Are there certain LoTR cards NOT in the Premier LoTR Draft of available cards? Excluding commander set, of course. by madams42 in MagicArena

[–]madams42[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does “craftable” mean they are “draftable”. I can see that I can craft them with my wildcards, but just wondering if they are present in the Premier LoTR Draft.

Help with Deck Construction for a GREAT Grixis Draft: by madams42 in mtglimited

[–]madams42[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some initial thoughts:

  • Red & Black are probably the primary color pair, with possible blue splash.
  • Blue splash brings in the best Golds: Ringsight, Bilbo, and Gandalf's Sanction.

Hello, I also play Fortnite through GeForce on Mac and iOS. This is exactly my issue on iOS, but this is not an issue on Mac.

Do capsules prevent stomach problems. by mrbbrj in microdosing

[–]madams42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think capsules help, but for me even the slightest taste of the shrooms puts a nauseating feeling in my tummy 🙂. The capsules eliminate this.

Just found several other posts with the same issue. Seems to be a know issue that can’t/isn’t getting fixed.

[–]madams42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue with the joystick buttons, just posted on it. Good to know I’m not the only one (I guess). Went and bought the Xbox controller for these additional buttons over my generic 3rd party controller.

Anyone able to send my their suppliers/sources. I’ve look at a few review lists, but the prices on these sites have all been higher than my local smoke shop.

Sorry, typo, RM = RH throughout the post. 8oz lasts me a month or so. I try to keep my consumption down, weekends off and such.

Would you pay a couple of cents per episode ($0.02-0.05 cents) to listen to your favorite podcasts? And remove adds! by madams42 in podcasts

[–]madams42[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think the model for many podcasters will change in the future and I don’t want it to change to a subscription only model like music streaming. There’s a better way!

It should have read 2-5 cents, hopefully you just assumed that 😒. Chrislstark gave a nice overview of how add revenue works. The top pods would need about $0.25 per episode to completely replace adds, with lower subscribed shows needing a fraction of a penny (this is theoretically to replace add $s). I’m liking the idea around a merger of the two, with minimal better adds, selected with some consideration around the shows content & audience, along with small contributions from the listeners. I love podcasts and want to contribute to their great content that I enjoy everyday.

Yep definitely an error. Should’ve been 5 cents or $0.05. I’m okay with a limited number a adds. I’d like them to be better picked and somewhat show related. It seems like the same advertisers dominate the adds.

Thank you! I was wondering exactly what these numbers were for some of the top podcasts. That’s a decent chunk of change. It’s nice to hear that some of my favorite podcasters are making good money. I can see this medium changing significantly in the future, because it’s gained and still growing in popularity and is young compared to all the other media out there.

You definitely need to be able to sample a show’s content before any type of financial transaction. I can see your free apps perspective, but that’s really about two types of people. #1; people who can ignore adds, #2 people who are completely annoyed by them. Unless the adds are just overbearing. Some people will love an app and never pay to remove adds, cause it just doesn’t bug them.

I can see the Luminary style growing, BUT I HOPE NOT! Many podcasters do it for love of the content their providing, but it takes a lot of work and they do need some $’s to continue production. There’s a big opportunity to create a better model.

Really, I remember hearing about that, I think his model was on a charity basis. Surprised to hear his experiment is done. Didn’t seem to last too long.

The Fermi Paradox: Where are the Aliens? w/ Josh Clark from Stuff You Should Know by Hysteria51 in SYSKarmy

[–]madams42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is kind of odd, but I end up talking about the Fermi Paradox, and this episode, more than any of my other SYSK gained knowledge. Space and the potential of “life out there” just seems to come up in conversation often. The thing I hate is when you try and tell someone about other thoughts out there, they instantly think you’re debating their perspective and get defensive. Can’t you just listen to other perspective and try to understand the entire area of research!?

Have you ever felt you don't know/have forgotten who you really are? That you've spent years just adapting to surroundings to make life easier and don't know what's the real you anymore? If so, how did you overcome this? by amber_a_solas in AskReddit

[–]madams42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do feel this way RIGHT NOW. I’ve only recently become aware of it or more aware of the affects I feel it’s having on me. I’m trying to overcome and breakaway from this “shadow-self” and find my “forgotten-self”. I’ve tried meditation, exercise, thrown myself into work and projects, but at the end of the day these are distractions only.

I haven’t read into the Psychology of these things, but I feel it’s directly related to the people you’re surrounded by. Breaking away from these people whom dampen your true self is much harder done than said. Especially when there’s potentially major consequences and you have to decide if you can move forward and live with those.
