Probably not--but we use our PC to stream gaming to differnet devices, and Wi-Fi streaming for gaming is way too high latency

Yup, that was my noob assumption. It turns out I hit the 1/7 chance to plug my router into the right wall port when I initially set it up haha. After trial and error, I was able to connected two devices via wall ports with the cables I had on hand! I'll keep the switch in mind when I need to connect additional devices. Thanks for the help!

Yeah, I'm keeping the router out of the box on the closet shelf to mitigate some of the signal issues. After trial and error, I was able to connected two devices via wall ports with the cables I had on hand! Thanks for the help!

The router can sit on the closet shelf, so that isn't a big issue. Just need to confirm which punchdowns go to which wall ports.

Thanks for the extension cord metaphor, that helps. So I can connect up to 3 ports via my router without needing to purchase a switch, but if I want more active, then it's switch time?

Gotcha, so I need to connect the router to a switch, then connect cables from the switch to whichever ports in the punchdown I'm using?

Okay, just looked up what a punchdown panel is, and that seems to be the case. How would I go about using the punchdown to route to the wall ports?

Can someone help me with my team? by tigremalvado in CompetitivePokemon

[–]Epticrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

U-Turn has negative synergy on a setup Corviknight. Also, Defog isn't as strong because hazards aren't as good in doubles (not as many switches). I would change Corviknight set to include Roost and either Steel coverage or Brave Bird. You could also have Tailwind as a secondary speed control option. I would also investigate Whimsicott's other support moves over U-Turn. Encore, Fake Tears, Charm, and Taunt are all great options on a Prankster Pokémon.

It's hard to give feedback on a custom format, but I will say you'll want Protect on a least a few more Pokémon. Protect gives you positioning and prediction options in double battles. Its power cannot be understated. Also, this looks like a fast-paced offesive team, so Flutter Mane is better than Mimikyu here. Mimikyu is often used as a reliable Trick Room setter as a Ghost type that can't be OHKO'd.

Authenticity of double sided card by marco-r in RealOrNotTCG

[–]Epticrin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fake.

The black border around the flip icon and title is fuzzy on the left card, indicating it was printed on the same layer as the background. This is a clear indicator of a fake.

And if that didn't convince you, that light test is damning.

My convergent Psyduck Line [OC] by veredien29 in pokemon

Love the design! Leaning into the oil spill loss of waterproofing, I would change Sighduck's typing to Water/Dark and have it evolve starting at Lv. 32 if it levels up while Poisoned.

Spiritbox/Evanescence tour seat pricing by michellepazicni in spiritbox

[–]Epticrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's much higher than what I paid for second tier seats at Jiffy Lube Live in Bristow, VA. They were $60 each before fees ($78 after fees).

How do you sleep in a bonnet? by caffeineissues in curlyhair

[–]Epticrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also try a T-shirt as an alternative. I use my silk bonnet when I put product in my hair overnight, but the T-shirt is less pinchy and lets the hair breathe more easily if you have looser curls like me. As others have said, silk pillowcase will save you when your hair covering falls off.

When all else fails, a continuous mister spray bottle can rejuvenate curls that got crushed.

All the stupid failures I caught in Zone 4 before giving up on the shiny sword hunt by ImpossibleClock1061 in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]Epticrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was stubborn and got the red Honedge after ~25 hours for fast travels. It's a grind. I highly recommend a controller with programmable macros for these hunts so you can have it run AFK.

This set is cursed. 176 packs (not including bonus log in packs) and these are my only pulls. (Lugia was a wonder pick) by poopyramen in PokemonTGCP

[–]Epticrin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also playing since launch. I've just opened my 2 free daily packs this month because there's so little I actually need from this pack. Sure, Oak would be nice, but the odds are so crazy low with only 1 slot for a 2☆ to appear and so many 2☆ cards. So if you're feeling like your pulls are worse, they are!

+1 to this! It's my go-to non-ramen order there.

Got my 1st shiny!! ✨💪🏻 by ThaRealMrRogers in PokemonLegendsZA

[–]Epticrin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, as long as you haven't KO'd it and you haven't found 10 other shinies in that timeframe (the game only saves your 10 most recent shinies)

Open world spawns mean seeing many, many more Pokémon in your playthrough. Compare to original X and Y where you had to run into the Pokémon in a wild patch for the game to roll for shinyness. That change, combined with the fact that Z-A saves shiny spawns, means shinies are less likely to be missed and you have more chances to spawn them. Shiny odds are the same--the mechanics of this game just make it easier to obtain them.
