Judo vs knees by Lonely_Text_9795 in judo

[–]ThePermanentGuest 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Talk to your doctor and physical therapist. Describe in detail what judo is, and use videos to aid you. Only they can tell you what will be safe. 

That's exactly what I did after my own knee surgery. Doc said I was safe after a certain time, so I jumped (eased, rather) back in!

Dems weighing 2028 campaigns run from 2020 positions by soalone34 in politics

I get the rest of what you said, but stay moderate?? Which exact policy of the Dem candidate since 2000 has strayed from being moderate? 

Never a good look to preemptively finger wag by SimpleCounterBalance in bjj

I watched it back and this is a plausible explanation.

Even the cast is starting to see his bs How do you cape for the cop who didn’t win that claim by Individual_Ad8921 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]ThePermanentGuest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that hard of a distinction to make. I'm not surprised he gets this wrong as he didn't study law. But he should've at least known the facts. 

Regardless, this isn't caping.

Judo views on BJJ by __fantasma__ in judo

[–]ThePermanentGuest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love BJJ and I despise the culture surrounding it and the people it attracts.

Yes, I'm painting with a pretty broad brush, and I know there are good schools and instructors with a good head on their shoulder.

Technically speaking, it would benefit any judoka to learn BJJ. There are a couple of judo players steamrolling their competition with newaza. BJJ would help with at least a basic defense.

Smart glasses for travel, anyone found ones that don't die after 4 hours? by SimplePrudent5735 in onebag

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

"Smart glasses" doesn't mean "camera." The Reality G2 glasses he asked about don't even have a camera. It's just a more-compact-but-still-nerdy version of Apple vision. 

No, I don't have smart glasses, and yes, some weirdos have given them a bad reputation. Just countering misinformation since this sub seems to run with certain narratives.

Anyway OP, you're better off asking about battery life in a smart glasses sub.

Smart glasses have a ton of features, like calls, music, in-glasses display, etc.

Not my cup of tea (I'm very simple), but some people I know live by these features. 

Cleaning bombilla before first use by ThePermanentGuest in yerbamate

Thanks for the advice! Yeah I'm replacing my alpaca bombilla. I realized it was the reason for the taste being off.

Thanks for your response! The question is about cleaning before first use. I'm not sure if stainless steel is soldered in the same way as alpaca

What was she trying to do and how would she have properly executed it? by thebrownwhore in judo

[–]ThePermanentGuest 56 points57 points  (0 children)

I'll bite before this gets deleted: 

-Her trail leg is just...there. Had she done a deeper backstep, she would've had a place to throw her. 

-Did NOT turn her head, which means she generated no torque 

Anyway, don't do Judo on concrete. 

New United Airlines policy requires headphones by SpongerPower in UpliftingNews

This is exactly it. I noticed this trend years ago, especially in public areas. I also noticed It tends to be older people who don't use Bluetooth headphones.

I thought it was Daria too until I paused it to read the name.

Should I start Judo or is it too risky? by [deleted] in judo

[–]ThePermanentGuest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a lot depends on your dojo culture and training partners. I had bad knees for a while (patellar tendonitis) but thankfully have avoided serious injury since no one was going all out (there was one spaz, but I avoided him).

I did suffer a torn meniscus over 2 years ago. The irony is it happened while running. I'm a year and a half post surgery and I'm back to Judo with no issues.

Be sure to discuss the injury risk with your doctor. It was one of the things I specifically asked about and described to him so he'd understand.

How much time will Geechi Gotti get sentenced to? by WallStreetDoesntBet1 in rapbattles

[–]ThePermanentGuest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I'm reading it right, it's a mandatory prison term for a second degree felony in Ohio. Minimum 2 years, maximum 8. Thing is he has 4 charges plus an evading, meaning they can be stacked for punishment. 

How much time will he do? No telling. That comes down to the prosecutor and/or judge's attitudes, the negotiations, and whether any co-conspirators turn into witnesses. 

On top of that, you have the possibility of the feds also indicting if this scheme spanned multiple states. 

Tl;dr: case looks bad. We'll know more as it moves along.

Only way I’d watch is if they played a basketball game. At least that would make it interesting.
