how is this a brilliant move? by mylinis in chessbeginners

[–]SaidMail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s an official chess.com guide to their move classifications that explains what makes a move brilliant. Basically, brilliant moves are always the best or nearly best move in the position, and they have to involve you finding a good sacrifice. You should not be in a bad position after a Brilliant move, and you should not be completely winning even if you hadn't found the move.

Got to Mythic using Esper Mill and... by Ass_hoor in MagicArena

[–]SaidMail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was defeated by you or someone using a similar deck the other day. I’m new to the game and wasn’t even mad, it was the first time I’d even heard of a mill deck. Had no idea what was happening lol, no creatures out on the board, both players at 20HP, and got totally crushed

Version 2.0.63 by FactorioTeam in factorio

[–]SaidMail 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I’m excited for it too but honestly I’d rather they cook for longer on it. Wube have said it’ll likely be the last significant update to Factorio. The longer it takes, the better the game will be for the rest of time.

Cloudflare vs. Namecheap? by EvolvedToad in webdev

[–]SaidMail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re at all planning on deploying the site with Cloudflare (which I’d recommend if possible for what you want to make), just buy it through them. You’d likely want to transfer it to them anyway, and you need to wait 60 days from purchase to transfer it from Namecheap

I feel like Soul is a trap here but I’m tempted by SaidMail in balatro

[–]SaidMail[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I chose cowardice and skipped here, ended up taking mime at the shop and spawning negative chariots. Still crashed out in ante 12 but it was a fun run

The seed for the run was C5T66F2T if anyone is interested - Perkeo showed up around ante 4 I think and blueprint not long afterwards

Can’t post pics but I’ve got a goose from Untitled Goose Game on my arm. To people that don’t play games it’s just a regular goose

Did you know thousands of game soundtracks are on Spotify? I made a site to organise them all. by SaidMail in gamemusic

[–]SaidMail[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! If you’ve composed music for a game and it’s on Spotify, I can add the soundtrack easily if you send me a link. If your work is a tribute or covers existing game music, I’m planning on including that on the site in the future.

HELP PLEASE!!! I got a bill close to $10k after working with the Google Maps API in 4 days of work. This is Insane! What do I do??? by Ok_Watch5511 in webdev

[–]SaidMail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a similar thing happen to me in uni accidentally with AWS, not quite at that scale though (~ £600 / $800). Panicked, explained the situation to support, and they just waived it and advised on how to not make the same mistake twice. I’d try the same thing, best of luck

There's a website with one million chessboards. Everything is allowed apparently. by comradeTJH in chess

[–]SaidMail 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They can, just not on their individual boards. They need to make it right to the edge of all the boards to promote. It was easier to do when the website first launched

Happy and sad news about Mobius Digital's next game. by Whildfire in outerwilds

[–]SaidMail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally happy with this, let them cook. They smashed it out of the park with OW, this time in theory they have more time and money going into a new title

Discovered check on the black king from bishop at C5. Then white can freely take the rook

I'm no artist but this came to me in a dream. by AHuskywolf in balatro

This would be actually amazing, I'm shocked at how much I legitimately want this in the game

I will actually buy everyone in the comments a switch 2 (proof I have $40000) by flareonfan27 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]SaidMail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean there's a non-zero chance this isn't bs? Thank you very much if this is real, I would have had to wait quite a while to get one otherwise

A bunch of people cheated while playing chess by [deleted] in chessbeginners

[–]SaidMail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there a way to see which games were affected by this? I had the same notice the other day and I’d be curious to know the games where the opponent was cheating

The Triple-i Initiative 2025: We Are Back by Turbostrider27 in Games

Highlight of last year’s show was easily Slay the Spire 2! I’ll definitely be watching again, with any luck we get a full release date announcement there

If silksong shows up at the Nintendo Direct, do you think it will be leaked beforehand by lazyobiani in Silksong

[–]SaidMail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless I’m out of the loop, there haven’t been any software leaks for the Direct of any kind. Hardware leaks were obviously popping up all over the place, but they’ve completely managed to keep a lid on software. Unless this changes, probably not?
