"My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"

@googlyeyesonmagiccards this is a travesty and a crime against magic the gathering

Well I've never milled someone out with my aggro deck before.

I was playing an Iroas deck against a Gitrog deck.

Iroas pretty much only kills by attacking.
The Gitrog player played Constant Mists every turn, meaning I couldn't deal combat damage.

I managed to win by putting a Helm of the Host on Etali, and attacking with an ever-increasing number of Etalis.

By the end I was exiling and casing 15 spells from OP's deck every turn.

Then they ran out of cards

Magic the Gathering card The Gitrog Monster
Magic the Gathering card Constant Mists
Magic the Gathering card Etali, Primal Storm

Also, by the end of the game I had basically my entire deck and OP's entire deck on my battlefield. It was dumb. I wish I'd gotten a picture.

Oh, also I had a Robber of the Rich stealing their cards too.

In the past two weeks, two people I know who were in their early 60s passed away from undiscovered heart problems. In both cases, they could have been detected early with a $200 heart scan.

Guys in your 50s: get your hearts scanned and save your family and friends a whole lot of pain and sorrow.

@c_dan4th you can add my uncle to the list of near misses. Last month he went to the ER where they figured out he had severe atrial fibrillation caused by blood clots in the heart. Now he's on medication and off work for a year, but at least he didn't push it further into a straight up heart attack

Anyone know a decent site to buy precon decks without scalper pricing?

Looking to pick a few up for at work. Preferably US based.

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@ethanOS most anywhere you look will have decent prices on recent precons. If you buy the set, $40 per deck is pretty typical. If you buy single decks, the prices will vary some depending on the value of the cards inside. My preferred site is Game Nerdz, but most places should be similar. Avoid Amazon

@tabletopgamingdeals I've played this. It's a really fun game (assuming you like the type of games that take up the entire table).
Also the are amazing. Absolutely worth the value for the minis alone

Biiiiig Rima.
My character, Rima Sahr, is a rune knight fighter. Rune Knights studied the magic of giants and have the ability to grow a size larger in combat. If you then case enlarge/reduce on them, they double in size again.
I have a 3D printer.

She's already the size of an action figure and I still need to print a huge and a gargantuan version (at 18th level I can become size huge before casting the growth spell)

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

For reference, here is the character at regular size

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@jonathankoren I've got the next size up printing right now. We'll see how it turns out.
I'll probably wait on the gargantuan one. I've still got 13 levels before I get there, so a good year and a half before I expect to need it.
I'll be sure to post the huge mini when it's finished

@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

I'm watching and we're near the end of season 1.
Definitely discount DS9 so far. They sure did include an episode where the creepy 50-something alien dude decided to introduce another character to strip clubs and gambling, and the way he cheats at poker is using some sort of prehensile sticky tentacle-like appendage to reach across under the table and steal cards from the dealer.
Later confirmed, yes. That sure was a sex organ.
I'm glad that kind of humor has mostly died.

@richard (also yes I'm aware that season 2 is much better. Looking forward to it)

I've been sketching a lot more lately actually and you've all made me feel more brave to post stuff that's less perfected so here's a bunch more stuff. Some goblins that made me decide to make all goblins Boglins instead. Some attempts to do the same swampy boggy forest in different ways, and some witches (with I don't know what it was meant to be, some kind of animated tree sprite thing maybe)

4 small landscapes. same design, different pens basically
7 witches and a monster

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@pidgeon_pete looking great! I like seeing your attempts, to remind me where I am and where I could go if I tried.

This is a really interesting article from @boulderreportinglab

It's all about bi-directional car charging ports and how they can benefit the city, the power company, and individuals.

@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

I'd be interested to know what this kind of power storage does to the lifetime of the EV's battery.
How many years does it take off the car's lifetime? How much does it cost the car owner?
I'd love to see Xcel actually compensate homeowners for giving them access to power storage.

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@xgranade imo this is more of a rule 0 matter. If I had a card like that in my deck, I would get the table's permission before starting and bring a replacement card in case someone objects.

A campaign committed to preserving an empty concrete lot in downtown is connected to many of the wealthy condo owners next door. https://boulderweekly.com/opinion/millionaires-for-vacant-concrete-pads/

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@bkeegan the picture in the link is a bit deceiving since the area is actually on Walnut, but I agree. The city shouldn't be subsidizing condo prices downtown at the expense of the public good.
Put something more useful than a concrete pad!

"it's all stored locally" is not a panacea for these alarming privacy-invading products!

what exactly is stored locally? what data is extracted from that local data and sent to the company's servers? is that local data being backed somewhere?

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@molly0xfff also, give me my 25 GB back! My computer is already full of bloat ware. I don't want to dedicate MORE space to something that actively annoys me

@c_dan4th I honestly haven't really watched it. I stopped halfway through season 2 of Capaldi. I did watch 2 of the specials with the new doctor and liked him.

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@c_dan4th Dr Who, Trek, SG1, LOTR, and about a dozen other nerd properties.
We're just starting Babylon 5 and I'm enjoying it even though it's discount DS9.

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@c_dan4th yeah I heard that Whitaker was good but the writing team was terrible and the multiple companions didn't work well.
I imagine at some point I'll check out the new season, but no clue when

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@c_dan4th So far the writing, acting, and production value have been mediocre at best, but we're excited to get to season 2 to see if it gets better. We're expecting to love it since we know about the 2 superpowers war trope and looking forward to it

Artemis201,
@Artemis201@mstdn.social avatar

@c_dan4th yeah we just got to the episode Signs and Portents, where some mysterious man reporting to the powerful old alien race is asking everyone what they want. Both ambassadors give impassioned speeches about conquest, war, and power.

I'm sure it's not relevant at all.
