YSK alternatives to imgur for uploading your images
  • Short answer is yes. Long answer is that with text it's much easier to stamp out illegal activity because keyword searches are cheap while semantic searches in images are pretty good but extremely computationally expensive. You can't just scan for illegal activity in images the same way you can nigh instantly scan a body of text for "illegal-site.com".

  • YSK: If you're on Lemmy.World or Sh.itjust.works you should not subscribe to any Beehaw communities
  • The Beehaw instance has defederated from the Lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works instances. Each instance is responsible for sending updates to other instances. Defederation means that no outgoing updates are sent and no incoming updates are honored.

  • self hosted group file sharing?
  • Upside: Easy as pie and can be used by anyone who has used Dropbox/OneDrive/GDrive/whatever

    Downside: everyone gets a copy of every file regardless. Good luck getting rid of old files. Could be fine, though.

  • Is this deck good for beginners? - UG Self Mill (Slogurk, the Overslime)
  • Ya there are definitely seemingly random cards in there. Some of that is the precon effect where there's definitely some minimum amount of synergy but also some big things that don't require the synergy engine to be going.

    I had forgotten about Perennial Behemoth and Conduit of Worlds so I'll have to pick those up!

  • Is this deck good for beginners? - UG Self Mill (Slogurk, the Overslime)
    www.moxfield.com UG Self Mill - Fridge Slime - Commander (Slogurk, the Overslime)

    A deck created using the deck building website, Moxfield.

    UG Self Mill - Fridge Slime - Commander (Slogurk, the Overslime)

    This is one of my first attempts to make a "precon" style deck with an obvious game plan and that especially that doesn't require prior knowledge to play.

    I don't have nearly enough "play an additional land" effects but those are pretty price-gated anyway.

    What do you think?

    EDIT: The fetchlands are proxied.

    Spez talks to NY Times
  • Well there's the problem

    Reddit, which is based in San Francisco, has in recent years tried to turn from a rough-and-tumble internet message board into a full-fledged social media business by adding executives and strengthening its advertising capabilities.

  • What's your favorite alternate launcher?
  • Seconding Smart Launcher. Automatic categorization beats pretty much every other feature I can think of in a launcher.

    I try to treat my devices as commitments as far as spending but disposable as far as usage habits and not having invent my own categories helps me just USE my phone instead of playing with it.

  • Does anyone actually use LibreOffice?
  • I use it for everything that doesn't explicitly need to be shared or anything that is going to be printed. I needed to print a document as a booklet and LibreOffice had that feature and Drive didn't.

    I also keep a baseline suite of apps installed on every machine and that includes LibreOffice.

  • YSK: Installing a bidet attachment to your toilet is super easy and probably cleaner than using toilet paper.
  • Depends on the exact shape and size of your model but for anyone wondering your can get anything from a separate nozzle you have to reach in and aim yourself to an entire toilet replacement.

    I have a unit that fits comfortably under the existing seat with the controls on the side.

    If you're really annoyed by how your current unit fits you might look into the ones that completely replace the seat.

  • Self Hosted ebook server?
  • I use Kavita because calibre-web doesn't have reading progress. It can be a bit weird about what metadata it picks up from scanning your library. I have a lot of problems with books having the wrong metadata until I manually rescan the library.

  • What's your new player on-ramp deck?

    I mostly play Magic with people that I've taught the game and gotten hooked on it. Because of that I always keep the new player experience in mind when building decks and some of them are even built with that as a hard constraint.

    These are the decks I keep that I give to newer or rustier players. They tend to have a bit everything or else commit hard to just the one theme where the theme is obvious.

    Halana and Alena Counters - Make your commander big then they make something else big every turn.

    Sloguurk Self-Mill - mill yourself, make your commander big, draw lands from the graveyard, play them.

    Ramp City Svella - Ramp ramp ramp, cast fatties, profit.

    What's your pet deck?
  • That sounds great. I care about the new player experience as well and it's cool to see such a "what you see is what you get" commander get some love. I need to pick one up, actually.

  • What's your "base" stack of choice?
  • I forgot to mention I also have a samba share running on it and it's sooooooo sloooooow. I might need to reflash the thing just to cover my bases but it's unusable for large or many files.

  • I have long said that [[Svella]] is a "fixed" [[Golos]]. She essentially does the same thing by both ramping and drawing cards but doesn't give you five colors for no reason and serves as both an early and late game mana outlet.

    It's a deck I often give to newer players because the gameplay is pretty well advertised by the commander.

    What do you think of my deck?

    What's your pet deck?

    We all have that deck that just survives even though it isn't the best. For me that's [[Torgaar, Famine Incarnate]]. It's not the best mono black commander in any way but its particular combination of effects to me is emblematic of mono black. It's a bit of a swiss army knife and so I find myself hard pressed to really change anything about the core of the deck.

    What LTR cards are you excited about?

    I'm personally excited to use LTR/LTC commander decks to get people into the game!

    All main story free web fiction from KTK-MOM as EPUB files

    https://i.imgur.com/elQSYKG.jpg

    I finally did it. I went through the entire web fiction archive and turned it into EPUBs (except the NEO manga PDF).

    330 "books", 2.24 GB

    All stories have the proper metadata with title, author(s) and series (set/block/anthology) and include the proper cover image as shown on the MTG Story Archive here: https://magic.wizards.com/en/story

    Link

    This is the link to the Google Drive containing the files. The anthologies and chapters are separated by folder so you can choose your preferred reading experience.

    https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1CKIzFmunFLEfPgBXyHw0exEnNelG-7Ja?usp=sharing

    It was A LOT of work but made much easier using a variety of software tools to automate the most important steps.

    Tools used

    • Tampermonkey to single out the article content on the webpage. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tampermonkey/
    • SingleFileZ to download webpage and assets as a single file. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/singlefilez/
    • Calibre E-Book Management to manage metadata like title, series, covers and also to generate the final folder structure. https://calibre-ebook.com/
    • Bash scripting to rename downloaded .zip.html files to just .zip so Calibre can understand them.
    • Irfanview to create the collages. https://www.irfanview.com/

    Future

    In the future I may write custom software that would let me scrape a database of links and do every step automatically but that would take longer than the one whole day it took me to do this. There's is also no source that I know of that has a complete mostly of all free web fiction with working links. It's a mess on the mothership.

    Enjoy!

    Does anyone play Torgaar? Looking to improve my list

    I like Torgaar as my Mono Black Stuff deck and am looking to trim the fat a bit. The Burglar Rat effects are up for cutting but I'm not sure what direction to go in.

    Painful Quandary seems cool for when I set something to 20 with Torgaar?

    Future

    I know Reddit is...in flux so I figured now is as good a time as any to release a dump like this. I hope it's something people want.

    In the future I may write custom software that would let me scrape a database of links and do every step automatically but that would take longer than the one whole day it took me to do this.

    Enjoy!
