One of the world’s earliest surviving chess sets ♟️

This nearly complete set dates to the 12th century and is believed to come from Nishapur, Iran. Made of molded and glazed stonepaste, the pieces take beautifully abstract forms. This set is now preserved at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

One of the world’s earliest surviving chess sets ♟️

This nearly complete set dates to the 12th century and is believed to come from Nishapur, Iran. Made of molded and glazed stonepaste, the pieces take beautifully abstract forms: the shah (king) appears as a throne, the vizier as a smaller throne, the elephant with tusk-like projections, the horse marked by a triangular head, the chariot shaped as a rectangular block with a wedge on top, and the pawns as faceted hemispheres with small knobs.

This set is now preserved at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

An idea. Just a client-side mock-up at this point.

There's quite a bit in the ActivityStreams vocabulary to support this already, but I'd probably want to use some extensions to make it make sense.

#TIL

There's a #chess piece that moves along diagonals.

* In #Spanish is called "alfil", which comes from "elephant" in #Arabic
* In #English it's "bishop", #Portuguese "bispo", #Tagalo "obispo", probably from a time when the Catholic church had more weight than elephants in armies?
* In #French it's "fou", "crazy person".
* In #German it's "Läufer", "runner".

Did you know that New York City mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani was the music supervisor for Queen of Katwe?

He also appears in the film as "Bookie Student" and was third assistant director. And he performs on the soundtrack as a rapper!

I have nothing but the deepest contempt for wealthy individuals who allow themselves to be used by despotic regimes to sports wash their reputations. Magnus Carlsen is just the latest example. Don't these people have enough?

On this website you can play #chess online against (probably) real people. This is what I recommend if you do not want to register. If you would like to register (to have something like ELO ratings and match with opponents of similar skill levels), I recommend the FICS instead:

https://www. freechess.org/

The latter might require installing some #software that might be harder on #Ubuntu than earlier (eboard or pychess).
