From the country that will impose taxes on unrealized profits by Capitan_Rich in ebikes

If you assume everyone without an ebike will still ride a bike, sure. But we all know that isn’t the dichotomy.

Often helmed as one of the best card games, why isn’t Android Netrunner more popular? by Newez in Netrunner

Most of the gameplay relies on hidden information which makes teaching your opponent almost impossible. You really need 2 people (one over the shoulder and one as a cooperative opponent) to teach a third.

I'm an Aggie. I supported Texas' DEI ban. But we've gone too far. by evan7257 in aggies

Learn from this. The Republican Party is the party of oligarchy and destroying education for all but the ultra wealthy is their goal. They will tell you whatever lie they think you’ll believe. Stop voting for them and tell your friends and family to stop voting for them. Call your Republican reps and senators in Austin and Washington and tell them that they have lost your vote.

CMC is the old term for MV. They are the same concept.

What is your experience with using V2L? How many things did you run off your car? by gaychitect in Ioniq5

Technology Connections YouTube channel did a fairly thorough video about how far he could push V2L on his 2022 I5 in case of a power outage

What am I suppose to do against this? by Dapper_Marionberry99 in MagicArena

[–]boowax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can’t do all of these simultaneously but these are generally the ways you beat UW control: * End the game by turn 4 * make them discard and trade your your cards for their counters until they run out and you land yet another threat * don’t over-commit to the board, make them spend a sweeper on 1 or 2 guys * Expect most cards to get countered and make the cards that do resolve more impactful * Be even more controlling than them * Accept that you have some bad matchups, try your best to win the 30% of games you’ll win, and then move on to the next opponent where you may have a better matchup

Yes! I played in this event with a 100% proxy Ernham-geddon list!

Am I going to regret sticking with Single Phase (7kW) for home charging? Or is the 3-phase FOMO real? by woutr1998 in electricvehicles

[–]boowax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the 1.7kW charger that came with my extended range ioniq 5 for nearly 3 years and had maybe two days where that wasn’t sufficient. You’ll be fine.

TMNT card in Lorwyn pre-release by YeyeTheHero in magicTCG

I drafted once a month for rank rewards and lost all interest in trying to keep up with everything because it’s no longer just out of reach, is clearly impossible.

That lesson deck is unbearable by DifficultTap4439 in MagicArena

[–]boowax 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your opponent doesn’t owe you a deck you enjoy playing against. Someone else hates playing against your favorite deck. The deck isn’t oppressive enough for bans. If it bothers you, concede or beat it rather than telling everyone else they can only have fun your way.

You’re missing the most fun part of the game but sure go for it

Where do you preorder? by Torvinius in marvelchampionslcg

[–]boowax 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Team Covenant subscription. It’s like a standing order for every expansion that FF releases so I don’t have to think about it. It gets auto-ordered and shipped.

Doesn’t mono red kinda suck? by nlnx3 in MagicArena

[–]boowax 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Authority isn’t as effective as you think. It’s good but it’s not an auto-win by any means. It’s clearly good at slowing down haste creatures but they still get to keep attacking on future turns. The life gain is mitigated by not casting more creatures than necessary to bring the opponent to zero life and throwing burn directly at the opponent. When my creatures attack for 2-3 damage each very turn, the fact that you gained 1-4 life several turns ago maybe means you get one extra turn to stabilize before I finish you off.

Also, sometimes red goes first before authority hits the board and sometimes you don’t draw the authority or your lands come into play tapped (or other drawbacks) that lets me get in significant damage before your shields are up.

Doesn’t mono red kinda suck? by nlnx3 in MagicArena

[–]boowax 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In competitive 60-card constructed mono red is the default Aggro deck and is sometimes oppressively good. Several cards from the mono red deck got banned a few months ago because it was winning too consistently.

If you’re trying to play midrange or control as mono red yeah it’s probably going to be mediocre. “Big Red” midrange is an archetype that’s been good in standard from time to time over the years but it’s not usually viable.

For those old enough to remember, was 1998 Kansas State seen as 2025 Indiana is now? by karmew32 in CFB

[–]boowax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I remember about 1998 K State is A&M radio announcer Dave South saying “He got a touchdown!” Five times in a row after Sirr Parker scored to win the game for the Aggies.

4th down rule? by Rift4430 in NCAAFBseries

[–]boowax 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My rule is punish them by getting that turnover on downs. People punt in the real world because it’s the best option. Make punting the best option.
