Sherman should've kept going.

The sheer amount of military equipment produced was pretty impressive, which makes it even more impressive that PUTIN PISSED IT ALL AWAY.

SAOA is astounding simply because they took a flaming pile of shit with a Mary Sue edgelord with ZERO personality and actually turned him into a real character.

No, it was coined for those who supported the soviet invasions of Hungary and czechoslovakia in 1956 and 1968.

"Delete and re-download the entire game, but use a 56k modem."

"My God house, the game launched fine! But how did the 56k modem have any effect?"

"It didn't, the reinstall would have worked either way, I just wanted to waste your time as punishment for being stupid."

Minor correction, it's a million casualties on the Russian side. Dead number is probably around 300k.

But seriously, imagine going from the number 2 world power to a paper tiger that relies on old stock because they don't have the manufacturing capabilities to mass produce new equipment. They can barely keep the old shit running.

Aw man you could've recreated the head exploding scene from scanners on a plane. That would've been the best prank ever.

Glad your head is unexploded though.

"I make no claim"

"You can't prove it!"

I mean, yeah, because no claim is being made. Do you genuinely not understand the difference between no claim and a negative claim? Even if you think they're the same thing, the burden of proof is still on the person making the positive claim.

Lacking a belief in God is not asserting there is no God. I don't know how to dumb this down any more.

Lack of belief is not belief in nothing.

 

My Feldon deck isn't my best, but it's by far my favorite to play. Every time I do, I discover new fiddly interactions I hadn't even considered before. It's capable of getting out of the craziest situations with enough mana and shenanigans.

I recently threw in karn the great creator to test it out. Ended up wishing up rings of brighthearth from my binder, but it played so well in putting it in the main (not sure why I didn't earlier, honestly). My dilemma is I don't have many other artifacts outside the deck that I would really want.

Main question/TL;DR: what are some situationally good artifacts that could go in a mono red artifact/graveyard deck.

Decklist if you're interested. Not up to date but close enough.

 
 

Heading to Bonemass. Realized we were surrounded by plains but noticed a small break in the land. Thought it might be a gap between two separate islands. I was wrong. By that point I had no choice but to rip through it at full sail and pray. I did not die for my mistake, and it was difficult to impress upon my friend just how lucky we were to not have been murdered.

 

I knew of thin mints. THICC mints caught me by surprise.

 

Dipped my toes into Linux maybe 10 years ago. It was awful and turned me off of it. Also the fact that I occasionally have to deal with some bespoke bullshit distro at work that does nothing that literally any tutorial I google says it will.

But I finally gave it another shot. Girlfriend got a smart TV. I got sick of ads. I had an old Intel nuc laying around that I bought for a dedicated DDR machine but it didn't go great, so I stuck dietpi and pihole on it. Was still a mild clusterfuck and had dozens of open tabs trying to figure out what was breaking, but by 5am I had pihole configured and running, a plex server set up, and a desktop. Today I got the ftp server up so I can move stuff into plex without messing with flash drives. Still haven't figured out desktop through ssh but that's a later problem.

Bad news is youtube ads come from the same domain as the videos so pihole is useless there, but I'm still having fun and very excited about what I can do with a cheap piece of hardware I thought was useless. For the next project I'm thinking maybe trying to de-google my Google home minis and have a locally hosted assistant, but that would probably take a ton of research beforehand.

Suggestions, encouragement, and harassment welcome.

 

Truly love the Mandalay for traveling. It's insanely zippy in supercruise making for quicker transitions between stars, the jump range is bonkers even before engineering, and the thermal efficiency means you don't even need to clear the star before jumping. Also it's unbelievably stable in SCO, and maintains overcharge for way longer before overheating.

I still love the 'conda because it does everything, but it's a fuggin' boat and flies like one.

 

Tree was up for a day and it already has its first resident.

 

 

Was gaming. He made himself comfy.

 

Been going to power wreckage to scoop up escape pods for my weekly missions. This pisses off the enemy faction and the start shooting. I shoot back, I get a bounty. What gives?

Edit: I'm a moron. Enemy power system.

 
 

So I've been on the engineering grind. Basically running around doing what I can, adding things to a list when I hit any snags. Yesterday I got an invitation from Lei Cheung who I need to finish out my shield generator. He wanted me to trade in 50 markets. I had 20something out of 50, so I put it on the list for later. In my reviews of what I needed today, he is totally unlocked. I did not do any significant trading in the meantime, and I most certainly did NOT give him 200 gold. I'm not gonna look a gift horse in the mouth, but what the heck? This is also not the first time this has happened with engineers.
