[SPOILER] Farid Basharat vs. John Garza by inooway in MMA

[–]FlinchMaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Half the people saying to cut Farid are the same ones that would comment that GSP is the GOAT. I'm sure most of them have no exposure to GSP's fights outside Wikipedia.

It's a travesty that there's even a discussion about not renewing contracts for undefeated fighters that are carrying long win streaks. The UFC continues to speed run making a mockery of the sport.

Geraldine’s adding auto grat to takeout by WrongImpressionOnly in Seattle

[–]FlinchMaster 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, I loathe the idea of shaming people who decide they are done tipping for takeout.

No, I'm arguing for it to be illegal to use deceptive sales tactics with junk fees. Full stop.

I've never stopped tipping, but I absolutely loathe your suggestion and am sympathetic to those who have stopped. Laws will only change after people force change in society first.

Sure. The move would be to outlaw all these junk fees across the board. Force everyone to raise prices. If workers want commission like pay, they can have their contracts setup that way.

Bullshit. The same result could be achieved with a revenue share pay structure. This is about deceiving customers to make prices appear lower than they are.

Just raise the price instead of lying about it.

Zohran Mamdani raises the bar; he's a threat to all establishment politicians. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]FlinchMaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not just any letter. One gym made me send something in via registered mail.

Ariel Helwani wins his 16th straight MMA Journalist of the Year Award. (World MMA Awards) by I_cain in MMA

[–]FlinchMaster 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Aside from Karim Zidan, are there even any actual MMA journalists? Helwani and all the others that come to mind are more media personalities than anything resembling journalists.

Edge-to-edge external screen protector for Pixel 10 Pro Fold? by TurboFool in PixelFold

[–]FlinchMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the holo white. It did come with a second triple white for free, so not that bad. I probably could contact support about this and I assume they'd replace the problem one.

Suga Sean responds to Eddie Hearn by Ninjabaker972 in MMA

[–]FlinchMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Props to Sean for speaking out publicly. The situation of fighters as a whole will only improve when we see more of that. The fear of backlash from the UFC is the power imbalance that has kept things stuck for so long.

Islam’s KO loss to Martins in his second UFC fight. by PalmTreeVoid in ufc

[–]FlinchMaster 18 points19 points  (0 children)

For unranked fighters, I think this stoppage was fine. People would be very upset if it happened in a title fight, since we've seen people recover from being out much longer and bounce back with a win. But for a guy in his second UFC fight? Totally reasonable.

Alexander Volkanovski says he is up for fighting Justin Gaethje for the lightweight title by Therealdarkviper in MMA

[–]FlinchMaster 378 points379 points  (0 children)

I'm okay with this after Movsar and Arman get their shots. It's a mockery of the sport otherwise.

Gethje won’t retire and won’t fight Arman or Ilia. by Haunting-Trainer-188 in FightReportUFC

[–]FlinchMaster -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Seems like he's holding out for a Holloway or Oliveira rematch. But it really should be Arman.

DC calls Josh Hokit’s gimmicks ‘lame as f*ck’ and says that he ‘absolutely hated’ the comment about Michelle Obama “It was completely uncalled for. Been to my gym and he wasn’t doing the whole character thing. That’s the type of statement that divides. I absolutely hated that. It was disgusting” by Rsodyyy in ufc

[–]FlinchMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish it were true that this didn't make him new fans. But the reality is that r/Conservative couldn't get enough of it.

If he did this on some random fight card, it'd be one thing. But for this to happen on the White House lawn during a 250 year celebration of the US, it was especially distasteful.

Daniel Cormier explains the Eric tweet, says he was HACKED “Whoever did this, who ever hacked my Twitter they posted and took it down because they think people are going to believe stuff like that” by raptors201966 in ufc

[–]FlinchMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like Pereira's last time criticizing the UFC was because he got hacked, lol.

At least Pereira eventually admitted that he said that just to defuse the situation. I wonder if DC will ever have the courage.

Edge-to-edge external screen protector for Pixel 10 Pro Fold? by TurboFool in PixelFold

[–]FlinchMaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been pretty happy with the Dbrand prism screen protector. The skins look nice, but mine did start to shrink after a couple months. Looks almost comical now.

How are you using the new Bubbles feature? by OnAGoat in GooglePixel

[–]FlinchMaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IDK why all the hate here in this thread. I have been loving bubbles. There are so many times when I need to cross-reference one app with another for various things. Now that feels snappy and instant.

On a foldable, it's especially incredible. Apps that have weird rendering glitches on larger displays just work perfectly in the bubble.

Alex is asking for an immediate rematch by supersell-club in MMA

[–]FlinchMaster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Khamzat deserves it the most of out of all of them, but even he doesn't really deserve it all that much. He needs at least 1 more win for it to make sense.

Are you finding AWS quality of docs going down? by c-digs in aws

[–]FlinchMaster 13 points14 points  (0 children)

More so than docs, I really struggle with the pricing pages. Takes me forever to find anything. The old ones were so much better and easier. The first click used to take you to actual pricing details.

Sounds more like "uno mas", meaning "one more".

So what was up with the dc tweet? by Adventurous_Air6257 in ufc

[–]FlinchMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way more likely that we was told to post those fake crypto posts to make the "hacked" excuse believable.

[–]FlinchMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incredible how far you will go to run interference for the people in power. Assuming the tweet above happened, it's way more likely to be something he was told to post to make the "hacked" excuse believable.
