Have to include ChessNetwork https://www.youtube.com/ChessNetworkTV/videos If people like Gotham/Nakamura/ChessBrahs aren't your style, ChessNetwork is calm and straight forward wi…

Very nice! Have to point out the spelling error, losing* not loosing.

ChessBase is selling this Stockfish clone for €99.90. They have also disabled comments on all of their articles so far about Fat Fritz 2. Not a good look. Related Article on Liches…

I bought this inexpensive one from amazon and my life has never been the same. Once you go bidet there's no going back. https://www.amazon.com/Astor-Non-Electric-Mechanical-Attachm…

I have the exact same problem. When I know what needs to get done, even if it's tedious, it's not so bad to put my nose to the grindstone and work through it. But when I'm not sure…

How has that worked out for you? I hadn't considered profitable side-project from the buyers side until right now, curious to hear your experience.

HTC Vive owner. Mine is mostly on the shelf. I bring it out when new people visit and want to give it a try, but I haven't played otherwise. It's still a good time and the novelty …

I discovered a few years back that chess instructional videos knock me out immediately. I used to play competitively and am genuinely interested, but have never, not even once, sur…

Likely it was one of the racks used by AlphaGo

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=if6GLohPq8k Not that incidents like this don't occur in other cities in the world, but it shows that avoiding dodgy areas at night might not be enou…

It's more likely than you think.
