging strikeouts, it seems there was a sort of trend that inning, I'll figure it out in a minute.

Sean White came in for relief for Felix in very early 2007 when Felix got injured

I rolled into that game and arrived roughly 3 pitches before Felix got hurt. This will forever be my first thought when I see Sean White and the sinking feeling of sadness will be the feeling I feel whenever he comes in.

Fuck you, Sean White

and looking at BBRef, it was Jake Woods that actually came in, not White

That indicates how much I hate Sean White that I strongly associate him with that negative memory

Much better to put a pin sized hole in the top of them so the brake fluid doesn't all leak out at once

No point in destroying the brake lines so he’ll instantly realize it when he backs out of his driveway at 4 MPH, causing no damage.

Better to have him realize it when he’s going 60 down a mountain road

Quick start guide!

This off-topic thread was very helpful to me. I’ve only been here a few months, but it’s a pretty easy to follow style guide and rules of the road. Read the fanpost itself, and scroll down a bit to read a comment that was rec’d into green-ness. Both are helpful.

Neither mention fantasy baseball, but they probably should. Because it’s a generally acknowledged fact of the site. I’m new; you’re new. But it’s a great site, good community. Welcome.

Meh.

Windows 2000, XP, and 7 have been very stable operating systems and have served both my work and home environments well.

by BrianL on Jun 1, 2010 9:38 PM PDT up reply actions  

Oh sure, get all serious on me

Decent versions: XP SP2, Win Server 2003 and later, and MAYBE Win7 (I’m reserving judgement until its been out a little longer).
  
Also, OS X 10.5.6 and above; in some environments (home and a few specific business cases).

by NWade on Jun 1, 2010 9:40 PM PDT up reply actions  

I have no respect for OS X.

Slapping a user interface shell on BSD Unix is not building your own operating system.

by harkening on Jun 1, 2010 9:41 PM PDT up reply actions  

Uh...

A BSD-compatible layer =! BSD. I know people who contribute to BSD and they’d throw that one back into your teeth. BSD doesn’t have a Mach microkernel. OS X does.

Also, you might go look up Mach and where the grad student who helped develop it ended up working.

If you're running Windows, open up an instance of Firefox.

Perpetuate it with a few different tabs. Now hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and view the processes tab in your task manager. Under the memory column, watch the Firefox usage tick up and up and up and up and up in an unstoppable fashion. Bad coding does this.

Don't worry; I'm a writer.

by harkening on Jun 1, 2010 9:36 PM PDT up reply actions  

Not sure if the problem occurs on Firefox for Mac.

But that just makes me ask why you bother running Firefox. Safari is programmed natively for Mac OS X, and both are running the WebKit rendering engine.
