Don't leave us hanging, this could be a true Lemmy moment that will be part of history forever. Like when someone watches a Lemmy video in 10 years this could get mentioned.
According to Wikipedia, en passant describes the capture by a pawn of an enemy pawn on the same rank and an adjacent file that has just made an initial two-square advance.
Assuming lemmy.world stores images on floppy disks a diameter of 200mm that have a capacity of 80 kB, floppy disks store information on the entirety of their size, writing data from one side to the other and looping back to the other side when reaching the end of a row(i realized only after i did the math that floppy disks dont work like that) and i didnt make any mistakes in the math i am too lazy to explain in this reply, the distance between pieces is between 7 and 142 mm
142 mm, compared to the distance between stars, is a very short distance, meaning that, in this situation, the en passant is a legal move

Well, they added a double pawn move to speed up games, but it broke the game a bit and so they added en passant to balance it out. Don't worry, a lot of people who don't play chess regularly, forgets this rule
I need this in my life. I am not yet ready to give up. I grew accustomed to this. Let's make it happen! We're all tech people, we know we can just upvote this post the way it needs to be. Its not nice, noone likes to press the trigger on dying deer we just hit with our car, but someone has to do it. The suffering introduced is greater if the trigger is not pressed. Do the right thing.
If this post gets 1024 upvotes I will shit my pants after eating a KFC 18 piece spicy bucket.
will you show video proof that you did that
Do I have to?
Proof or ban, it's the law
Fuck it, I’m in.
Downvoting to save my eyes
Upvoting to damn your eyes.
Don't leave us hanging, this could be a true Lemmy moment that will be part of history forever. Like when someone watches a Lemmy video in 10 years this could get mentioned.
Why couldn’t I have a fun moment, like breaking both my arms?
Because shitting your pants after a KFC bucket is enough fun for now.
I look forward to it, SatansMaggotyCumFart
Pics or it didn't happen
Like the eating the chicken, shitty pants or pictures of me shitting?
D. All of the above?
I usually charge extra for scat stuff.
So 1025 upvotes? I would probably throw up seeing scat, but I'm to sacrifice myself for a silly internet event.
Absolutely.
Yup
No. No, you do not.
Lmao, you’re gonna shit yourself regardless of upvotes
Upvoted just for you buddy
Do now
I’m working on it, it takes a bit of preparation to get ready to eat 18 pieces of spicy KFC.
Well this aged poorly
Actually it's always been a dream of mine to have a bunch of internet randoms watch me shit.
... 😦
I guess I shouldn't be surprised about that, coming from @[email protected]
Bad day to be a KFC bucket or pants, let's fucking gooooo
The black pawn just minding his business and then outta nowhere
At this point, it's a Lemmy userbase metric.
Little-known fact: A 1024-wide en passant is properly called a kibienpassant.
Is a 4-wide a nibble passant?
I want to nibble your passant
Keep it in the DMs please.
Why do I feel so committed to this?
big number good
number must go up

Ah, the infamous grain gambit.
fun fact : the angle is now around 3" 26' which is just slightly over ¹/₂₀ of a degree !
Does Lemmy even have enough active users for the next one?
No. The next one will be the last.
Looking at the top post in this community, I do not believe in a next one
Edit: I just realized where this comment is at and boy, who did this and how? Is this going viral? In this case, the sky is the limit
2048 is achievable imo
The image has like two pixels per square now
Just over 6 pixels/square
This cannot be a legal move
According to Wikipedia, en passant describes the capture by a pawn of an enemy pawn on the same rank and an adjacent file that has just made an initial two-square advance.
According to dictionary.cambridge.org, adjancent means very near, next to, or touching
According to sync, the image is 0.02 MB.

holy hell you did the math
How can I find out more about this move?
Don't you even know the rules of chess? En passant is not just legal, it is forced.
It violates the principle of locality, and therefore the speed of light as the highest speed allowed in the universe.
Therefore, this truly does violate a law of nature, and is therefore illegal.
It might not be legal for you and me but it's for sure legal for the ruling class
It's only legal if you have enough boards
It is actually forced

Oh Shit, here we go again.
See you on the front page
Yea, Please do it lemmy
This is getting out of hand.
We can still do it folks
I don't know how or why this is a thing, but I'm here for it & you've got a new subscriber!

Witnessing history
not particularly important history, just history. Like mildew in the shower, so are the days of our lives.
Last I saw (5 min ago) the 512 had 30 odd upvotes.
Guess that was comments and not upvotes. I need sleep...
Sleep is for the weak.
However, without sleep, you become sleepy, and sleepiness is weakness.
Therefore, sleep is for the sleepy.
I love it
holy too thin to tap on!
I’m on my phone. I don’t even know what’s going on here.
Tf is going on here

You ever hear an old story about rice on a chessboard?
Well, but that's not it...
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/En_passant
I think rice is reddit's version of this post. Also relevant xkcd
Hey-o purple man
Here is an older one for context. It's a little easier to see the image this way.

En passant par là, j'ai vu le pion noir se faire manger.
I need this in my life. I am not yet ready to give up. I grew accustomed to this. Let's make it happen! We're all tech people, we know we can just upvote this post the way it needs to be. Its not nice, noone likes to press the trigger on dying deer we just hit with our car, but someone has to do it. The suffering introduced is greater if the trigger is not pressed. Do the right thing.
This is epic
Holy hell
