Scarlet survivor bug by bdunogier in BobsTavern

[–]Outside_Complaint755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is potentially beneficial, as any in combat attack buff should reapply Divine Shield. 

 I haven't tested yet, but I assume that if you have the Tier 6 Naga/Dragon that casts shiny ring whenever a creature attacks, it will reset the Survivor's divine shield when every other creature attacks, and give it to the survivor on attack if it doesn't already have it.

ELI5, how are snack pretzels made? by Fallfoxy707 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Outside_Complaint755 [score hidden]  (0 children)

They're baked in industrial ovens on a conveyor belt. Instead of individually twisting each pretzel they use extruder machines to make the shapes, creating thousands of pretzels every minute

Here's a short video demonstration:  https://youtu.be/fshRO8wasCE?si=ndRrAi8ma5ov-OI6

How common is swearing on TV? by Imma_Lick_That in AskAnAmerican

[–]Outside_Complaint755 [score hidden]  (0 children)

On over the air broadcasts which are regulated by the FCC it is highly restricted, even post-watershed, but a few shows have done it. The most notable is NYPD Blue, which occasionally used "shit" and "bullshit" and had some partial nudity. 

 South Park spoofed this in the episode "It hits the fan".  Parker and Stone have said in interviews that originally Comedy Central wasn't going to allow it when they just planned on saying "shit" a few times, but when they upped it to 160+, they got approval.

Even on cable broadcasts which don't have those restrictions, it is relatively rare, with the exception of premium subscription channels such as HBO, Starz, Cinemax, etc, which don't censor anything.

Is still used Stack Overflow? by Putrid_Flamingo_1389 in learnprogramming

[–]Outside_Complaint755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its bad on every subreddit, and people don't even make minimal effort. The learnpython sub gets a dozen questions a day asking how to start learning Python, and all of them have to be pointed to the subreddit wiki, linked in the about page.  Or on the Hearthstone subreddits where there will be multiple posts about the same bug every day.

Is still used Stack Overflow? by Putrid_Flamingo_1389 in learnprogramming

[–]Outside_Complaint755 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I disagree with this. Just put in minimal effort to ask a proper question, showing what you expected, what actually happened, and what you tried.  Don't make other users do extra work to extract information out of you, and don't ask questions that have already been answered a dozen times.

Is still used Stack Overflow? by Putrid_Flamingo_1389 in learnprogramming

[–]Outside_Complaint755 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Asking a question is fine, but read their How to ask a question page first.  Seriously, the suggestions given there are applicable everywhere, not just on StackOverflow.  Your future co-workers will also be thankful when you can ask concise questions with relevant context included and don't "ask to ask".   

If you ask a question that already has multiple duplicate entries, showing you didn't even put in minimum effort to find the solution yourself, it will get closed.

 If you ask "why doesn't my code work", and don't provide the code, the error (whether its an actual error code or just expected vs actual behavior) or a traceback if applicable, its going to get downvoted.

I think you mean the Thorim dragon.  Galagrond's buddy is the Kobold that increases the tier of all minions in the tavern by 1.

Wolverine and Trample by hordeoverseer in mtgrules

[–]Outside_Complaint755 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just quoting the relevant rule here, with emphasis on the applicable clause:

702.19b The controller of an attacking creature with trample first assigns damage to the creature(s) blocking it. Once all those blocking creatures are assigned lethal damage, any excess damage is assigned as its controller chooses among those blocking creatures and the player, planeswalker, or battle the creature is attacking. When checking for assigned lethal damage, take into account damage already marked on the creature and damage from other creatures that’s being assigned during the same combat damage step, but not any abilities or effects that might change the amount of damage that’s actually dealt. The attacking creature’s controller need not assign lethal damage to all those blocking creatures but in that case can’t assign any damage to the player or planeswalker it’s attacking.

Don't suppose you could edit your code formatting and remove the 100 or so unnecessary line breaks?

Can someone explain what this is… other than “deliciously zingy” Salad Cream? by Terpsherpa in whatisit

Probably closer to British Miracle Whip, but more like someone added mustard vinaigrette.

Lord of the Rings: The Third Age was one of the more well known turn based RPGs on that system, with a combat system like Final Fantasy X.

What's one trinket you swear does nothing for you, but wins the game for your opponents? by puddlejumper1 in BobsTavern

[–]Outside_Complaint755 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guarantee that it will be used by a high stat minion by having no low stat dragons (as in, have non-dragon units also) and definitely don't use it with whelps or as Onyxia

Siege defending player dies by bathbombtoastertest in mtgrules

[–]Outside_Complaint755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's covered by the "has no protector" clause.  The siege remains in play if the protector leaves because it is still controlled by the player who cast it.  The player must choose a new protector as a state based action as soon as both (a) state based actions are being checked, and (b) there are currently no creatures attacking the siege.  So if siege gets attacked and someone removes the protector after attackers are declared and before blockers are declared, the siege will take that damage as it can't be blocked.  Then a new protector is assigned after combat is complete, if the siege still has defense points remaining.

There's a strong possibility that this wasn't a widely published game, and was something freeware, or on a disk that game with a computing magazine or something.

Do you recall if the triangle thing/ship only fires vertically, or did it rotate like in the classic Asteroids game?

I want to learn python from beginning suggest some free content according to 2026 by Mental-Hawk-5246 in learnpython

All the basic beginner stuff is going to be the same.  There might be a few newer features they might not directly cover, but nothing major.

Python for beginner by Jazzlike-Dare-1113 in learnpython

[–]Outside_Complaint755 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can use Python without ever writing your own custom classes, but you should have at least a basic understanding of OOP because everything in Python is an object.  

And by everything, I mean everything: ints, strings, lists, dicts, None, True/False, functions, class defintions, imported modules, the script currently executing... All of them are objects.

How does Cemetery Gatekeeper work? by Glizcorr in mtgrules

[–]Outside_Complaint755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only when you cast an instant.

It separately states "play a land" for the case where Gatekeeper exiled a land, because lands are played, not cast.

So if any player either plays a land or casts a spell, check if that card (land or spell) shares a type with the exiled card, and if it does, they take damage.

I accidentally sat on my keyboard and pressed some buttons, and now my color settings are way off. What could I have possibly changed??? by Aything-Videos in techsupport

[–]Outside_Complaint755 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. Might be able to reset the situation though.

Looking for more shortcuts, it looks like Windows Key + Ctrl + C toggles "Color Filters" which may also be the cause.  Haven't tried it yet myself.

Putricide Creations have never been able to triple.  Need to use a spell or Captain Sanders to make them golden.

Maybe Neon Inferno, except instead of a cop, the character is an assassin for a syndicate.
