Monkey Raptor V.2

In this 3 minutes blitz game, I played as the defence side. This isn't a high Elo game, obviously. 1600–1700ish max, but in sheer entertainment? 3000+ 🤣 We have inaccuracies, mistakes, and blunders crayon-coloured all over the board. You can use your left and right arrows on your keyboard or use the mouse scroll to see the moves back and forth on the chessboard. But first, click the board. Proper Street Hawk Chess. Englund Gambit The motto is What if I give you free material from the very beginning? Englund is taken from Fritz Carl Anton Englund (1871–1933), a Swedish chess player and writer. Do you know "Dancing Queen" by ABBA? Indeed. He wasn't a world champion, but more of an enthusiast with a love for offbeat openings and aggressive lines. "Dancing Queen" is a song, not a male. But I'm amused by my own typing. Imagine if it were taken from "England". Well, it would be like someone took London System and s...

Did you realise YouTube was... having issues? They perhaps then: git revert redesign-nightmare You see, James the QA was off jiving to Alizée's songs. Lead : JAMES! Did you test the new layout across all CDN clusters!? James: : (Taking off headphones.) Huh? What layout? Wait… we're deploying today? Blimey… C'est pas ma faute… Lead : You... 🤦 Fine... Revert back, lads! YouTube is back. Though the matter is resolved, it has been resolved, and thus we resolve that it is resolved. ⬅️ That is called a formal shrug, Shakespearean-level dithering. We do...

This is hilarious. I'm on Windows 11, I use Microsoft Clipchamp often to edit videos. There's this quirk since last week or so. This is how big the application upon starting a new session: It gets smaller each time. 🤣 It's fine, since the maximise button can still be clicked until it can't. 😂 This is utterly comical. Somewhere in the development room: Bob : Done, mate. All unit tests passed. Merged to staging. Gary: : (Sipping coconut tree.) Well? Ship it, then. Bob : Where's James? Don't we need his QA brilliance? Gary: : (Sipping coconut...

I was on YouTube. This film was featured on my homepage. The title caught me off guard. The Transposition First of all, it's: Shaolin vs Ninja But then... On Startpage... Oi, let's swap things around, nobody would notice. Propaply because no proper "American Shaolin", only "American Ninja" — thus the reflex-swap. 🤷‍♂️ American Shaolin. 🤔 It sounds like "Zen with shotguns" or "igloo skyscraper". Or perhaps IMDb did: arrayOfWordsInTitle.sort() You see, "N" is before "S" in alphabet . Let's try that: title = "Shaolin vs. Ninja"; title.split(" ").sort().join(" "); // Ninja Shaolin vs. // ⬆️ See? Almost. The machine hath spoken. 👑 The Title Right. Let's continue. The title is bloody abstract. Shaolin? Which part? The entire institution? The whole temple complex? Every monk ...
