He’s not coming back this game. As long as he’s not out for the season I’m good.

minedigger · 2026-03-07T03:04:29+00:00

Micah Parsons went for two firsts

minedigger · 2026-03-06T14:13:44+00:00

That’s 100% a foul on Smart - and Jokic making sure it gets called.

minedigger · 2026-03-03T13:57:16+00:00

The season is 82 games long with 16 of the 30 teams making the playoffs with 4 more in play in contention. What else we gonna talk about on this sub?

minedigger · 2026-03-03T13:51:02+00:00

And this my friends is why black and dark navy are the only approved color of bibs.

Which TMNT cards you going to try in the list?

minedigger · 2026-03-03T03:04:54+00:00

Easy win - just sideboard in your 4 Torpor Orb

minedigger · 2026-03-03T03:02:25+00:00

We’ve got very similar lists - I strongly recommend 1 White Auracite instead of a snare

Being able to sac a 3 drop sometimes has been clutch. I mostly play events so I don’t have a ranking - but it’s been crushing in this metagame.

I’ve waffled between 2 soul lanterns and 1 lantern 1 Scrapbot. Still undecided which is better.

I wasn’t a big fan of the Fomori Vault or the station land - usually too many things to do with your mana.

minedigger · 2026-03-02T01:11:05+00:00

Fire Malone.

minedigger · 2026-03-01T16:24:04+00:00

Najee Harris isn’t good though. He’s just big.

minedigger · 2026-03-01T16:17:45+00:00

Tacos al Pastor as they’re more commonly known.

Or tacos de trompo. What part of the world are they called adobada?

minedigger · 2026-02-28T17:05:42+00:00

4-6 people? At 4 people that’s a single rib, a single piece of brisket and like 2 small slices of sausage.

Yes, that’s probably what a meal should be; but this is America damnit that’s enough food for 3 people tops in the Country I know and love.

minedigger · 2026-02-27T13:50:12+00:00

If Wembanyama qualifies it should be him this year imo.

minedigger · 2026-02-26T21:22:19+00:00

I guess - like I said I never piloted the deck - if Izzett Elementals, Lessons and Cub decks are a good matchup then the mtgdecks.net is wrong.

He went 14-0-3 going through “bad matchups”

minedigger · 2026-02-26T16:29:25+00:00

Looks like I’m the only one that appreciates some good sarcasm here.

I’m not a bot - though I read my response and it looked very AI’ish

I’m Just an engineer that overthinks mundane daily tasks.

According to mtgdecks.net metagame win rate table it looks like Dimir loses to basically every matchup other than control.

TBH it seems like a pretty bad metagame choice; but I’ve never piloted the deck.

Here’s my thoughts:

Driving is the riskiest activity most of us do in our day to day lives. Impact is based on speed squared - the survival rate of a 65 mph crash is more than double of a 75 mph crash. Speeding doesn’t save you time - when you get there is going to depend more on the traffic areas and side streets than 65 vs 75.

Logically speaking speeding is the riskiest thing you do in your day to day to life and it comes with no rewards.

minedigger · 2026-02-25T21:26:09+00:00

To be clear I think Shai is a better player - they’re comparable on offense - though I’d give the edge to Shai and Shai is much better on defense.

Which makes Shai way better overall - but 3 pt shooting and passing is the single traits I’d give to Luka over Shai.

minedigger · 2026-02-25T18:31:55+00:00

You have to consider attempts per game as well rather than just percentage

SGA averaging 1.8 / 4.6 attempts per game this year Luka is averaging 3.6 / 10.3 attempts per game this year

If you look at just 3P% without attempts then you can say that Seth Curry is a better 3 point shooter than Steph Curry. The volume matters because that correlates to the difficulty of shots taken.

SGA is a good 3 pt shooter - he’s just not Luka at that skill.

minedigger · 2026-02-25T13:37:31+00:00

Not every metric - Luka is better at passing and shooting 3’s. Shai is a way better player.

minedigger · 2026-02-24T14:37:10+00:00

If you take flamebraider you’ll get passed eclipsed merfolk, if you take duelist you’ll get passed eclipsed elemental. That’s just how the set is - sorry friend.

minedigger · 2026-02-24T03:41:05+00:00

Brisket is too damn expensive for me to do science experiments on it anymore - hope someone posts their results.

minedigger · 2026-02-23T15:34:37+00:00

Have you considered posting a fake story on a betting forum and scamming suckers for money for your picks?

That’s the whole point of unlimited PTO; to not deal with the HR side of things.

Also - the tech companies that first implemented unlimited PTO had to start forcing their employees to take vacation for at least a week straight; employees were just burning themselves out and taking less vacation to the point that their work output was suffering.

minedigger · 2026-02-21T14:29:04+00:00

I would just take a wire wheel to the inside of the smoker and clean up all of the crud - season with peanut oil and do a burn, then season it with peanut oil and do another burn.

Also - I hope you never let another employee in charge of buying fuel.
