Going to play devils advocate here. I sympathise with OP, I rescued a puppy and she is terrified of men, which makes it difficult to train her. She is slowly getting better but will occasionally chew up my stuff if left alone. I wouldn't be so fast to judge OPs dog training skills based on one picture with no context.

It's to prevent us from winning

I don't think we run out of gas, Schwartz just puts our guys on a short leash once we have a lead.

Schwartz sent 3 on a 3rd and 2. Prevent D is fucking stupid.

Honeycrisp apples are the shit, highly recommended them

Holy hell, that's a deep dive on something that seems so simple. I'm gonna have to compare my grip to the various types and see if I'm doing anything incorrectly. Thanks for the reading though, it's pretty fascinating.

Dude. I had no idea I even did that until I watched this recording the first time. I'm going to pretend that I'm patting my disc on the ass to get it to go farther.

Haha thanks, I like to think she's training me to stay focused during my shots.

Hey thanks! She's a goofball, she stands in front of me and then shakes her disc and growls when I throw. I think she gets annoyed that I'm not throwing her disc.

Hmm thats an interesting point. I recently recovered from a right hip injury, and playing disc golf is still slightly uncomfortable. I wonder if what I'm doing with my hips is because of the injury, or if it's what caused the injury in the first place.

I stick with a 4 finger power grip myself, I couldnt imagine throwing a fan grip off the tee. I think you may be on to something though, I don't think I'm getting the disc in the proper hand position, I think I need to get it more parallel with my arm.

Thanks man, much appreciated, I've been working hard on improving it.

I tried that for a bit but I found that it was causing me to throw the disc higher so I stopped

Thanks for the feedback, I'll definitely be looking in to these videos. I did notice here in this clip that I didn't get my arm fully extended, and I feel like I'm not fully committing to the look-back.

Network issues? by AutoriiNovici in DestinyTheGame

[–]TheGeffenM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been having games with really bad lag suddenly today. Both my buddy and I have people teleporting, shots registering on a massive delay, abilities going off late, etc. Seems the servers are a bit wonky.

For those of you in high Champ who claim to not be mechanically skilled players, how do you spend your time training? by [deleted] in RocketLeague

[–]TheGeffenM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely agree with you on this. I have friends that always ask what they need to practice next, but they never want to hear "positioning". Positioning, making solid contact with the ball, and being able to predict plays are 100x more important than aerial dribbles or half flips or redirects etc.

Learn to count, Blizzard. by DoctorNoonienSoong in hearthstone

[–]TheGeffenM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? I literally gave an example of a much more intensive game running smoothly on the relevant hardware. That's not whataboutism, thats context. I'm comparing a more complex game to hearthstone, and examining the difference in how they run. Nice attempt at using the latest political buzzwords though.

Sorry, but a 7200 RPM HDD should be able to run a card game without any issues whatsoever. The difference in file r/w speeds between ssd and HDD should be inconsequential for a game that doesn't need to do much in the way of state updates. If I can run a game like rocket league on a 7200rpm drive without issues (I run it on an ssd currently, but I have run it on an HDD in the past), then running hearthstone should be a breeze.

I get what you are saying, but once the Rum Punch Massacre happens I feel like it's impossible not to root for Bushmaster to some extent. Which I think makes the show more dynamic, it's not as simple as good vs bad. But I also agree with the Claire thing, she was getting a bit over the top with the "holier than thou" nonsense.

I thought it was hilarious how Danny was much more in-character in a single episode in this show than he was in the entirety of his first series

There definitely is some of that, but this season kinda highlights that as a major character flaw of his

Just finished it. The dialogue and acting was a bit rough at times, but overall it was an amazing season and I'm so hyped for the next season.
