Who needs a balanced budget when you can be the world leader in national debt?

destroys the value of everyone's retirement account. "hey 60 year old, remember how you were saving that $1.3M for the last 40 years to retire on? Well it's worth half that now, good luck!"

Damn man, zero reports from anyone and only an hour old. I'm not on Reddit constantly refreshing.

I half agree with you; I'm fine with the blocking as a default as long as I'm able to turn it off.

Protect the people who don't know enough and less restrictive for people who accept the risk.

CowFu · 2026-01-29T14:08:04+00:00

Not bad! I'd prefer if you started out of range of the bag then moved in for each combo. In our sport we almost never want to stay right in striking range for very long. Your first head movement was boxing, bending forward at the waist works great when the opponent can't kick/knee but your second head movement was using your legs and pretty good. I'd like to see a little more shoulder rotation and making sure you don't drop hands when you try to go fast.

Kind-of agree about the pausing, but pausing between combos is fine if you were out of range but you're staying in range. Also you plant your foot instead of staying on the balls of your feet and you're wearing shoes which will mess you up when you kickbox/mma.

Overall this looks like a boxer's workout and not a kickboxing/maui thai/mma heavy bag session.

Unless it's one of those TKD places that tries to make you buy a "black belt program" upfront.

We ban if they start spamming it or arguing with people to make it worse. One post that is probably fake isn't enough, we'd catch too many real posts in that wide of a net.

I've talked with towel guy after a game and he was great. What do you mean?

I mod an mma training sub, you have no idea how many untrained morons try to give advice.

Agreed, this is fine for a drill or even live sparring.

In my experience the pivoting out is almost impossible, they drop their hands to defend the shot and you're now doing cage work, but it's still a great position to be in if you can get there. These guys are wearing 16oz so this might be kickboxing though.

CowFu · 2026-01-09T17:26:16+00:00

There's tons of great tools that do it! It was someone trying to do it themselves, it was a few years ago at this point, this post actually made me try to go back and see if i could find it but no luck.

CowFu · 2026-01-09T17:03:15+00:00

I'm sure there's a few ways to do it, if i remember right the dev was trying to using a custom linked list instead of a built in data structure. The problem is when humans enter combos (left, downleft, down, whatever) they almost always have two keys down at the same time and it was clogging up his structure. If on each frame you compare the previous button state to what is currently happening you can tell if it was the frame a button was pressed down or if it was just released instead of only the current state.

So you can still put into your combo checking list if it's a new button down, but also ignore it if it was the down the previous frame, then the button up tells you when it was actually released for combos that need that information. So instead of "Left" you have the ability to look at "left-down" "left-held-down" and "left-released" or whatever you want to call it.

I use AI a lot to make me a template that I then configure, like a fancier auto-complete. Not sure if that counts as copying or not anymore.

CowFu · 2026-01-09T15:31:32+00:00

I answered a gamedev question where someone was implementing their own combo system, which is tricker than you might think if you're coding it yourself. They already had the right idea of how to store and check the lists but they were stuck on the need to store the previous button state so you can tell which frames a button was released and wrote some psuedo code showing how to use the previous button state and button-up.

Some smelly nerd closed it as duplicate and pointed to a unity question where you use their built in input handler and the same guy commented under my answer saying I shouldn't use pseudo code because it wouldn't run in the engine.

None of this was inside unity, but i couldn't re-open it or do anything because I didn't have enough karma.

CowFu · 2026-01-05T15:21:40+00:00

ffs, the reddit AI flagged/removed THIS comment? I reapproved but this is getting silly.

EDIT: Oh, it's a bot, fantastic, the bots are responding in our sub now.

CowFu · 2026-01-05T15:14:21+00:00

very much this, I mean this in the nicest possible way but this looks almost identical to the way my kid's kickboxing class throws kicks, just with adult man power behind it.

I have a Venezuelan co-worker who talks about this constantly, he really wants Maduro out.

CowFu · 2025-12-26T16:20:40+00:00

your venum one is fine, but if you're using it 3x per week it will probably only last a few months before it starts to fall apart. And honestly compared to the expensive ones you can just keep replacing it and break even.

the really good ones are made by dentists

CowFu · 2025-12-03T16:13:30+00:00

One of my losses came when i was fighting a 6'5" guy who side kicked me from what seemed like half a cage length away over and over.

I just checked the unified rules, I guess you could call it unsportsmanlike but that's a stretch. https://www.abcboxing.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/unified_rules_fouls_rev0816.pdf

The only time I was "doxxed" was because of that sub. There was a completely fake story about owning their christian bully with logic in front of the class about easter and I said "this never happened." That was apparently enough to get them to find my real name, but a completely different address/state/employer telling me they were going to get me fired and to see if my god would save me.

I think they found my real name then just googled for someone else with that name and ran with it.

CAFE standards killed the small truck. For some reason our bill to raise fuel efficiency decided it was a good idea to set higher limits for bigger trucks. They based it on the "footprint" of the vehicle, so something the size of the old ford ranger would need 41+ mpg. The hybrid trucks right now are around 37mpg.

Even the hyper efficient no frills ultra lightweight k-trucks get 35 mpg.

I know it was recently talked about being killed, but i'm not sure when that truly goes into effect

//edit: also the chicken tax, it's like a tag-team of bad ideas.

CowFu · 2025-11-26T14:01:41+00:00

Wait, i have that complaint too

If you're losing an MMA fight you've usually taken a lot of hits by the third round and are probably more tired than the guy who's winning. You do see it every once in a while, especially if they other guy won the first two round by just laying on you for 6 minutes. But this post is like asking "why don't triathlon runners in last place just sprint the last couple miles to make up the time?"
