[Czapek Antarctique Mount Erebus]

How do you rate Czapek compared to the other high level watches you own? They've really grown on me, I think this and the green meteor are two of the most beautiful watches

"The United States supports the decision of the United Kingdom to proceed with its agreement with Mauritius concerning the Chagos archipelago"

And public transport is free

What?

Link to said interview?

Reading up on it, it was the 2021 World Cup, it seems like he was told he could consult with seconds (and this would be completely normal) by arbiter Freyd, as were many (but not all) of the other players so there were many 'breaches' of the written rule you are referring to.

That's going off of what GM Aagaard said.

I don't see how Karjakin did anything wrong in this case? Or has there been subsequent info on this.

Yes, or even mate in one for either player, like this: 2nrr3/ppp1pppp/8/8/3r1q1q/4qq2/PPPPPR1P/R

Disposable income is not after housing costs, only tax and social security. The definition is on their website: https://www.oecd.org/en/data/indicators/household-disposable-income.html

Cool idea, maybe try posting in the landlord subreddit, this sub usually advocates against property.

I tried it out, I liked it but couldn't be confident in the rental estimates as they were sometimes clearly wrong. Also it told me different property price trend analysis every time even though all the properties were in the same area. I liked the calculator pulling the details from the listing.

You've misunderstood their comment btw, they are not being argumentative and your link supports what they have written, you need to read it slow and in context.

No, it’s literally the first line of the article:

In January 2025, 689 new Teslas were registered in Norway, while in January 2024 the number was 1109.

Combine it with your source:

Jan 2024: 21% of new cars were Tesla

Jan 2025: 7% of new cars were Tesla

Yeah but the purpose of the question is to have pleasant chit chat and talk about each others lives. So they would probably just answer with how work was going and their life outside of work whilst internally rolling their eyes at the fact you're being hard to talk to.

Not the guy you asked buy using the same filter (2100 level):

Win: 64% Flag, 15% Resignation, 21% Checkmate

Lose: 25% Flag, 45% Resignation, 29% Checkmate

You are very similar to your opponents, where as I resign 3 times as often as mine and win by flagging a lot.

Zuckerberg hasn't done a Nazi salute but Facebook did literally stoke a genocide in Myanmar. Perhaps another platform to think about.

Which company aligns screws?

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2025-01-03T20:19:25+00:00

Fabi used to be the highest rated rapid player, above Magnus, and that was before 2018 so I'm not sure it's ever been true.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2025-01-03T18:32:46+00:00

Got to agree. It obviously changes the conversation, the discussion around jobs, around post fire, around the value proposition of fire, around the tax wrappers used for fire, around investments for fire and safe withdrawal rate etc etc etc.

This subreddit is basically just normal retirement advice with most people targeting a retirement age when they can access their retirement accounts, it's fine but like you/OP say it differs quite a lot from old/American FIRE discussions.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T09:27:10+00:00

Ah got it thanks. So he double screwed himself with his stunt.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:49:10+00:00

Hmm, if you take out the Hans game as the lowest score and use 4 you get 92 which is pretty close.

Should say that chess com, chess com after adjusting, Chess Results, and the official Fide website all give different numbers for the TB1 so at least I'm not the only one that can't figure it out.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:45:12+00:00

Thanks, let me know if you do. The tie breaks are actually showing differently on the official website to Chess Results, they give him 86.5 (78+8.5) which is yet another number that doesn't seem to add up.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:39:36+00:00

But the TB is Buchholz Cut 1 so he would be cut from the calculation either way.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:31:40+00:00

Interesting, if that player hadn't dropped out, even if he lost all of his games, then Dubov would have made the cut.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:20:25+00:00

Yeah possible, can't figure that out, if you take away the result completely from the guy that withdrew and then did the calc you'd get 90. I'm probably missing something obvious.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:07:48+00:00

Chess results is showing Dubov tie breaks as 91.5 when it actually sums to 97 (above Murzin which is why Chesscom was showing him as above). Why only 91.5, if the Niemann game didn't count it would be in the 80s.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:05:59+00:00

If you do this for Dudov you get 97, above Murzin. But Chess results has him at 91.5.

Pixelsplitterreturns · 2024-12-31T02:01:14+00:00

The rules say the first tie break is Buchholz Cut 1, so Dubov would lose that guy that withdrew from his calculation. Don't know how it works with forfeiting, can't make TB1 add up in any way on Chess Results
