The picture of the physical card in Gavin’s tweet is also in white border, for some reason?

It was uploaded 9 years ago. What sort of AI model was good enough to generate realistic video in 2015? Not to mention it was uploaded by Weird Al’s official YouTube channel.
Oh goddammit, I just got the joke.
They’re changing references to “precombat main phase” and “postcombat main phase” to “first main phase” and “second main phase,” respectively.
This would’ve inadvertently nerfed a few cards that otherwise were able to take advantage of taking extra main phases via extra combat step cards to trigger their effects multiple times in a turn, like Neheb, the Eternal. Now they’re keeping the old wording on that group of cards so it doesn’t result in any functional errata.
The problem is that “keeping the government out of the church’s business” is not the goal of the religious right when it comes to gay marriage. They want theocratic rule and the criminalization of what they see as sin. If both sides agreed on the principle of separation of church and state, most battles over LGBTQ rights would’ve been over long ago.
Separating the legal concept of unions between individuals and the religious institution of marriage would be almost as unpalatable to many evangelicals as fully legal gay marriage, because they’d rather outlaw homosexuality altogether.
Is this implying that a publicly-traded corporation whose software is installed on millions of computers around the world has the same level of agency and responsibility as a preschooler?
I mean, yes, Microsoft bears responsibility for blindly accepting whatever deployment package CrowdStrike gave it and immediately yeeting it out to 100% of customers via Windows Update without any kind of validation or incremental rollout, and should probably be sued for it. That still doesn’t negate the complete and catastrophic failures at every step of the development process on the part of CrowdStrike. It takes a lot of people to fuck up this bad.
“Product Degradation” has been the modus operandi for nearly every online service for like 10-15 years now, but it’s the Gamepass price increase is what got the FTC’s attention? Where was the FTC when the movie/TV streaming service market balkanized itself in an arms race to reinvent cable?
Granted, I doubt the FTC could really do anything meaningful to stop enshittification given that corporations are effectively above the law these days, but it’s been blatantly obvious that this was going to be Gamepass’ strategy from day one. If this actually surprised anyone at the FTC, they really haven’t been paying attention.
Yeah, I guess “black tea” is a bit of a misnomer. It’s probably just simpler to share the terminology with coffee though
Coffee is just too bitter for me unless I overload it with way more cream and sugar than is healthy. At that point all the caffeine and sugar makes me way too jittery. On the other hand, I enjoy drinking tea black, so tea it is.
Hey, that’s [object Object] to you!
Good to see they’re branching out with their business model. Can’t just commit to a single strategy these days. Sometimes it helps to rebase your priorities to avoid creating new issues.
Ok, bad jokes aside, how did it taste?
Is it just an alternate version, or will all copies of this card in Mystery Boosters be white-bordered?
