The thumbnail alone deserves a like

[@antonioborjas6729]

Aaaah nothing like settling into a few hours of Eric playing rapid. 👍🏻

You look so silly in the thumbnail, I love it!

rapid format is the best

Dude that thumbnail is dope.

[@auztin98]

Defendable - something capable of being protected. Used when the capabilities are concrete and obvious Defensible - something capable of being protected. Used when the capabilities are not so concrete or obvious Both are adjectives and used interchangeably in modern language. Etymology still reveals a slight connotative distinction between the two.

[@Somethingnobodyhasthoughtof]

that's really interesting actually, like the difference between 'i can defend' and 'i could put up a defense'

[@mavaddat]

They're completely synonymous. You offered two _explications_ (pace Carnap), but your comment contains no **_etymological_** traces whatsoever. Moreover, the offered explications rest on nothing. There is no reason, e.g., why the definitions could not be swapped. The prefixes ( _defend_ vs _defense_ ) give no indication of the distinction you're suggesting. Also, despite its popularity, the attempt to invoke etymology to resolve semantic questions is dubious, since the sense of a word is determined by its actual lexicographical usage not its origin.

One dimensional would be just a list: a1, a2 (white pawn), ... h7, h8 (black rook)

if only there was one more pawn you could have had 100% of a cube

Such. Video game. Ah abe gregsky aullo did their happiest I

[@Maywek]

I was expecting you to be in a scuba suit the entire video. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

[@mikebaker2436]

Why did you expect scuba?

[@Maywek]

@@mikebaker2436 it looked like a scuba suit lol. I wrote this comment at 2 am. At first glance on the thumbnail I thought he was in a scuba suit.

[@mikebaker2436]

@@Maywek Yeah, that dial by his neck is an altimeter not a pressure regulator. 😅🤗

[@solomonherskowitz]

Yeah gimmie that rapid chess bro

[@SebastianBohn]

What an adventurous thumbnail… 😅

[@EpiDot52]

That last game's attack was absurd. He must've made some massive opening mistakes to have been put in that position. Like that king side attack is way imbalanced. That must have been convertible somehow.

[@WhiterockFTP]

a single square would be 0-dimensional in that context. 1-dimension would be a line, so you could just put the 64 squares in a straight line hahaha
