PotentialProblem

Anyone have any details on why the airships were problematic?

Gotta pay the axe tax. No way around it

So, I’m an amateur… but this was confusing to me. I setup the board as you instructed and tried to play it out. You’re right. The way you described it is impossible…

So! I grabbed a pdf of the book you’re talking about and you missed the first two steps of the solution.

Solution is as follows: (White trading rooks is a winning position with the pawn so far up field)

1. Rxh7+ Kxh7
2. Kd5 Kh6

Next is where your part of the solution comes in.. where it discusses that white should move the king farther up the board instead of the tempting Ke6 position. (Because Ke6 would allow the Black king to take the pawn and open the door for the black pawn to become a queen or a draw)

Just realized that you beat me to replying to the parent comment with a similar sentiment!

:fist-bump:

Change happens, but my genuine appreciation of her never went away.

Now, I’ve been married well over a decade… and still… the best feeling is the time I spend hugging her in the morning.

We have ups and downs, lulls and adventures. Life’s not all beer and skittles. But, I don’t agree that it becomes mundane.

“This is the first time since 2018 that a Galaxy S phone made the top 10 list of best-selling smartphones in Q3.”

It’s not technically retro but I’ve found Pico-8 a great way to build retro like games! It’s pretends to be a console of a bygone era and gives a bunch of restrictions on size of game and 128x128 resolution.

The app comes with a pixel editor, sfx and music editor, and a code editor built in. The games are easy to share and you can play them on a mobile browser. On the downside, it costs 15 dollars for the app.

While I agree on rent being too damn high, I think I draw the line as follows.

If you agreed to pay X and there are mandatory fees on top of that, that’s bullshit that should be illegal.

If you agreed to pay X and you want to use a method of payment that will make the other party receive less than X… that’s on you.

It feels a lot like… if someone agrees to pay me X and decides to pay me less than X… that’s some bullshit.

Now that’s some bullshit! A few for ACH should be illegal!

Yeah I’m surprised they allow the em to pay rent via credit card. Since that reduces the amount the landlord gets, it seems fair that it would charge a fee to cover that difference.

I wonder if the fee goes away if a checking account is used.
