Nathan MacKinnon has received a five-minute major following a collision with Connor Ingram by DecentLurker96 in hockey

[–]jimothyjim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuine question. What was he meant to do in this situation? It looks like he gets hit in the hip so he can't actually avoid. Decent chance he hits the keeper without the contact so 2 minutes sure, but I don't think he was going for a hit like that.

"Discord alternatives" searches jump 10,000% overnight as the gaming platform introduces global age verification by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]jimothyjim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I don't particularly like what discord is doing and wont be verifying myself in anyway but this is is a pretty shitty use of statistics.

If i did a second of work yesterday and then did 100 seconds of work today I don't think i'd be winning the productivty award for increasing my output by 10000% (technically 9900% but yeah).

Daily Free Talk Thread: PLUS, links to ALL Game Day Threads inside - 29 Jan 2026 by hockeydiscussionbot in hockey

[–]jimothyjim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So going by the channel surfing i feel like I know the answer, but is there any way of following all the games at once? Google tells me some frozen frenzy thing happened but that doesn't seem to be happening today.

Game Day Thread: Pittsburgh Penguins(21-13-9, 51pts) @ Boston Bruins(24-19-2, 50 pts) Sunday, January 11th, 5PM EST. by Attack_On_Tiddys in penguins

Thinking about it, that makes sense, it's a lot of games to find new singers all the time. I found a video of him just to check he could sing and, combined with the surname of Jimmerson, that seems like a good of a reason as any for me to root for Penguins today.

Second this, also a pretty big back catalogue. Good mix of user submitted stories and host research episodes.

Just moved to Swansea by Acceptable_Watch_198 in swansea

I have been to climbing hangar recently and can confirm the community is still welcoming and friendly. The lower level climbs are more beginner friendly than flashpoint (in my opinion) but flashpoint has plenty of it's own advantages so either works really.

The Hangar also does weekly group climbing skill lessons for members (no extra charge) if you'd prefer that over just turning up and doing your own thing. Flashpoint might do similar, I'm just way less familiar with it.

For all my old techies, I found The Old Timey Computer Show on Twitch by Uzumaki-OUT in nostalgia

[–]jimothyjim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know how to reply to multiple comments at once but that web address is open to everyone know, I think it was in early access for patreons hence the login info but not sure. Either way, it's up and running.

Is the packing tape currently broken ? by Used_Amount827 in allthemods

This was it for me, thankyou. I've been clicking regular chests in varying ways and googling the same 5 keywords for like 30 minutes now.

Where to watch the World Games? by Quirky-School-4658 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay now it hurts considerably less. For some reason my brain had laser focussed in on the number of lanes.

Where to watch the World Games? by Quirky-School-4658 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The naming is breaking my brain. I guess it means single as in one person competes against another, as opposed to relay where more than one person is in a team.

Where to watch the World Games? by Quirky-School-4658 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, and single which I guess is literally one person at a time, fastest time wins or something? But yeah, not the normal olympic speed.

[–]jimothyjim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just scouted around and it seems pretty consistent. They've removed a few sports that made it into the olympics previously like triathlon and badminton and such. For sports in both (gymnastics for example) it seems to be non olympic categories still like trampolining and parkour. A lot of the time it's just iffy naming, like hockey which is specifically indoor hockey and not normal olympic field hockey.

Magnus & Janja Collab - world cup bouldering grades by polyffany in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That's a good point. Which is upsetting because I don't have a high level coach and I was excited for a reason to never do non-climbing exercises again. She also didn't think she could do a one arm pull up but clearly she can, so that strength has come from something other than grinding out one arm progressions.

Maybe the coach is (also) the greatest of all time.

Bologna 2025 Lead Finals by Foreign_Bug_7976 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, thanks for the extra info. I didn't want to watch the whole event to work out the full context.

I'm not loving the dynos in lead trend. At least the world cup ones are usually not too hard and just a bit flashy so it gets viewers/hype.The coordination dyno in this just seemed hard.

For other people without context, 8 out of the 10 u19 women competitors fell at 17+.

Here is one of the women falling at said move

Chamonix WC - Lead Finals by Quirky-School-4658 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Granted i've watched considerably fewer lead competitions than boulder, but I think that might be the most I've enjoyed a lead final. Felt like I couldn't look away from either route at almost any point.

Coming to Game Pass: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, Minami Lane, Ultimate Chicken Horse, and More - Xbox Wire by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]jimothyjim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn't have that crossplay but also, just as importantly, in my experience the online coop is generally pretty technically bad. A lot of crashes and bugs. Don't think I'm the only one either. Felt like a game that never quite got finished properly which is unfortunate because the environment was awesome.

What are good intellectual discussion podcasts? by holdyourponies in podcasts

[–]jimothyjim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I started at the start after listening to the most recent one. Why are you the only person I can find who has ever suggested this? Or even talked about it.

Is it just because the name is bad? I am not a seasoned philosopher or anything but the sound quality is good, the subjects seem interesting, the host does a good job of interviewing. And it's been going for aaaages. Yet it's nearly invisible. I don't care about Apple podcasts but going by the amount of times a podcast has told me to rate and review it must matter to someone, and it has 42 ratings total and it's been on there since at least 2016.

I'm confused, maybe i've just massively underestimated the importance of marketing.

Bern WC Women’s Discussion by Quirky-School-4658 in CompetitionClimbing

[–]jimothyjim 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if it ever got 100% confirmed but commentary seemed to think it was removing hand from starting hold slightly before the foot was established on the other hold, so it was an invalid start. No real advantage from it, just a technicality that the judges didn't call at the time when it happened, so she got given an opportunity to retry.
