Already sold out, too.
All of them are great but I really have to call out Halo: Reach as being an absolute narrative masterpiece.
Insane luck!
CONGRATS!
My roommate has been shiny hunting VC Crystal Celebi off and on for about 3 years. Like 4 ish months ago I made a save on my 3DS and started doing soft resets. My app isn’t letting me upload the picture as proof at this time but we recently found it on my 3DS. We were watching TV and I wondered what it sounded like so I watched a video of someone finding a celebi. About 5 minutes later I actually got it and my roommate looked over like “wait did you watch the video again?” and then realized.
We don’t have official numbers on odds, but our estimate was that they had at least a couple thousand resets. I probably did a thousand or so on my machine. We guess we’re under odds by a good margin. Still insane to me. I sort of had to go sit down. I’d had a few 1/4096 odds in Violet while doing other hunts but never a 1/8192 in an older gen game. Might be the rarest shiny I’ll ever get.
Thanks for the links. I've been mapping in OSM for a year ish now off and on. Nice to find it in the lemmyverse
There may be more people watching Deadlock than there are watching and playing Concord today based on available data and reasonable extrapolation. Valve continues to market in a unique way that works.
That was the argument before this case, and in the virtually certain case the judge denies Disney’s motion, there is no additional argument besides “Disney is even more petty and scummy than we all thought.”
This isn’t so much an argument for piracy as it is an argument to not patronize Disney. Especially considering that Disney’s motion for arbitration is so far beyond baseless that it’s baffling they’d even attempt it.
AKA: No, Disney will not be able to force you to arbitrate a dispute just because you once (or still do) subscribed to Disney+. Their motion will be denied, and pirating their content will not - in any way - afford you legal protections in the future.
I think it’s just Tim Sweeney’s way of saying, we will adjust our approach in the future, like what any publicly traded CEO would do.
Epic Games is a private company.
If it were public, they would not let Sweeney throw (large amounts of) money into the shredder like he tends to do.
I bought a Tesla Model 3 back when they were new and I like Halo, so I named it "Silent Cartographer" for both being quiet and going places. It's wordy AND nerdy, so I don't really refer to it by its name.
My guess is building hype, probably.
I’ve seen no indication Valve is upset at what has transpired besides banning the person who shared information, which is the exact same thing they do to random people who (mistakenly or otherwise) stream the game on twitch/youtube.
Valve absolutely knows if they want Deadlock to be an absolute secret, they need to issue NDAs. They didn’t, so it must be something else.
Valve isn't really angry as far as I can tell, or have heard. They're about as angry as any other person which goes and posts this stuff online: revoking access. If Valve wanted to expand their testing userbase without people leaking it online, they would have sought NDAs and other legally-binding agreements with testers and - by extension - journalists who can test the game.
The game lives or dies on its aesthetics IMO. It’s a looter shooter with stiff competition launching quite a bit late. I love the aesthetic enough to be willing to give it a shot so long as it’s F2P.
If it doesn’t live or die on aesthetics it’s probably that they effectively re-define the genre like Apex basically did when it launched (also late to the party).
Only way to get to more than 2 parties is to vote for the one party that doesn't want a dictatorship, sadly.
Worlds War 3?
In trying to find privacy-oriented map software, I found OsmAnd as well as OrganicMaps and shortly thereafter began contributing to openstreetmap. It’s actually quite easy and IMO fun to find discrepancies and use your knowledge to help an open data set.
Not only have I seen my edits show up in proprietary softwares, but the area around me is more accurate, to the point where recent construction to the road network was updated on OSM and Apple Maps, but not Google maps.
I just checked and Google maps is still out of date.
Definitely fake. Batch identifier plus a lot of things (label quality, top notch) being a bit off, and the stamp code not being CPUENXXXX. https://www.gameverifying.com/wiki/cart-based-systems/nds
I did this and it kept my preferences, for your edification and anyone else finding this comment.
Ended up with blue-green frogs, primarily. My prerelease box didn’t really get many of any one creature type, but frogs was closest and the other cards I had in blue green made it reasonable. I didn’t really bounce much using the frogs but they reduced the cost of my two polliwallops enough to give me the edge in most of my matches. Went 2-1-0.
Takeaways:
- Seems like a lot of decks make it to 6+ mana reliably in this set
- Lots of synergy in creature type so if you don’t get many of the same type, you need to get creative with deck builds
- Pawpatch Recruit is really good value for 3 mana and makes it really annoying for your opponent to play around
- Treeguard Duo is awesome
- Spellgyre is expensive for a counter but holding a counterspell and then surveil 2 draw 2 is very nice.

> In a video by @[email protected], Alec goes into a deep dive into the simplicity of his particular model, its shortcomings and variety of data logging tests in an attempt to fix them. > > TL,DW: Very simple, cheap and ingenious design, with one compressor loop between the fridge and freezer in series. However, its temperature sensor is wonky and so the fridge is more affected by how long the compressor operates than the actual temperature itself. There is a signficant temperature differential between the top and bottom, fans on the exterior or interior could help but with the faulty sensor only made matters worse. With the controller replaced with a proper temp control unit the fridge functioned much better.
