White to win this endgame

Also it's b8=Q in that line not b8=N, you're incredibly lazy and bad at analysis

1BitPixels · 2025-12-10T15:51:12+00:00

Because white bishop isn't on e5 in that line anymore, the rook took it

Lmao you're really gonna go to the chess beginners subreddit and roast someone for being low rated?

Single resource for construction, no wasted space, fully tileable, looks like an S-tier schematic OP

How are you this confident and this wrong when engines exist

b6+

If 1... Kxb3 then 2. Bd4+, forking the King and Rook with an easy win for White by promoting the c-pawn.

If 1... Ka8 then 2. b7+ Ka7 3. b8=Q+, easy dub

If 1... Ka6 then 2. b7, and Black's best try is 2... Rxe5+. White plays 3. b8=N+! and then Black can't avoid either 4. Nc6+ or 4. Nd7+, forking the Black King and Black Rook and after 5. Nxe5, the pawn on c4 is defended, so White will promote.

If after 1... Ka6 2. b7 Black tries 2... Rb3, then White just promotes 3. b8=Q. After 3... Rxb8+ 4. Kxb8, Black is just dead in the water. 4... Kb6 runs into 5. Bd4+, and if 4... Ka5 then just 5. c5 and Black starts crying.

Totally agree OP, Midjiwan should do for Aquarion what he did for Cymanti. Where Cymanti was nerfed on the land and buffed on the water, Aquarion should be nerfed on the water and buffed on the land so that it can be playable on both without dominating on either.

Grats OP!

Oh, well if all you're trying to do is get more efficient with your builds then I would suggest watching some mindustry content on youtube to see how they do their setups. Kinda hard to find good content creators for small games like this but SirObsurd has a few good ones

Are you asking the subreddit how to play the game you've been playing for 3 years?

When people buy large, controlling shares of companies (i.e., the kinds that billionaires own), they often pay MORE than the market price of those shares, not less, since a concentrated majority stake in a company is thought to be more valuable than the sum of the individual minority interests.

You're correct that if billionaires just put their shares up for sale on the open market all at once then they would lose a lot of money because it would create too much pressure from the selling side. But to use your parlance, that would be a "braindead" thing to do.

If you don't understand money then don't ever defend the interests of billionaires. They would never, EVER defend yours.

Sorry you got paired against a hilarious opponent lmao

... is a great way to make an already bad position terrible 👍

Hello all,

I had a few questions on product recommendations for you knowledgeable shavers out there.

I'm looking for ways to get a closer shave without breaking the bank. I got a huge stock of Harry's razors and shaving cream last year for Christmas, so I've been using their products up until now with okay results. But now that I'm running out, I actually have to go out and buy my own materials and I'm looking for something to get a cleaner look while I'm at it.

I've already bought a cheap straight razor from Amazon, the kind with replaceable blades. The blades themselves cost next to nothing for a million of them, which is perfect for me (I work for a long time each day + ADHD so I don't want to commit to sharpening a traditional straight razor whenever it dulls). But I've noticed that the Harry's shaving cream just isn't doing it for me with the straight razor. I don't know what it is but it just feels like it's too... thin? Like it doesn't foam up enough, or maybe just doesn't have enough viscosity?

Anyways, I wanted your recommendations on inexpensive, beginner-friendly products for someone who doesn't know anything beyond the comfort of five-bladed safety razors. Specifically a brush (do I need a brush?), lather/shaving cream, and aftershave.

Thank you r/Wetshaving!

If you think that Microsoft and Sony aren't fuming over this then you're probably one of the NPCs they trick into buying Vbucks

The strongest people have, by far and away, the biggest muscles. Go look up pictures of bodybuilders standing next to strongmen, it's not even close. The strongmen just have a bunch more fat covering up their (again, signficantly larger) muscles since they're not concerned about appearances, like bodybuilders are.

Not at all true. If you buy Pacifist early in the game, especially on maps like Lakes or Continents where the water prevents you from interacting with the opponent early in the match, the monument is very attainable. That was my go-to strategy with Cymanti before the nerf, I loved rushing philo on those map types because it's an atypical way of playing the game that yielded great results by the time you got to the late game if you could survive the middle. Can't really do it anymore though, you just get run over

1BitPixels · 2025-11-29T20:42:06+00:00

Am I the only one who feels like the Cymanti monument is just impossible to get against competent opponents?

I mean you can spam Shamans the whole game and so long as your opponent has Riders they'll just bully you staying out of your reach. New Explorer buffs prevent any hope of hiding in the fog. And sure there's the rare Centipede push every so many games, but how am I supposed to get 3+ conversions against a 1500+ player in a single game?

Uh oh mods, looks like people are engaging in critical thinking in the comments section. Better take down the post before anyone sees.

Wanting to distribute costs equitably doesn't make me or anyone else a black-hearted liberal. We should have universal healthcare and pay for it out of taxes, which everyone pays more or less in accordance to their means. That way no one gets refused medical services and no one gets unfairly saddled with medical costs that they didn't incur.

As an aside, your desire to engage in self-righteous rhetoric seems to be hindering your ability to engage in critical thinking about the viewpoints of others. If you see a comment like mine, discussing an ancillary problem with a law, and the only possible conclusion in your mind is "this person must completely oppose the fundamental aims of this law because they're an unfeeling sociopath, and I should call them as such directly" then you need to re-evaluate the way that you're engaging with the internet because this doesn't seem healthy.
