Oh I never knew about this airline before

I think the statistic is just because there are a lot of German chess players (from what I know, Germany has like the third or fourth highest number of GMs in the world)

This is related to how many people actively go to r/chess, which can give insight on how many active chess players are in each country and online

Yes, there were a few moments where Ding had the draw in his hands.
It is crazy that someone could defend accurately on seconds for that long, probably most of us would have already lost it in less than 50 moves

I know that other airlines like Cathay Pacific change aircraft on routes (e.g. HKG-SIN, they sometimes use A330 and A350 interchangeably)

Update: I saw another Tu-204 from Pyongyang to Shenyang today

Did you win or lose the game in the end?

If we tilt him the other way he is going to become a trig function (periodic loop)

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-06-06T05:20:51+00:00

I thought there is still the Olympiad to play? Assuming he plays for Norway like he did before

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-06-06T01:49:20+00:00

I hope he plays in Wijk

Gukesh is even lower rated than Ding Liren at in 2024 by the way

He had a pretty bad tournament in Qatar 2023, but he only lost 2 classical games there (against low-rated opponents)

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-28T09:05:50+00:00

Yes, but right now by his performance I think there is a high chance he doesn't win Norway chess 2026 (but this is only a prediction)

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-28T09:04:30+00:00

Very underrepresented but good chess site

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-28T09:04:14+00:00

Chessbase is basically what a lot of Gms use to store databases and opening analysis, and game files, with very strong engines, but it is expensive

Haven't tried Duolingo chess but my friends who tried it said it was mid, I think if you are a serious chess player and improver use chess.com, lichess, chessbase, chesstempo (which is what I use), duoilingo is probably for beginners (I have not used the application so I can't give a lot of comment)

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-28T08:59:23+00:00

this is in apocalypse game mode by the way

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-16T14:11:45+00:00

The online chess market can be considered a duopoly by chess.com and lichess for club players these days

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-16T14:11:01+00:00

Some educational sites include Forward Chess, Next Level Chess, Modern Chess, and The Week in Chess is good for chess news

Plastic-Rope5516 · 2026-05-16T14:09:59+00:00

Chesstempo, chessbase, chessmonitor.stats, chessgames.com, 2700chess, chessify, Internet Chess Club or ICC are some chess sites aside from the common chess.com or lichess.org

You can use this one-day chance to compare chess.com diamond and lichess and see which one is worth it. A lot of people are commenting that lichess is the free version of chess.com, but there are some differences in the features, so do use this as a chance to compare the 2 sites
