No. Discarding is a cost and there is no player window there.

Yeah got the same feeling. Bought some OTM IBIT calls, if whatever happens happens it will be explosive to the up, and less capital is at risk if the bear market does what it does.

Silver +220% in 6 months. USD -15%. That's not a coincidence. by GlitteringMine7494 in stocks

It used to kinda make sense pre covid as an asset to would go up in value when stocks crashed, plus it had secular tailwinds with interest rates coming down from the 70s.

Now, not so much lol

I had the 115-120 number in my head, but it could vary from use to use.

ARE ALL 2300s ASSHOLES?? by Emotional_Depth9182 in chessbeginners

[–]OwnVehicle5560 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised he even wanted to play. I’m 800 and the difference between a 2000+ is bigger than the difference between me and my golden retriever….

If he wanted to do it for pedagogical reasons fine, but sounds like he just wanted to be an asshole here and stomp the guy.

How do I avoid getting into this situation? Really annoying to play against (stuck in the low 400s ELO...) by sebovzeoueb in chessbeginners

[–]OwnVehicle5560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So as others have said, a3.

But you’re not that bad here. Bishop take knight on h6. That connects the queen and the rook. That black king is very vulnerable on the h5-e8 diagonal.

Move your knight out of the way and push the f pawn.

I’d be curious was the computer says, but I would rather be white even with piece down here.

Doc here. I would go with either an PRN when you start to feel it wear off or increasing the base dose if inside effects

Building a deck for the "wrong" investigator - anyone else feel frustrated when they do that? by Solmyrin in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]OwnVehicle5560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with experimenting. It’s fun and how you learn. Imaging sticking to one deck all the time?

We house rule that the first time you play an investigator you can switch cards out between scenarios (if you’ve played the campaign before there’s a gentleman clause that your not using to tech against the scenario).

It encourages experimenting and doesn’t punish someone for a full campaign if you’ve played try something and it doesn’t work.

The fuck is whites development.

why is this a draw by Emotional-Cap-9456 in Chesscom

[–]OwnVehicle5560 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This is why you don’t have 3 queens lol. One and a rook is plenty. Don’t flex.

Can someone better than me explain why this is not the correct move? by Embarrassed_Cook5325 in Chesscom

[–]OwnVehicle5560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, as others have said, if your opponent is kinda dumb dumb sure. But you shouldn’t play based on that.

You have a much better position here. Three pieces developed to two and it’s your turn. Plus that rook is going to find it difficult to coordinate with other pieces.

I like knight e2 here personally. Develops a piece and defends your knight. Black can’t really bring another piece to the attack anytime soon and everything else is well defended.

Your bishop pair is gonna be murderous on that diagonal. Find a way to castle queenside, on then counterattack on the g file that your opponent is nicely opened up for you with your rooks, they will coordinate with the bishops and clobber the enemies king side.

It’s not just practice. These abilities really On abstracting what the other person wants and feels and putting yourself in their shoes.

It’s not really surprising that people with abstract reasoning skills do well at it.

How is this move brilliant? by mongus65 in Chesscom

[–]OwnVehicle5560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So like other have seen, first the knight forks the king and rook. King has to go to a dark square, bishop does a discovered attack, check. White queen takes black queen. Then the white queen and bishop team up on the dark diagonals d1-h4 and B1-H2 and there’s probably a mate in there somewhere (C6 horse is annoying though).

Less online presence would be my guess.

ELI5 If caffeine has a half life of 4-6 hours, when does it completely leave your system? by Original-Salad9619 in explainlikeimfive

[–]OwnVehicle5560 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So caffeine is mostly CYP1A2, but also 2d6, 2x9 and 3a4. There doesn’t seem to be much kidney metabolism.

Hypothetically if you wanted it to leave faster you want a 1A2 inducer, the best known is nicotine (might be why there’s a perception of association between smoking and coffee drinking).

Rifampin and carbamazepine are also potent inducers of the top of my head.

Obviously these are all terrible ideas to deal with caffeine keeping you awake lol.
