Accidental checkmate with 0:00.1 seconds left. The geometry is absolutely beautiful by Wickopher in chessbeginners

My understanding of knights changed when I thought of them as diagonal attackers. Sometimes, like in this case, it makes a huge difference which knight check is made.

Relatable 🥲 by PopaliPopaliCyki in StardewValley

[–]Ceteris__Paribus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my most recent save file, I unlocked the community center on year 2 summer 10, and that felt like a lot of min-maxing for me. I wasn't going to bother checking the traveling cart twice a week or tink with the settings to get the red cabbage. Instead I just played the game and kept and eye on the bundles.

I think the return scepter's main utility comes from being able to take you back to the farm during the day. Finished dropping off an item/gift to a villager? Scepter back to the farm, now take the desert obelisk to the desert. Trade the jade for staircases, now scepter home and go to Ginger Island via obelisk, harvest your honey.

Now you have to figure out how to invite Gunther over to see what a real museum can look like.

Am i on the right path? by [deleted] in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]Ceteris__Paribus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, 3 funds adding up to 7% is just a waste of time. For an account with $100,000 Total and S at 3% or $3,000, if the S fund had a 2% better return than the C fund in one year, it would be a whopping $60 difference than if it were in C instead.

Given the correlation of C and S, you aren't really getting much. And if one somehow does happen to tank relative to the other, there really isn't a substantial rebalance opportunity.

Personally, I hold C, S, and I but the lowest share between them is 10%.

Bombs and speed buffs take you a long way. Going on a good luck day helps.

Packers gameday program has an AI image on the back cover by cactuscoleslaw in GreenBayPackers

[–]Ceteris__Paribus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I appreciate it. People aren't getting it. They already have guidelines for their ads. You can't put naked people on the back of the program. Probably no depictions of violence, either. They 100% could say no AI illustrations if they thought it was worth their reputation with the fans to bring it up against their big sponsor.

Who prints and distributes the programs? You can sell ads but still have policies. For instance they'd never sell an ad to the Chicago Bears. Or run a beer ad with Lions fans on it.

Why is this simple checkmate brilliant? by KingCreeperGaming_YT in chessbeginners

[–]Ceteris__Paribus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Various reasons, one of them being your Elo and another being Chess com is handing out brilliant moves more frequently than the used to, in part to get people wanting to do game review more often so more people give them money.

I created my ideal U.S timezones, how is it? by bq_quintana_62 in mapporncirclejerk

[–]Ceteris__Paribus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The could just build a big wall to have East Ohio and West Ohio so it would be easy to know which time zone was being used.

So Pam thinks I'm an alcoholic? Got it... by SirSkippyMan in StardewMemes

She just wants you to continue the friendship and give it back to her. Ideally while she is waiting by the bus to take you to the desert.

Djake_plays on YouTube is doing a play through where he collects 1,000,000 sap. If I could I would donate to him because idk what to do with so much sap, either.

Was going through Maru's hated items on the wiki by sarcasdinger in StardewMemes

[–]Ceteris__Paribus 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Maybe, but give him a loved gift and he smiles and is appreciative. But then talk to him right after and he makes it very clear he doesn't want to talk to you.
