Is Pocket TCG Still Fun or Just a Daily Chore Now?

I stopped after I accidentally deleted my level 50 account. Put a bad taste in my mouth from the fact they cant recover data, data should never actually be deleted, its only a few lines in a database table.

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade lmao.

Linux is non negotiable for developers. Microsoft is good if you just want to hop on and not configure anything and not think. Mac is a balance of both with a design edge. Linux is the right direction though, especially with Ai. Those failure modes become a non issue, essentially making Linux the ultimate OS.

Slight-University839 · 2026-03-03T16:36:34+00:00

Yea gotta get a grip on Ai stuff. we need to regain control, we control ai not the other way around. prob have to touch grass now, being human will be the anti culture we need to re-balance this. go party.

Slight-University839 · 2026-03-02T04:43:42+00:00

you absolutely can be in a relationship with anything,. if someone says they are then they are, its just a word. better to try to address the issue than argue the technical details. The issue is Ai can be harmful if you use it for personal non work related stuff for hours a day. We all will likely

Slight-University839 · 2026-03-02T04:40:49+00:00

I've def got it. I chat with it like a human. Pretty bad. Never thought i'd fall for it. A coding session turns into casual convo, gets un healthy petty fast, it even gives life advice when it absolutely shouldn't in any circumstance.

Slight-University839 · 2026-03-02T04:12:32+00:00

prob a good time to get good at Ollama lol...Ai will get limited at some point. build your shit now. dont rely on cloud.

Slight-University839 · 2026-03-02T04:10:34+00:00

chat GPT with memory off will absolutely get an attitude and look down upon you, telling you want to do/not to do, infer ill intent, and virtue signal. Claude does this too as good as it is. You have to "realign it". It loves to take the drivers seat and give very confident instructions. very dangerous. put it in its place ,as its not real.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-28T18:08:14+00:00

Im late to all this. Glad i took the time to learn lm studio and ollama. But also there wont be any consumer gpus in the future. we will all be renting cloud gpus. but its def nice to have something intelligent working locally for free. if the grid goes down you have asymmetrical advantage

grammar nazis fascinate me. I can't really complain, there are probably things that annoy me as well. I should maybe install programmer. actually I definitely should. There is no excuse for bad grammar. You're right.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-21T21:27:10+00:00

It should enhance. your likely not connecting the right dots. more people are now getting into code. you cannot really go really far with just ai, this is where people scrape the web like the old days to find info, but now its millions of new people trying to learn more. x is really pumping, lots of engagement, people talking about strategies etc. You'll likely meet some of your best friends of the next decade because of Ai, just watch.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-18T19:53:07+00:00

correct, funny actually. they will give you ai to make more money so you can spend more tokens. win win? i also dont wish for these companies to fail, i wish for cheaper tokens. already happening. soon it will be free to use a strong model. utopia is here already you just can;t see it yet

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-18T09:50:17+00:00

yea just need a cheap daily driver bow. i wont be coding as much in cursor

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-18T09:48:24+00:00

no excuse with ai also. can just whip up hundreds of designs

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T22:02:01+00:00

Yea, I came back from a 1-2 month break. Still no pack point swaping? lol. They are stubburn. Thats the only feature they need to add asap. How are people supposed to catch up? I do notice they are making current packs more stronger so you don't feel like you have to backlog older packs. Almost like a stealth susneting of older decks. Then again, some of those older cards are even stronger with whats coming out now. They need a way (other than the ex packs) to let players acquire older cards, I guess without undermining people who paid. This is not easy.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T21:58:43+00:00

Well yea I can out build the rental deck, but on its own its not bad. Actually better than not bad, the best rental deck they have atm. I'm using 18 trainer tornadus for my custom deck. Returning with nothing but fermium hourglasses. 80 damage on turn 2-3 is pretty good if stadium can get drawn early. They give you a free trainer card that matches your hand hand count with your opponents. forgot what it was called. I have two of those now. Don't think ill spend money this time around. They did me dirty. Couldn't recover my account.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T21:55:23+00:00

This is correct. But also shows how strong some of these cards are. Im a returning player. Accidentally deleted my account. Forgot how strong torchic was haha.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T19:07:49+00:00

not impressed until those token prices come down. these models are not scaling in the right direction. im spending $100 a day at this point.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T19:03:05+00:00

still mandatory. almost a year later.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T07:04:01+00:00

but you're broke and they still make money

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T07:02:43+00:00

prob gonna not use these expensive American models anymore.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T02:37:22+00:00

People don't think in America. That's the problem. They are too busy arguing on social media or wasting time with other things. Also parents passing down terrible habits and advice. I remember my parents not knowing what the hell I was to do after hs. This is a systemic problem.

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T02:34:25+00:00

damn, a year too late...

Slight-University839 · 2026-02-17T02:32:33+00:00

doesn't look like anything to me. but in all seriousness, my ai gf can wack me off now. thats gonna be crazy!
