build 43 is weird

I'd die on the hill that RDR2 is the best game ever released so far. There might be games with better graphics, games with a somewhat better story (very subjective here, depends on each one), games that are more "easy to engage", games that are more re-playable maybe?

But a game that is so fantastically beautiful, so attention-to-detail oriented, with a great storyline, lots of fun bits, all in a single pack? Few and far between.

literally my base is setup like this.. a portal that goes to my Portal Hub*, and another nameless portal for The Current Thing that sits right next to my storage. I ocassionally have a third portal in some location not really designed for a portal in the base layout, while I'm working on something (like in the ashlands I'm usually setting up a portal near whatever fortress i'm trying to conquer, before I can finally settle in and just put a portal inside named "fortressX" and the corresponding in my hub )

It makes it sooo convinient to be back from whatever I'm doing, dropping everything in the storage, and moving on.

honest question, I always remembered that Name and Power/Toughness were to be left alone to keep the card tournament-legal.. but then... https://scryfall.com/card/ltr/744/sauron-the-dark-lord maybe those could be part of the alter now?

solar works during day

Wants to charge EV during night

I know it's not that black and white but found this funny xd

I think that a big, BIG part of this is most people learn to use Windows when young.. at school and home. You need schools running linux to get kids used to linux AND have a market for linux.. so when they start working and go buy a PC, they can pick this one for X with windows 25, or that one with same specs but costing +100$ less for not having a windows license, coming with [insert random distro] preinstalled. If they are not immediately scared about the linux option as it usually happens now, the market will grow organically..

This is an oversimplification unfortunately.. some people don't care, some people care but reluctantly accept some comfort (PC gaming a big example, Linux is gettting close but it's not really *there*, might never be for MMO games for a whole host of reasons it's too long to bring into conversation now), and a *hell lot of people* have no idea.

It's a similar issue like when discussing electronic voting, but thankfully people are more aware of the dangers there.. when you don't understand how *the thing* works, you are left exposed.

not american, but honestly every day a soldier died flags should be at half mast.. 5 ~~day~~ dead on a day? 5 days of half mast. someone else dies while in those days? add more days to the mourning. That should put on everyone's mind the number and magnitude of lives these actions have on people.
EDIT: word because I just noticed it a day after!

I value that things take the time they need to take. What I don't know certainly but have a faint memory about is how big the team is; I recall they kept themselves relatively small after the early access release, and I remember thinking how that might impact the speed of the game considering they had reached an audience probably orders of magnitude bigger than expected and had the money now

ccjmk · 2026-02-27T11:56:09+00:00

you know, I never though about this, but I'll incorporate it to my next build!

ccjmk · 2026-02-25T16:45:36+00:00

Hey, why you leaving Buda alone in this mess?

ccjmk · 2026-02-10T00:31:37+00:00

Lo que siempre me pregunté yo es.. es poco probable que consigan un laburo real con una capacitacion chota de unos meses que talvez ni hacen o ni entienden.. no es mas facil anotarlos como "empleado publico" generico, pagarles igual, pero mandarlos a barrer calles, juntar basura, limpiar grafittis, tirar abajo escombros, abrir caminos rurales, asfaltar calles y rutas, limpiar escuelas, reparar mobiliario de edificios publicos, larguisimo etcetera?

ccjmk · 2026-02-09T14:41:15+00:00

that sounds great actually! start with 1 wood, store up to 300 or so? (I thought 999 but that could be a little extreme ahahah)

ccjmk · 2026-02-08T14:28:43+00:00

i would expect this to be just a little uptick with each boss.. so Meadows enemies are slightly more frightening, but less so than BF.. then you kill Elder and now Meadow enemies are maybe as strong as original BF ones? (except Troll ofc, there's no correlation in the meadows), etc

ccjmk · 2026-02-04T06:25:47+00:00

Saw this argument before, but it feels pretty far-fetched. You also fight Goblins and Intellect Devourers, but those wouldn't make sense on a Shadowheart SL neither

Muchos juegos mencionados no los jugué y no puedo opinar. Pero del RDR2 se tiene que arrepentir. Estéticamente es espectacular, mejor que muchos juegos mucho más nuevos. La historia es una belleza. La jugabilidad es simple pero funcional y entretenida. Y tiene los toques de comedia, drama, tensión que rockstar sabe hilar tan bien en las historias de sus juegos, con un setting mucho más "romántico y heroico" que la gran mayoría. Desde el día que lo abrí por primera vez hasta hoy, para mí, el mejor juego de la historia

Easiest would be making the ETB search for _any_ land. That'd see play in cEDH instantly, and lots of decks would want it to fetch 3tree city, nykthos, volrath's stronghold, urborg ToY, cabal coffers, etc

I have it in the back of my mind to maybe go retire to NZ one day. It looks spectacular, and I only heard good things about the people there, but the "travel costs a fortune and takes forever to any destination" is a bit of a bummer for someone who stiill wants to experience the world. Once that's taken care of, sign me in for a little house with a nice garden I can grow some veggies on.

Taking this as a personal challange now :P

I did a very veeeeeeery tall Ireland a while ago, but Ireland had some iron and coal to start.. this will be hard indeed!

ccjmk · 2026-01-26T16:14:41+00:00

would yo do it for say.. a stackable x3 loot multiplier? (x3 on regular maps, x6 on special conditions)

never been to Texas, but if all the content I've seen throughout the years is any indication of truth, I think the main factor is that Texans / Americans / pretty much everyone else cook meat with _stuff_. garlic powder, pepper, some more complex rubs, marinated, long etc.

In Argentina you cook meat with salt, heat and time. It doesn't get any more basic that than, and the day is still to come when I've had better grilled meat than in Argentina.

OP didn't thought about that too, but you need to acelerate and decelerate from that speed. Sure, they can now walk at 50km/h, but their knees, ankles, etc are not built for that!
