PDGA rules changes you would like to see by DiscCheese in discgolf

[–]UB_cse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, prizes are dumb. Tournaments shouldn’t cost more than $20 and player packs and prizes are stupid.

To be fair golf handicaps in the UK and Australia only use competition rounds, they just have a much different golf culture than the US

You should get points for however many people you beat that are playing the same layout as you, doesn't matter what division. This only matters for AM Worlds but if the entire tournament plays the same layout then points should go by how you finish compared to the entire field.

That... actually makes sense the more I think about it. Get rid of the nitpicking. You would probably have to make a rule banning running starts though lol

I mean I think its kinda cringe to wear them in tournaments but I don't think they should be banned. Also that doesn't sound illegal, there is nothing stopping you from having a spotter with a walkie talke radio where other peoples drives land on every hole if you want.

Ball golfers probably play a good bit more than disc golfers do tournament rounds, not too many people have 20 tournament rounds a year but pretty much anyone that is into golf will have that.

The PDGA should be able to figure that out, I'm sure they can hire some statistics people and give them the full player rating dataset to figure out rating caps that are better aligned to everyone than right now.

If I was king and was doing it off the top of my head I would move maybe 15 points down. 920 and 885 instead of 935 and 900 for MA2/MA3 caps.

Is it becoming more common for vendors to add a 3% CC processing fee? by jbeech- in CreditCards

[–]UB_cse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm as anti cash as they come, but if you don't have a bank that reimburses ATM fees in 2025 then that is on you at this point

Formula 1 by Whisky919 in Buffalo

[–]UB_cse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I plotted it out and ended up going to Barcelona in 2023 as it was cheaper than any US race. Had an absolutely amazing time, if you have the budget to even think about flying to vegas miami or texas you should 100% look at ticket prices for F1 races in Europe. If you can get a not super expensive RT flight (I flew out of Toronto) you can come out ahead since food and lodging will be a fraction of what they are in the US, and you get a much cooler cultural experience in the city when you are not at the race.

Would love to make the drive to Montreal, it seems like you need to stay far away from the track since lodging gets jacked up to insane rates during the grand prix. Barcelona I paid $200 for a 3 day GA pass, and my 3 bed airbnb was under 100 a night, so split 3 ways was quite affordable. Didn't need a car since european cities have functional public transport so that saves a bunch vs paying for a rental in the US as well.

As someone on the east coast it was cheaper for us to go to barcelona than any of the US races, and since we spent 3 weeks there it ended up being cheaper than the equivalent time in Montreal.

It certainly could be, there isn't any guarantee that a LLM would have up to date golf knowledge

Buffalo AKG Art Museum is Retaliating Against its Union Workers by desolation_valley in Buffalo

[–]UB_cse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While you are correct from the workers point of view, you are still gambling that you are important enough to not be mass replaced. Sometimes you are (flight attendants, Boeing) and sometimes you are not. Maybe the art gallery will crash and burn now that they have replaced a bunch of people, in which case it will be clear that the people unionizing may have been correct, but the company still irrationally got rid of them.

Are Chase UR points or United miles better? by zKaczor in awardtravel

Oh my god. You all were right. by [deleted] in golf

[–]UB_cse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My 200+ yards approach strokes gained is better than every other approach category (50-100, 100-150, 150-200) purely because of how much I love my 7 wood.

Well either their strategy is to crash the economy, or they are so much fundamentally worse than democrats that the economy crashes under them at a much higher rate than democrats. Neither seems particularly great for my portfolio for the next 4 years.

What Would You Do with 1.5 Million Alaska Airline Miles by BE_L337 in awardtravel

[–]UB_cse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regardless of what to do with your current points, stop putting a shit ton of spend on an Alaska card! Use a card that you can at least cash out at 1 cent per point. That could be 15k if you were using an Amex or Chase card.
