The next Digital Foundry thread on Era should be fun. John Linneman of the Digital Foundry dudes was on Skill Up's podcast.
Digital Dinosaur previously Dragon Kai or something like that wrote:If nothing else, the person who leaked this deserves a lot of thanks. It does appear to be blowing up. If nothing else really highlighting Disney buffoonery to a whole lot of people.
If they refuse to air it on streaming at this point, it looks even worse considering everyone online can see it exists now. And see what was in the episode, making it clear exactly why Disney is afraid.
On the side this does help emphasize just how bad a company Disney has become in the last 20 years. They are the definition of a self-contradicting, waffling mess; utterly terrified of the line not going up. But seemingly incapable of doing anything smart in response. They fumble around like idiots.
Only this 20 years?
This dude always talks like he knows what he is saying but pull stuff like this shit. Since fucking Gaf days…

I believe I had read that for whatever reason, there actually is a male/female gap in chess, to where letting a man compete with women would wreck them just as in other sports
who knows, the way brains are wired, analytical-mindedness, being able to look 50 moves ahead more efficiently, whatever
Women have a disadvantage at chess because they always thinkin’ about makeup, shopping, hairspray, and suchlike

it's partly a numbers game, which could make it a cultural thing
far fewer women are driven to play chess whether that's a matter of repressive culture, less of a competitive drive (see esports as well), or some combination of factors
as of 2022, the top ranked female player in the world Hou Yifan had an ELO score of 2658, making her 83rd overall, and the second best female player isn't even in the top 100
the highest ranked female player ever Judit Polgár had an ELO score of 2735, making her the 55th best player ever
the governing body for international chess competition FIDE created female only titles to try to increase female participation, and the requirements to become a female grandmaster are 200 points lower than for men
https://chess.stackexchange.com/questions/34935/why-do-women-have-a-lower-elo-requirement-to-obtaining-women-fide-titles
a male FIDE master with an ELO in the 2300s, maybe not even in the top 10,000 globally, could simply identify as a woman and instantly be a female grandmaster
in an interview, FIDE teacher and chess psychologist Maria Rodrigo was asked why there are fewer elite female chess players:
https://www.elcorreo.com/xlsemanal/personajes/maria-rodrigo-ajedrez-mujeres-federacion-espanola.html
Quote:XL. Why are there still no women in the elite?
M.R. For various reasons, but basically for two. For a statistical question (we are less players) and for a cultural factor. Evolutionarily, women are more used to collaborating and men to compete. It is an imprint that comes to us from the hunter-gatherer tribes. In addition, the male brain processes visual information faster, which favors the recognition of patterns on the board, while women have more developed memory. But in ten years we will see girls fighting for the world title.
Chess is separated by sex because there aren't enough girls playing so it gives them a chance to win within their own rankings sorta like the wnba. I dont doubt Lisa Leslie or Caitlin Clark would do aight (bench players, 3 point specialist)playing against men, but they specifically shine playing against women. Same thing with chess chick x or y.
How trans folks fits in is entirely based on your views of trams folks. In my view, a man who has specifically grown up since they were 3 playing chess and then switching to being a woman would have an obvious advantage (through more years of experience and competetion). Girls dont necessarily get the rigourous training regiment as dudes do. So maybe the patriarchy is to blame?
I made all that shit up, so I don't know and ultimately don't care.

Those villain get taken out of the rotation fast. so I’m not sure what that idiot is talking about.

Shooting specialists who can't play defense, are undersized and can't get shots off over bigger longer men would not be playable. It's a nice fantasy, but not realistic. WNBA teams get waxed by highschool men teams for a reason.
