Its not that much, but the article ignores the fact that chess.com knew all of this and invited him to their tournaments. Then once the Singfield cup event happened and Magnus got mad they banned him.

They have been selectively releasing information about him and his one time coach for a few weeks now. While in the past they have never, not once, released any of their cheating information. Why now?

If they dont release the report they are talking about then this article is nothing.

They are doing it for your own good. Cant you see

I wouldn't quote you either. Its a self reported "disease" so any % are guess work at best given you didn't just make them up

I find people who "find discussing politics and climate change rewarding in itself" usually just like pontificating and having others agree

Ya or when your body just starts vibrating after 5 mins and your eyelashes freeze when you blink and your lips stick when you close your mouth. -40C is very different on the body then 0C

Thank you. I never knew the source of the ridiculous theory that the internet sprang from spying attempts on the Vietnamese. I am always looking for keywords to filter conspiracy weirdos. Yasha Levine added

The problem with this is its a black box of complexity that the user has no control over that effects the usefulness of a product they "own". When it breaks they have no recourse but to bring it to a "Company" repair shop and pay to have it fixed. They cant upgrade it they cant modify it they cant turn it off. Its modern day "Company store" bullshit

There is a safer alternative in the short term. The two are comparable in the long term for safety. Also "Coal itself kills at least 50000 Europeans every year." is far from a truth. Coal may have increased the chance of death by some amount for at least 50000 Europeans every year is more correct.

People should hate scalpers. They are leaches who use excess time and information to squat on something others want. They make nothing, add nothing, provide nothing.

Ya this whole thread is weird. Either 1) peoples opinions about the net have changed drastically in a very short amount of time 2) this thread is an anomaly 3) This thread is being turfed

All of these make me uneasy

My guess is you haven't been in America long or you are interacting in a business setting.

"One thing I noticed as an English person during my time in the US is that IN MY OPINION you have less words."

Its always funny to me explaining perceived rudeness as just being from a Nation State. More they beat their chest and swell their pride because of it.

Always has been

What does US execs mean here? I see nothing in the article about the US

"Gay people should have rights". What "rights" currently are being denied to gays? Honest question
