IrrationalNumber
Never ordered from flashquark myself, but I have seen in the past that they are legit. I’ve gotten good quality PBT keycaps from Kinetic Labs with really good success. Drop have been fine for me as well.
Paying millions of dollars for a piece of easily replicable cardboard? Only the most well-adjusted would do that!
I can’t watch live tonight, but know that I adored these live threads on r/shudder and am looking forward to taking part in them on Lemmy
ah yes a classic stalemate position
more like operated by a bunch of hack frauds /s glad to see this community migrate to lemmy

Especially when looking at puzzles, always look for forcing moves (like checks) because it forces your opponent to react and makes it easier to calculate for you. In this case, checks can be done by the queen or knight.
- Nd5+ just blunders a Knight.
- Qe4+ loses the Queen.
- Qd3+ doesn’t accomplish much after a move like g6.
- But Qc2+ not only has eyes on the King, but also the Rook on a4.
This forks the Rook and King and forces Black to lose their rook after Qxa4. Rb8 like you suggest does not win any material, and is not forcing your opponent to make a specific move. Hope that helps. ---
