To wit, you can send a message by adding a "Trump Tariff Tax" instead of changing your base price, just to clearly articulate to the simpletons that thought this would lower costs

He's the oldest president in our history and eats McDonald's frequently...

That's pretty solid

Same time Elon did the old Sieg Heil in front of a live, televised audience at the inauguration. Golly, I wonder if these events are related...what the actual fuck

It's called Instagram or YouTube Shorts. Same thing...TikTok offered nothing new. And I'm here, but all I see on Lemmy are the same posts 3-4 times, predictable pearl clutching reactions to everything, and very limited news coverage with a proclivity for posting random, fringe sources

We just implemented a 4 point scale for What we have accomplished and a 4 point scale for How we accomplished our work. But here is the fun part, no one was allowed to get a 4 because that should be reserved for industry changing innovations or something.

That's Italy...not Spain...

Sometimes a simple mistake leads to an act of disobedience that shines a light on the foolishness of the rule in question. This is one of those times. A dress code like this is also a way of gatekeeping players that may not have the means to meet the dress code.

Also, he offered to correct the faux pas the next day of the tournament, and they refused. The article mentioned they also forced someone to leave to change their shoes - which was also ridiculous. Magnus just has enough clout to stand up to this. I wouldn't be surprised if they amended the rule.

It's a bigger blunder for FIDE...they get headlines now that they kicked possibly the current most famous player in chess over a dress code violation that was not in the least distracting to other players.

He didn't show up in a T-shirt and jeans, he wore a blazer and a collared shirt.

They just look follish for digging their heels in

For context, 3.7% of their GDP is like $1.5B USD. That's a bit of a joke

Shut up and take my up vote lol
