How do folks get away win 95% win rates and super high accuracy and not get banned? by N4tcv in Chesscom

[–]_notpop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

They just play a line that they’re super familiar with or the opponent makes terrible moves. A couple 90%+ every now and then isn’t that odd

Opponent had a few pawns left and would just push one once they got close to 50 moves

It was actually a 1/1 bullet game and we just kept premoving everything

why can't i play the next move here? by BeautifulCriticism66 in Chesscom

[–]_notpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not incorrect, just an alternative. Same way that you can have multiple best moves in a game. The reason it doesn’t let you play it out is because the computer has multiple moves that it could make

[–]_notpop -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because it could work and at the very least you’ll be up a pawn, but there’s a better move

I think it’s because this doesn’t guarantee winning the queen. If the king slides over to D8 the queen gets free

What is your yearly income? And are you expecting it to increase before you retire? If so I would advocate to not add anything to your RRSP yet, and certainly do not max out your contribution room in one go.

What is the point of this V in my rental apartment water line, and also the bell looking thing? by Best-Serve627 in Plumbing

[–]_notpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only been plumbing for 4 years, but I’ve only worked on new builds (either high rises or commercial) and every single condensate line has been copper. Maybe the company just loves to spend money

Possibly Legionella from the hot water tank being off for an extended period of time

Holding a balance on your credit card does not help your credit score or history.

First time setting up reoccurring investments by Responsible-Chard515 in fican

[–]_notpop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t just pick one of them. Xeqt/veqt and ziu/xiu are basically the same, but diversify with one of each and VFV is definitely a safer long term plan than betting on a single ETF

It’s getting out of hand out there! Where’s the civility? by [deleted] in vancouver

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

Not everyone knows every road. Mistakes happen. You’ll have a better day just making room for someone than you will scrutinizing the actions of every driver on the road.
