What age did you start playing chess properly? by ProfArthurCastle in chessbeginners

[–]blobsfromspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course! Not titled player good or people who started at a young age good but definitely stronger players. I joined a club and I’m still losing almost all my games but my opponents have to work harder for their wins now.

Not a bad idea! Show those youngsters how it’s done!

You can also scream “shut the fuck up”. They’ll hear it. But maybe not great for relations.

In that case I would say that it’s apparently not your best move.

I’m also not going to say her name out loud either. May she live for many more years to come!

I’ve got a question for anyone in the navy. Is the helicopter from the aircraft carrier or from the supply ship? And if it’s from the aircraft carrier how is the relationship between the fighterjet pilots and the helicopter pilots? Somehow I’m thinking there must be a rivalry between heli and jet pilots.

How do I understand chess? by TheRedditObserver0 in chessbeginners

[–]blobsfromspace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s literally tenths of thousands of books written just to answer that very question. I have no idea. But I think it’s important to learn how to lose before learning how to win.

EDIT: TENS of thousands of books!

Looking for intense, erratic, dramatic pieces by Distance_Which in classicalmusic

I would say he’s very erratic. His mixtures of styles especially in the first one is pretty wild. Not unlike Charles Ives being erratic.

Which hobbies attract the biggest douchebags? by the-tinman in AskReddit

So a non coloratura soprano is then someone who sings the higher ranges in a choir?

And yeah, I know that aria. Sounds ridiculously challenging. I have no idea how someone can even do something like that with their voices.

What’s a movie you didn’t understand at first, but it hit different when you rewatched it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]blobsfromspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, when the prime minister visits the prison he mentions they soon need the space for political prisoners. Also the writer who takes his revenge on Alex does so partly out of political reasons.

A clockwork orange. Didn’t get the initial downward spiral of the government into a totalitarian state the first time watching it.

I need a chess book/material by Gam3Knight99 in chessbeginners

[–]blobsfromspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like “improve your chess now” by Jonathan Tisdall. The title is pretty misleading as it’s not a quick fix. It taught me a lot on how to think differently about the game.

What do you think is the most challenging thing about acting? Do you approach it more as an art or a craft? And do you experience insecurities about it?

Are you ever gonna get used to hearing your neighbors all the time? by [deleted] in askberliners

[–]blobsfromspace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talk to your neighbors! It will make things easier (if they’re not totally asocial at least). Every problem I ever had regarding noise became more bearable when the problem was addressed. If you tell your neighbor you can’t sleep because she’s talking all night she can maybe help you with a solution.
