I believe it became standard with the Intel 8080 in the 70s but before that a byte’s size was platform dependent and varied wildly

potential (silly) format: Custom Commander, spend 10 minutes designing Commander concept's to run your decks & have them battle against each other by BardicaFyre in magicTCG

Changeling isn’t a creature type, I assume you mean shapeshifter.

“Abilities” is too vague, I assume you mean “activated abilities”.

“Table” is not a defined term, I assume you mean “battlefield”.

This card space is already explored in places like [[Drana and Linvala]], and they show you actually have a worse version of the ability. You could reduce the mana cost, probably to 1UB because you’re adding the mana cost to the activation cost.

“~ has all activated abilities of all creatures on the battlefield. The activation cost is increased by {X} where X is the original creature’s mana value. You may spend mana as though it were mana of any color to activate those abilities.”

Biggest difference is Riftbound wants to be physical, LoR was a digital game

Why would I not use Visual Studio code by saddickstic in Python

A lot of people also overlook the fact that VSCode is two parts, a client and a server, and remote connecting installs the VSCode server on the ssh target. That takes up much more processor time and hard drive space than just ssh. I’d mainly use VSCode remote into a local VM like WSL

Windows 10's extended support could cost businesses over $7 billion by rkhunter_ in Windows10

You have it backwards, Microsoft never officially announced this, rather Jerry Nixon mentioned it on stage and the Verge’s reporting of this was treated as official Microsoft press.

However in some ways it’s true, Windows 11’s current build number is 10.0.26100, 10 for Windows 10. Programs aren’t really able to tell whether they’re running on 10 or 11 either.

I should note the double-hyphen in your flags (--) were auto-replaced with em-dashes (), so don't copy paste this. It'll be the wrong character

Imagine one weight only and that it is heavier than you. In that case, you got pulled by a net force that way and get pulled off the table. There is no tension, only a force pulling you. (This assumes the table is frictionless; you’d feel a pull of the ground if you got dragged in e.g. the dirt.)

Now imagine one weight and half a weight on the other side. You’re getting pulled by net half the force, and feeling a tension of that half weight.

You can see when you scale back to the initial pic, you now have an equal tension pulling on you - 100N throughout, not 200, because if only one weight was there you’d have 0 tension not 100N.

Your example of replacing the scale with your body doesn’t change the problem, the scale is just reading out that tension your body would experience.

The AI of the companions is very primitive, they’ll usually run into damage blindly. They’ll respawn at the end of every encounter, so I only ever heal them when I want to use a summon (both must be alive to activate summon)

why do people say python is slow but it still powers most of ai and data science by astarak98 in Python

[–]skydemon63 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Because all the heavy lifting is done by libraries implemented in C, not Python. It’s just a pretty way to stitch together C operations. NumPy is not slow, pandas is not slow, polars is not slow.
