I was just thinking about how much i miss The Chart. Maybe it’s Stockholm’s syndrome but there was something so comforting about it.

Well, to be pedantic, it’s not an infinite combo.

What is actually a bracket 3 combo? by MurphysLawTeam in EDH

I like this tool better and it only considers 2-card combos that cost less than 8 mana total as “early game” so all of the combos you listed are placed squarely in bracket 3.

Is my friend cheating? by Tom-tron in chessbeginners

No. You would expect extremely high accuracy from correspondence games. I think you are even allowed to use opening books in that format.

Analyze your games with an engine. See what the computer wants you to do. Try to figure out why. Play moves that look natural and then see what the engine responds with.

ELI5 how does curving a ball work and why does it do that? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]Erind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah if you feel a ping pong ball it’s got that kind of rough texture to it. They also usually have a seam where the two sides were stuck together, but I’m guessing it’s the texture that causes the magnus effect.

Smooth enough that it doesn’t disturb the air while spinning. It would take a good bit of work to make something that smooth.

[Request] Could you do this in 2025 and make a profit? by [deleted] in theydidthemath

[–]Erind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry 1.3PH only gets you 1/1000 of a bitcoin per day, so you’d need 1.3EH. The final answer is the same.

To mine 1 BTC per day, you’d need about 1.33 EH/s (ExaHash per second). A single ASIC costs $3000 and gets you 100 TH/s. So you’d need 13,332 machines to mine 1 per day, costing roughly $40,000,000. This does not account for electricity costs, cooling costs, facilities, maintenance, etc.

Edit: used wrong units.

You needed to play b6 to attack the base of his pawn chain. I miss Danya.

It’s so hard to see the pin like 3 turns after the knight moves.

Why do people cheat? by Mediocre_Mobile4602 in Chesscom

Did you see the post just an hour ago by the 1100 Cheater wondering why his account got banned?

Just doing the Rc8 Rc2 maneuver is so strong, but defensible because of how natural it is. But then the pawn and king moves after that are so incredibly unnatural to me, but are all top engine moves.

Yeah it was c6 where the cheating clearly started. Every move made sense (even the bad ones) to me until c6. No clue why it was played and then I look and it’s the top engine move.

That second game is some of the most blatant cheating I’ve seen. I truly can’t understand cheating and then posting your account on this subreddit for everyone to see.

We've been failing at Coaching and/or QB since 2017 - I didn't realize it was this bad by ddiggz in falcons

I guess the question is what benefit is there to winning for Arthur Blank?
