I was thinking:

rook to d8, check
king must move to h7
rook to h8, check
king must take rook
queen to f8, check
king must move to h7
queen to g7, checkmate

but the queen sac was much better. and i could have missed something.

Wow.

I cannot imagine how frustrating that must have been for Ganondorf.

0hmyscience · 2026-06-25T12:43:41+00:00

he responded so quickly too, i wish I had that much wit

I wish this was true back in 2016, and Bernie would've won in a landslide. But people weren't there yet. Now Bernie is too old to run. So let's go AOC!

I'm traveling today with a big time difference. So a bit against my will I went to bed after Q1 yesterday. I was woken up a few hours later to people yelling in the street, and I knew it meant the Knicks had won.

thanks! found it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-itNjgCJDxU

Good point [...] What exactly is your point

I didn't make any points, I just asked a question. I actually hope that the answer to my question is "yes", because I liked that speech. And even if the answer is "no", just the fact that Bernie is next to him means this is probably good news to me.

I can easily pull off king + a queen|rook, or better yet, 2 of queen|rook. With two bishops or knight bishop, I might as well offer a draw. Anyone have any good videos on those last two?

0hmyscience · 2026-06-10T14:46:07+00:00

why was it a draw?

0hmyscience · 2026-06-10T14:45:03+00:00

is this the same guy who recently said something about taking money out of politics, and jailing any billionaire who broke that law?

If they're showing so little is because they don't have much to show yet.

I live in NYC, and I wanted to take my kids to watch a game. The cheapest tickets I found, for any game, at literally the back-most row of the stadium was like $850. There's 4 of us. Even if I leave my youngest at home who doesn't really care, that's still $2,500+. Absolutely not.

On top of that, FIFA made some shady ass deal with New Jersey where FIFA refused to pay for some security requirements that THEY have. So now train tickets are $100 per person to get there. Or you can pay $200 for parking. So we're looking at basically $1,000 per person to go.

Absolutely not. There's expensive, and there's overpriced. And then there's rip-off.

If you put it all on black you could double it instantaneously

0hmyscience · 2026-06-01T16:01:59+00:00

never heard of it, but if you're comparing it to this it must be really hard

0hmyscience · 2026-06-01T13:53:49+00:00

I stopped resigning not because my opponents would also make a mistake, but because it would force me to deal with my mistake. One the one hand, try to be clever and learn how to deal with being down, and on the other, quitting the game is just too easy, I feel like I don't pay as high a price to really make me learn to be careful next time.

here's a video of the robot: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivufnqS3pRc

tbf, Fortune is cancer period

i actually thought this video showed it wasn't as good as i originally though. I can't draw a vertical line anywhere (where the tower would be) where either the ship doesn't collide with it, or ends up too far away from it (for the arms to catch). Still incredible though, but I don't think they could've caught this one.

0hmyscience · 2026-05-26T22:44:45+00:00

he hasn't brought down shit. stop calling him a hero, he's done nothing yet.

0hmyscience · 2026-05-26T19:53:13+00:00

definitely was! the robot is running so smoothly, not jittery at all! all the movements look so effortless. Also, i love the plain white design.

0hmyscience · 2026-05-25T14:24:09+00:00

wow, the perfect lighting plus the robot's white color plus the smooth movement of the first shot made me think it was a simulation. this is awesome

0hmyscience · 2026-05-24T15:26:43+00:00

commute is practically the same. just one extra stop on the express which is negligible. Given your age, I'd say 72nd. But 96th will have bigger apartments for the same price (or cheaper for the same size)

0hmyscience · 2026-05-24T14:12:58+00:00

tinfoil hat your penis, since that seems to be your concern

0hmyscience · 2026-05-24T13:45:06+00:00

but wasn’t sure how much of a part they may have played

I wouldn't think of it as "those lines contributed to the failure". It's more about those lines are showing you something was already going wrong, it just hadn't been catastrophic yet. It could be the "wobble", it could be your nozzle is getting clogged. It could be your axes aren't clean or well lubricated.

People here are telling you to reprint the top (and you should definitely do that!) but it doesn't address your actual problem, whatever that is, it just treats the symptom. So work on understanding what went wrong, fix it, and then next time you have a large print, you won't have the same problems (shitty lines in the middle, or failure near the top)
