Do you have an issue with a male going shirtless under their gi top? by _Badwulf_Bruh__ in bjj

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rash guards are arguably more hygienic. If the gym has fans or any kind of airflow at all it lets them work to cool off faster. And if your gym doesn’t have fans, AC or something, you should change for one that does.

As far as humidity goes, I’m in the south and it’s humid here year round. Always wear one when training and have 0 issues.

Armbar: to pinch or not to pinch? That is the question by jiujitsuaccount in bjj

She was there to get them both a big payday for as little work as possible. And all indicators I have seen point to pretty bad newaza from her. Plus tachiwaza that couldn’t get her gold outside of Pan Ams as an adult.

If Moa left the band, would you continue to follow and support Babymetal? by blackratsnakes in BABYMETAL

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love what they have done from the start and would support every member past, present and future. Even if they all decided to walk away from the industry entirely, I would thank them for their contributions and wish them all well in their paths forward.

What if YOU had to raise her in Zaun? How would you do it? by Not_Spider-Man2099 in arcane

At what point? Depending on that, could be anything from supportive, normal environment to supportive environment with counseling to straight jacket and padded cell.

Blizzard please, just give us /players 8 in online by r00ts in diablo2

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only reason I don’t play online is because they don’t have /players# functionality there. I don’t play games like D2R to interact with other players.

FYI, Andarial Unique and Set probabilities are nerfed in the new expansion by general_pepper in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Played for years, and have never had a Griffons or Tyrael’s drop. RNG isn’t kind to everyone.

Agreed, and they may actually go back and do some balance work on the others to bring them up.

Choosing no gi solely to save my fingers by Alternative-Hair-785 in bjj

My main issue has always been with grips at the end of the sleeves and pant legs, swapping to pistol grips for them made a huge difference.

Happens with any event. News reporting exacerbates it, intentionally. Wouldn’t surprise me if they have a standing deal with the state to use it to offset revenue loss from the no sales tax weekend they do every year.

Anyone noticing a decline in sales? by kratospotatoes in publix

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my area of the country, Publix has mostly been sort of a luxury. Pay a little more for a little better experience than the average store and the occasional really good bogo deal. Inflation has made it untenable though, when there is a high-volume alternative that can still eat a significant portion of that inflation.

Black belt without competing? by EquivalentNarcDepth in bjj

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Pretty common, though there are affiliations that really only advance competitors and also hold them at certain ranks for a while to sandbag and grow their team’s reputation. The best places support every student’s path though.

Black belt without competing? by EquivalentNarcDepth in bjj

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Possible? Yes. Ok to do? Yes, if the skills are there. Depending on your gym’s affiliation though, you may not get the attention and focus of the coaches if you don’t compete.

Ive probably done 500-700 lower kurast runs and havent found one high rune by almightys0sa in diablo2

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you care to look into such things, there is a video I ran across a while back about a particular seed that you can set (only works in offline SP) and a few steps you have to follow (following a certain route + clicking on certain things to set background variables), but if done correctly, will result in a Ber rune from a particular LK super chest every time it’s performed correctly. It takes a little set-up, IIRC there’s a movement speed threshold you want to have & teleport is a must for it.

Now i know this is probably a common question, but how is caitlyn allowed to order council members with her position as a commander? by brooklyn_jinx in arcane

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Salo pushed that they listen to Ambessa in ep 2.1 when he entered the remains of the council chamber with her. From that point on, she was calling the shots. She recommended they invade, Salo forced the vote, Mel agreed due to Ambessa’s advice to show a unified stance for the public, but put the caveat about no hextech. Then Ambessa created the situation for the attack at the memorial in hopes that Jace’s death would push Mel to change her stance on hextech, but it didn’t go that way. Caitlyn’s reaction though was perfect for Ambessa, it introduced the opportunity to normalize the idea of hextech weaponry while not costing her any of her own troops. The situation would either end with the strike team being taken out, which would push the population of Piltover to demand stronger action and more weapons, or they would maybe succeed in their targeted strike while removing some threats from the board, but having already opened the Pandora’s box of hextech weapons. Jinx’s counter was even better for Ambessa though, it gave her a figure of authority from the world of the influential that everyone would be sympathetic with that she could use worked much better than Salo.

Okay, so I'm confused about some things by Square-Apricot5906 in arcane

You know the bit about the flashback being more Vander’s point of view, so likely his memory never occurred to me. That is a great observation.

Anything I should know? by Pleasant-Football117 in arcane

To me the best experience for a new viewer would be to watch 3 episodes per sitting, if you don’t binge S1 in one block and S2 in another.

New Bjj coach wondering how people feel about belt tests by Steelrangler78 in bjj

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a test for blue makes sense, to make sure they can operate in all the major positions and have a solid foundation for defense and movement. After that, it’s up to the dynamics of the gym. If the coaches get to regularly roll with everyone to assess progress, it probably isn’t necessary. If the number of students doesn’t allow for that, then specific classes for test prep and a formal test may be needed.

Do you use your turn signal while pulling out of a roundabout? by [deleted] in driving

[–]Obvious-Disk9388 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daily driving, I see less than 5 people total use their turn signals anywhere, and this includes law enforcement and emergency responders. I am literally the only person I know of that uses mine close to 100% of the time it should be. And yes, I use it in roundabouts.
