Check.. I believe. Though I have a feeling it will be of little effect.

Sounds good right about now. Will have to settle for a hamburger I suppose.

Roman Catholics, when they go to heaven, will be glad that some people are suffering in eternal hellfire.
This is doctrinally enforced joy at seeing others suffer. — baker

This is incorrect. In Heaven, Earth and its resulting consequences are of no consequence.

If, as a homeowner, someone breaks into your house while your family is home, and kills someone, then gets caught, would you not be glad the man who murdered a member of your family is in jail? What about as a neighbor or just someone reading about it in the paper. Should they too not be glad a dangerous person can no longer bring harm and misery to others?

I think that is his point, so not sure where the disagreement. — schopenhauer1

The disagreement is that "nothing in this world" implies the entirety of existence as opposed to the environment in which we dwell in. I suppose, notwithstanding, the freedom, time, and ability to complain and be heard about "there being nothing" is a world of difference from an earlier world where such liberties were not to be found.

It's more to me about motivations. The feeling that there is "nothing to do, nowhere to go, nothing to be, and no one to know". — schopenhauer1

He conveys the depressive mindset well, I see. Does he not make any attempt to bring good to what he himself deems as "bad" ie. depressive? There is always something to do, someone to be, and someone to know, if one's wants and expectations are realistic, or even adamant enough.

So much for beginner's luck. :lol:

I've played chess before. Not often but I know what piece does what, save for things like "en passant" and castling lol.

Well if you don't get another participant I'd go again.

See, if they threw in some other bit like "offre de rachat" where you can sacrifice a pawn for the king.. we'd still be playing. Just think about that.

I missed that in the lateness of the hour.

I did learn something there, thanks.

Yeah yeah, I know what directions are.

On your part.. the queen can move diagonally? So, could've ate my king from the previous position. Or no? Either way.



Your move

That's a check, is it not?

An allegedly smart person who holds that reputation, has to wage daily battles with wannabes. — god must be atheist

Did a sufficiently advanced smart person not "want to be" smarter some point in their life if not throughout its entirety? Perhaps not. But, it's worth explaining otherwise..

Interesting.

Am I missing something here?

but the emphasis on intellectual prowess in Western society seems over-the-top and to the exclusion of other attributes that would seemingly provide for a better (more balanced) life — synthesis

Modern? Like today? Lol. Hard to argue with that OP.

Was asked this recently, and am now curious about how my definition varies when compared to others. — Gordon Jones

And now, so are we. Considering you've neglected to share yours.

That's.. interesting. If not an interesting philosophical commentary on the times in which we live. Always associated a crown with the king and also the tallest piece, etc, etc... Let's re-do from your move before my most recent one. After all, you did forget to say "check" ... :p

I thought he could attack people in an immediate diagonal quad space. As in, you could attack the queen and that's your move then its mine. Hmm.. I'm going to Google that but in the mean time give me a few moments.

Was messing with him some. Like I said needs some stricter coding to prevent such occurrences.
