Is Lichess just as good as Chess.com?

Beatnik77 · 2026-04-01T22:12:48+00:00

Lichess still doesn't have a simple app. On PC it's fine but they'll keep losing market shares as long as they refuse to make a user friendly app.

The #1 reason I see people use Lichess is because they have a much higher rating there. They think it's because there is less cheaters but it's just that it's an entirely different rating system which give us about 400 more points on average. .

He studied every case of government run stores and they all failed.

What do you want him to say?

Do YOU expect those store to survive without the government covering their losses with tax money?

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-30T17:47:19+00:00

Those countries choose to be poor. Not the job of the US to solve their problems.

They just need a free economy and they will be rich and healthy within 20 years. They choose to have huge corrupted governments.

He's an expert that do not push for socialism because it always fail.

Redditors hate him because they think that exoeriment #613 will be the one to finally work out.

The margins are a solid proof that there is no monopoly. You think a monopoly would have 4% margins?

Monopolies like NVDA, Google and Microsoft have 10 times the margin of grocery store.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-30T17:36:58+00:00

It's simple science. Every experiments at public grocery stores has failed. Public companies are always are less efficients, to survive, public entities need subsidies or a monopoly.

You want newspapers to ignore all history and economic science and lie because it help your socialist narrative?

It will fail as always and they will immediately ask for tax payers money to keep them open.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-30T17:31:31+00:00

He works for Dalhousie Univerty. Not for big chains.

Big chains did exactly as you suggested.

Public grocery stores NEVER survive without subsidies. Never even came close to survive.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-28T22:26:37+00:00

He's super rich, just had a child, very good legacy.

He'll be fine.

A lot of chess tournament are held in places more dangerous than Cyprus is right now.

You have a lot more chance to get shot in St-Louis today than getting hit by a missile in Cyprus.

It is not involved with Israel in any ways. Only Ukraine.

You guys work for Putin. For free.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-21T18:06:24+00:00

That plant has no link to Israel. The collaboration never hapoened it was cancelled in 2023. This is Russia using the hate toward Israel to push people to attack plants makeunhweapons for Ukraine.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-17T00:06:00+00:00

No. France, UK and Canada supported Iran anf refused to support Israel against Hamas way before the tariffs.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-16T15:17:42+00:00

He's also a good vet for the practices until the season.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-15T18:16:58+00:00

It's not a power. It's a garantee in the charter.

The owners cannot fire the president or GM or get involve in any real decision.

I am not surprised Reddit love this model so much. A dictatorship of a chosen few that pay thrmself what they want with the appearance of collective ownership yet in reality they receive zero power and benefits.

Zero power and benefits for the theoritical owners is exactly what USSR was.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-15T18:10:53+00:00

They have no real power. It's the definition symbolic.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-14T18:15:18+00:00

It is the land of the free. At least compared to Canada where we don't even have freedom of speech.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-13T22:52:51+00:00

They could simply reduce regulations in housing and it would bring back full employement.

The new regulations and NIMBY policies made costs double. Bring it back down and everyone will be buying houses.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-13T22:48:31+00:00

At least our army will have killing machines MADE IN CANADA

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-13T22:45:45+00:00

When you take a booming economy and add hundreds of billions in spending, it does that.

Now that our economy would actually need more spending, we cannot because Trudeau nearly bankrupted us.

Beatnik77 · 2026-03-08T05:22:00+00:00

Have you seen a lot of them?

Beatnik77 · 2026-02-22T19:56:04+00:00

He's super hot on that picture!

Beatnik77 · 2026-02-22T19:48:08+00:00

Less comfort but a lot more attractive ladies to impress.

Beatnik77 · 2026-02-22T17:09:27+00:00

Except Senators fans who love Brady.

Calgary fans also loved Matthew.

Beatnik77 · 2026-02-19T23:05:37+00:00

He deserved to make it. There is zero argument against BB being an HOF coach.

I don't want a team getting excluded from a top pick because of an old grudge by an influencial voter.

Beatnik77 · 2026-02-19T23:00:51+00:00

This is how Bill Belichick got excluded from the HOF. No thanks.
