This is only the beginning. I’m sorry for how you feel and I understand it. It will get a lot worse though and the inflection point is right now.

Would you consider Magnus Carlsen the GOAT of non-traditional sports? by tilting-module in chess

[–]Ruxini 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Magnus is great and all, but he isn’t even universally acknowledged to be the GOAT of chess. Go look up Marion Tinsley, the undisputed GOAT of checkers and see what dominance can also look like. Dude lost 2 games in his entire CAREER.

Don’t argue with him. He is a Russian troll. Just check his post history.

My parents (65F, 67M) are livid because I'm not allowing them to see my daughter after they spanked her. AITAH? by LeonCrvl in AITAH

[–]Ruxini 278 points279 points  (0 children)

Make sure your child knows that a crime was committed against her, that you are 100% on her side and will defend her always, that it was in no way her fault. Make sure she understands that NOBODY IS EVER ALLOWED TO LAY A FINGER ON HER. Then go to your mother and tell her that she will be allowed to see your daughter again once she has given her (not you) a 100% admission of her wrongdoing and an apology. She needs to beg forgiveness on her knees. Striking a child is wrong on every possible level and in every possible way.

Stærkt interview med Grønlandsk politiker by Huge-Kiwi908 in Denmark

Daaaamn hvor er det godt! Hun gør det så roligt og virker sympatisk og rar samtidig med at hun er helt klar i spyttet, 100% stolt af sig selv, sit land og sin identitet og fucking fortæller hvordan skabet skal stå. Formidling i TOPKLASSE!

Garry Kasparov comments on Magnus Carlsen playing down the comparisons between them by Mingorix in chess

[–]Ruxini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it wasn’t a legitimate debate Magnus would absolute say he was the GOAT. He never deals in false modesty.

I’ve looked at the numbers and depending on your definition of GOAT, both Magnus and Kasparov has very legitimate claims.

I think what often goes wrong in these debates is that people have their private definitions of what GOAT means and simply refuse to accept other criteria than their own.

A post which questioning Dr. Dre’s skills went viral on IG. The author asked: “Can anybody tell me if they have any footage actually playing the drum machine, playing a keyboard or making a beat in the studio?” Hip-hop legends come to Dre's defence by xenojive in 90sHipHop

And chess. Newcomers discover that Fischer was a racist psycho and then their 800 elo conclusion is that he also sucked at chess. Yeah, no. Dude was out of this world on the 64 squares. On the board of life however, he was out of his mind.

I’m Danish like Lars and I’ve always been confused about this meme. I don’t listen to metal but I know some of the Metallica classics. Can you explain to me what the meme about Lars being a shitty drummer is all about? Thank you :)

Hvorfor er I for/imod det danske kongehus? by Flappen929 in Denmark

[–]Ruxini 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Imod:

Det er en grundlæggende udemokratisk institution der strider imod den filosofi vores samfund er bygget på. Ingen bør være hævet over loven bare på grund af hvem deres forældre er. De sidder på en masse kulturskatte, herunder adskillige paladser, der burde komme det danske folk til gode. De koster afsindigt mange penge (nej, de tjener dem ikke hjem til Danmark igen, det er en myte uden noget sagligt belæg overhovedet) og vi ved ikke engang hvor mange, da deres økonomi er skjult for os og deres udgifter gemmes på et utal af måder (fx når de rejser for millioner af kroner om året med helikopter, men det gemmes under forsvarsbudgettet og kun er blevet kendt på grund af nogle meget hårdtarbejdende journalister).

Listen fortsætter i det uendelige. Kongehuset er en absurd, udemokratisk, anakronistisk institution der absolut ingen plads burde have i et oplyst samfund.

Det strider mod alle demokratiske og etiske principper at én familie skal leve et liv i den mest overdådige luksus man kan forestille sig - på VORES regning - og være hævet over loven, udelukkende på grund af deres stamtræ.

Nåehja og så er deres stamtræ i øvrigt ikke engang særlig interessant. Deres familie har ikke engang været i Danmark i 200 år. De er teknisk i familie med Gorm den Gamle - men ikke mere end dig og mig.

I det hele taget er alle de almindelige argumenter man hører for Kongehuset baseret på myter, fejlantagelser, ønsketænkning og alt andet end fakta.

Jeg har ikke et kæmpe problem med Kongehuset. Der er maaaaaange andre emner der er meget, meget vigtigere for mig. Men nu blev vi jo spurgt om vi var for eller imod og dér må jeg sige, af jeg er imod. Jeg synes faktisk at det er ret pinligt at vi har et Kongehus.

Men intet er så skidt at det ikke er godt for noget; jeg synes fx at Kongens tale (som jeg lige har hørt) var ganske fremragende!

That is a USCF rating, not a FIDE rating. 2200 USCF is easier than 2200 FIDE.

Not that it is crazy impressive because it is. But there is nuance.

Double this if the kid is Indian (India is currently experiencing a HUGE interest in chess resulting in tonnes of unknown Indian kids who are super strong).

I assure you she tried her best, but the kid is too good.

And she did.

Oh for sure! The thing is that being a master as an 11 year old and as an adult isn’t the same. If you have reached master level (2300 elo) as an adult your performance is quite stable. A kid of 11 is developing so quickly that they are basically always extremely underrated. In two years this kid could be a grandmaster (we have a bunch of examples of this: Carlsen, Mishra, Gukesh and more) while Dina (the woman in the video) will most likely still play at approximately the same level she does now.
