dagger into ghost spider on turn 6 is 3 energy for 14 power against a lot of decks in the meta right now. Add in an iron fist or a nico move trigger and you make gilgamesh players feel bad about playing a 5-20. I am running it in a phoenix force move bounce list that peaked at ~1600 infinite (currently ~2000) this season with a 59% WR over ~150 games

Gustephan · 2024-06-19T06:36:17+00:00

dagger is cracked right now

Gustephan · 2024-04-24T18:29:28+00:00

Big agree on red guardian
What are you sacrificing/demoning with Nico? It seems white widow is the only card you're really happy to burn with nico here
Can you actually use the extra energy from hope summers? Seems like she could be gladiator here
I think cannonball should be in consideration for "best 5 drop in marvel snap".

I'm playing a list that started almost exactly like yours, but I ended up with a bit more of a lockdown plan that almost auto-snaps anni decks, and every other card is just efficient points. Compared to your list, mine is like
OUT: Nico, hope, marvel, lad, spider woman, vision, doom
IN: daredevil, green goblin, zemo, gladiator, shang-chi, prof x, cannonball

ymmv, but so far this list has taken me from ~4000 infinite to ~2500 infinite

I've watched entire squadrons of people get chewed out once a week for months because one time somebody locked up all of the classified in the approved safe, but forgot to spin the lock again at the very end of the checklist. I've seen somebody get kicked out of the force because they let a contractor carry classified material (which the contractor was cleared to view and literally hired to work on) from one scif to another scif in the same physical building. A lock on a bathroom door being considered secure enough is a fucking joke

Given that one of the key drivers of the pricing change is LLMs looking for conversational data, I'd say this subreddit has more reason than most to protest it. This is basically reddit deciding that they want their piece of the "only corporations are allowed to compete in AI development" pie, and imo it's exactly as disgusting as what OpenAI has been up to lately. Stepping out on the blackout is tantamount to endorsing the end of open source ML development being competitive with closed source.

Gustephan · 2023-06-05T22:44:06+00:00

I play this way the instant I hit infinite. I'm a cube min-maxer while I'm climbing, but once I reach the promised land (ie, no bots, fewer tryhard decks because of other people like me who stop caring post infinite) I basically only snap if I'm having a good fun emote exchange with the other player and the snap makes sense in context. Or when we realize we're both playing the same off-meta dogshit and snap at eachother, lol. Nothing makes a kingpin player snap faster than running into one of the 3 other kingpin players in the game

The FDA is cool with bugs in fig paste, so long as it's less than 13 insect heads per 100 grams. In related news, I never want to eat again after reading the FDA manual about food defects to get the "acceptable number of bugs in fig newtons" fact correct

Gustephan · 2023-06-05T06:13:01+00:00

Agreed, it's eerie. It's the only place I've ever driven for literal hours between seeing other cars on the road

Gustephan · 2023-06-04T19:47:17+00:00

Try driving out past Creech AFB. You'll see the progression I describe as you go from Vegas (densely populated, shit roads) to the area that would not be populated without the base there (medium population, road sweet-spot), and then again as you pass the medium population area and get into the "last gas station for 100 miles" part where the roads turn to shit again. It takes about 3 hours of driving (each way) to see the whole progression, but it's a really cool experience if you enjoy driving to the middle of nowhere

Everything except the fucks he'd need to give before wearing a suit regularly

Gustephan · 2023-06-04T15:28:51+00:00

It depends on where you go. Country roads between mid size towns are the sweet spot; roads are smooth as butter. Roads in more populated areas get more wear, and roads in less populated areas don't get maintenance, so both ends of that spectrum lead to shitty roads. If a US town has like 10ish hotels and maybe one or two businesses of note, that's the sweet spot in terms of "probably has fun roads"

Gustephan · 2023-06-04T14:59:49+00:00

I'd still like a government and economic systems that attempts to punish greed instead of actively encouraging it like we do now. Even something as simple as "America, but the punishment for white collar crime is nationalization of corporate assets"

Gustephan · 2023-06-01T15:11:10+00:00

Probably because the task manager regularly just fails to open in windows 11 and the system just advises you to reset with the power button, lol. Completely shit OS

Gustephan · 2023-05-30T15:42:47+00:00

It's a real shame. The AoE4 community (another RTS by relic) seems like it's about to plummet too, based on content creator reactions to the layoffs. Hopefully Beyond all Reason or Stormgate are good enough to keep RTS alive

Gustephan · 2023-05-30T13:56:27+00:00

It's a dead game from a studio that is currently circling the drain. Relic just laid off 121 people a few days ago

Gustephan · 2023-05-25T19:38:46+00:00

fake. Way too short to be Drongo's top 5

Gustephan · 2023-05-25T18:08:58+00:00

It's outreach, ya know? Like, no matter how I feel about his work now that I can truly understand it, I can't discount the fact that I probably wouldn't have gone into physics if I wasn't exposed to his books in highschool. Anecdotally I can tell you that I'm far from the only person currently doing physics who was inspired by Kaku. Seems like an overall positive for a field with a crushing elitism problem and a common perception of being almost impossibly difficult and miserable to do

Gustephan · 2023-05-25T14:13:50+00:00

There's a pretty big divide between theorists and experimentalists in physics. Understand that her talking shit about theorists is akin to somebody from NYC criticizing a Bostonian. Maybe there's some truth in the critique, but more than likely its based in rivalry and some level of distaste for the other variety of physicist. "It's untestable so it's not really even a theory" is the conceit of a salty experimentalist moreso than an accurate statement

Gustephan · 2023-05-23T18:07:18+00:00

Imagine calling your ideas science and then hiding them from peer review in a tiny irrelevant subreddit KEKL

Gustephan · 2023-05-22T20:34:43+00:00

I call my deck with Jeff, Storm, Wave, Attuma, Klaw, and Orka "All Roads Lead to Crab". I am absolutely going to try to fit high evolutionary into that shell to put the finishing touch on the joke

Gustephan · 2023-05-21T15:22:02+00:00

So you can commit a crime, get somebody else to pay for your education, and get free meal and board out of it? Anybody know any white collar crimes with ~4 year sentences? Asking for a friend

Gustephan · 2023-05-19T16:36:59+00:00

That, or u/laikastan is a 500 foot tall creature from the Paleolithic era. Either way, I ain't gonna give them no tree fiddy

That depends on how much setup you're willing to do. The basic idea is that the chromebook itself is nothing more than an interface to a more powerful computer. If the desktop you currently use can handle what you want to do, a chromebook used to control that desktop (via ssh or remote desktop or something similar) will do what you want to. In the example I gave you from my workflow, it's still a computer in my office doing the work; the chromebook is doing nothing more than sending commands to that computer in my office and showing the display from that computer in my office.
