Yes. Kevin Durant tore his Achilles and didn't even realize it until he finished sprinting down the court. Rodgers didn't seem to realize it until he tried to stand up. Probably has to do with adrenaline but lots of athletes seem to tear it and not realizes right away, whereas an ACL or hamstring people seem to notice immediately.

Man, it seems like an Achilles tear is the meanest injury. Like so many times athletes don't even notice it happens, then they go to do something totally normal (like get up after a routine hit/sack) and then realize they can't. Like most the time I've seen them they're not even in pain they just straight up cant use their leg correctly.
Fuckin sucks man.
You should really change your wipers more. The blades crack and become ineffective with age even if unused. Maybe not every year but every couple years!
Staying inbounds and getting smashed to pick up half an extra yard instead of going out of bounds when he already had a first. Flubbing the snap, picking it up and then immediately running full force into the D line and tumbling (again) instead of just taking the sack or throwing it away. Forcing the ball into triple coverage to get it intercepted instead of settling for three. Running into three defenders in open field instead of just sliding.
He looked like 2018 Allen tonight and 2018 Allen was not good.
Recognized that it was part of what makes me successful and learned to control it a little. For example, when I struggled with getting things done on time, I learned to set deadlines for myself and stuck to them. I realized that I work better when I know I'm a little up against the clock, so I kind of built that in for myself. The hard part is the not moving the deadline. You can't view it as moveable or it doesn't work.
I also ask myself "how long is it going to take" and most things if the answer is less than five minutes, I just try to force myself to do it and get it out of the way.
For other recurring things I do them on a schedule. So like, every weekend there are things around the house I need to do. It doesn't matter when I do them but I have to get them done the day I say I will. That's the deal Iake myself and it helps.
Those are some of my personal hacks. They don't work for everyone but they work for me.
Oh neat! I will check it out
Honestly didn't give voyager much of a shot. I didn't like how the UI was like an iPhone app, and I kept getting confused by it (because I'm a non-Phone user). I wasn't into wefwef for the same reason, but they both seemed solid enough.
I don't care how it tastes, I'm not drinking anything that has this much cringe on the label.
Nice! I feel like I'd read somewhere that they added it but I haven't used Thunder in weeks now, connect has become my #1 daily driver and sometimes I check on eternity when it updates. I should try to give thunder some love though,not was my #1 for a while when connect was still a little jank/less polished.
Afaik I've used ALL the lemmy apps on android. Connect is by far the best. It was kinda neck and neck with thunder and infinity for a bit, but the 1.0+ release implemented some amazing features, while still keeping the most functionality and managing to avoid the "scroll stuttering" that plagues other apps. Infinity (now eternity) is also good but account switching is more difficult and you can't block instances or communities from theain page like you can on connect. Example fo why that's lame - say you're scrolling by all and theres a bunch of gay/furry/anytypeofpornyoudontwanttosee...on many apps you have to GO to that communities main page just to block it. On connect you just tap the three dots menu and pick which you want to do. Easy peasy.
Have you tried having better luck?
Same. The meme overload on the /all/ sort can be kind of obnoxious but it's so easy to block communities that it's a minor nuisance.
