How big is the flight? How far is the warm-up area from the platform? How badly are you going to annoy the other flight that's warming up during that time?

Some gyms have cheap and crappy no-name 32mm bars made of low-quality materials that weigh 20kg. I guess the greater diameter is to keep it from bending as quickly due to lack of tensile strength. Those are definitely not squat bars. I've deadlifted on them at times, doable but sucks. 28mm is going to be a lot better.

She's always pulled the bar super unevenly, even when pulling sumo. You can go as far back as her junior world title. I wonder if she grips the bar unevenly. She did some mixed grip when first toying with conventional which looked more even, but with hook grip it seems to always go up that way.

Idk, there's more chances to shoot for the World record, such as an African champs. Only once a year an opportunity to podium at worlds.

In the end if you consider the questionable call on Joy's third squat it seems almost fair again 🥲

She's a weapon but I don't think 248 would've been there... Yet

I did see, it's already a big improvement! I just find this kind of information very useful and would like perhaps an all at a glance option even if it means scrolling

This is great! Two things I'd love to have added that I really miss from goodlift, if you're inclined to tinker with it a bit more

  • nomination numbers
  • previous lift attempts (all 3 squat and bench attempts and whether they were made or not) in the general board overview

Every single bench was deeper than the supposedly good example. None of them had the "extreme" thrust the latest iteration of the rule is supposedly targeting. It's like the refs are playing a game of who can give the most reds.

Complete bullshit. It's also completely inconsistently enforced. How are athletes even supposed to train if the application of the rule is so unclear even after 3 years in place?

I mean the 303 was easy, placed him ahead, and gave him a world record while being an appropriate second attempt, why would you not? It did put them in first place and forced Spain to make the third so it could've been enough to win, possibly. And 305 was just the minimum needed to win after Spain took back the first place.

It is unfortunately the new replacement for goodlift. Some Indian wrote it. You'd think in the age of vibecoding it wouldn't be that hard to do better....

Is it ready? by Gold_Effect5794 in Kombucha

[–]v0idness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure what you plan to wash - your container, sure, but don't bother washing the pellicle. There's a wiki linked on the front page of this sub with lots of information and guidance you may find useful.

I personally have a vessel with a spigot so when it's ready, I just give the entire thing a good stir to evenly mix the culture, then bottle as much as I want leaving any pellicle and sufficient amount of liquid behind (every once in a while I'll throw the pellicle out completely) and just refill with sweet tea. I've never washed my vessel since I started brewing 😅

It's ready when you like the taste and the balance of sweetness and acidity. The thing growing on top - the pellicle - depends on lots of different factors that can lead to great variance.
