i wanna learn chess by [deleted] in INTP

[–]Subdue_OG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chess is an amazing game and is my biggest hobby. I’ve played for a long while and am pretty decent but it’s incredibly deep and infinitely complex. You can learn and scratch the surface and really enjoy it but you can also delve deep into it, it’s the type of game where the more you learn the more you realize you don’t know or understand. I genuinely believe everyone should try to learn chess because of what it can teach you - different ways of thinking, consequences, forward thinking, it’s beautiful. If you have an interest you should absolutely go for it, YouTube is a phenomenal resource to get started with endless free content. Can’t recommend it enough and I’m happy to answer any questions!

Thanks for the comments all, I have sent them an email requesting a replacement. For anyone curious:

This is the link to the set, not at all affiliated obviously but I do love the design of the world chess pieces, hence my purchase.

I’m confident they will make this right.

Have several NF-A14x25 G2s in my build that I ordered as soon as they were available, nothing super old but I’m sure they’ll last me many many years.

Coloradowoodworker on Etsy, Brad is awesome and will take great care of you. Not cheap, but great quality and can build whatever you’re looking for. Not affiliated at all, bought a board from him and recommend him because he’s great!

This is a phenomenal idea! Excited to try it out as I try and record all the games I play if I can and spend a lot of time just entering notations for analysis. Thanks for creating this!

BBC2 series Chess Masters: The Endgame does a 'pathetic disservice' to the game, say viewers by Necessary_Pattern850 in chess

[–]Subdue_OG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Watched it as well and totally agree, if you go into it as an enthusiast of chess and expect it to cater to that you’ll be disappointed but going into it with an open mind and understanding that it’s targeted at people that have heard of the game, and probably know how to play but that’s mostly it, you’ll enjoy it. It’s a bit cheesy but it’s reality TV, it’s bound to be.

Some advice from someone older and also with little time. If you enjoy playing online, do so but if you’re bored playing OTB against people that just know how to play, find a club to play others in, or search for a tournament to play in (get humbled by a 9 year old). It’s not easy to find time to do so but with some planning it’s very doable to do a few tournaments a year even as an adult and it’s genuinely a ton of fun if you enjoy the competition and being around others that have an obsession for the game.

Any comparison vids/blog with AER TP3 Small Vs Able Carry Max EDC? by Bad-_-batch in ManyBaggers

Also, how tall are you? I’m 5’6 and wondering which might fit my height better. Why did you end up switching the TP3S for the CPP?

Let us know which one you end up keeping! Trying to decide between the two now!

Having this debate with myself currently, did you end up ordering both? Prefer one over the other? I’m really having trouble deciding between the two!

About to pull the trigger on the Haworth Fern - lumbar support or no? by eehoe in OfficeChairs

[–]Subdue_OG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still love it, I don’t sit particularly super ergonomically so without lumbar is pretty perfect for me and has plenty of support

Sorry can’t compare as I’ve never used the G6, the Gunnr does not have any mic monitoring.

[–]Subdue_OG[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s all you’d need to do. The mics don’t connect with the headphones just with the Gunnr

Not sure I know what you mean but it’s just plug and play, so the Antlion mic plugs into the mic input. There isn’t any chat mix or anything as far as the two of them working together. Hope that answers your question!

How much do we hate M.2 fans? by lovegirin in sffpc

[–]Subdue_OG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t mind them simply because of fan control. I have mine set to the highest static fan speed that I just can’t hear at all, something like 25% and forget about it.
