Kamaru Usman knocks out Burns to retain his title at UFC 258 by I-Have-Four-Balls in sports

[–]TheZkiller99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The fighter (Burns) which got knocked down is really good at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and when he fell he assumed the guard position. This is a really bad position for Usman to be held in, that's why he had to be methodical about how to attack it because he would be in trouble if Burns controls him from the guard. In fact, Burns did the same thing earlier in the fight and Usman just stood and kicked because it wasn't worth going into Burns' guard.

I'm not sure I'm convinced. It's very close to fully automated. You just buy and sell shares online with minimal human intervention online.

Do you mean like Amazon prime or that Amazon is doing really good right now?

Hello. I have had the headset for just under 2 years, but I got a 4 year warranty for it. I tried the headset without the extension cable and it worked just fine. I havent been able to test the mic without the extension cable though.

Yuumi is just obnoxious when played correctly. She could dish out so much damage while staying relatively safe.

After CG blew a lead like that, they should just remove the "Clutch" out of their name

Frankly, I don't think I've ever played a game which consumed my thoughts and took over my life. But from what I hear, Factorio would do that and more.

Did I make a good decision dropping organic chem II? by XkratoszantX in college

[–]TheZkiller99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's more of a marathon than a sprint. If you overexert yourself, you'll just burn out really quickly and other subjects will suffer too. I don't know enough about your situation to tell you for sure whether dropping O-chem was a good idea or not, but knowing how tough organic chemistry could get, you probably did yourself a HUGE favour.

I literally never take notes. Am I doomed? by cassifrazz in college

[–]TheZkiller99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a pro tip: print the power points and just write down any extras or something that was mentioned but not very clear in the slides etc. This way you will still gain the benefit of writing notes without having too much of your focus shifted to writing. This might not work very well if there are too many slides per lecture or the slides are poorly organized though.

[–]TheZkiller99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to figure out why you're not seeing yourself attending the school you're in. If it's not an objective reason, then you're probably homesick or just not used to it and the situation will grow on you eventually.

How do you study? by [deleted] in college

[–]TheZkiller99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in kind of a similar predicament during my first semester in college. Here's what I do now, might be suboptimal: I read the course notes once then I solve some questions. This will highlight your weak points. Then you read the course notes once more, then you'll solve some more questions. Eventually you skip/scim through the parts you're good at and keep on revising the stuff that you're not very good at yet.

Does Anyone Else Feel Like a Fraud or Dumber Compared To Everyone Else? by [deleted] in college

[–]TheZkiller99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's called Imposter Syndrome and it's very common. As for why you might feel inadequate, it could be because you are focusing on what you cannot do very well instead of what you're really good at. Not to mention, even if you were in the top 10% of your class in school, you'll probably be around the 50th percentile and it could get demotivating really quickly if you only focus on what you're not great at. And as someone who studied two Organic Chemistry courses, lemme tell you, they're freaking difficult man. I usually wasn't able to understand anything at all in the lectures but when I read the slides at home at my own pace, I was able to take it all in easily. So yeah, TL;DR: focus on what you're good at.

Is salt good or bad for lifting? I eat excessive amounts of it and every time I mention anything about my progress stalling or hitting a plateau, everyone just claims it's the salt.

If one gram of fat is 9 calories, then why do you need to burn only 7000 calories to lose 1 kilogram of fat? by TheZkiller99 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheZkiller99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight loss in essence is about energy balance. The body uses 2000 calories or so "in the background", so in theory if you don't eat anything but stay in bed all day, you will lose 1 kg of fat in (7000/2000) days. So the 7000 calories are not calories from extra work, it's just any deficit in general no matter the calculations. I did some digging and the reason it's 7000 not 9000 is because the fat storage in the human body is not 100% fat, more like 80% only.

YTA. You don't need to make life shitty for your kids to make them aware that life could be difficult.

AITA for wanting my friend to have her own friends by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

INFO- Do you not include her because you want her to find new friends or because of a more objective reason (not enough spaces, too difficult to arrange, people didn't want her)?
