You have to solve a few words before you start moving any pieces to try to maximize the number of double-green swaps. Any time you figure out a double-green, go ahead and do it - it will never keep you from getting the full 5 stars.
A trick is: if there is only one of a letter on the board, you can always put it in place without worrying about a double-green swap. Often times it opens up a chance for a double-green later.
Hope that helps.
The words and definitions are below once the game is over, but I don’t think they show up in the puzzle. Good luck today.
Go all in!
Yes, I usually solve at least four words before I start moving pieces and try to get as many double swaps as possible.

Good job! Have fun.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Construction workers or people in business and all who is right in this scene the teacher or Rodney Dangerfield?English
7·2 months agoI am in construction (not manufacturing) and own my own business. Truth is, they are both right.
Rodney is right because there are a huge number of variables that the prof’s equation is ignoring. Also, it is generally a good idea to know what you are manufacturing and work to produce that product as efficiently as possible. The professor is sort of putting the cart before the horse by building a factory with no product.
That said, we are in a learning environment and seemingly in a lower-level class. You have to strip away real-world variables to teach the lessons at hand. The professor is right not to include corrupt politicians and mafia folk, it’s too much when you are trying to start with the basics. But he should’ve had the class decide on a product - he said it himself, it could be anything - and then build up from there.
Mafia payoffs are a 300 level course.

It would actually be an appropriate title for the episode.
I use Recipe Keeper for Android. It converts pics, text and URLs to recipes, has a shopping list function, and is a 1-time purchase after the 1st 20 recipes you store. It’s also very simple - does everything I need and nothing I don’t.

Political Memes@lemmy.world•SCOTUS to Trump todayEnglish
27·4 months agoFrom SCOTUSblog,
“Based on two words separated by 16 others in … IEEPA—‘regulate’ and ‘importation’—the President asserts the independent power to impose tariffs on imports from any country, of any product, at any rate, for any amount of time,” Chief Justice John Roberts wrote. “Those words,” he continued, “cannot bear such weight.” “IEEPA,” Roberts added, “contains no reference to tariffs or duties.” Moreover, “until now no President has read IEEPA to confer such power.”
“Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote the main dissent, which was joined by Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito.”

Technology@lemmy.zip•Instagram boss: 16 hours of daily use is not addictionEnglish
32·4 months agoHis argument is: 16 hours daily use is not addiction IF THAT IS THE ONLY FACTOR. He repeats it again and again. But that argument is stupid, because it ignores the other well-known and proven variables of addiction. Does this behavior have serious effects on your mental and physical health? Does it interrupt your work and play? Do you have an obsessive need to do it? The list goes on.

Trans Memes@lemmy.blahaj.zone•We carry on for absent friendsEnglish
2·6 months agoTo extrapolate on the lesson inherent in the meme, there are wounds you can survive and those you can’t. Once you identify the ones you can’t survive, you add armor to protect yourself (and others) from future formerly-deadly wounds.
There are so many systemic things we can correct (and we will!), but what, as in the case of this plane, are the personal pieces of armor we can forge? What pieces of armor can we help others forge for themselves?
An obvious one is a support network of friends and hopefully family. I’m a cis dude who was touched by the image and would like to be a better ally.





Tons of “false positives” in this one. The streak starts again!
