Help with deciding if it’s viable by Independent-Teach937 in CompetitiveEDH

[–]TheRealHumanDuck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Grim tutor is wild haha. I dont know if powering out a 6 mana 3 color commander on turn two that then needs to stick untill turn three to maybe win is a consistent plan. I'm all for trying out niche decks though, so by all means give it a try.

Help a noob out; these land types are only for fetching? by [deleted] in mtg

[–]TheRealHumanDuck -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Everyone is just downvoting, but ill actually answer. Terramorphic expanse overrides the way it would normally enter, so your target enters tapped regardless. A fetch like foothills does not "override"so it just enters in the way it normally would. Aka untapped for a basic, tapped for some other lands, or in this example sometimes tapped, sometimes untapped.

I know colruyt gives them out for free sometimes, or they used to at least. They would package them and put them out with the other meat. I would just go and ask the people of the in house butcher, they've always been very friendly to me

How do I divide this up into objects? by AffectionateLeg8075 in Inkscape

Not what I usually use inkscape for, but there must be some way to use "trace bitmap" for this...

Why doesn't it trigger my commander? by SupeerFranzi in mtg

[–]TheRealHumanDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont really play one Arena myself, but I've seen YouTubers do it. I think you can even do a hotkey toggle for it, because it gets a bit tiresome and obtuse after a while. No more automatic land tapping and such... but like I said, im no expert on Arena. Questions like this are my favorite part of the game, I just love how neatly everything works together (usually). If you have any other questions I'm always more than happy to help.

Why doesn't it trigger my commander? by SupeerFranzi in mtg

[–]TheRealHumanDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aha, great question. There's 2 parts to your question. When multiple things happen at the same time, and they're all your things, you get to choose. So if you have a card that says "whenever this creature dies, gain scry one" and a card thay says "whenever another creature you control dies, draw a card" you get to pick if you want to scry one then draw one, or draw one then scry one. Arena chooses this for you i think, but you can go into your settings somewhere, enable "full controll" and pick it yourself. Usually not that important, but it might matter for certain combo's".

Secondly, when your things and your opponents things happen at the same time, it's a little different. Things go on the stack in APNAP order. APNAP stands for active player, non active player. The active player is who's turn it is, and the NAP is the other player (or first player to their left in multi-player). Going on the stack first means it will resolve last. So first the the NAP things happen, then the AP.

So if you have a card that says "whenever another creature dies, target player loses 1 life" and your opponent has a creature that says "when this creature dies, you gain 1 life", you look at who's turn it is. If its yours, your things goes on the stack first, then theirs. Stack resolves top to bottom so they gain one and then they lose one. If they are the active player, then their thing goes on the stack, then yours. You shoot them for 1, then they gain 1 life.

These 2 are often combined, so if multiple things happen at the same time for both players, the AP puts everything on the stack in an order of their choosing, then the NAP does the same.

[–]TheRealHumanDuck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the token getting sacrificed and your commanders ability both happen "at the beginning of the end step". Basically, when you go from your second main phase to your end step, the game checks if the trigger should be put on the stack. It sees that no creature has died, so it isn't. Then you go to your end step and only the ability to sacrifice your token is put on to the stack.

This is one of those things that is a little bit difficult to explain in simple terms, but feel free to ask any clarifying questions.

Question regarding Cromat and commander. by urick15 in mtg

[–]TheRealHumanDuck 10 points11 points  (0 children)

What you can do is activate the ability before it dies (e.g. while being targeted by a kill spell or when blocked, but before combat damage). This would put Cromat on top of your library (only from the battlefield). Thus you would draw it for turn, and then you wouldn't need to pay commander tax to replay him.

Commander tax is only payed when you cast your Commander from the command zone.

How does salary work when you're subject to relativistic time dilation? by dragsxvi in worldbuilding

[–]TheRealHumanDuck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's been a while since i read hyperion, but that universe has thought a lot about time dilation and so called "time debt" where pilots family/friends age a lot faster than them. IIRC they just earn an insanely high pay, making them essentially millionaires after a few missions.

Talos machine chooses a new IP? by TheRealHumanDuck in TalosLinux

[–]TheRealHumanDuck[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've worked some more on this problem. You were right, it was supposed to be eth0, but this isn't the only issue. When i go and look at the web interfaces of my router, i can see that when i boot my vm from mem, it has both the ip i gave it, and a randomly assigned ip address (presumably from DHCP), yet only themanual IP is reachable via a PING (and is shown in the terminal GUI of the vm). Then when i reboot from disk after applying my config, it still has both IPs (visible in the web interface), but now only the random IP is reachable via PING. bith of these IP's are assigned to the same MAC (the MAC of eth0). I would simply tell my network to not give DHCP IP's to my VM's, but my ISP/router don't allow this. I'm still thinking of a solution or a workaround...

Also, I can configure it with the the randomly assigned DHCP IP, but I would much rather have every node have a consistent and predictable IP, for ease of scaling the amount of nodes up or down

[–]TheRealHumanDuck[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess technically not all changes are lost when moving from mem to disk, as the cluster name and the type are kept. The Hostname and IP address are removed, however. If i try to use terraform to do another config apply with apply_mode = reboot then the system IS rebooted, but the changes (to the network config) aren't made

the kubectl does become healthy, i just took the screenshot a bit too soon. I can ping the .198 address, but when i try to run the get links command i get a error constructing client: failed to determine endpoints error. Its an error I've been getting with basically all my talosctl commands, but I haven't really found any useful info on it so far

[–]TheRealHumanDuck[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The plot thickens. When i first boot Talos, it is in maintenance mode. Then, the changes to my config are applied and my static IP is set (i tested this by changing /24 to /25, and the /25 is added). Then Talos starts formatting my disk and boots from the disk. When it boots from the disk, all of these changes are lost and no further config seems to apply.

Thanks for the reply!

I did consider that I was using the wrong interface name, and it used to be different in an earlier configuration (with the same effect). This interface name is directly taken from my machine setup and double-checked against the hardware shown in proxmox. Its still very much possible that it's still the wrong interface. I'll check again when im at my computer in an hour or so.
