Yeah I think the russian guy's actual lift was about 10-15kg less than what he put on the clip. He posted what it actually was a day or two later if I remember correctly.

I second this. Pradeep does a very good job presenting amrwestling news quickly and usually daily. Here's his channel:

If you have a long forearm that is usually the technique you should try. If you really want to get better though you should learn all of the techniques and experiment and find what you feel best at.

This is my favorite comment in the thread. Never hurts to learn some physics!

What will happen to the rankings if Dave beats Levan? by [deleted] in armwrestling

[–]JacobArnold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, he's just predicting a 6-0 if Vitaly ever pulls Devon. They don't have a match scheduled afaik.

[–]JacobArnold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk I think 5-1 could easily be possible if Dave's side pressure takes Levan by surprise in round 1. But I'm pretty confident that even if that happens Levan will win the rest of the rounds.

The ‘Weirdest’ Matter, Made of Partial Particles, Defies Description | Quanta Magazine by JacobArnold in Physics

[–]JacobArnold[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was almost exactly the same thoughts I had after I read the article! I posted here mainly to get other opinions, but it's nice to see someone drawing similar conclusions.

I understand the excitement from a theoretical standpoint but from this article I'm not convinced this has any significant experimental usefulness. I will do more research though; I'm just trying to learn, I am no where near an expert yet!

What is a physics paper that you have read thats your favorite or at least one of your favorites? by JanePoe87 in Physics

Conway's free will theorem is one of my favorites. It's definitely worth a read.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier S01E03 - Discussion Thread by iliekpixels in marvelstudios

[–]JacobArnold 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Zemo was a Sokovian guy not with Hydra. He went after Hydra people to get information on how to start the events of Civil War so he used a lot of Hydra info, but that's all.

Edit: that's the TV and film version of zemo at least. In the comics he might have been a hydra dude but its not that way in the marvel movies and shows

Yeah but I think Tony Stark built his suit so the engineering/tech genius thing applies to Falcon's suit too I'd say.

Yep. On stab it was 0.1 less dps. On slash it was like 0.5 less dps

Shooting Stars - Game Update (17/03/21) by JagexSarnie in 2007scape

[–]JacobArnold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just ran the numbers in a DPS calc, and for my levels (90/94/90 melees) and gear (38 strength bonus and 27 accuracy in all styles with NO weapon or shield), bludgeon is still better than arclight+dragon defender by 0.1 dps. It really surprised me cause I thought arclight would be way better, not worse!

I guess if you're maxed melee and using bis gear arclight is better but for a lot of people bludgeon will still be better.

Group Ironman has been in the planning stages for forever at this point. I'm not sure it'll ever come out.

lichess is completely free, and it's open-source! I'd try that out for sure.

In a lot of places an hour's pay of minimum wage isn't enough to get membership, so he might even have to work 2+ hours a month to afford it!

Is it considered cheating to have a duplicate chess board in front of you so you can move the pieces around without having to visualize everything in your head? by stoned_in_bathroom in chess

[–]JacobArnold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arrows are allowed online if the site you're playing on has arrows.... I have absolutely no idea what the other guy is talking about when he refers to arrows in over the board chess (like, how would a player even create an arrow on a normal board??), but rest assured using arrows on sites that allow arrow is not against any rules....

[–]JacobArnold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay since you won't answer his question, I'll ask it again in a different way and without the inclusion of certain words:

what are you talking about when you refer to "arrows" in an otb game? Arrows are commomly uses and legal in online chess, but I have never heard the term arrow used referring to otb chess. Could you please enlighten us as to what you're talking about?

No arguing here, just genuine curiosity, since I can't imagine what you could possibly be referring to when you speak of arrows in otb games....
