How did you choose your guard style? by ninenickel in bjj

[–]YeljanCore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Z Guard - (All in no-gi) I can hook and control with the bottom leg to some degree and use my upper leg as a knee shield. Also, I like to place my upper foot where I want because I'm flexible enough to. I usually like sitting the upper foot on my opponents hip, can cross it inwards for easy inverts and when I want to be a dick, I'll grab their wrist and go spider with my foot pressing in on their bicep for easy sweeps.

Do you go easier on a white belt that says he doesn't really know what she's doing? by yeeeepyepyep in bjj

[–]YeljanCore 6 points7 points  (0 children)

People generally don't need to say they don't know what they are doing to know that they don't know what they are doing. You should be able to tell and adjust accordingly. When white belts tell me they don't know what they are doing I just reply "I guess we'll find out" and go from there.

Can I maintain my BJJ level by attending open mat just once a week? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]YeljanCore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A perfect week for me is class twice a week that includes some drilling and rolling and then one day for open mat (only rolls). Open mat being a different gym with a different set of practitioners. It's one thing to get your drills and rolls in with the same people day in and day out, it's another to roll with a new set every week. There aren't enough gyms to keep it purely new so you have to rotate.

On one side there is drilling/rolling (physical) and on the other side there is note taking, studying, visualizing and state work (mental). When you're not on the mats, you MUST prepare mentally for course correction, learning and growth. So if I had to recommend based on MY experience it would be 2x1 with some heavy mental prep.


[–]YeljanCore 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think 4-5 days a week is counterproductive. I do think that mental work plays a large part in improving game along with what I believe is the biggest differentiator; variety. I can get away with training in class once a week (if I'm lucky twice) and then an open mat at a different local gym. Open mat once a week can be VERY productive especially if it's a DIFFERENT open mat or you can cycle through a few gyms. You'll meet a lot of talented people and pick up on the nuances of styles and games.

/r/conspiracy why don't you care that the election was hacked by the Russian? by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]YeljanCore 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let's pretend that the election was hacked by the Russian. Of course we would care. We would care because our national election process's security is so weak that the Russian can hack it and sway an entire presidential election.

Do you have any idea what that would mean? Or rather, what is your definition of hacked? Are you talking about psychological "hacking" by convincing people they should vote for Trump because Putin's cool and Putin likes Trump so Trump must be cool? Or are you talking about electronic hacking in which case all or most of the voting machines would be compromised? Do you have any idea what it would take to complete such a monumental task?

Just think on what scale that these voting machines would have to be altered in such a way to not be noticed on a national level. I would challenge this Russian hack hypothesis and it's plausibility based solely on the scale and number of machines to compromise. This is because they aren't even connected to a network. The votes are passed via a memory chip and thoroughly tested.

But let's then pretend that the Russian got ahold of the source code that updates the memory sticks/chips. Who guards/owns this and how is it connected and/or protected. Do we have such lax security practices that we would allow, yes allow, because I doubt we don't protect the code to the voting machines, the Russian to get in to alter it in such a way to pre-program the election results? Are we really that vulnerable?

I can think up about 10 ways for this to go down but each way would assume there was someone on the inside with a VERY coordinated effort and they just don't let anyone handle this data. They keep claiming the Russians hacked the election but no one has given any specifics to how they might have done that. If anyone has any hard evidence or a well thought-out plan I'd love to hear it. Just because "17 federal agencies" say so means dick to people with brains, especially in light of the fact that we know for a fact that shenanigans go on daily in those federal agencies and the leaders of these organizations are bought.

Question to you Mr. Dealpool_666, upon asking your question on whether or not we care that the election was hacked by the Russian, what evidence are you providing to back up this claim? A link to the NYT will not be accepted, neither will a statement by an Obama puppet on CSPAN. We can get as detailed as you want, just provide your facts.

Is lesser evilism illogical? by [deleted] in Anarchism

[–]YeljanCore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Firstly, lesser evilism implies subjectivity but if we pretend this doesn't exist and you MUST choose between the lesser of two evils, then obviously it would be logical to choose the lesser of the two.

This issue here is that this isn't a case of the lesser of two evils. We have other choices so I wouldn't consider it two evils only. There's Gary Johnson who holds some decent beliefs and has done a great job in his state as governor but that's not the point.... The point is before asking which is the lesser of two evils in this particular voting year, understand that there are more than two candidates.

You're question implies a limit of two choices when there's not and in this race that is very dangerous of you don't want the two evils in office. These topics get brought up to discredit and marginalize the other candidates to a point where the voters believe there are only two choices.

The "Red Team Planner" 4chan posts referenced in the current top Clinton Foundation corruption post. by lachiemx in conspiracy

[–]YeljanCore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice post. But this is either fake or an pfishing attempt. They aren't going for your valuable CC's but they go for your valuable ideas. Submit your ideas to further their proposed 'read team' scenario or provide cracks in their story for more intel. It's a great way to capture ideas though... I've noticed this more and more lately too. Anyone else?

An Omar Mateen from Orlando, FL had an empty Facebook account from 2015, but lists himself as 'a Proud Muslim from Pakistan'. Page deleted immediately as I was archiving. by peppaz in conspiracy

Would anyone consider thinking about 50 shot dead and 53 wounded? That's at least 103 bullets. How long does it take to shoot off 103 bullets? Ok, sure, maybe 1-2 minutes if you are REALLY good and can shoot a single person with each bullet but let's get realistic here. A pistol and a semi-automatic (automatic if modified) would take a considerable amount of time to kill off 50 people and injure 53 so in that time how many people do you think would pull out their phones and try to record some shit going down before they die or as they try to get away? More than 0 I would presume. Ok, so let's pretend that no one actually records video of the shooting.... how many eye witnesses have we seen? How many people were around the outside/inside at the time that got away and could say at least SOMETHING about the shooter? Where were the bouncers? Did he off them first and then go for the gays or did their bouncers not have any training in this sort of thing? Alright, maybe no bouncers... what about surveillance cameras from the club or adjacent businesses? Also, where are the reporters on-site and/or at the hospital? Fifty shot dead and 53 wounded... how much work does that take from ONE person? Anyone smell something here?

I challenge anyone go to a nightclub and pick off 50 fucking people... it's impossible... and then wound 53 more. This is a joke.

I always loved the article on how to make a nook because it made me laugh so hard. Picturing someone waving a bucket around over their head, attempting to simulate a centrifuge to separate the U-238 from the U-235 just sounded ridiculous.

...good shit

Is America kissing Israel's ass long enough to prepare for the Samson option? by YeljanCore in conspiracy

[–]YeljanCore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believing that nobody has the ability to sneak nukes all around the world is not backed by any evidence and is pure speculation, and this is not to say that they do isn't speculation as well but, which one is more likely? Under the guise of safety and freedom, America has done this very thing out in the public so what's to say that others haven't in secret? Also, are the American people who control the nukes Jewish? If so, then there's your proliferation of nukes backed and controlled by Jews so yes, they would have to capability to 'sneak' nukes around the world.

Of course, this would kill them too but that's why it's called the Samson Option and other 'races' would obviously die along with them.

If the Rothschild's disappeared would Israel as well? I'm not so sure but I would like to hear why you think so other than it's a Rothschild micro state. A state for what purpose and why is control ultimately governed by their presence?
