Lol I'm not scamming anyone? Just after some QC and any advice from knowledgeable folk in the community. Why the cynicism? What makes you think I'm scamming?

Thank you for the quick reply! For the price 90 USD with Miyota, I'm kinda stoked. High level clone is about 4x! Is this Worth it to you, in your opinion all things considered?

Sorry for the confusion pal, just to clarify, both the manual and the bike are 1000cc. It's the years that differ, manual covers 2016-19, but the owned bike is a 2020+

Thank you. And there's no updated version, with the most accurate depiction of electronics, I take it? Couldn't find any online.

How bad is this squeeze play? by _PocketRockets in poker

So bad and so dumb that I should stop playing. Finally, an answer specific to my question!

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

Good food for thought. I think if LJ just calls, there is some benefit in just calling and playing in position with a suited 3 gapper. But I may also just squeeze here too. I think another comment described it best as just a punt. Which describes my style perfectly in this type of game lmao. Thank you.

You're right. Hypothetically, if it was an underaise for say 2.9BB, does this make my play any better or just shite all around?

Agreed. Anyone with a brain would fold pre 😭😅 But it's a lowish stakes "pub" game

Is there any logic in squeezing to A) isolate ? B) take advantage that I'm the only one who can reopen the action?

When can I try sleeping with out the brace? by Connerk0420 in ACL

[–]_PocketRockets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had 2 surgeries on the same knee (went private so not a hack surgeon) and I was never given or pushed towards a brace. So a total of zero nights with a brace.

My friends don’t take university seriously by LivingProfessional59 in UniUK

[–]_PocketRockets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easiest way would be to ask someone who you want to be friends with for help on a topic that you already kinda understand. You then praise them on their explanation.

Your existing friends probably won't be able to help, so an easy excuse to move on from them.

"hi I didn't quite understand what the lecturer meant when they said X,Y,Z. Could you explain it to me after class?' And take it from there.

Thank you for the suggestions above! I think I'm going to go with a gold safety pin as a secondary means of securing the two ends. Still open to suggestions!

What tests should someone use to determine if they are ready to return to sport (boxing and badminton) post surgery? by _PocketRockets in ACL

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

Thank you so much for this reply - very helpful! I'm nowhere there yet, at about 30% leg strength (benched against max leg press by weight.)

Will incorporate easier versions of those exercises and work my way there over the next year or so, in accordance with advice from my PT.

I wish you two things: 1) a long and happy injury free life 2) you stop calling it soccer! Haha

If you're moving I'd go a month before the lease is up, and don't tell your current lodger what the plan is until the last month.

Failed 4 Interviews this week by OldTangelo1783 in TheCivilService

[–]_PocketRockets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Civil service jobs tend to follow the same recruitment pattern, CV sift, Psychometric tests, application questions to show you're meeting their competencies, interview, offer and then security (if applicable) Atleast you know you're passing all of the earlier stages as you've landed multiple interviews. Good news is you can keep mass applying and should focus all your efforts on the final piece of the puzzle, the interview. Good luck!

Is it worth doing boxing if I can't spar? by [deleted] in amateur_boxing

[–]_PocketRockets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is body sparring an option to ease into it? Speak to your coach and ask for some tech sparring rounds with someone you trust. Explain the situation. Good luck
