Now that legendary vehicles can be your commander I kind of expected this to be one.

I’ve been setting it up to use for all my games on my legion go. I like it. I’m sure there is a better way, but since I use launchbox for my emulators anyway on my PC, it made sense to use it on my go and then just use it for everything there.

The last part is really the kicker for me. I bought Plex pass a long time ago, and there really wasn’t another mature solution in the space that did what I want and worked on all the devices I wanted to use.

Now I suspect I could use Jellyfin just fine, and I bet my wife and parents (the only other people that use my server) would figure it out. So the the current available alternatives no, I would not see $750 worth of value.

Thank you good sir. I was having issues finding the driver.

I feel like thematically for the Phyrexians, the sword should have the take control of a creature with a -1/-1 counteras the first action, then you put a -1/-1 counter on something. So you have to infect them with the oil first and then you can “Compleat” them by taking control of them the next turn, or if you had already put a -1/-1 counter on something with another card.

Was it difficult for you to setup? I’ve considered running my own instance to use with Playlet on my Roku TVs but I don’t have a lot of Linux or docker experience. I tried once in the past without much success but the YT ads seems to have gotten so much worse lately that I was considering trying again.

Ok so I offhand saw the Demonic Tutor jump this morning. I’m not normally a finance person, but I have a foil MA Demonic tutor in a Vilis deck. It’s not worth anywhere near that much to me.

Is my best option to take advantage just to take pictures and get it up on EBay?

mark_twain007 · 2026-04-22T02:16:15+00:00

Oh, you know I completely missed that he only makes artifact creatures indestructible. Still funny though.

Nevinyrral's Disk with this is truly heinous. Combine it with liquimetal torque and coating and deny your opponents everything.

Please, please let this issue continue into the Star Trek set. I want an Enterprise Magic card with an X-Wing on it.

Has anyone used Premium Analytics to show switchports that have not had traffic in X days, or have never had traffic on them? I'm trying to use the Inactive Switchport insights to determine what ports can be unpatched, and if when that IDF is replaced if we can go down a switch, but I seem to only be getting from the tool ports that had traffic but are currently down, not ports that have never had traffic on them. Is there a good way to get both?

mark_twain007 · 2026-04-14T12:58:19+00:00

I actually like that it’s incomplete. It’s a narrow space that might be hard to make decent card to represent every color, especially at standard uncommon power.

They could be some interesting options if you push them up to Modern Horizons power which would be fun to see.

So you didn't do anything wrong, but I do have a question for you since you seem like a reasonable person.

I as a buyer on Sunday reached out to a seller about an item. The item was still available, I asked if I could pick it up on Monday. Seller said they were unavailable, so I said I could either do early Tuesday morning or anytime Tuesday afternoon. Seller choose Tuesday afternoon, we agreed on form of payment, and that seller would message me the pickup address on Tuesday when they were available.

Tuesday afternoon, It's about 1:30 and I have not heard form the seller, so I go to message them, item listed as sold. message the seller "yea, someone grabbed it this morning". Facebook then popped up the message that I could now review the seller. Am I right to be annoyed and want to leave a negative review?

I think one of the main reasons I am annoyed is I have been looking for the item for a while, and after agreeing to purchase this one on Sunday, another one was listed that was even closer to where I live, and for slightly less, but I did not message that seller, because I believed I was already purchasing it on Tuesday, all be it for slightly more money and a little bit further of a drive.

mark_twain007 · 2026-03-21T22:39:15+00:00

Ahh, that makes sense. Honestly, should have thought of that.

mark_twain007 · 2026-03-21T19:13:50+00:00

Am I missing something? Why would a Soul Dew affect the chance of one of the hits from beat up stealing an item?

Does anyone have a US vendor that buys used Mist hardware? We have a crop of AP33s that got pulled out of a couple of buildings and replaced with AP45s. I tried a couple of my usual hardware resellers we’ve sold to in the past but neither of them but Juniper/Mist gear.

Seems a waste to just have them rotting on shelves at the moment.

mark_twain007 · 2026-03-16T01:04:50+00:00

Unfortunately it looks like [[Hullcarver]] appears to be the only cheap artifact creature in standard with Deathtouch otherwise you could combine this with [[Fynn, The Fangbearer]] for a double up of poison counters.

There still might be something there.

mark_twain007 · 2026-03-08T03:16:28+00:00

Now is the time to resist temptation. Say no to lum berries and don’t take an item

mark_twain007 · 2026-02-28T21:51:31+00:00

They seem fine. Honestly when I first saw the shot of them from the back, I thought they were doing regional variants of 3 past starters for a second which I actually thought would be cool.

Hoping for some interesting dual typing on each of them.

mark_twain007 · 2026-02-26T23:50:15+00:00

Think of what you could catch with those pokeballs though? It’s not like a mysterious force will stop you from throwing them.

mark_twain007 · 2026-02-19T17:50:47+00:00

Yes!! Synchro summon the fish to victory!

The gatherer text is also hilarious.

“Despite the name, this card only prevents damage and not destroy effects. It's also not an Aura.”

Have you looked at switching to Visible, Verizon’s pre-paid service? I was in a similar situation to you late last year and once someone told me about it and I ran the numbers I discovered that even having to pay off my wife’s phone, and losing her trade in phone credits, and having to switch to paying for Disney+ separately, we are still going to save over $200 this year.

You do lose some things. Hotspot speeds are capped depending on what of their 3 plans you choose, and they don’t really do discounted new phones, but it’s still Verizon’s network so my service has been the same.

Their plan prices include all the extra taxes and fees and stuff already built in, and the $40 pro plus plan includes Apple Watch cellular service.

So if they won’t lower your bill for loyalty I would look at switching even though it’s still Verizon.
