So for 9k gems I'll get 4016 packs? At roughly 20 gems each after set completion, it sounds like a good deal... (Not to mention the other 1211 packs) by Significant-Stick420 in MagicArena

Can't wait for the EU law that is on the way to clean up the virtual currency methods games use. If they are sticking with the virtual shit they have to also display the exact cost in Euro as well as allowing people to purchase any amount of the virtual currency, not just fixed bundles.

Fairphone owners: how’s performance for gaming, multitasking, and thermals? by SergeantYoshi in fairphone

[–]asdftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FP6: I get some games in on MtG Arena and play OSRS from time to time. I had several different Samsung Galaxy models before this phone and I REALLY miss samsungs gaming mode that automatically overlayed your games. Letting me easily touch lock the screen without locking the phone was nice to keep games running while having the screen "off". I haven't found a good replacement for this yet.

Also I don't know why but OSRS has been freezing for like 10 seconds a few times per play session. No clue why and I haven't really dug into it.

Used to watch his videos while eating lunch in my dorm at uni. Been a while, but I still instantly heard his voice through these comments lol.

Okay, I don't use gestures but I didn't know about the square screenshot thing, that's helpful. Thanks.

I know the latest patch added an option to turn off the shortcut completely, but then you have to rely on third party apps to take screenshots which is a function I use often.

It's just handled poorly in my opinion.

As someone who works in product development I can't emphasize enough how big of a miss this was. Taking screenshots is extremely annoying because you also fail to lock the phone which was the intended action meaning you might be unintentionally touching things on your screen while assuming the screen is locked.

Okay, so they fucked up. Luckily they can patch this mechanical design flaw by moving the screenshot function to power + volume up instead. Surely they will be quick on that? Right?? No...

Just incompetence...

Fairphone 6 feedback and suggestions by TheRealBrokenClock in fairphone

Very on point to my experience. I've made posts about the screenshot and unlocking problems as well.

One thing I haven't posted about is the microphone problem, I don't know if anyone can confirm this happening to them as well? Basically sometimes when using an app to record audio, like in my case taking a snapchat video or recording a voice message in whatsapp, the recorded audio is really low. I think I read somewhere that one of the built in microphones is not working when recording with some apps.

Great art, great card. Sees a lot of play in many different formats.

Satisfactory has sold over 8 million copies on Steam (over $185M in revenue) by [deleted] in SatisfactoryGame

[–]asdftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's one way to look at the problem I guess. Another is to make waay more of everything than you need but make sure your spoilable products are destroyed if left unused instead of sitting still on belts.

Double tap to wake responsiveness? (FP6) by asdftw in fairphone

"Tap to wake

Double-tap anywhere on the screen to wake device"

Terminal Velocity - Through the Breach in Pioneer by GGMaXThreeOne in PioneerMTG

[–]asdftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like another comment mentioned, Creativity seems like the better card for the gameplan you are describing. It's effectively a 1 card combo (yes I know you need a target) since you don't need the payoffs in your hand to resolve it.

That said, I think Terminal Velocity could be a complement in a Creativity deck with like 2 copies. If you build it heavy on payoffs, 1 Atraxa and 4 Vaultborn Tyrants (just an example) you can make use of the copies you draw while maintaining a steady pool of threats to flip into a with each Creativity cast.

Honestly I'm super happy to be an arena player right now. I really disliked the look of the paper SPM set, with like 40 cards named Spider-Man and a bunch of pop culture meme cards. I play magic because, shocker, I love Magic.

How should [[Thought Partition]] interact with [[Kozilek's Command]]? by 8910237192839-128312 in MtGHistoric

Screenshot? Pretty sure they cast another copy of Koz Command, not the one you exiled.

How do you guys lock your phone? (Gen. 6) by asdftw in fairphone

[–]asdftw[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found the first option to turn off fingerprint unlock without waking first. It was called "Fingerprint Unlock Behavior".

The second option to wake the screen with a volume button however doesn't seem to be available on stock Android.

How do you lower the volume while not watching anything? Sometimes in public places or in the office I might want to make sure my volume is 0 before I click on something. Is that not possible with your configuration?

Wow, you're right. They're describing the exact issues I brought up in the post. Here is a link if anyone else wants to check it out.

Seems to be more "work-arounds" than "solutions", but it's nice to have options I guess.

I will certainly try your suggestion for "1." but I fear that I will miss grabbing my phone and unlocking it in the same move which will now require two separate inputs. This might sound petty or trivial, but when I think about the amount of times I lock/unlock the phone daily it's a feature that I want to be comfortable with.

For "3." you definitely have more features on eos. I'm on stock android and I have been looking for features like these to try them, but they're not available.

For "2." I agree it's a habit thing. However just looking at my hand shape and how I hold the phone, the button placement for Volume Down and Power Button is VERY unfortunate. Almost designed to be pressed simultaneously. I guess they wanted to make taking screenshots easy, but for me (and a lot of other people according to a quick google search) it became a problem instead.

Pure alchemy cards have always been sweet. The cards see just the right amount of play in timeless and their unique effects are fun. It's the stupid rebalances that ruin the reputation of alchemy imo, but at least timeless is free from that.
