You would call them women. We literally have a word for female humans.

I once had a girl straight up say, "I'd do you", to which I stumbled and mumbled out nothing much in reply. I don't think I realized until about 5 years later I could have had sex that day :(

I grew up in Canada, but in a temperate climate area on the border with the US. Winter? Use Celsius. Summer? Use Fahrenheit. For me Celsius makes a lot more sense right around 0C. After about 15C my brain switches over and starts using Fahrenheit. I like the Fahrenheit scale from 60-100F for gauging the summer months. The Celsius scale isn't granular enough. It feels like there's a big difference between 18C and 22C versus the comparable 64F-72F. But I also was taught early a quick and dirty conversion. C to F, double and add 30. F to C subtract 30 and divide by 2.

Physics 'n stuff

This is going to be an incredibly important series. We're a full game out of a playoff spot, and the Mariners are on a crazy run right now. We're coming up on a so-called easy part of our schedule, but we have to stay close to the M's and the Astros in the wildcard or it's going to be tough to regain that lost ground.

Definitely a start to build off of. Extremely relieved it worked out like it did. Couldn't have asked for a better return from him.

So far so good for Manoah

Going to the game tomorrow. I have a feeling they're going to be cutting lots of onions in the building.

This paints a very clear picture for what we've already known. It's so puzzling why this lineup can't score more runs.

Holy shit Vlad murdered that baseball.

Ok, so that was scary. I hope Ward is ok. You could definitely see some swelling around his eye and cheekbone.

Absolute clutch win. Team we needed to beat, and we were able to come though, fight off the no-hit day yesterday, fight off being down in the 9th today, and beat a team we should.

First game thread made with code! Not exactly an automated bot yet, but progress!

Absolutely! Pre and post game threads are coming soon. I'm completely rewriting the bots right now to be much more modular and efficient. As soon as the rewrite is finished I will be working on pre and post game threads, as well as live updates for the game thread during games with up to date stats and scores. Stay tuned!

That is a really good point. I would love to be able to crack the active users code, but I'm not entirely sure how to entice people to contribute either. I think it's just down to the 1/9/90% thing where 1% of a community will be active users who post, comment and upvote within the community, 9/10% percent will upvote and occasionally comment, and the remaining 90% will be lurkers just reading occasionally. We are now up to ~350 users here which is amazing, and the amount of daily active users is pretty close to that 1% mark usually with about 5-10 of us who comment here semi regularly. I would love to attract more people here so that statistically speaking we have more and more people contributing.

The thought behind adding bot replies, schedules etc, is to potentially lure in the people who'd prefer an all in one experience, and/or spur community engagement with those posts/comments. Although I do fully appreciate your point about that potentially creating an environment where there's more bot activity than real humans, and that's obviously not something I want either. We are one of the biggest if not the biggest sports and specifically baseball communities on Lemmy already, so maybe we should just let the community grow naturally and avoid polluting the space with bot content.

I think that's more on the third base coach there. He was calling it a homer as Reese was trotting towards third. By the time Reese turned around to look himself, he was already around third and it was too late.

1st MLB AB 💣💣💣 for Schneider!! LFG!
