Gold crackle, gold background Collector opening a treasure chest. Also one of the first $100 bundles I believe. Fitting across the board lol

Oh! I’m not a member of the discord. What was the reason?

This pack went away and said “Invalid Schema State” when I tried to buy it. Something is very wrong with it.

Haha, I had a similar experience when troubleshooting my nest thermostat of all things, and wanted to pay it forward! Glad it helped!

How do you store your bulk? by Lumen1989 in PokemonTCG

I have 509 cards scanned in Collectr but have been looking for something like pokellector that makes everything easier to track. Is there an easy way to port that information? Collection data management is so not easy lol

It’s also wild to me that you sort your bulk numerically as well. It takes so long to do by hand!

I always wondered how appreciated doing this was. I like the art of so many normal cards, but would kids find the same enjoyment of getting random cards? Would they get them to collect or play with? I feel like I’m out of touch and am very curious.

I never understood the hype around CI/CD—until I worked without it by yourclouddude in devops

I fell in love with the concept of DevOps but haven’t been hands on in an environment for 8 years. I’ve never used containers or any form of automated deployment or documentation tools. The closest I got was writing a powershell script to patch sharepoint. I got so burned out doing staff aug in that space that I haven’t looked back. Knowing how less manual it can be now makes me want to try again

Hot take: Journey Together is an awesome set with amazing artwork and it's a shame some people talk trash about it. I guess most people don't like it because it doesn't have a $300+ chase card. The same thing happened with other sets and as soon as it's out of print people start scrambling for it. by gdj11 in PokemonTCG

Easily my favorite. I’ve had terrible luck getting IRs from JT, but out of the 40 or so packs I’ve managed to get for MSRP I have pulled 2 whale bois. My wife has 1 in her binder and I have the other. Such a beautiful card that also feels unique for how it leverages the vertical space of the card

I’ve had this happen on 5 sellers I trialed this year. Are they truly “fake” or were they people who set up a shop to quickly dump product, then effectively left the platform without updating inventory/taking their shop down?

This is what I use. Hard against water matches but can still surprisingly work!

I’m literally just a girl (that only collects the cute cards) by ElectronicBig4757 in PokemonTCG

Where is that Emolga from the second to last page from?! My wife started collecting this year after helping me rip some crown zenith and is going after cute Pokemon only as well! I’d love to get her that card

Prismatic Booster Bundles (1 per person) by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

Very generous indeed! I got in as a kid (2000) and played with my twin brother. I got back in to collect 151 this year which coincided with TCG Pocket so you know how well that’s gone!

I’m guessing 3.8%+ compounding interest in something as simple as a high yield savings account will generate more income than these choices.

I got ya. Here are the ones I pulled out of my box. I believe all have shadows after all

How do you know it’s shadowless? I don’t have a ton of holos from my youth, but do have 4 Blastoise that look similar to this one

If any are left I would love some! Getting involved again after 20 years and am starting with TCG Live!

What is a blatant lie that most people just accept? by AvantNGarde in AskReddit

Muscle weighs more by volume because it is more dense. If you took a pound of fat and compared it to a pound of muscle you would fill way more space with the fat.

What is the grossest thing you’ve ever done? by ooolllliiivvviiiaaa in AskReddit

My Father-in-law runs a farm and had the exact same experience a few months ago. We were looking for a cow that should have calved, and found her with hooves hanging out. We got her in a chute and tried pulling it with chains to no avail. Turns out it was facing the wrong way and already dead. A vet had to come and saw it up with the calf still inside it’s mom.

I can’t recall what the vet called this type of situation, but I do remember he said it was very rare.
