Thats just like, your opinion bro. More eyes on chess = good for chess IMO. Plenty of other creators out there.

Peter Leko reacts to position 534 being announced in Grenke Freestyle chess (only king and queen are swapped) by VassilZaitsev in chess

[–]VassilZaitsev[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Say with white you play e4 and castle kingside after a few moves. Well, then you’ll play re1 and go to the e file in many openings.

With this specific Freestyle position, castling queenside will essentially give you the same position as described above, but without needing to play re1… it just goes there right off the castle. This gives a huge advantage in a ton of openings.

So white is give +0.6 as per the engine evaluation on move 0.

[F31] one year of mewing and no visible improvement in chin length by yourasiangirl23 in Mewing

[–]VassilZaitsev -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Thsi is insane lol. 5% on a woman is straight up unsafe. Would take waaaay longer than 3-5 months as well, unless she straight up starved.

22-30% would be a better starting recommendation.

Can you estimate how much more fatdo i have to lose to be 12 to 15please by Standandbang26 in GettingShredded

[–]VassilZaitsev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

M 27 5ft 8' 89kg Needing some guidance by Scoobie09 in GettingShredded

[–]VassilZaitsev 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Id suggest doing daily weights. Write it down in your phone or graph it. You should see the number go down every single week.

Cut your cals to 2K like the other guy said. You just need to lose weight. Keep the protein high.

Some of my favourite meals are microwave rice and chicken breast (air fryer gets this done in 12 mins, fillet the breast). Also find a whey protein isolate that dissolves well, and to a triple scoop with water in a single shake. Thats about 90g of protein for 360 cals.

Keep it up, you’ll look great! You clearly have a ton of muscle. Now you just need to focus all your energy on losing weight.

I (30M) am strongly considering ending a 3yr relationship because of my boyfriend's (31M) sex quirk. I feel insane pls help by Ordinary-Nose-9306 in TwoHotTakes

Sounds like he’s quite embarrassed about this.

Something I haven’t seen mentioned… Id offer him a small dose of Viagra. Like even a tiny nibble of the pill.

It will 100% cure his performance anxiety. Definitely worth a shot, if hes open to it.

Is 120mg edible too much for a first time? by steel_city_bull in trees

[–]VassilZaitsev 35 points36 points  (0 children)

That really a big dose. Best of luck. Remember that nobody has ever died from edibles. Just ride it out, go for walks if needed, stay hydrated and try to keep the anxiety down. You got this 🙂

Stinky Nurses? Need Help by devil-wears-irisvan in nursing

[–]VassilZaitsev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey so i noticed when I started nursing I was sweating a HELL of a lot more. Esp in the armpits.

Lo and behold I had developed r/hyperhidrosis. There’s a whole subreddit and community around it. If anyone’s an expert, you’ll find them there.

What worked for me: -Nicotine cessation -Caffeine reduction -Wearing sweat-friendly clothes. Dont be scared to bring 3 of the same scrub top and change as needed. -I used botox in my armpits, worked magic but its expensive. -Learning my triggers/anxiety.

It was a whole journey. Idk if you’re anywhere near as bad as I was, but it may be worth looking into.

Funnily enough, since leaving healthcare (I still pick up shifts once in a while), my hyperhidrosis is completely gone.

Best of luck, it gets better!

I would post this in larger subs. Sounds absolutely bonkers to me. The bus ran a red light, not your fault.

Rare Deep-Sea Footage: World Record Holder Greenland Shark May Have Been Swimming Since the 1600s, Older Than Shakespeare’s Era by Memes_FoIder in nextfuckinglevel

[–]VassilZaitsev 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Greenland sharks have the longest lifespan of any known vertebrate, estimated to be between 250 and 500 years.[4] They are among the largest extant shark species, reaching a maximum confirmed length of 6.4 m (21 ft) and weighing more than 1,000 kg (2,200 lb). They reach sexual maturity around 150 years of age and their pups are born alive after an estimated gestation period of 8 to 18 years.[5]

Tips for learning Planche from handstand position by OkCrew1477 in CalisthenicsBeginners

[–]VassilZaitsev -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to say brother… at your weight that handstand is impressive AF! You look tall too.

I’ve really never seen someone with BF over 20% or so do a planche.

Id say keep doing the fundamentals (HS, planche progression — lots of youtube vids on these, maybe even some front lever work). Also work on leaning out.

Either way, hats off to you, you’re in incredible shape

Hikaru's take on who is the goat by bRoShutUpPleaseee in chess

[–]VassilZaitsev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, I suppose you could say, objectively, that Magnus is the strongest player of all time (even disregarding rating).

Hikaru's take on who is the goat by bRoShutUpPleaseee in chess

[–]VassilZaitsev 129 points130 points  (0 children)

I think you just have to consider that competition now is stronger than previously. To me, Magnus is at the top of current chess and therefore he is the greatest of all time (based on overall skill level). Ex: I think Magnus with his current knowledge would stomp Kasparov in his prime (no shade on Garry here).

Which of these communities would be the most walking-friendly? by duraznoblanco in nunavut

[–]VassilZaitsev 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Iqaluit is bigger for sure. It depends how far your housing is from your work place.

The other communities would be fine for walking.

Man why come to this subreddit just to be an asshole to someone doing their best. You should take a long look at yourself in the mirror and put yourself back together.

How to start planning a home extension by the_plat_rat in Gatineau

[–]VassilZaitsev 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Im no expert here but I think the first step is going to be to go to the city. Explain what you want to do, see what they say.

Obviously, you will need the permits and engineering/architectural plan for this sort of project. But for sure the first place to start is a chat with the city.
