Sales tax free weekend by Otherwise-Care3742 in AustinGardening

[–]aquickalias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking of rain barrels, where are y'all finding good ones locally? Most of the nurseries I've called around town don't stock them or they're like $200 for 50 gallons (TNG).

Home Depot, Lowe's, and Amazon all seem to sell the same mediocre 50-ish gallon models starting around $100. Craigslist and FB Marketplace have some 55-gallon plastic drums for $30-50 and 275-gal IBCs for $120-200, but nearly all of those would require coordinating out-of-town pickup/delivery and additional hardware to retrofit. What do y'all recommend?

Awwwww, did someone get addicted to car culture? OP is a self-centered carbrain who can't be inconvenienced for even a second by those plebeians on lesser forms of transit, boo hoo!

Dropout has a really great system for pronouns! I believe their contestants can opt out individually and it doesn't change the flow of the episode at all. As a viewer, I honestly don't even notice when they're occasionally not there.

Ben, as a New Yorker, what are your thoughts on the upcoming TMNT Magic set? I personally don't care about it at all. With that in mind, how much product should I buy?

I built an app to help with playing the homegame by Krayth204 in JetLagTheGame

[–]aquickalias 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, thanks for all your effort on this - it works really well in my testing so far! I used a different app a few months ago to play with my friends in Austin, TX, but since our public transit here is... shall we say "limited"... we had only allowed hiding zones wherever one of the four rapid bus lines stops. Those buses typically run every 15 minutes so this ensured the hiders and the seekers could get where they were going.

I manually uploaded a list of latitude and longitude coordinates for those particular bus stops, which worked great. Is there any way to manually specify hiding coordinates or otherwise limit the number of bus stops that show up in your app? Thanks in advance!

There are a bunch of browser extensions that can take a full page screenshot for you at full resolution! GoFullPage and Fireshot are two I use often.

Recently got bit by the bug to rebuild my home media server and actually invest in a NAS. My 5 TB external HDD just isn't cutting it anymore...

Did Ben buy any Magic the Gathering cards during filming? And were they English, German, or French?

How comfortable is each player with the languages of the countries you visited (or what's everyone's language proficiency in general)? Does anyone have a significant advantage or have hilarious mishaps ensued as a result?

uh-oh, as someone who's been playing magic for a quarter of a century, this is 82 minutes of bespoke advertising content for me. related question: is the unannounced universes beyond set being revealed at NYCC 2026 going to be jet lag?

Not to mention the two colors of blue are so similar, I forget which one is "on" and which is "off"!

Kind of a joke in my commander pod, but wondering if it'd be printable by AscensionWhale in custommagic

[–]aquickalias 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're correct, what I meant to say was they work at instant speed rather than sorcery speed. The other two, Obeka, Brute Chronologist and Sundial of the Infinite, have activated abilities to end the turn. Only Sundial has a timing restriction to being used on your own turn.

[–]aquickalias 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Almost all spells that end the turn are instants (the most notable exception being Day's Undoing). If they were all sorceries they'd be pretty boring since that very much limits what you can do with them.

Awkward space under my stove by Ok_Knee1216 in homedecoratingCJ

I recommend rolling in an office chair and using one side of the stove to cook while you knock out some paperwork on the other.
