Consciousness is definitely a spectrum but the spectrum has to have a beginning, and it begins with integrating information, which those things do not do

Well to play devils advocate, it’s impossible to experience every concious experience that is to be had as we are currently imprisoned in a body, limiting us from experiencing the experiences of others, such as u and I

Thats where my major issue with life after death lies though. The universe is constantly expanding and at one point was fractionally smaller than it stands today. At this point in time note earth did not exist. Because of the decreased size, its safe to conclude that there was significantly less organisms roaming the universe and able to be ā€œinhabitedā€. - these organisms are simply ā€œcreatedā€ as time goes on, as at one point they simply didn’t exist.

Not really, that's like asking, "I'm doing bad in school, you got any advice?" We can't give you any advice other than generic ones that won't help you. We need more info lol. But if you do really want generic advice,

focus on the pieces, look for checks and captures, put pawns in the center and control the center with knights and bishops in the opening

Probably to an extent though right? Like openings are just good chess principles. So even if you didn't spend time studying an opening, but play correct chess opening principles. You are still playing a chess opening. For example like if you just play typical developing moves in the opening, chances are it's a named opening.

Openings are not fun

novel sundial

True really all you have to do is 1 take the center. 2 devolop pieces with harmony. 3 Castle for king safety. Then play a middlegame. Of course named openings like Italian, London, Spanish etc already do that so you can choose one and just pay it.

u may not think so because ur just spamming Italian theory to ur friend but in his eyes ur strangling him

Erdogmus played 2 games in this recently against grandelius and sindarov

Hey tienminh, I heard they named a square after you where nothing bad has ever happened

tranquil basin
#

So I play bxc6 instead just to get a position

But tbh main line is much better

Does anybody ever just lay down at night and think about the fact that the Jobava London is just a reverse Italian.

black with benoni opening is unbreakable

#

Idea is in this endgame the bishop pair has no effect, since bd6 you always play bf4 and you trade it off

#

And bishop pair is negated and double pawns are crippled

Im up 100 blitz elo today feeling so good about all of the evil things I did for this elo

At my level they dont know main line either

Maybe they play the archangel

It always becomes a 3v3 on queenside

#

Because in all endgames doubled pawns u pretend like pawn doesn’t exist

#

Because he cannot create a passed pawn with doubled pawns

pallid ice
dense flint
#

what to expect on your first otb tournament

tranquil basin
#

So u basically have 4v3 on kingside and 3v3 on queenside in endgames in terms of passed pawn

spring tundra
tranquil basin
#

So it’s always better endgame in exchange

Because center is open

With open center, bishops are stronger

Here I have pawn on e4

When you have 2 pieces developed and opponent has 3

Probably a good idea to develop more

This is like saying d4 nf6 c4 e6 nf3 h6 is a possibility

Because it is, white has no advantage after h6

And saying it’s a good move for black

I personally think everybody could probably get to 1700 by sheet will power. But after 1700 I'd you plan to let's say get to 2200 one day. You probably need a coach.
