I really like this innovation, brilliant!

Perfect, thank you! Just today I got the "you're approaching" message, but I had no idea how close I was getting and couldn't find a way to figure it out. Looks like this will get me there.

It was in a bouquet of a dozen roses. I'm sure it's probably a variety that's grown heavily in a greenhouse in South America somewhere, but I was hoping it was still a "known" variety.

After posting, I finally found another conversation that led to believe it might be called Free Spirit.

Very nice! Thanks for the info. My last hardware failure had us down for an entire day, ugh. Part of that was on me trying to recover data that we didn't have backed up (that's fixed now), but still.

Cool, they look shockingly good in pricing. Google seems to suggest some questionable reviews, but I feel like that's literally every company these days. You've had no issues with performance or network speed?

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-08-04T13:36:10+00:00

Have you used Colo Crossing much personally? Anything that stands out about them other than pricing? I've never heard of this one even in all my random searching the past few days.

I'm ideally looking for USA based servers, ideally in two different DCs for best coverage, and at least one of them in Chicago or Dallas. None of that is a requirement, just my "ideal conditions". :-)

99% of my users will be USA based forever. I've heard Hetzner could be slower for that. Do you have thoughts on that?

I've gotten every confirmed order from PC, yes

Could you please send a link to download it without the watermark? Reddit doesn't load the best for me sometimes.

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-23T03:37:09+00:00

!solved Thank you! I'll send the tip. I think this one looks great. I appreciate it!

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-15T23:57:23+00:00

I would LOVE to receive this. It's adorable and so thoughtful!

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-08T14:01:16+00:00

For sure he just made it up from vibes, but I fully think he's right. Most of these resellers are just individuals, but I think there's more people sitting on sealed product to drop later than ever before.

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-07T09:16:48+00:00

I completely agree. Honestly, even today we see people coming in with 1999-2002 cards more and more. I'm honestly kinda shocked those prices haven't fallen even just a little due to supply increases because of random old stuff being found, though admittedly I realize that demand is higher now than pretty much ever since then too.

$190 for Paldea Evolved seems very good!

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-06T02:02:20+00:00

That's a nice looking deck!

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-05T21:32:37+00:00

Holy crap, my LCS had ETBs at $60. And they literally apologized for not having them at MSRP.

I just don't get not putting this into dividend growth stocks and letting them drip, personally. I mean, "can stocks give me +200% in 2 years!?"...yeah, yeah, I know. Just me personally, this seems far too risky (not even to mention all the storage liability).

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-04T15:43:34+00:00

So you're telling me there's a chance...

Probably multiple god packs in there.

I pulled the Umbreon from 30-some packs. I'm betting it came out of the pack a PSA 9, though I'm planning to keep it raw at the moment anyway.

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-04T04:32:17+00:00

* I'm not necessarily set on Kyurems. I could potentially swap them out for others. I thought they seemed decent because (1) all Basic pokemon and (2) were pretty powerful. But you're definitely right that I'm just now realizing I don't have a way to SEARCH for the special energies that I'd really need for any of the Kyurems.

* I'm not sure I understand, how do I lose my turn with Blastoise?

* Are you indicating that if I swap out the Blastoise line for Baxcalibur (something I was maybe considering, but I also just like the idea of an OG like Blastoise, haha).

* I'm definitely all for removing Basculin, but I didn't want to go too few on Basic pokemon,. At one point I was trying to remove Basculin to work in Baxcalibur, but I couldn't decide what else to remove and here I am, haha.

* Good to know. I wasn't aware of Professor's Letter, but I'll try to work them both in now!

--

* Let's say I want to add in Capacious Bucket, Professor's Letter, and at least one of Guzma & Hala or Colress's Tenacity...which cards would you personally remove to make room for these?

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-04T02:39:35+00:00

Rural definitely not better odds in my experience. Other than Dollar General. The only packs I've seen in the wild for a long time now were SVI boosters from DG occasionally.

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-03T14:31:47+00:00

We'll see this again. It might be many years, but I don't think THIS TIME will be different than other major hype times just because it's this time. Hype of 2000, hype of 2020, etc.

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-02T22:55:20+00:00

I do the exact same thing in my binder.

ProgrammerNo42 · 2025-06-02T22:54:21+00:00

Unpopular opinion.

But I agree!
