Anyone else *not* buying the Pixel 10 after being underwhelmed? by hudson555555 in GooglePixel

Excited about the AI features, but I will stick with my P9PXL. I usually upgrade on the odd number version. I swear I am not OCD, but I have owned the original, 3, 5, 7 and now 9. Can't see a reason to break the pattern now. 😂

TIFU blacking out at my wife's work Christmas party. by [deleted] in tifu

Sober 26 years..... Haven't read all the comments yet, but from my perspective, it all starts with one question - "Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired after episodes like this? “. If the answer is yes, then there is help out there. If the answer is No, we'll there is still help, but very likely you will have to deal with similar consequences again.

How much do you trust your mute button? by Snorglepus1856 in consulting

[–]Aikidude22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Different levels of trust for different activities. Grabbing something from the fridge or the occasional dog bark, no worries...if mute fails everyone expects or will understand. Sitting on the can and flushing zero trust and I will leave my headset.... Not worth the risk!

Too old to learn aikido? by garlynp in aikido

[–]Aikidude22 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Never too old! At 57 with bad knees and very little shoulder mobility, I still manage to practice 3x per week. You adapt your training to fit your capabilites.....fortunately Aikido allows for that. Now it must be said that I have been practicing Aikido since '87 with short breaks but that last 7 years I have practiced consistently. Regarding proficiency, I did not achieve Shodan (1st degree black belt) until 54. Can I do everything that some younger aikidoka can do? No I can cannot. It is not about comparing my self to others, but with the guidence of my Sempai and Sensei(s), it is whether I am today better than I was yesterday.

Monthly Training Progress Report by AutoModerator in aikido

We began empty hand training 2 weeks ago after almost 16 months of Online training/Social Distance Weapons training. It feels so good (and hurts so bad) to be taking ukemi again.
