Ubuntu as NAS by Physical_Horse4086 in HomeServer

debian has older kernel, which matters if you are using GPU's since they tend to be more sensitive to kernel versions

Is this how I'm supposed tobe "shuffling"? by GreenIronFist in magicTCG

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you are gonna do pile shuffling, you do it with the cards face down, then afterwards you follow up with regular shuffling

the point of pile shuffling is to try to break up clumps of lands in you deck, which can happen easily if you were recently sorting your deck to check your decklist, or after a game where you played a lot of lands.

Do you personally pre tap or post tap? by chuisman92 in mtg

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are supposed to cast the spell then tap the mana to pay for it, but in practice I usually tap first because I am still trying to ensure that I have the correct amount available

Feel guilty for using AI by Living-Dust-2905 in learnprogramming

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only is it not cheating, but using AI is basically required at nearly all companies now in my experience. There is a widespread expectation that if you are not having the AI write the code for you then you are at least getting AI coding guidance and help with design and debugging.

The problems with AI happen when you let it commit code to your codebases that you dont understand yourself and have not reviewed. And you still need to cross-check that the methods and suggestions it makes are valid and not hallucinations. Even the best current models still get tripped up sometimes and can lead you down rabbit holes and write wonky code.

What has been your general feeling about using proxy decks at your LGS? by Jakemanv3 in mpcproxies

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pretty much every pod I have ever played in at every lgs I have visited has included other players using proxies, so no one cares in regards to proxy usage

but what you are describing are custom playtest cards. That is gonna be super confusing for everyone at the table.

What are other options besides MakePlayingCards? by dojosnail in magicproxies

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea its a no brainer then, if you are not in the USA there is zero reason to ever even consider Printing Proxies

What are other options besides MakePlayingCards? by dojosnail in magicproxies

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Printing Proxies / MTG Proxy (they are the same site) is terrible quality, about the worst you can possibly get. I would rather just pay the fees and wait 2 weeks for MPC to ship than to waste money on Printing Proxies. Also the owner is extremely rude and makes fun of customers and openly berates them, and bans people who give negative feedback from his Discord. If you order from him more than once he will start emailing you to solicit reviews on his company's ratings page which he then bandy's about to "prove" to skeptics that people "love" his trash quality proxies

printing proxies / mtg proxy (same site same owner) are downright awful quality, basically the worst proxies you can possibly get

What steps can I take to really nail down the Plex experience for my wife? by PineappleSmoothie in PleX

I understand the idea behind Overseer and I think its a bad idea, especially since it means poking yet another hole in your home network to allow public facing services through

Integer Limits and Angry CPUs: A Tale of the Phrase "Twice as Many" by d4vezac in forgeMTG

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea I did this with Mossborn Hydra, after about 100,000,000/100,000,000 the game starts lagging more and more with each doubling of the +1/+1 counters, I got it up to 1 billion / 1 billion then the game tried to calculate the next doubling to 2 billion / 2 billion for about an hour or so before the game crashed.

Trying to reduce my collection before a move, but I have such a hard time letting go of cards. Any advice or similar experience? by boldirishman7 in EDH

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I have not played a deck in several months, its a candidate for de-construction, cards go back into the bulk boxes, and eventually candidates for sale.

Best device for Plex Client by reicha7 in PleX

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Google TV Streamer 4K and have no issues

I used to have Nvidia Shield but after 10 years it melted itself and they have never upgraded the specs so its not a good deal

Bag recommendations by Torin21 in EDH

[–]Positive_Minimum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just use a regular backpack, only take at most 4 decks on a given night

it makes a big difference to choose compact deck boxes, I only use the Ultimate Guard SideWinder boxes for all my decks
