Plus, why let him "testify" and potentially spread misinformation, doing even more harm


It's because smartphones are a goldmine of data sensors always collecting information on their users. Microsoft failed their attempts at making a phone catch on, but if they can get laptops to collect the same (or similar) data they could become very profitable products.

Did you change the value of max width? Eg https://i.imgur.com/Hla7cyT_d.webp?maxwidth=6400


Maybe for players under say 1800 elo online, but for players above that this won't work -- "bluffing" isn't really a thing until you're at the very very highest levels of chess, and even then the bluffs are only during the openings and if they call your bluff you are only worse by 0.1-0.4 at the most.

I like having to drop the dog, it makes it easier to figure out the rules initially without instruction.

Who are you quoting?


Claim:

> the first map with Poland [...] doesn't explain much.

Reasoning that disputes it:

> The Russian partition [...] was the cause of the area in blue being poor and underdeveloped
