My uni had one. Sadly I couldn't fit it into my schedule because of overlaps and other requirements.

*With AI review :)

Y'shtola triggers.

Y'shtola's effect resolves.

As part of the resolution, Watcher leaves, then enters again.

Both Watcher abilities go on the stack, you decide the order.

a) The "leaves ability" returns the card that was previously exiled to your hand.

b) The Hideaway ability exiles a new card.

No matter the order of the abilities, the newly exiled card does not return to your hand and if nothing else happens, the end result is the same.

His beliefs are beauty, a desire to play with dolls, two kinds of shyness, servitude, rationality (that one, maybe), something (don't know her) and being a tsundere?

I'm not trying to be obtuse, but I really don't see it.

I kept up with the drama until about a week ago so what I'm saying here is the status from back then. Someone please add any new context if I'm missing any new developments:

From what it appeared, view counts dropped but ad revenue stayed the same. Even before this whole thing, YouTube pays out for ads watched (and clicked). Pay out was not dependent on raw view count for a long time, if ever.

This suspicious behavior of view count dropping but ad revenue staying the same is actually what tipped people off that the issue was adblock related. The fact that channels with a larger focus on a younger audience seeing less of a drop also helped.

Now those view counts dropping could still have an indirect, negative effect on ad revenue, if it, e.g. automatically leads to YouTube recommending their videos less prominently.

Wait until they complain about finding a single seed in something advertised as seedless...

This is also sorta how RAW works (in DnD 5e), to quote the PHB:

Group Checks
When a number of individuals are trying to accomplish something as a group, the DM might ask for a group ability check. In such a situation, the characters who are skilled at a particular task help cover those who aren't.
To make a group ability check, everyone in the group makes the ability check. If at least half the group succeeds, the whole group succeeds. Otherwise, the group fails.

Taking the median roughly has the same effect, it only has a chance to differ if the number of successes and the number of failures are tied.

Another European here to chime in that l also learned to write capital As like that in cursive.

The rs, fs and ts don't look like how we were taught though.

I usually just go with 1.5 because adding half/subtracting a third is way easier to do in my head, and I'm not worried about a ~10% error in casual conversation.

I've been to multiple museums in Japan (which is somewhat relevant because Nintendo is Japanese) that either flat out ban all photography (e.g. Ghibli Museum, Aomori Museum of Modern Art) or have some exhibits that you're not allowed to take pictures of (e.g. Tokyo National Museum). One exhibit I wanted to take a picture of had a "no photography" sticker on it, but it was on the opposite side from where I approached so I didn't see it, causing staff to run up to me when I pulled out my phone to point out the sign.

I've also heard from other tourists that "no photos" seems to be rather common there.

Btw, I'm not at all saying that they're justified at all, just saying that there are indeed places that forbid photos for copyright reasons. In my opinion, no photo would ever match seeing the exhibits in person so it is entirely pointless to ban them. Even professional, official scans of pieces don't come close.

Me and all my friends all call them "Handys".

And to people not familar with English loanwords in German: Yes, the correct German pluralization ends with a "ys" and not as it would be correct in English: "ies". The same is true for "Hobbys" and "Babys", not sure if there are more.

You definitely bring it to the point here. "Can/Could" has two different meanings in this case (and many more generally).

Nobody can legally enter your house without permission. Vampires also additionally have a second restriction, they cannot physically enter your house without permission. A warrant removes the first restriction but not the second. A vampire policeman with a warrant can legally enter, but still not physically.

Most of the time the LLM version isn't the one there. It's "It's not only XXXX, it's YYYY."

Also I noticed I almost wrote exactly the same pattern as the one OP pointed out.

To showcase it, I prompted chatgpt to write me a few paragraphs on the importance of radio astronomy.

I already thought it somehow stopped doing that, but then, in the conclusion, it wrote:

In short, radio astronomy doesn’t just fill in the gaps of our cosmic knowledge—it opens entirely new windows into the universe.

Which follows the same pattern.

No clue. Wolfram Alpha interprets it as (10!!)!, so I assume !!! isn't an established operator, unlike the very unintuitive !!.

Tangetially related: For the people who don't know, I found out recently that x!! isn't the same as (x!)! (repeated factorial), in fact, !! is a LOT less big than repeated factorial.

For example, while 30!! is 4.286 x 1016 (so a number with 17 digits), doing 30! and then ! the result of that, would be a number with an unfathomable 1033 digits.

n!! is its own operator called the "double factorial" and is even smaller than the regular !, because it's the product of only the odd numbers up to n.

Edit: escape characters

Even funnier: This news article is so well written/edited, that the headline doesn't even state that he ignored the flaws; It clearly states that he ignored the sub itself. Truly the pinnacle of journalism.

And also because Animate Dead, the spell the blurb in the meme is from, reads:

Choose a pile of bones or a corpse of a Medium or Small humanoid within range. Your spell imbues the target with a foul mimicry of life, raising it as an undead creature. The target becomes a skeleton if you chose bones or a zombie if you chose a corpse (the DM has the creature's game statistics).

On the second part. That is only half true. Yes, there are LLMs out there that search the internet and summarize and reference some websites they find.

However, it is not rare that they add their own "info" to it, even though it's not in the given source at all. If you use it to get sources and then read those instead, sure. But the output of the LLM itself should still be taken with a HUGE grain of salt and not be relied on at all if it's critical, even if it puts a nice citation.

Yes but even they had some use beyond just 0 mana do nothing.

Doing stuff with Darksteel Ingot, while it can work, was always a meme and never meta.

In addition to what other people already said, without looking at the actual percentages, this could also just be random fluctuation.
Mostly Positive is 70-79%, Mixed is 40-69%. If a game teeters around the 70% mark, it can easily cross the threshold separating the two due to pure chance, in either direction.
