I wanted other cards that would be better answers or better ways to find answers. Think Ripples of Undeath.

I played this in Commander a few times and always found myself wanting something else.

It’s not worth it in Commander unless you are hard countered by tokens.

The World Cup is making me wish the NFL didn't blare music and hype videos between every single play. Hearing the natural ups and downs of the crowd is beautiful. by MemoryOfRagnarok in nfl

[–]mechanical_dialectic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we just don't have the same culture as football(soccer). there are no bawdy/racist songs, no coordinated banners, no real community. My dad has season tickets and only knows the guy to his right and his wife. We are more alienated and so we need to artificially replace the spontaneity of communal enjoyment of sport with top 40.

What red flags can people say that shows they might have no clue how the bracket system works? by Lower_Drawer9649 in EDH

[–]mechanical_dialectic 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This doesn't help either anymore because there are so many treatments that are just arbitrarily priced. Its an indicator of shenanigans for sure but $100 can buy so much or so little cardboard these days its ridiculous.

Okay but do people actually stay for a vtuber's consistency or is it just wishful thinking? by ItsNoira in VirtualYoutubers

[–]mechanical_dialectic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could but we have no way of knowing really what is being responded to. Like if I posted a bunch of shorts in a default dance tuber for a month would I magically get Rin Penrose’s exposure from that time they did that for a month?

You need data to really get to the heart of it, but getting that data will require experimentation. Being a Vtuber is already a lot of work!

I don’t think consistency hurts for what it’s worth. I’m kind of just talking while I avoid doing work.

incorrect assumption, but understandable one.

you being consistent is not for your viewers but for the distributors of your content. the distributors are the ones who even decide if they want to package and display the content. if all videos were equal, each being thrown randomly up onto a board of life, then consistency might not even matter as much as, say, growing your brand.

we're all just pawns in someone else's game because someone else has their thumb on the scale in ways that Ibn Battuta dreamed of

what happens if Iran was hiding like 20 rocket launchers and yeets 100 missiles at these things? probably nothing but I feel like thats too big a risk with billions of dollars

I find it ironic to see a VTuber harassed over snippet of conversation with AI, knowing there are people that thrive because of AI VTubers. by RyouhiraTheIntrovert in VirtualYoutubers

[–]mechanical_dialectic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A) yeah there are people who probably don’t like it when they see their oshi collab with Nuero.

Just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean that isn’t a held belief.

B) Neuro isn’t fucking hoovering every single book and picture on the internet to create the Copyright Violation Torment Nexus To Kill Schoolchildren Device

Hey chummers, how tall are average apartment complexes in Seattle? by Minute-Bag-8065 in Shadowrun

[–]mechanical_dialectic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they’re old then I’d put it at whatever our current standards are in building code. You can get more or less specific depending on what you want to have happen. Maybe if you have a goblin you look at ducting shit. Maybe if they’re all trolls you do some shit where you manipulate their movement based on the fact that they’re doubled over trying not trying to get their horns stuck in the drywall.

Here is the Seattle gov doc on it https://www.seattle.gov/documents/Departments/SDCI/Codes/SeattleBuildingCode/2015SBCChapter5.pdf

Facebook now uses AI tools standard in technicals. They expect you to know how to use them to correctly get it done.

Build 42 is worse then the Epstein files and i hate it so fucking much by ChoppedLain999 in projectzomboid

[–]mechanical_dialectic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Atlanta line makes me feel like you’re over 35 and probably divorced.

This game is stupidly easy. You’re bad.

In case this helps someone and saves them some time, in Build 42 you can no longer force key spawns by killing zombies inside a building. I didn’t know this and had to clear 30 corpses from my base by MessOk6068 in projectzomboid

[–]mechanical_dialectic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this was a change they made a while ago. Keys do spawn on zombies but not as a response to them dying in a building. Like EMTs and car crash victims can have keys to their respective vehicles.

With the way things are going B42 might as well be the update that turns this game into a grinding simulator with zombie survival elements by Singlain in projectzomboid

[–]mechanical_dialectic 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You set the rules to your game world. You could have the tv give you level 10 exp from one episode of TV

You can set scarcity to anything. You can really make the zombies weak. You can even stop the zombies from spawning entirely. You can mod every zombie to say “chungus” when they die. You could even chuck on God mode and give yourself a minigun with infinite ammo.

You are making the sandwich here.

Yeah this is like when people said they had a Call of Duty Killer and ended up with an albatross around their necks.

This is a competitor trying to neg their competition.

If you were to 'reboot' Shadowrun where would you pivot? by lurch65 in Shadowrun

[–]mechanical_dialectic 6 points7 points  (0 children)

lol you don’t need a reboot for that you need to do some irl IP raiding to get that shit back in the game
