Examples for me include;

Where did you sleep last night? - The Nirvana cover is much better than Leadbelly in my opinion.

The Man Who Sold The World - Midge Ure I find his version with the synths and 80's instrumentation to be the best. But I'm also a Metal Gear fan.

I Took A Pill In Ebiza - Seeb The mike posner version is terrible, but everyone knows that. This version sounds fantastic. I suppose this is the obvious one.

Shred Envy - Pictureplane Rmx I fucking love HEALTH. They're my favorite band. But I did not care for Shred Envy when Conflict DLC came out last year. The Pictureplane remix is fantastic.

And for ones I hate?

I once heard a sped up Chipmunk voiced cover of Biz Markee's Just a Friend. I usually don't hate music except country. But I felt nothing but disdain hearing that. I've also heard really shitty teen punk bands make covers of Smells Like Teen Spirit. Working retail man, if it's not shitty pop songs, it's horrid covers of good ones.

And I'll also list Vibe Cop. The Lil Texas mix in particular. I don't know who Lil Texas is, but for the love of fuck, never let him touch a fucking HEALTH song ever again. An angry sped up version of Vibe Cop with him yelling some mexican word (entarasante?) repeatedly just sounds fucking stupid. And one of the few times I've objectively fucking hated a HEALTH song. Especially sad since Vibe Cop is a decent track on its own.

[[Genji Glove]] I know it gives double strike and extra combat steps but I'm confused by this line of text.

When equipped creature attacks, if it's the first combat phase, untap it. There is an additional combat phase.

Does this just cancel my combat phase from the first one? As in, if I swing at a player, is that just gone now? Or can I hit one player, go to combat 2 and hit another one?

I got hired for online picking, which is pretty basic and my day flies by so I don't mind, but they had me end my day with dispensing for the last two hours today.

While learning it, I had old guy with an american flag license plate (you know the type) who wouldn't give me his code and just started swearing and taking food. Telling me to quote and you assholes can tell your fucking supervisor I ain't doing this tech shit anymore either! Fuck all of you and this fucking bullshit! as if any walmart employees are gonna remember one dude out of the hundreds that patronize a store a day?

I asked the woman training me what to do after dickhead left and she told me to just take the food away and not give it to him. But I'm a bit hesitant to do that since this guy seemed belligerent and stocked everything himself. (It was just two totes) And I didn't feel like getting punched by some 50 year old asshole because he can't work a phone app.

I just bought the newest macbook Air. (couldn't afford a new pro.)

On both my macbook air and my old pro, sometimes the laptop would get hot when I was using it. But I could never figure out why.

It just started getting hot a few minutes ago and all have open is ten tabs on firefox. No other programs, nothing. It used to be that this happened due to me not updating it, usually updating firefox would fix it. But there's not even a new update for me to install right now. All I have open is a couple email tabs, youtube, apple music, and discord. With the exception of youtube nothing's playing.

I don't understand it, what is using so much cpu in just a few tabs?

Edit: I just closed out and exited everything. Seems restarting it fixed the temps. This is really annoying and been a thing for years. Why haven't they fixed this?

I want to be blunt that I'm not looking to play Cyberpunk. I mean like Kotor 2, Gothic 2, maybe and that's a big maybe, Fallout 3. That and emulating old games like PS2 games and Gamecube titles like Windwaker.

Can the Thor play these games? Do I have to worry about overheating? And how do I get these games onto the handheld? (I ask this one because my only computer is a macbook Air so if what I need to transfer won't play nice with MacOS that might be a problem.

Since everyone is talking about the unpopular opinions and all that regurgitated shit again. I figured I'd do another census thread on your music tastes.

List some stuff you like (no shame unless it's some bigoted shit) that isn't on the RYM top 100. No beloved indie darlings or "deep" artists like Radiohead or Swans.

Just some band or artist you love. For whatever reason. Could be nu metal. You could be a Nickleback fan. No shame.

Me? I like the band Deadsy. (Most of you probably don't know who that is, they weren't around very long and were overshadowed by everyone else)

I'm also a fan of the band TISM. My favorite band is HEALTH. And one of my favorite rappers is a guy named Benny Troung that deleted all his mixtapes off Youtube and Bandcamp a couple years ago.

Now list yours.

[[Skittles]] [[Necrogen Communion]]

Skittles is an old dragon with infect. Necrogen gives toxic 2.

How does work with a creature that has infect? Would it be that Skittles gives six poison counters or just the original 4 of it's power?

I've got Spectrum. Came home from work with no internet. Keep getting texts with pushback times. First it was 6. Then 9. Now they're saying midnight. Have to use mobile data on my phone to even do anything. I'm in Madison.

Let's get away from the internet music nerd pile of boredom. Instead of talking about the same 20 artists everyone here likes or pretends to like, let's talk about the ones you like that people here wouldn't approve of. (I love most of those artists too but I'm tired of talking about the same 20 fucking artists/records)

I'll start. I like Hobo Johnson. Barring his two really shit albums, I think his first two records, and Hobo Johnson Drinks, are pretty good. And even the Revenge of Hobo Johnson, which is a terrible record, at least has The Government's Not Great. Which has Hobo screaming at people to buy his soap and wanting to tear out his competitors eyes.

I also grew up listening to Eminem and as a result adore his music. (Mostly. Revival and Kamikaze suck for the most part.)

I'm also a fan of Ozzy which most people don't really talk about these days unless it's Sabbath era. I'm also a big Yngwie Malmsteen fan.

And finally, I really liked Hawaii Part ii from Miracle Musical.

So what about you? What are your you don't belong in the music nerd club artists?

Edit: I also forgot. I love Deadsy. Particularly their debut.

I'm 31 and work part time while going through college.

I always believed that I couldn't invest because I couldn't afford it.

Is it worth bothering if all I can throw is 50 bucks a month?

I used to get them at Dunkins but they stopped carrying and now carry those gross maple ones. And everywhere else I go they cover the fucking thing in chocolate.

Anyone know a place?

[[Lasting Tarfire]]

As an [[Ishai]] player I really love this card from Lorwyn and want more of it. Not specifically burn but just things that happen because a creature gets counters. Card draw, scry, bouncing permanents, just more stuff in general besides 1+/1+ counter support that just makes more counters. Having cards that trigger when counters happen are fun and interesting.

Ishai isn't even a unique case either, we have [[Forgotten Ancient]] and other cards like him.

12 year long magic the gathering player, looking for another card game to get into. My LGS sells SWU but I've never seen it get played.

This game doing well or would you say it's dying? Also is webcam play a thing here or is that uncommon?
