14.Jun.2010 Amnesiac Binary CPU Chickens Out.
Chess. Chekers. The game of the Kings. Sublimable violence. Psychology on the board, unconscious sexual behavior represented on the movement of the pieces and in the tactics used. Intellectual battle grounds. Domination by planing the board. A very addictive game is what it is. I learned with a family member how to play this game: some moves, some attacks, defense techniques and the art of sacrifice, the values of the different pieces. Played every weekend, sometimes for hours, as a child. Then after a whole bunch of years, I double clicked on the Mac Chess.app. Big Mistake. I got hooked instantly.
The same family member happily lended me 6 books which talk about Chess, in all it´s forms. Really, really awesome books. Pure Heaven. The first one I grabbed I did so to have an overview of the game, it´s name: “Psychology of the Chess Player”, written by Reuben Fine.
It has all kind of theories that vary from repressed homosexuality that reflects on chess board moves and tactics, to unresolved father disputes, a revenge on the father figure, represented in this case by the King. A Rivalry fight, ending in the ultimate check mate, to “level” or to fix real psychological issues. And then to the next game. This never ends, that´s why so many of the greats have retired with strange, weird and mysterious excuses. The Queen represents the mother, etc. And then steps into the realm of the libido and sexuality which is expressed in the game. Phallic and impotent whole chess game moves.Pieces that symbolize the genitals, phallics and other wise. Impotence and sexual unresolved issues which can explode in repeated failed attacks or moves that have no value in the schematic options provided by the chessboard. Sexual issues and healthy libido. It blew my frikin head off. Then there´s the theory of sublimated violence by the game of Chess, hostile behaviors, total domination, Intellectual Battles. etc. I never knew all those things were at stake while I was moving my pieces innocently and mentally planning my moves on the board. Of course, some theories don´t apply to all, etc etc.
So I was getting a bloodshed on the board. Started reading this other book called: Semi-opening apertures, by Ludek Pachman (coolest last name ever). This books guides you thru techniques and moves, and thru the games of the greats. Something majestic. Yeah, now I was ready to infest all my mental sexually charged aggression on the chess board and see the board as a mathematical and psychological 6-D ground. To cover up and let my imagination go. Let the intellect guide.
I Double clicked on the chess application, grabbed my genitals soccer player style, and made a move, backed up by my mental strategy. One move, just right in the pocket, the binary code computer had fallen on the trap which would have unchained a massacre on the chess board. My first win, or semi win in days of playing against this binary machine. I was the master, the computer, the one being controlled. And then as if Mac programs do this, it bitched out. It chiken out, completely. It suffered a sudden and lasting amnesia. As we say here in Venezuela, se pico la maquina y se hizo la loca. I don´t know the perfect traduction for it, or I don`t remember it, but is as if the machine chickened out and made a coward move. And made a shady move: Here it is on video. Binary Amnesia. I controlled Z the hell out of it, and it kept doing the same move. It didn´t remember the move. It doesn´t remember a thing. I sensed a whole bunch of BS, so it must be a whole bunch BS. Worst than Tron. So I just hitter control Q and quitted this rubbish game. The Mac Chess application hasn’t had any bug since the last time it happened. I had never witnessed a chickened out so falsely and dishonorable. I will apply some other measures. Well, there goes the neighborhood.
It´s not a trick and has nothing to do with the beautiful editor that I love, nor the editing. Let´s not get confused now.

Se frusta la aplicación y se hace el loco, amnésica, cuando ve que a la segunda jugada ya tenia ganada la partida el contrincante. Se hace la loca el macho este de aplicación con la cuestión, por que le di un par de veces a control Zeta, y nada. Me come el peón con un bug y sigue como si nada. Desleal y cobarde en letras mayores, este .app, al hacer esto. Menos mal que no me costo nada, y que esto de jugar al ajedrez viene de generaciones atrás. Si sacan lo mismo al Italiano entenderia mejor.
