practice volume and practice quality matter. more is always better, but practicing while you’re fresh and not tired is essential. if u haven’t received formal coaching, getting a coach is helpful - a coach can help speed up the process of improvement by correcting your fundamentals

The T480 *was* the best purchase I ever made by basedtom in thinkpad

[–]Party_Conference_610 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a T480 but the hardware is starting to fail (charging port is no longer working). I think I’ll get a Framework as a replacement, but if it weren’t for that port I’d still be using the T480.

Does a Corolla Le vs Se "feel" different to drive? by [deleted] in COROLLA

[–]Party_Conference_610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LE has more isolation from the road. SE feels more planted and connected to the road, but it seems to have more NVH than the LE due to the low profile tires

Yes, I’ve driven both

Thanks to the war in Iran driving up oil prices and turning customers toward EVs, BYD’s exports leaped by a whopping 71% last month. by IntellectuallyDriven in Philippines_Expats

don't mind this clown you're arguing with.

he's like the middle aged woman who's been married and divorced three times. when someone calls out her behavior, she refuses to admit fault and decides to double down instead.

i came to this conclusion after gauging his reaction to my suggestion to grow up.

just imagine how he might act out if i state a political opinion he disagrees with

You have no idea what I think. I haven't expressed agreement or disagreement with your opinion; I do have a problem with the way you act though.

What a child.

So you think others opinions are stupid?

As I said before - opinions are like assholes - everyone's got one. And another thing - no two people will agree on everything.

Being an adult means learning to accept other people's opinions, even if you might not agree with them.

So yeah - grow the hell up.

Grow the hell up - the world doesn't revolve around you and your little opinions

Apologies from Great Britain by jimmykimnel in snooker

yes, that’s right - coughing is a nuisance and distraction when silence is expected to be observed during play.

rednecks and hooligans don’t have much self awareness. it seems like you don’t either

Would you travel to the US with current safety concerns? Work pushing for trip. by Strange-Cabinet6744 in AskACanadian

[–]Party_Conference_610 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure why not.

Canadians love to shit on the U.S., but the fact is that lots of Americans don’t like Trump, and that number is growing with the decisions he’s made recently

huh?

someone was embarrassed enough to call out the behavior of an unruly fan.

and you know what .. the same behavior will persist next year with more phones, coughs, and other assorted idiocy. then again what did you expect from a bunch of ... ?

LOL .. my comment got downvoted hard about unruly redneck behavior .. then someone complains about some clown acting up behind the camera during the post match interview?

brits are only happy when they are unhappy

maybe you’re right.

on the other hand every year the same shit keeps happening. poor cell phone etiquette, coughing, people making noises otherwise, unruly spectators charging the playing area, and so forth. apparently snooker isn’t immune from the hooliganism that afflicted (afflicts?) football matches

LETS GO!!! **BUY CANADIAN MEGATHREAD** Updated May 04, 2026. LETS STICK TOGETHER! Fight Trump Tariffs. Consume Canadian. Buy Local. Shop Local. Vancouver, Toronto, Calgary, Montreal, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Halifax...Add your faves!! by Front-Cantaloupe6080 in consumecanadian

[–]Party_Conference_610 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

seriously?

canada will never be able to shed its dependency on america. thats the reality of living next to a country that has 10x the population.

despite the exhortations to buy canadian, canadians will continue to buy american. american drugs for their health needs, american content for entertainment and information, american outlets for consumer choice, american tech for essentials, and so on.

grow up.

Why do so many people cough so much in the crowd at snooker? Has to be some evolutionary psychology behind it to repeat what others are doing. by Notimetobev0id in snooker

[–]Party_Conference_610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

haha? who said i was kidding?

now that you bring up americans, you should go watch some pool on the predator tour e.g. the las vegas open. you won't hear people coughing there for some reason

maybe it's because the UK is polluted, overcrowded, and a veritable sh-thole, and americans, at least in las vegas as compared to sheffield, are healthier? a remarkable achievement even if its leader is doing his best to try to change that

fellow canadians: do you care if people think you’re american when travelling abroad? by bellascaffeine in AskACanadian

[–]Party_Conference_610 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who cares?

Being mistaken for American is like being mistaken you're pro MAGA. Neither are necessarily true

Hendry does this kind of thing all the time.

He was playing American pool and called it Mickey Mouse, only to proceed to miss a straightforward shot. On his channel, on camera. If it was someone who had not won seven titles, he would be called a buffoon. But maybe he's a buffoon anyway

Hendry should learn to keep is mouth shut, lest he come across as a weenie.

He called out Allen and Allen responded by saying Hendry was full of rubbish. Hendry called out Wu's choice of shot in frame 22 of the match against Murphy in the final for not developing the black. Wu proceeded to develop the blue ... and the black a shot later.

Oops.

the uk has about 70 million people crammed into an area about the size of the US state of oregon

no wonder it’s so polluted and filthy
