For the past week or so NDRRMC has been spamming me with Mayon warnings even though I am nowhere near Bicol. I am the only one in the house getting these! WTH #philippines

It sounds like you attacked with a token and not with anim? Firebending ascension only doubles a trigger if the trigger comes from the attacking creature

Hello,
I'm trying to run Witcher 3 and load my old saves from 2015 which are still on the PS4. I still have the disc and installed and updated the game. But when I try to load my saves, the game says I don't have a bunch of DLC needed in the save. Looks like it was some free updates like "Neutral Gwent Card Set", "New Quest - Where the Cat and Wolf Play...", etc.
I can see them listed if I go to Playstation Store -> Library -> Purchases -> The Witcher 3 and download them one at a time. But after I download them they are shown in the download list as "waiting to install..." and they never install. I try to click one and choose "Start" (the only other option is "Cancel and Delete"), but when I do that it says "Cannot find the application. Do you want to look in PlayStation Store?" and clicking OK in this dialog just loads the store page for that DLC and it says I have purchased it.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

With #windows' recent patch problems (https://www.windowscentral.com/microsoft/windows-11/windows-11-second-emergency-out-of-band-update-kb5078127-released-address-outlook-bugs), it feels like I was incredibly lucky with my timing in switching to Linux lol.
MS has never been known as a bastion of software quality, but even this nonsense is unexpected given Satya now claims 30% of their code is written by #genAI! (https://www.cnbc.com/2025/04/29/satya-nadella-says-as-much-as-30percent-of-microsoft-code-is-written-by-ai.html)

It is considered an artifact whether or not the ability is activated.
If the ability is not activated it cannot be targetted by spells that target creatues and it cannot be destroyed by effects like "destroy all creatures" because it is not a creature.
If you activate the ability it becomes both an artifact and a creature and can be affected by spells that affect creatures.

Today feels like a good day to try to install #linux dual boot and potentially screw up my windows partition

💬 Reply to 'Draft question' on /r/MagicArena:
There is a general strategy for draft (see guides like https://draftsim.com/mtg-draft-guide/): pick powerful cards first, try to read signals, make sure your deck has a good mana curve, try to find an open lane, etc.
There can also be format-specific quirks depending on the set being drafted. You do need some level of familiarity with the draft environment (what cards are in the sets, what are the archetypes for each color pair etc). There are guides available online for specific sets.

💬 Reply to 'Godsend, how does it work?!' on /r/magicTCG:
You were correct that the attack does nothing after being blocked despite exiling the blocker. Removing a blocker doesnt send the damage through unless your creature has trample.
Also, don't rely on ChatGPT for anything; lol that answer is blatantly incorrect.

After playing #EternalCardGame for something like 8.5 years, I finally completed all the Steam Achievements!
(There are a few more achievements in-game, but honestly that might take another decade or so lol)
Screenshot of the Steam header for Eternal Card Game, showing 176/176 achievements and over 1400 (!!) hours played

At first I didn't recognize Maystorm outside of Peach Momoko's art, but her design looks great here!

Half of 1, rounded down is 0, so you draw 0 cards.

💬 Reply to jikomayo's toot:
@jikomayo i had a weeks-long customer support with over this reverification because my legal name on my id did not match my account name sa maya and i had to do a change of name process which involved submitting a birth certificate which they ridiculously refused to accept at first because i submitted a scanned image and not a photo. It was kind of a waste of time but i had the documents already so i just powered through it lol
