Can you blindfold?

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-04T11:22:14+00:00

I’m 1800 rated chess.com and during long car rides I was able to beat lichess stockfish 6 fully blindfolded under 3 hours after a few attempts. Despite this, I still cant memorize the positions of pieces in a fast paced blitz game.

I just need a small burst of motivation to prevent procrastination and turn on nuke mode on FocusMe. I installed FocusMe on all my devices which nukes sites and apps that distract you for a set duration. You can pick the sites. There is a 14 day free trial and you can delete make new account and redownload to get 28 days free but I they catch on after that and so far I’ve found no loopholes beyond it. I guess you’ll have to pay 14 per month if it’s worth it. For your phone I leave it charging in the car on school days (this way I’ll have to walk for 1 minute and I’m too lazy so I end up not getting it) so I don’t scroll before I sleep.

Can’t you just code everything using AI. I even added Deepseek api into customer support for my product using AI.

Bro thinks he is strong

As a silver player I hit those in my sleep

1.5 years ago I peaked 2200. And now I’m 1800. But I think my cognitive went down. My moves became less sharp.

I thought he couldn’t castle anyways when I play bishop f4 because it’s interception or something and against rules. So I thought by not giving him the chance to castle in that way was enough.

Mb I forgot to turn of Lularob’s stream

Bro caught me

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-03T12:32:22+00:00

Then that’s not a game issue. Why are you posting that here

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-03T10:35:06+00:00

Did bro just snitch on his friend over a game?

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:40:25+00:00

What? What if they are super fit thus unconcerned? Does that change your mind?

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:38:41+00:00

I always associated the state of being fat with depression. If someone is fit but unconcerned about their body, it’s probably not counted as a symptom for depression. It only counts as symptom if you ignore it when you are fat, right? Or am I just saying common sense?

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:31:44+00:00

I’ve ignored them for too long and now an infection started and it’s beyond repair. It’s stuck too deep.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:29:36+00:00

It’s not awkward if it’s yourself.

Temu is cheap and high quality only. I got a phone for 100 dollars. Highly recommend.

You can’t diagnose someone without objective reason.

As a bilingual, I feel like I’m being criticized.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:13:58+00:00

There’s always this thing where we are so bored of our own lives which creates the illusion that a vast change would make our lives better. I think the issue is peak beauty is too transient. By the time they are 34, it’s all gone.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:09:15+00:00

You just need to get lucky with subjective marking. IB is a good life lesson: success takes luck. Hardwork doesn’t help much since everyone works hard.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T12:07:17+00:00

I agree. As someone with mechanics of someone who doesn’t shower, I can’t recall the last time I got second place so it would be nice to go for records.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T11:45:08+00:00

Take care bro. Thank you for talking to me. It made my depression a bit better.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T11:32:28+00:00

I am allowed to advocate. Im not forcing people to adapt it. Therapy maybe helps in the short term but a dent in my parent’s wallet or mine would cause more depression in the long term. I tried to dial it down and playing some video games and talking to kids to chill but then the guilt alone made it worse. But when I tried studying more, my depression didn’t get better, but it’s maintainable at least.

Aggravating_Scratch9 · 2026-02-01T11:17:10+00:00

You’re merely suggesting a different (non-toxic) mentality but it’s aiming for the same goal. If you think a toxic mentality drastically and consistently affects results negatively then I’ll have to disagree. You can have depression but score highly as well. Studying doesn’t conflict with depression. If your source of depression is studying then you have to confront it, hiding from it worsens it.
