My current wizard character didn't take counterspell until the dm sent a wizard at us with it first. He had no one to blame but himself.

Wonder if that will end up helping in the longer term.

That last bit is the important thing. If someone tells you pronouns, use them. If someone tells you they prefer "they/them" and you keep using he or she on purpose, you are disrespecting them.

We all make mistakes sometimes and most people I've met who use alternative pronouns that may conflict with their socially expected appearance don't mind correcting someone a few times or will brush it off a few times, but more than that, especially if you see and interact with this person regularly, you become an asshole.

Yes, but no. My company is working in a proprietary engine, so there is almost no one we can hire with that engine experience, but we still want people who became familiar and strong with other engines because they can do it again with ours.

Don't be too discouraged by this, but start learning your next engine.

They claim to be a public benefit corporation, so while they obviously need to get income to run servers and fund development, their objective as a company isn't just to maximize shareholder value.

I don't know where/how to find their actual foundation documents to see what those actually say for their balance of profit vs mission.

In every run I've ever done my initial base at some point is just gone, slowly replaced over time.

We estimate the age of some stars to be older than the estimated age of the universe. JWST observations have also made it "worse". https://youtu.be/hps-HfpL1vc?si=H9tdTD3DJYLkalvx

There are beneficial bacteriophages for humans and other animals and plants.

You probably do buy Nestle under different names, they own a lot of stuff

Just weird it in a way that is more capitalist lingo: " The govt will acquire a majority controlling stake and take the company private under it's direct control"

Even discounting the writing quality, we already have AI responses that reference AI hallucinations posted online as fact.

Are there no free adventures for it online? Surely someone has released something in the system for free?

But he just gave them all the power. He needs them. They can demand higher wages, better conditions, etc.

Kinda neat to create a way to experience an older expansion that many newer players missed, outside of the Classic method.

Shane it is time limited and not a permanent thing, though.

I get the idea, but I don't see how that works effectively in practice. There are a lot of cards that are not good on their own, and only good in the context of a combo. Does having one of those cards in your deck make it better? No, it probably makes it worse. You need the entire combo for one of those cards to matter.

It works for those 1 off value piece cards like Dockside, Tomb, Sol Ring, etc. But multi card combos is where I think it will fail(or at least over score a deck that doesn't include a full combo).

It being one of the things they want "uncensored" is revealing.

I think the switch to sing large sets instead of blocks plays a lot into the failure to really dive into the stories of the planes. Can't do something like the Tarkir block with a single set and not a series of three that are narratively connected and sequential.

Doesn't just affect temperature, though. Precipitation can change a lot and make an area less viable for native insects.

"The vast majority" really depends on the social space/context you are in. Middle of Kansas or Alabama? Yeah. Portland or Seattle or another place like that? Might be a majority or might not be, depends on the part of town probably.
