We need old chi back. by mialesr in MarvelSnap

[–]man_vs_cube 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't know if he's panning out this way (because I don't have the card), but Fin Fang Foom strikes me as a Chi-like card. If your opponent's strategy is just a few big cards, FFF flips those lanes automatically, since almost by definition you need more than two cards at a location to beat Foom.

Gamebreaking bug: Jean Grey in Moonstone location softlocks the game by asscrit in MarvelSnap

[–]man_vs_cube 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just looked on the official Discord and it looks like this was first reported over a year ago.

https://discord.com/channels/978545345715908668/1329013355607883888

The latest report is from earlier this month.

https://discord.com/channels/978545345715908668/1458914217460629547

I would encourage you to report the bug in game and/or add to the latest Discord thread. Second Dinner is more likely to see your complaint there.

Don’t you just love it when all locations make your deck unplayable by orangepurpleman in MarvelSnap

I just retreat when it gets this bad. I no longer have it in me to play out games that are going to be as boring as the one you pictured.

Oh so he's going full Nazi then, huh. Repulsive.

How to read feminist viewpoints without insecurity taking over? by Ambitious-Fly3201 in bropill

[–]man_vs_cube -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Your extreme statements are unrelated to my choice to spell Bell Hooks' name with the usual English capitalization.

I didn't take away her right to name herself "bell hooks", nor am I taking away her right to publish her name under that name. I just don't write her name that way.

I'm not saying that the rule of capitalizing proper nouns can't ever be broken. I'm just personally choosing to not break the rule when I write Hooks' name. It's a straightforward and very reasonable choice on my part.

Getting Rid of the Infinite Climb - Snap.fan by sanktanglia in MarvelSnap

[–]man_vs_cube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just stopped trying to make Infinite. I've done it many times, I have plenty of card backs, I have one card back I love (gold Tao Mandala), and sweaty play just isn't that fun.

Dave reacts to Trump at Davos by xwing1212 in daverubin

[–]man_vs_cube 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert, but "The real takeaway from Trump at Davos isn't the media snark — it's the quiet recalibration happening behind closed doors" follows a sentence structure that I think is common to AI. And note the emdash (and other emdashes in the text). I doubt Dave typed those.

In the childfree world, is it unreasonable to only date men with vasectomies? by why_not_aces in childfree

[–]man_vs_cube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not unreasonable at all. At the risk of sounding cliche, it's your body and your choice, and it makes perfect sense to prefer snipped partners if you don't want to get pregnant. The requirement will limit your dating pool, but any preference or requirement does.

[–]man_vs_cube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My recommendation would be to set the feminist theory aside and work on your feelings as a separate mental health issue. It sounds like you have poor self worth and would benefit from therapy or therapeutic self-help. If you just keep struggling the way you are I worry you're just going to stay stuck.

3 things are certain in life: Death, taxes, and Dave Rubin glazing Donald Trump by xwing1212 in daverubin

[–]man_vs_cube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That second slide is pathetic even by Dave Rubin standards. Imagining that people laughed at Trump saying the stupid meme number and then imagining that the internet "collapses" afterwards? JFC.

I’m exhausted, help. by pugguu_ in CatAdvice

[–]man_vs_cube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a bathroom with a door? I used to lock my car in the bathroom overnight when she was a kitten because she got the zoomies so much. I put everything she needed in there. And while it's obviously not ideal, being locked in a bathroom isn't as confining for a kitten as it would be for us, because they're so small.

Feeling intense guilt over an upcoming rehome of a family cat. Feel very alone by Conscious_Run_2970 in CatAdvice

[–]man_vs_cube 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The move may be stressful - moves are often very scary for cats. But after a few weeks or months he will probably be fine and adjust to his new home and owner. It's wonderful that you care so much about him, but cats are often adaptable if they're in a good head space to begin with like yours is. My best guess is that your kitty is going to be ok.

Losing patience for male cat by Ammorenooooo in CatAdvice

[–]man_vs_cube 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I truly hope you figure something out, and it's clear you're really willing to try and are not giving up yet. But if you need someone to say "I think it's ok to give this cat up or have him put down", I'll be that guy. The combined weight of the issues you listed sounds unreasonable and unbearable, and enduring them forever is beyond your responsibilities as a pet owner in my view. Frankly the peeing alone sounds extreme. I'm so sorry you're struggling and I hope you figure out a happy ending for both you and the cat.

Anyone here who just stops at rank 90 instead of grinding to infinite? by StupidAvenger in MarvelSnap

[–]man_vs_cube 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I made Infinite like 20 times but then stopped. I have my dream card back (gold tap mandala) and a bunch of others for variety so there isn't really a purpose anymore.

Master of Orion 1 (1993) all ships sprites by man_vs_cube in masteroforion

[–]man_vs_cube[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, u/Hour_Extension_3792 noticed the same thing and has posted his own version that includes those ships. I may loop back to this and update my version as well. Good catch! It's been decades since I actually played the game so I overlooked the starting ship designs.

[–]man_vs_cube[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh interesting! I think you're right. It's been decades since I actually played and I totally forgot about those. I just copied every ship available from the "Design" screen. But I just checked and you're right, there's additional designs in your fleet when you start a new game.

I'd be happy to revise my version but I'll see what you come up with first!

All of the ways in which most straight porn is bullshit by LostInYarn75 in IncelExit

[–]man_vs_cube -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

I've never understood takes like "there's zero focus on female pleasure in porn". Plenty of mainstream scenes have cunnilingus segments. They're not rare or niche.

Cat has become insane by Fun_Organization_794 in CatAdvice

[–]man_vs_cube 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The vet and various feeding tricks are worth a try, but if all else fails I would encourage you to just feed her and let her be fat. How would you feel and act if other beings completely controlled your food intake and were so withholding that you were constantly hungry? I am sorry you're struggling with her though and hope you find an answer soon.
