It sounds OK if you say it in French

For a minute there I thought you were a foie gras goose

Sure, if people suddenly switched languages and then laughed in my face, I would feel bad.

But if it's like the other comments in this post, and it's a couple having a quick word about a private matter, I wouldn't mind. It's not like I should be a part of that conversation

It's rude for spouses to have a private conversation? Would whispering be better? Would it be better if they hid in a cupboard where no one could see them?

Censorship is censorship

Right. Speaking about people in the third person is rude

Every economist has a model.

And every economist who has implemented his model in a given country, will be able to explain - in great detail - why it didn't work

I had a similar issue, and no changes made in Linux would stick. Bootice is a Windows program that allows you to make changes in UEFI boot order and was the only solution that worked for me. Good luck!

You can also fix it by running the following command on your Linux machine:

timedatectl set-local-rtc 1 --adjust-system-clock

The bishop is in danger and unsupported no matter where you move it.

What I meant with giving check with the rook was:

1… Bxf4 2. Kh1/Kg1 Ra1+

That puts white in check with the rook, forcing the king to move, followed by b1Q. If then white takes the new queen at b1, she is protected by the rook at a1. Again, not the most elegant solution but at least black is not giving his promoted pawn away for nothing

[–] putoelquelolea@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Black could always move the rook to a1 before promoting the pawn. It forces a trade, but still leaves black with an advantage.

If white moves his knight to g2, check with the bishop at g3 also gets him another pawn and opens up the king's defenses a little.

White could also take the bishop at f4 with the pawn, but that would just lead to a discovered check.

Given, moving the bishop to b4 does give a better outcome if white moves the king back to row 1. Thanks for walking me through it!
