Does Lemmy even have enough active users for the next one?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

No. The next one will be the last.

2048 is achievable imo

Looking at the top post in this community, I do not believe in a next one

Edit: I just realized where this comment is at and boy, who did this and how? Is this going viral? In this case, the sky is the limit

This cannot be a legal move

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

It might not be legal for you and me but it's for sure legal for the ruling class

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

It violates the principle of locality, and therefore the speed of light as the highest speed allowed in the universe.

Therefore, this truly does violate a law of nature, and is therefore illegal.

According to Wikipedia, en passant describes the capture by a pawn of an enemy pawn on the same rank and an adjacent file that has just made an initial two-square advance.

According to dictionary.cambridge.org, adjancent means very near, next to, or touching

According to sync, the image is 0.02 MB.

Assuming lemmy.world stores images on floppy disks a diameter of 200mm that have a capacity of 80 kB, floppy disks store information on the entirety of their size, writing data from one side to the other and looping back to the other side when reaching the end of a row(i realized only after i did the math that floppy disks dont work like that) and i didnt make any mistakes in the math i am too lazy to explain in this reply, the maximum possible distance between pieces is less than 142 mm

142 mm, compared to the distance between stars, is a very short distance, meaning that, in this situation, the en passant is a legal move

the en passant is a legal move

Don't you even know the rules of chess? En passant is not just legal, it is forced.

holy hell you did the math

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

How can I find out more about this move?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

It's only legal if you have enough boards

I need this in my life. I am not yet ready to give up. I grew accustomed to this. Let's make it happen! We're all tech people, we know we can just upvote this post the way it needs to be. Its not nice, noone likes to press the trigger on dying deer we just hit with our car, but someone has to do it. The suffering introduced is greater if the trigger is not pressed. Do the right thing.

At this point, it's a Lemmy userbase metric.

I don't know how or why this is a thing, but I'm here for it & you've got a new subscriber!

Well, they added a double pawn move to speed up games, but it broke the game a bit and so they added en passant to balance it out. Don't worry, a lot of people who don't play chess regularly, forgets this rule
