Don't leave us hanging, this could be a true Lemmy moment that will be part of history forever. Like when someone watches a Lemmy video in 10 years this could get mentioned.

Little-known fact: A 1024-wide en passant is properly called a kibienpassant.

This cannot be a legal move

[–] [email protected] 28 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (3 children)

According to Wikipedia, en passant describes the capture by a pawn of an enemy pawn on the same rank and an adjacent file that has just made an initial two-square advance.

According to dictionary.cambridge.org, adjancent means very near, next to, or touching

According to sync, the image is 0.02 MB.

Assuming lemmy.world stores images on floppy disks a diameter of 200mm that have a capacity of 80 kB, floppy disks store information on the entirety of their size, writing data from one side to the other and looping back to the other side when reaching the end of a row(i realized only after i did the math that floppy disks dont work like that) and i didnt make any mistakes in the math i am too lazy to explain in this reply, the distance between pieces is between 7 and 142 mm

142 mm, compared to the distance between stars, is a very short distance, meaning that, in this situation, the en passant is a legal move

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

holy hell you did the math

[–] Socsa 8 points 6 months ago

How can I find out more about this move?

I don't know how or why this is a thing, but I'm here for it & you've got a new subscriber!

[–] [email protected] 9 points 6 months ago

Well, they added a double pawn move to speed up games, but it broke the game a bit and so they added en passant to balance it out. Don't worry, a lot of people who don't play chess regularly, forgets this rule

Last I saw (5 min ago) the 512 had 30 odd upvotes.

Guess that was comments and not upvotes. I need sleep...

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Sleep is for the weak.

However, without sleep, you become sleepy, and sleepiness is weakness.

Therefore, sleep is for the sleepy.

I need this in my life. I am not yet ready to give up. I grew accustomed to this. Let's make it happen! We're all tech people, we know we can just upvote this post the way it needs to be. Its not nice, noone likes to press the trigger on dying deer we just hit with our car, but someone has to do it. The suffering introduced is greater if the trigger is not pressed. Do the right thing.
