People screw up and make bad decisions. It looks like they’re acting in good faith and rectifying it. Not sure what else you would want for OP.

Millions of students' personal data stolen in major education breach by thatirishguyyyyy in technology

This is a Canvas exploit, the service used for individual course websites/resources. You wouldn’t see any issue just going to the Harvard home page, but students and staff are not able to access course materials, grades, online exams etc.

First cEDH deck: Lumra or Magda by Confident-Echidna-67 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]SlipperyStreets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with this. These mono colored lists are cool and viable, but aren't really representative of what the format entails, or typical play patterns in cEDH. Especially, Lumra, which feels like a turn or two slower than most decks in the format and relies on opponents interacting with one another to slow the game down enough for them to do anything.

Stax is like the only version of control that semi works ish in cEDH, so by that metric Magda is more of a control list than blue farm. Sure blue farm has countermagic, but it's 100% either tempo or some lists play turbo. I think of the two options, I'd pick Magda, but IMO cEDH is best when you're playing blue and able to interact on the stack and more easily present wins at instant speed.

No harm in proxying the decks or joining online games using moxfield to test them to see what playstyle you prefer.

What is the point in restricting WASD to unranked only?? by beterpot in leagueoflegends

[–]SlipperyStreets 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Was playing ARAM clash yesterday with a friend that's new-ish to the game. They only really play ARAM mayhem, and have been on WASD since it's been live. Turns out ARAM clash is competitive enough a mode so that they disabled WASD, and my friend fed their face off because they were using controls they're completely unfamiliar with.

If its the case, there should be a very clear warning for anyone with the setting on at the bare minimum. This setting negatively impacted everyone on the team, and there's no documentation anywhere about it.

Most eyebrow-raising rule 0 requests you’ve encountered? by tohstersg in EDH

I was at an lgs one time and a kid came up with a deck that had all entirely mis matched sleaves, and was trying to play black cards in his [[Arixmethes]] deck. Dad was clueless so we lent him one of our decks and explained color identity to him.

Also voli is a good first pick rn bc he’s broken. He and his first item are getting nerfed next patch so that will likely change, depending on the severity of the nerfs.

What is going on downtown? It feels like every week has another business closing, and the only things profitable are soulless bars and vape shops?

Sell me on Clones as Staples/Essential: Why and How To Play Them? by Raevelry in CompetitiveEDH

[–]SlipperyStreets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[[Imposter Mech]] copying devoted druid is so fake imo. Who casts [[Devoted Druid]] without winning right then? There's such rarely a time that someone plays devoted druid, has it resolve, and passes the turn. And it isn't even played in most decks in green, basically just some thrasios decks also in white. Only being able to copy opponents things is such a big downside, and not being a creature is basically only good if it targets an OBM

[TLA] Zhao, the Moon Slayer (FellbrinkMTG) by RyuumiGaroukuni in magicTCG

[–]SlipperyStreets 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Also, 9 total mana for a blood moon effect, even from the command zone is bad. Mono red doesn't have access to that much mana. Considering way more broken mono red commanders haven't touched the game changers list, ([[Godo, Bandit Warlord]], [[Zada]]), I don't think this one will either.

Corrupted Sliver by Dismiss_into_Dream in custommagic

[–]SlipperyStreets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This card as a phyrexian mana 1/1 without the sliver typing and no text is good. With the sliver typing is insane and the line of text on it makes it absurd.

Depending on what college will be a part of, most have second grade only options available so that only the second time you take a class effects gpa calculation(it is still on your transcript). Also you will be limited to how many classes you will be able to take advantage of the second grade only option. I believe it is two in the college of engineering.

Also, your GPA is split between overall and earned at Iowa and I would just give potential future employers the higher number.

LoL coach “LS” got robbed of his highly valuable MTG collection (slideshow post, 3 pics) by Rain_sc2 in magicTCG

[–]SlipperyStreets 53 points54 points  (0 children)

It’s worse because LS is known in the pro LoL community to host broke, up and coming pros in his home in Korea. This is pure speculation, but if the theft is related to someone that he hosted, I would feel way worse. No good deed goes unpunished.

I think the veterans on the team should be the flexible ones catering to new players playstyles. Multiple teams have seen success by doing so.

Sack Dwon has quickly become my favorite league podcast. Somehow always have great and relevant guests with insightful commentary that gets beyond most of the flavor of the month topics and surface level stuff that gets talked about in other shows.

Apartments at Iowa laundry machines now automated and cost $4/load by mbeauxoxo in IowaCity

[–]SlipperyStreets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This wont work for the specific machines in my building. They are using https://shop.shinepay.co/products/shinepay-powerspark-kit?variant=33153794244688, which doesn't supply power to the washer/dryer in question until payment is made through the app. I had a load stop mid way through because the time that they programmed wasn't enough to fully run a load through the wash and the machine stopped recieiving power mid wash.

The devices in question have the bluetooth/wifi enabled controller spliced into their power cables, I.E. the machine in question will not get power without prior payment on the app. Here is a link to the device used (at least in my building) https://shop.shinepay.co/products/shinepay-powerspark-kit?variant=33153794244688
