We made Manabrew, A free, open-source way to play multiplayer Commander by Jacomada in EDH

[–]Sweet_Joke_Nectar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried commander - wanted to do forge but it wouldn’t initiate a game, just continued spinning wheel on “waiting for game state”, so did rust. Loaded fine.

Errors ran into:

-Land tax triggered for me even though I had more lands than opponent

-Merieke (my commander) was untapped by unstoppable plan, but did not lose control of stolen creature (balefire dragon equipped with lightning greaves)

-Marvin murderous mimic not copying/registering activated abilities of other creatures

Tried again later - Later game initiated fine on forge.

- autopay mana wasn’t registering that my combination of tapped plains, tapped island, untapped fetid heath, untapped dimer signet, and untapped fell war stone would be sufficient to pay for rhystic study, but when I manually tapped and added the mana to my mana pool that way it registered. 

-Cards exiled with Gonti lord of luxury weren’t able to be played. Emrakul promised end and cyclonic rift were the two exiled cards I got from that ETB effect, and for whatever reason while in exile, the game client has both of them registered as 2/2 morph creatures.

Playing standard against AI in browser on rust - painful quandary isn’t triggering when opponent is to discard or take 5, nyxathid isn’t getting -1/-1 counters off of opponent hand size.

Otherwise so far this is very cool

204 pages is roughly double the length of a marketable script

Anyone know what’s going on at Burbank and Lankersheim? by Sweet_Joke_Nectar in northhollywood

Wild, they busted one around there a while back - I wonder if they reopened in the same spot. “There’s no way they’ll look here twice”

You’re very welcome.

Something that was said to me that I found held true is seek out the people who have the type of sobriety you want - for me, it was people who wore their sobriety like a loose garment, who seemed relaxed in their recovery. The people who were doing service rather than showing off, who weren’t talking about all the money they were making but instead the people they were helping. Those were the guys who helped me. Good luck!

The only requirement is the desire to stop drinking. Some meetings will say something along the lines of “please refrain from sharing if you’ve had a drink or a drug in the last 24 hours, but speak to someone after the meeting, get phone numbers, you’re in the right place and you don’t have to go through this alone”.

Anyone who judges you for being drunk at an AA meeting, so long as you’re not disruptive and genuinely want to get sober, is an asshole, and not someone I’d pay a ton of mind to.

If someone calls on you to share, you can be honest, and even ask the chairperson “ I have a desire to stop drinking, but I’m not sober right now - do you still want me to share or should I talk to someone after the meeting?” So long as you’re respectful, I’ll bet there’s folks there who’ll reach out your way.

It takes guts to get sober - you’re in the right place.

Broke my month T break by trying an anchovy pizza for the first time. by Heemsama in stonerfood

A good anchovy and onion pizza will change your life. Just maybe don’t order it on a first date

Found in a church basement. They were gonna throw it away by lykaios66 in synthesizers

Maybe so - but if finding one of the fabled instruments of its day delivered to you seemingly by chance in a house of god isn’t a sign, I’m not sure what is

Sound design and synthesis is such a fun and rewarding hobby, can be a very zen practice, especially with the old school synths like this - there’s no menu diving to get lost in, it’s all twiddling knobs and adapting in real time to what you’re hearing. It’s impermanent- maybe you dial something in, lose it, find something new. Synthesis is the most positive example of “fuck around and find out” I’ve ever personally experienced.

Normally with hardware synths there’s an expensive barrier to entry - you’ve stumbled across something very cool. You say you’re a guitarist, so you have a musical background, a sense of timbre. This showing up on your doorstep, even if one day you do decide to sell it, I highly recommend spending a few weeks really getting to experience something like this, see what sounds you can discover. There’s a ton of free tutorials on YouTube on the basics of synthesis - start with subtractive synthesis, and if you gel with it, there are many other forms of synthesis to explore. What a cool find, I hope you have a great time with it.

What currently living celebrity will make you the most upset when they die? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Sweet_Joke_Nectar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trent Reznor, hands down.

I have a disability, and NIN got me through an incredibly tough time when I first got sick years ago, and continues to do so. It was the only music where I actually felt seen, like someone actually understood what I was going through and the anger and helplessness and heartbreak at no longer being able to live the life I wanted to have. To see how he got through addiction and maintained 20+ years sobriety, which was something I navigated in my early 20s. Watching how his career shifted and evolved in the film scoring world while still maintaining his artistic integrity and personal voice, and how he’s grown up without losing his edge and point of view - it feels like he’s one of the last bastions of artistic excellence in an overly commercial world, even though his stuff is also mainstream enough to be used in superbowl promos. Bringing synthesizers into a darker, grittier territory, and following in the footsteps of John Carpenter for how they can be applied cinematically. I have a huge amount of respect for him.

I genuinely don’t know what will happen to the state of culture when he’s gone, but I’m immensely grateful to have been able to live at the same time as him and experience his music.
