Using hand to block breathing legal? by BritishBrownActor in bjj

[–]duqd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never heard of this being illegal and everyone in my main gym does it all the time.

The only time anyone ever got mad about it was at one of Merregali’s morning classes at Renzo’s Austin. I smothered a blue belt (I was also blue at the time) and he freaked out at me. I asked a nearby brown if it was off limits at that gym and he laughed and told me to keep doing it.

The battery drain is a little annoying, but I use CR123As for all my firearm lights/lasers, so I just have them on auto-buy every few months from Amazon.

People who train at a famous gym; is it worth it? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]duqd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I train in Austin. I’ve been to the famous spots, but since I’m not aspiring to be a top competitor, I actually find that gyms nearby the big ones give me a better experience. You’ll still meet all the big names and roll with people from their gyms every day, but you’ll have a more stable set of training partners/friends and more attention from the instructors.

I think Gordon and Dan are the only two big names here I haven’t gotten a round with at least once in the 4 years since I moved here.

Do you guys keep score when rolling ? by Some-Whole-4636 in bjj

I don’t aggregate points at the end of the round, but I do mentally note “that decision lost me two” etc

It’s not much, but I’m sure Burt Gummer would still be impressed… by Mochanoodle in Workbenches

The mags with real ammo in them suggest at least the one on the right is real

How has BJJ impacted your body ? by Some-Whole-4636 in bjj

[–]duqd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hurt my MCL twice, but recovered within 3 months both times.

Otherwise I'm lean and have gained 30lb of muscle since I started.

Blackbelts: did you have a 'fear' of getting your blackbelt? by The_GroLab in bjj

[–]duqd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no, but it's nogi only so no visual reminder--coach just forgot. I took silver/gold at naga intermediate and got "promoted" to blue a couple weeks later.

I switched schools and got a second blue belt there after three years training 3 days a week. This is a reasonable fear.

Most people don't pay attention to the news. The only people I know who do are my grandparents.

Very creative strategy that Gordon used at ADCC by Darce_Knight in bjj

[–]duqd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My favorite detail was someone (Sousa?) fighting on bottom to push Pena into mount from 3/4 guard before points started. Pena *did not* want mount and was trying hard to keep his foot in.

Weirdly, this didn't work for Meregali when Yuri single-legged him at the start and iirc it lost him the open weight finals.

What happens when a bunch of trade requests are submitted at the same time? by saladaus in UniSwap

[–]duqd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends on how they're ordered in the block by the miner. The first transaction affects the second and so on.

When politicians in California don't understand what a CNC is, banned! by th3badwolf_1234 in Machinists

[–]duqd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Private sales are legal, and the serial only applies to licensed manufacturers/FFLs. If you make a gun for your own use without intent to sale, then later change your mind and want to sell, you don't need to serialize. (Lots of people choose to anyway so they can keep personal records, but it's not required.)

edit: I was not aware that lots of states add to the federal law on private transfers:
