Family of taekwondo instructors saves Texas woman from sexual assault
  • Even if Krav Maga teaches more attacks and more "leathal" attacks. i would hope 5 of them at the same stage as these individuals, 4th degree black belts and instructors, would be able to restrain 1 individual without permanent damage.

    When i think of someone that is that well trained i think they are trained in more than just the moves. Going through my martial arts training we were taught the fighting mentality and spirit as well as just the moves.

    Edit: I've never been through either of these training styles so I'm making assumptions and may be wrong.

  • How heterosexual couples met in the US
  • I dealt with that stuff too. I would try a couple times and if it goes that way, just un match. Do it for yourself, you are worth finding someone that is legitimately interested in you. Just have to go through some that are not a long the way

  • How heterosexual couples met in the US
  • I get that, in my experience it was just weeding through the bad ones. I had my fair share of un matches/ghosts/a holes.

    I also hated taking pictures of myself and had a mediocre at best bio. What worked for me was not getting emotionally invested in the apps/matches.

    The matches that i got and went out on a date or two with i was very up front that i was still using the app. It wasn't until our 4th date that my partner and i deleted our apps.

    Anywho, just wanted to share some hopefully positive advice. You will find the right one for you! Just have fun with it and try not to take it seriously

  • How heterosexual couples met in the US
  • Yeah, that's how i started using them as well, it just increases the odds. I went through a phase of "wanting to be in a relationship" and that was the focus of the apps for me. I would read every bio and then decide if i swipe right or not and think about how we would be good for each other. That was taxing and took a lot out of me emotionally.

    Eventually i realized it really is just a numbers game. So i just looked at pictures and if i liked them swiped right. Then if we matched i would read the bio and have conversations.

    That being said i was the one that got swipped right on and am thankful to have deleted those apps a year ago. I feel for those that are stuck in the online dating hellscape.

  • A cool guide of commonly believed myths
  • I'm just about done with lemmy to because of assholes like you. Jesus christ its worse than reddit.

    All it would take is, hey not how sugar highs work you don't actually get energy from them, what actually happens is a dopamine rush that makes people happy and happy kids tend to run around and play more.

    Took me 2 minutes of googling to find that. Did i ever say this list is bullshit? Should be burned? Has no factual basis?

    No, i just gave my experience, what i seem to have seen in my life, and question the list. I'm happy to have a conversation about it or i wouldn't have posted.

    But you just go around insulting people and comparing them to Trump supporters. Grow up. Have a damn conversation. Stop trying to turn everything into an argument

  • A cool guide of commonly believed myths
  • Yeah, that's the one that has me doubting the entire list. My kids do get a "sugar high".

    The wording they use is off and may be technically right. but if we are going based off the wording they use i don't think it would be a common belief.

  • Rule
  • Not the 529,000 views that the video got? Was that satire or is there actually a channel that is that popular for candy crush and state of the game updates on it?

    I don't want to search for it and poison my recommendations for years to come

  • Nearly 20% of Microsoft SQL Servers running have passed end of support
  • Very much this. I dislike M$ as much as the next guy but it isn't always their fault. The biggest reason we have outdated SQL in my experience is older software that clients do not want to pay for an upgrade for that uses a sql backend that will break if we have the databases in compatibility mode.

    Just like M$ with good reason (mostly) end of life's an OS they need to no longer mainstream support older software versions.

  • Used to do this to my rule all the time
  • I live in the midwest and have seen plenty over the years to not trust my dogs training 100%. There was a dead cat a mile up the road from my house yesterday that got hit by a car.

    Every once in awhile an owner decides to walk their dog from the dogpark entrance to their car without a leash and it runs off and gets hit. It's not the dogs fault the owner is a dumbass

  • People can still be kicked off juries for being LGBTQ+. This out congresswoman's bill would end that
  • The point op is making though is that in court a attorny can strike people with minimal reason. Which includes all those protected classes. They have a limited amount of those strikes but they can do whatever they want with them.

    For instance, if the person on trial is part of "religion A" and that religion is known to stick together with a cult like fervor an attorney could strike strike a juror of religion A for "cause".
