wow ang sarap ng fresh account

Im super happy we’re finally getting cold weather here in Manila after being scorched for 3 months
Moving from Reddit. This website is clunky, but it’s workable.
Agreed, but then again, it’s still a work in progress—and barely ready (if at all) for the impending flood of new users starting tomorrow when the blackout starts—so I’m willing to give it a huge amount of slack.
However, coming from
old.reddit.com, the look and feel of this site is more akin to how I think the redesign should have been, a cleaner upgrade to modern design sensibilities, but without the unnecessary stuff.Being of an old Reddit user myself, I think this is fine. It just needs more features injected in and capacity to handle an influx of users.
Absolutely agree.
For one, I hope that the instances are beefed up enough to withstand the influx of users. Secondly, I hope that the devs work on features to make Lemmy as good as, if not way better, than Reddit would ever be.
For iOS users there’s a beta app for Lemmy, called mlem. You can install it via Test Flight. Unfortunately, there are no moderating functions so mods are stuck using the web app. 😬
Thanks! It’s much easier to use it this way kaysa browser. Hahaha.
Wala bang gusto makipag chess diyan 🤔
Boxing pwede
Actually I’m looking for a sparring partner din, preferably yung wala ding fighting experience katulad ko pero kung malapit ka baka pde dm mo sakin location mo
I’m no chess player, nor have ever learned it. Once upon a time, however, nangarap ako.
I joined your community to lurk and hopefully absorb things, pasensya na.
Then it’s your time to shine jok, pero baka gusto mo aralin kahit mga moves lang ng bawat pieces it will take you approximately 20 mins if you do a bit of searching, I can lend you digital book for complete chess beginners if you ask
Ah, alam ko naman yung basic moves, lol! Pero nung tinignan ko yung post mo dun, na-nosebleed ako, parang ang intimidating even though aware naman ako sa notation na gamit dun. (Algebraic notation yun, tama ba?)
And yes, I think that digital book might be helpful for me if I were to dive in deeper. No promises though.
Lol🤣, natawa ako sa algebraic notation kasi wala akong alam don(any kinds of math kahit basic like arithmetic wala ko alam gano), then yun agad inassume mo, anyway babaguhin ko na lang dapat kasi may arrows yun kaso excited ako ipost kasi sobrang dali ng kalaban ko may farah pa sa pangalan HAHAHA Dr. Farrah ikaw ba yun? hehe but yung ginamit kong strategy is anti knight strategy natutunan ko siya sa “How to Reassess Your Chess 4th Edition” ni Jeremy Silman book siya para sa mga players na may rating na 1200-2000 very basic lang yung anti-knight strategy basically ang gagawin mo lang doon is iba-block mo yung second possible advancement points ng knights kasi siya madalas ginagamit na weapon ng mga beginners kaya sobrang effective niya sa ratings na 400-2000, anyway a common misconception is that you should be good at math when playing chess is wrong(best example of this is Bobby Fischer) and having also a high iq is not going to help in chess either(Bobby Fischer(who claims female chess players are not good) a genius is defeated by Judith Polgar whose chess journey is complete hardwork, they have both special place in my heart, another fact Wesley So is a Filipino chess player before he migrates to US, sorry for nerding out huhu 😓
We’re all nerds here (for now, I assume), so no worries.
And I was just pulling the words ‘algebraic notation’ up from half-remembered shit I’ve absorbed, so I might be mistaken. I did look it up on wikipedia upon reading your reply though, so at least sure na akong may ganun nga (at hindi ako nauulyanin). But yeah, I guess that just reveals how little I know.
Thank you too for clearing up the misconceptions about chess. I know that math doesn’t help with chess, nor IQ. What is helpful, I think, is the ability to recognize patterns, and to (quickly) choose which strategies are most helpful in the current situation.
I’ll start small muna siguro, play against a computer AI every now and then, while reading up and building up the knowledge to recognize stuff once I play against humans.
If you decide to play against real player though, be aware that some uses AI to cheat and become unbeatable you’ll know one if most of your plans is predicted by opposing side, even Magnus Carlsen can’t win against cheater he can draw a match utmost also I think Ding Liren is now the world champion if I remember correctly
Ah, I see. Thanks for the head’s up.
Parang ang laking problema ata yan sa competitive chess. I remember hearing about the buttplug cheating controversy and laughing about it before reading about it and then almost immediately overthinking the hell about it—like detecting morse code from a buttplug, what about data bandwidth of the ass nerves? how about the lag induced by the decoding step? how about sending data from the user through the buttplug to the supposed accomplice? does one have to do kegels to train for it? All those questions, and more.
Sorry if that previous paragraph is disrespectful about competitive chess. At any rate, I came to the conclusion that there are better ways to cheat at competitive chess than through a buttplug.
Di pa rin tumitigil ulan dito sa cavite, dyan sa inyo?
Lol taga cavite din ako at tumigil na ulan d2, Cavite talaga yung Florida ng Pinas
Shet nakakamiss yung Cavite (pero hindi yung mga subdivision saka krimen hahaha)
Bacoor, upland or paternate mamser?
Imus
Is this automated?
Unfortunately, no. Wala pa yaya dito sa Lemmy! 😄
Ang hirap naman haha
I realized something: mukhang English ang default language ng post, pero, tulad nitong post na ito, may iba na Taglish naman talaga ang gamit.
No big deal, I guess, but I am reminded of this post from the snoo site.
626 subreddits gone dark. You can check it here: https://reddark.untone.uk/
700+ na. I hope the larger subs follow suit
Totoo talaga na you’re gonna miss your dog’s puppy days/months, no?
My panganay will be 1 year old next month and ang aga nyang lumagpas ng puppy stage! Mas madalas nya na gusto ng “me time” tapos di na sya gaanong tumatabi samin sa pagtulog. My heart is not yet ready pero I am quite proud how good of a kuya he is sa new puppy namin. Hahaha. Haaay, dogs are angels. 🤍
Going to Tarlac for a friend. Feeling a bit worried because of the weather. I don’t wanna be stuck in traffic when it’s raining 😔
