Why is this not checkmate?
  • You can't take other pieces when moving from a green square. On this board only the black and yellow squares are live - the green squares are out of play. Useful to rest and feed the horses if you can get to them.

  • People who press the button at the pedestrian crossing and then cross anyway right after: how do you think the 1997 Kyoto protocol affected the industrial economics of the late 2010's?
  • When it happens to me, which I will add is not often, I justify it to myself by thinking that the cars would have required to stop whether I waited for the green man or not. Once you press the button it sets in motion a chain of events that the as of that moment unaware drivers are subject to. The fact that a gap then presented itself and allowed you to cross is inconsqunetial to those drivers.

    If anyone is to blame it's the makers of the button that don't give it a recall.

    In many ways that line of thinking is paralleled in how the world has justified disregarding the Kyoto protocol and how we find ourselves in the current state of affairs. Maybe that is why the crossing button is so absolute and final, who knows.

  • Removal of piracy communities
  • That's very interesting, thank you for highlighting this. Edit: how are you seeing the bans? The link seems to be to a website sales platform.

    I am very interested to see the justification for that ban - it seems extremely heavy handed.

    For me, the exact same heavy handed, take it or leave it, attitude of the reddit admins is exactly what made me decide to leave that platform and come here instead.

    The mod note is not encouraging.

  • I assume you're from NZ. Only the All Blacks have the luxury of thinking that Beauden has wasted his potential.

    He's a well rounded world class player to everyone else. So are both of his brothers. Truly a nation blessed for Rugby.

  • Joey for reddit stopped working
  • Boost still works. You need to make yourself a mod - to do that make a subreddit on desktop. There is a Vanced patch as well which I have used, but as far as I am aware it's not required.

  • Reddit discontinues coins and awards after switching to paid API
  • I cannot work out what the benefit is to them of doing this.

    Someone somewhere has paid for those awards. Is it because you can get gifted premium and not pay for it yourself?

    It's like the company had a collective aneurysm.

  • Went to return my trolley at Lidl and found this. Since there is no way I'm giving up my trusty token, I guess I'm a trolley owner now
  • It's like that riddle with the fox and the rabbit and the cabbage that have a boat that can only hold two of them and ilthey need to get across a river without eating eachother on the boat. Or something.

    Unfortunately I failed at step 1 by coming on a bus. Still need to get the trolley on the bus to go home, to get the coin, back on the bus and move on to step 2. There is no other way.

  • Went to return my trolley at Lidl and found this. Since there is no way I'm giving up my trusty token, I guess I'm a trolley owner now
  • Trollee or not trollee. That is the question we must ask ourselves upon rising daily. Do we let the wobbly wheel of life lead us astray to the central isle of distraction, or do we overcome it and stay true to the shopping list of life? No one can answer this but ourselves, and it is a daily battle.

    Any suggestions on getting it onto the bus?

    My Boost for Reddit is still working

    I cannot convey how happy it makes me that we are going to get Boost for Lemmy. This morning I woke up and fully expected Reddit to be dead to me with the closing of Boost.

    To my surprise it's working as normal. Is anyone else getting that, or know how or why that's happened?
