We need to update the meme to reflect our new love for the fediverse and FOSS

  1. Compile and install gentoo
  2. Install lynx 2b. Ah fuck, dependencies
  3. Open a terminal
  4. lynx '3n p4554nt'

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as en passant, is in fact, chess/en passant, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, chess plus en passant. En passant is not a move unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning chess game made useful by the chessboard, pieces and legal moves comprising a full game as defined by FIDE rules.

Are the FIDE rules of chess open source? If not, could we build our own free and open source chess rules. I could host them on my 1997 Debian server

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

yeah the rules are open source - for more information look up chess rule 34

damn bro this server must have more security holes than the tournaments that Hans Niemann attends

lynx 3n p4554nt

For the lazy wondering the output of this:

$ lynx 3n p4554nt

Looking up '3n' first

Looking up 'www.3n.com', guessing...

Looking up p4554nt first

Looking up www.p4554nt.com, guessing...

Looking up www.p4554nt.edu, guessing...

Looking up www.p4554nt.net, guessing...

Looking up www.p4554nt.org, guessing...

Can't Access 'file://localhost/home/maria/p4554nt'

Alert!: Unable to access document.

lynx: Can't access startfile

None of the guesses are valid :( Someone buy one of these!

If you moderate, is it even anarchy?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you remove the comments deemed not anarchical enough, yes
