Olympics on the moon would be bad ass!

With blackjack. And hookers.

Some might say there were a few from Venus as well?

They didn't win any medals, though, because that track isn't purple.

Are we sure Steph's ability to shoot is not alien in nature?

Its certainty out of this world.

I feel bad for her, but what did she expect the reaction to be? She had to of known that what she was doing was not break dancing.

"The change.org petition calling for Gunn to apologize..." That is so 2020's. People need to learn to mind their own damn business. If you don't like something that doesn't affect you and doesn't harm anyone, simply ignore it. People signing that petition are the ones who should be apologizing.

I know, I know. Social media is here to stay and these things will only get worse. Mob mentality for the win.

It's like people don't understand that if you choose to do something in the public eye, you're going to get hate. It doesn't matter what it is. There will be people who like your stuff and people who hate it. Her dancing was awful and it went viral. That's just it. Plain and simple.

Funny, Curry acted like a total jackass at the Olympics (as he's done at GS), and I haven't heard word from anyone here commenting on it.

What is there to say about Curry that hasn't been said over the last 10 years?

How about: Try as he might, Curry is only the #2 jackass on his team.

How do the various types of lighting, such as general, specialized, and broadcast lighting, play a crucial role in the Olympic Games? I have read some posts about Olympic venue lighting, but not sure whether it is correct. Specifically, how are these lighting systems designed to enhance visibility for athletes, create an optimal atmosphere for spectators, and meet the unique demands of television broadcasts, especially in indoor and outdoor venues during both day and night events?

The lighting at the Olympic Games is designed to serve several purposes: general lighting for visibility and safety, specialized lighting to highlight athletes and performance areas, and broadcast lighting to ensure high-quality TV broadcasts. Additionally, atmospheric lighting is used during ceremonies to create dramatic effects, while energy-efficient LED lights and smart lighting systems help reduce energy consumption. Each type of lighting plays a vital role in creating the optimal environment for athletes, spectators, and global audiences.
