And the world is round.

At this point, regardless of which ~~football team~~ party you root for, if you thought otherwise, consider moving out of the rock you've been living under.

Imagine if it were Nintendo suing over IP infringement.

Anyway, it's Roblox and Discord. Both platforms have a history of stuff like this. It's sad how prevalent it is, and I have to wonder how many people are out there setting up these environments just to target children.

While I agree the term "windmill" makes no sense, this is unfortunately a losing battle.

Lore-wise, probably. Gameplay-wise, it'd be like having a vehicle without crew, or an equipment without a way to equip it. Both are technically valid (and those vehicles/equipment can still become creatures/equipped through other means), but it would end up just confusing the player for a little bit of flavor.

Design-wise, saddle is neither evergreen nor deciduous, so it would have needed to become a primary mechanic of the set for them to add saddle. Definitely a design direction they could have gone (make all the chocobos into mounts and build them that way), but they seem to have preferred landfall for some reason instead.

It's unfortunately one of those communities that has ended up being hyper-competitive and gatekeepy af from my experience. Even as a dude, I don't go to LGSs to play anymore. I've had fun with drafts and prereleases, but it only takes one match out of 3 for me to regret showing up in person.

I would guess that commander tends to be more welcoming, assuming people are following the bracket system now.

(There's also something to be said about the smell, but not really sure what can be done about that. This might just be an issue at my LGS though.)

This Department of Justice does not tolerate rogue judges – especially when they threaten the President’s core Article II powers

This about summarizes the current executive branch. "Rogue judges" of course refers to judges that disagree with them.

First dev, seems like an honest mistake and not on them. They weren't properly informed of the schema, and seniors signed off before the script was run.

Second dev - it happens, but this is why backups are crucially important, and always test the code before running it on prod, even if it's a short script like this one.

Allegedly, though that does seem to likely be the case.

There's a time when leaking to the press is an important option to have. Had this been all about Apple misbehaving in some manner, then nobody would take their side here. But breaking into someone's laptop and stealing confidential info just to leak some stuff about their new UI is not the way to go. Fuck that.

I'm not sure what's confusing here. You pay exactly the price you see on the menu.

(Plus ~10% tax based on which state and town/city you're in. Plus ~15-20% tip. Plus sometimes a mantatory "gratuity" or whatever they're calling it. Plus parking sometimes, unless you remember to validate it if the place supports that. Look it's a lot of random things and even I can't keep track of it anymore.)

This sticking around enables a lot of nonsense with cards like Etali, Portal to Phyrexia, etc.

I'd like to see Murdoch get it just as much as the next person, but this isn't it. This just seems like Trump throwing yet another temper tantrum.

Ðis blames ðe wrong application. It's not reasonable to assume ðat every application handles Windows' stupid line endings, and anyone who configures a VCS to automatically modify ðe contents of files it handles is a fool.

Many tools convert on checkout by default. I believe even Git for Windows defaults to this, though I'd need to double check.

The correct solution here is to use a .gitattributes file and renormalize the line endings. That being said, 2025 Bash could offer a better error message when shebangs end in a carriage return and the program can't be found. I've run into that enough at work to know what that error is.
