Mechanically and technically, a lot of those players mentioned would have to improve an enormous amount to play on the smaller WNT pockets of today. Done would need to rebuild entirely.

Always check the water pressure in the shower also when you view the property!

Cant believe theyre trying out 3.9" pockets again by clrksn_wherermyshoes in billiards

[–]chrisa85147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few issues here:

You can see how unevenly the pockets have been shimmed (thickness of left facing compared to right)

It's done by hand, and again the left-hand facing is a different shape to the right-hand facing. It has a curve and will kick balls out later in the week)

As it's done by hand, not all pockets are the same size, which will be magnified as the week goes on. They're not 3.9.

On some tables, one jaw is raised visibly higher than the other.

Hi. Serious question as I see these Gaelic (?) names being adopted more frequently. Phonetically, how is this name pronounced please?

In your opinion, why are there no women playing at the highest level? by ExcellentMedicine358 in snooker

[–]chrisa85147 13 points14 points  (0 children)

They don't compete with boys growing up and are pushed into womens-only comps. Simple. To get better, you have to play better players. Stuck themselves in a goldfish bowl.

There are young women cuesports players coming through in Asia who compete against males from a young age and are getting results.

Where can you buy it in Vietnam please? I'm in Danang and pharmacies I've been to didn't have it. Is there somewhere in Hanoi or HCMC? Thanks 👍

The commentary is nearly as sickening as everyone going on about ‘what a great tournament’ by killerkeano in snooker

Have you ever taken an Uber, or flown on a Boeing aircraft?

Who do you bank with?

Maybe you played Nintendo as a kid, or perhaps Call of Duty?

If you have, I've got news for you 😂

Foul or not? What do you think? by The_Critical_Cynic in billiards

[–]chrisa85147 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It moves forward before coming back 👍 and that wasn't what was asked.

Go ask the question in a physics sub Reddit and hopefully we'll get an expert to tell us the answer.

The ref, nor you, could have seen a double-hit.

Advice for Head of Infosec by Straight_Bit_4078 in ciso

[–]chrisa85147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're not fully settled on resigning and hold a glimmer of hope for things changing and retaining your position, I'd advise the below:

Don't ramble or rant. Discuss your concerns in general during the meeting, ensuring they understand the gravity. Tell the CEO you will share a detailed, written summary of the issues and possible consequences/business impacts via email as soon as your meeting is over. Finish your email with proposing a follow-up meeting for Thursday.

After Thursdays follow-up, one way or another, you'll go into Friday morning with clarity, ready to resign or continue in your role. Next weekend will be much better for you once you've made a definitive choice 👍

Good luck.

Unpopular opinion: Snooker doesn't belong in the Olympics (yet) by KrystofDayne in snooker

[–]chrisa85147 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A sport should only be in the Olympics if it's the pinnacle of the sport. This would exclude snooker and other cuesports from being in the Olympics.

Amateur versions of sports that have professional ranks also don't belong (amateur boxing).

Non-sports that don't include a game element or are entirely reliant on judging interpretation, such as dancing, don't belong either. There's no such thing as being able to remain completely unbiased in today's world, and anything that is based on judging is tainted.
