    No one has really run a Turing Test against it, because it doesn't pretend to be a real person.

    The MTGA holiday cube this year was excellent. It was different from the MTGO holiday cube but they were both excellent in their own way.

    Most of those external enclosures don't support firmware updates, you're probably better off buying and slotting it into a PCIE slot.

    Yes, you could do a remastered draft set of just the best limited cards from those blocks, I'm sure they will do that eventually. I would rather they do that than print more alchemy garbage. Urza's Saga Block would be really interesting if you cut all the chaff in Urza but left all the good...

    It doesn't have to move the markets to be a company ethics violation. You can really tell who here has never worked for a large company with a large number of suppliers and business partners, or who has but never actually read the company handbook. The company has to put that shit in there so...

    They might put that in there just for the memes. I really hope a whole bunch of the most popular planes end up conquered by the Phyrexians and the March of the Machine is merely stopped, rather than defeated. Then they would have to explore new planes and return to some of these 'backwater'...

    Uh, a whole lot of B2B and marketing companies have shit like that in their handbooks. Take this scenario: LTT gets prerelease samples of AMDs next gen of products a few weeks early. Their testing reveals major flaws that cannot be fixed before launch. If any of them sell their AMD stock...

    Not sure it really gets "wrapped up." I doubt all of the Phyrexians are defeated. They say there will be mechanical changes and permanent changes to the multiverse.

    It seems cool but it actually sucks. It's why every shot in the Mandalorian looks so fake. There's just nothing better than real sets and practical effects.

    Yeah Samsung has gotten some bad press lately on the SSDs, probably has something to do with the price drop.

    The problem is that ABU is a fucking awful limited format. People try to draft it and it's no fun. However, in the last MTGA Cube me and this card had many adventures. All you need is to copy or blink it a few times, and then have some card like The Reality Chip or One With The Multiverse...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 40x0 cards - x2 the power consumption, x2 the performance

    The 3080 was an outlier, particularly the FE. It was grossly underpriced which is why I bought one as soon as it was available. It was clearly grossly underpriced because you could never find one. Nvidia "corrected" the situation the shadiest way possible, by cutting producing of 3080s and...

    Well the other thing is that Samsung and LG OSes have both been found to be spying/listening on their own users and Roku has not. Samsung's privacy and security is particularly atrocious but LG is not much better.

    Well most people think the Samsung and LG TV OSes suck dick. The only good TV OSes are the TVs that have Roku or Android built in as their OS.

    I've been talking about this too. I think it means that speculative investors are looking for big holes to light money on fire. I expect speculative tech stocks to also rip upwards, think fintech stuff like SoFI.

    Because it's got powerful, cheap hardware with its own OS that is designed as a TV player first and a marketplace/advertising platform second, rather than all the other ones that have those priorities flipped around.

    Five Guys would be good but they overcook their meat. What's the point of premium never-frozen patties if you're just going to turn them completely grey?

    The last 2 Five Guys I've gone to have sucked compared to the Smashburger around here. The Smashburger in Warwick RI happens to be really good for some inexplicable reason.
