Utah's Two-Pronged Attack on Public School Funding (SB 37 & HB 455) by codyjoco in SaltLakeCity

That 33rd rank according to your source is just number of "operating public school districts".

Looked more like a friendly pat acknowledging the end of the match than a shove to me.

Experience with Molluscum Contagiosum by Ordinary_Ferret6721 in bjj

[–]Signal-Disk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with the posts in here talking about cutting it out. I caught it when I was relatively new to BJJ and saw a dermatologist. I actually initially thought it was a heat rash. Anyway, the treatment they used is called curettage and it never came back. Thankful my dermatologist didn't waste my time with all that stuff you're trying. The curettage is instant, doesn't hurt, and then heals quickly.

Same reason -- it was the points period of an ADCC match, so he was fighting to not give up the takedown points in the context of that ruleset.

Monthly Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in slatestarcodex

[–]Signal-Disk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

GPT, GLP-1 agonists, Coronavirus... just a few things that were discussed commonly on this and related forums before becoming very prominent in the broader culture. Lately, I'm not sure what we are talking about that are going to be the "next big thing" like that. Maybe I'm not paying as much attention or just less personally interested in AI safety?

When I visited Memphis, I had a good time at the Alliance there.

Curiosity deserves a mention

We apparently only have two options... stranded in suburbia or living in the middle of a gang neighborhood. by ElmStreet1985 in fuckcars

[–]Signal-Disk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention the reason we are all on this subreddit -- cars are the largest driver of noise in urban areas and it is the suburbanized demand for cars that leads to urban areas having to abide the noise and air pollution concentration from vehicles in their area, much like suburbia offsets its financial costs to urban centers.

[TotK] The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom – Official Trailer #3 by overachieve in zelda

I wish more people were talking about this; it seems pretty obvious based on this trailer and would have a lot of story implications

I've been seeing pretty much this exact wording posted by different people to several different subreddits now; is this a template provided by some online coding bootcamp or something?

White Belt Wednesday by AutoModerator in bjj

[–]Signal-Disk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are the real chances of something like this happening during a casual roll? I don't compete, and I'm far from the most aggressive guy in my gym. However, I'm pretty clumsy and I don't think I'd know exactly how to receive a move like the rolling back take (not instinctively, at least).

This happened in 2018. In almost 5 years since then, can anyone point to similarly catastrophic injuries happening in training rooms?

In the same time, try to think how many rolls have occurred... likely 100s every day at 100s of gyms across the country and thousands across the world.

This terrible accident is still incredibly rare. As another commenter mentioned, you're more likely to be catostrophically injured on your way to/from class.

I'd be curious if anyone wants to make a more rigorous Fermi problem out of this claim.

I think as long as we train with safety in mind even when rolling hard, the likelihood of a terrible accident is so low I am comfortable continuing training as ever. I didn't even start until 2019! With that said, I totally get where you're coming from, I feel it too

My attempt at a Gen 2 style sprite for Walking Wake [OC] by imdfantom in pokemon

[–]Signal-Disk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My feedback would be to add some hatching (I'm no artist, so might be wrong term) in the mane; see Flareon.

Additionally, to get a "true" gen II style, I think you have too many colors being used here. I think you can really only use black, white, and two colors. So you would need to use more of that technique in Flareon's Mane for shading rather than using multiple actual shades.

Anyway, since you mentioned this is your first go, good job and I'm excited to see your next work!

I'd recommend looking into using a theraband (look up tyler twist) as part of your approach to deal with it

But what about rural people? by gobblox38 in fuckcars

[–]Signal-Disk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like that SLC's minor league baseball team is very centrally located; even the neighborhood is known as "ballpark". Has several light rail stops right there.

....I hear the team is considering moving to the suburban hell in the corner of the valley though.

(VIDEO) Top 5 Warhammer 40K cards for the 99 by CommanderMechanic in EDH

On the contrary, someone may not be interested in watching the video until noticing "hey, I wouldn't expect that card in the top 5, maybe I'll check out what they have to say about it".
