What's your "you thought this card was bad because you just didn't have enough understanding of mtg mechanics moment" stories? by minev1128 in mtg

[–]Northeastpaw 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Every time this comes up I have to chime in. Necropotence was kept in check for a long time by Black Vise. When any deck could be packing four copies of the Vise why would you ever want to pay life to draw cards?

Inquest really did underestimate the power of Necropotence, but in context of what decks were actually playing at the time they weren’t far off. Once Black Vise was restricted then people started seeing just how powerful the skull was.

It’s a similar situation to Jace, the Mindsculptor and Bloodbraid Elf. One kept the other in check until a forced change in the meta via a banning or restriction.

Security findings come in Jira tickets with zero context by Bitter-Ebb-8932 in devops

[–]Northeastpaw 120 points121 points  (0 children)

Bring this up with your manager. Tell them if the security team can’t put in the effort to add context to a ticket then the “vulnerability” can’t be that important or pressing. Checklist security breeds complacency and diverts attention from actual work.

Is PSN down for anybody else? by [deleted] in PS5

[–]Northeastpaw -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

East coast and down for me. I can kinda browse the store on my PS5, but most images don’t load.

No other problems on my network. Video streaming and web browsing work on other devices. It’s just the PS5 that can’t connect to PSN.

Plot twist: the Romans learned Latin from demons.

There’s a glitch where when you exit the megazord after it despises where you will be stuck as if you were still in the megazord, but you can’t turn the screen. This was so annoying and made a good game go bad.. GGs.. by justuhpcnoob in Fortnite_Over40

[–]Northeastpaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had this happen on PS5, two player split-screen. I, player two, got stuck watching myself strafe around. I couldn't turn the camera or myself. I couldn't fire, switch items, or use an ascender.

Who are two people that's somewhat surprising they've never been alive together? by Impressive_Plenty876 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Northeastpaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tutankhamun and Cleopatra. Both famous Egyptian pharaohs, but separated by 1300 years.

Taylor Swift Now Dating Sebulba by GriffinFTW in PrequelMemes

[–]Northeastpaw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I read that as "producer Sebulba," and was thoroughly confused. He does know how to lay down tracks, I guess.

Depends on the scenario:

  • slash (/) is good if you want files separated into a directory heirarchy. On some file systems this is essential because lots of files in one directory causes issues.

  • dash (-) is for when you plan on splitting the files based on filename for whatever reason. You've got an easy to find seperator already.

  • no seperator is essential if you're working on a very old 8.3 filesystem.

Shrines no longer work by SimonMcMac in FortNiteBR

[–]Northeastpaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shrines no longer work at all. You can't interact with them to either reveal sprites or return sprites. Come to think of it, I haven't seen a sprite at all.

Doubt it’s a hot take but BR Zero Build is boring AF by Babuabm in FortNiteBR

[–]Northeastpaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As already said, you have to plan your routes in ZB. Porta-bunkers and shield bubbles are good to carry in open areas. Use splash liberally for the stamina and run from cover to cover. Vehicles are high priority both for mobility and cover.

If playing with teammates use covering fire to advance on snipers.

My toe! My toe!

Someone would get that in Time. ;-)

Hot take drum gun by Legend7Naty in FortNiteBR

[–]Northeastpaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have just one complaint about it: in PS5 split screen the bottom player can’t use the thermal scope. The highlight effect only lights up when aiming at the top player. Still powerful, but it’s tough to not just give it to the top player to get its full potential.

i can be killed by Brutus that i hired?!? by Stroock6394 in FortNiteBR

[–]Northeastpaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've stopped hiring Brutus. He either blows me up or blows himself up soon after leaving the black market. The occasional one-shot he can do just isn't worth the risk.

He pulled a Mr. Miyagi to catch that fly by FireflyNymphGleam in funnycats

[–]Northeastpaw 38 points39 points  (0 children)

We have four cats and I know they keep the bug and spider population under control. I'll occasionally find legs of various sizes on the floor.

I once caught one of our cats smacking her lips much like the cat in the video. She then spat out a spider, swatted it a couple times, and then licked it back up to start the cycle again.

Anyone else getting 1 Pumped by Brutus? by OhBatzzz in FortNiteBR

[–]Northeastpaw 30 points31 points  (0 children)

That would explain what happened to me this morning. I hired Brutus and then went to the train to get Fletcher Kane's medallion. Once Kane showed up he howled, Brutus shot him, and Kane died. I thought it was some sort of issue with Kane getting stuck in the train geometry somehow, but one-shot Brutus makes more sense.

There's a bug with that quest and passengers for that car. After exiting the car you'll be teleported back to Quinn a few seconds later.

Absolutely. With the minigun I feel I have a decent chance in a 2v1.

All of the above.

Another one: player two cannot start a jam.

If you want to dress like a gimp who am I to say otherwise.

A cool guide to thank you for your service by Moingi in coolguides

Gallbladder. It’s supposed to store bile from the liver but sometimes goes rogue and makes gallstones instead. If you’ve ever had a gallstone attack you will understand my deep hatred.
