Deck Help/Show Off Bilbo Birthday

Hello everyone, this is a deck that took heavy inspiration from the Food and Fellowship precon. I believe that it is very resilient and has a heavy amount of boardwipes, protection, and alternate win-cons with a decent amount of politics.

I have been working on this deck for a long time and am excited to get some more eyes on it. The goals for this deck are to compete with the pupstomper decks that are technically not cedh but have an unfair advantage against most decks. So far it has done very well for me and the use of detailed tags has helped me deck build.

Tools of the Trade

What are some lesser known items or tricks in your profession that most people don’t know about?

For me one thing would be Thrift drain cleaner. I was having issues with my drains being clogged and nothing really worked, but looking around on forums and advice from plumbers lead me to Thrift and now my drains work great.

My Linux Journey

Hello everyone, I’ve been using linux on my main system for the past few years and am very happy with the results. From repurposing old family laptops to give them new life, to being able to play triple A games with little to no issues, Linux has turned into my OS of choice.

Through all of the ups and downs, learning about the different distros and desktop environments/ window managers has taught me a lot about what each distro is aiming for and how they want to achieve it.

The purpose of this post is to mainly help encourage others to make the switch. Regardless of use case, I believe that it can be done better with Linux. Don’t be discouraged by the overwhelming amount of distros out there, I can say that I have spend the first year taking Linux more seriously messing with different distros and seeing what works well.

This is a list of distros that I’ve used in chronological order and my thoughts on it:

  • Ubuntu - Used as email and web machine for family members on old computers, worked fine
  • Linux Mint - Looks more like Windows, seems faster than Ubuntu
  • Pop OS - Used for their easy install option for my Nvidia dual gpu laptop which was a pain on anything else, worked okay
  • Manjaro - Was a bit more difficult to get used to, ended up feeling buggier than Linux Mint
  • Endeavouros - Slightly better than Manjaro, still had random bugs and wiki was not very helpful
  • Garuda OS - Similar to last two, just reskinned
  • Opensuse TW - First distro that I truly enjoy, more up to date and easy to manage
  • Opensuse MicroOs - Wanted to see what the immutable distro thing was about, works fine but gets hairy if you want to install non flatpaks or give flatpaks access to system files. I definitely see the use case, just not suited for what I’m doing
  • Debian - Similar to first 3 without extra customization of distro, not as up to date in some areas but the tradeoff is a much more stable less bloated environment. In my opinion its the best for a system that you want to work every time with little to no issues as long as you don’t mind missing cutting edge feature
  • Arch(btw) - My current distro. Spent a whole weekend trying to install it wondering if it was worth all the time. After installation, system works great on AMD hardware and is set up for dual gpu passthrough to play nearly any game with no issues. The wiki is amazing and has helped me solve any issues that I’ve come across.

To conclude, Linux is difficult at first, but after learning more about how things interact and understanding more of what’s happening, the result is extremely stable with so much to learn and discover. I also reccomend taking the dive into more terminal based applications when possible, they have been more efficient and less buggy in my experience, although I understand not wanting to live in the terminal. In the end, it’s your system and you can customize it however you need, take the time and find out what works best for you and you will be very happy with the results.

Simulator Game Burnout

Hello everyone, I’ve seen a lot of my friends play these types of games (mainly rimworld) and saw the complexity of this game and decided to pick it up. While it is very interesting, it’s also very daunting to me.

My guess is that I’m more used to rpg and fps games with a set goal of some sort whereas this game is very open ended with what to do. I am overwhelmed by all of the options in the game and I am wondering if there are others that feel the same. If so, how have you overcome this feeling or learned to enjoy the game?

An idea I have is to just go with the in game tutorials and see what happens without worrying about the outcome, maybe I’m caught up with doing everything optimally when I should just enjoy the experience.

Any ideas are appreciated, thanks!

Favorite Builds

Hello everyone, this is my first post and I'm excited to be a part of this site. My question to you all is, what is your favorite class to play, and if you want to get in detail, what armor, weapons, attachments, etc. you like to use.

My personal favorite right now is engineer because I feel that it is underutilized, I've been looking for a good rifle that is decent against both players and enemy light armor. The weapon that I've found for this is the AUG. While not very strong against personnel and has strong recoil, I do enjoy the versatility of it.

I run a tactical barrel, acog sight with red dot on top, medium armor, and gunfighter grip with the repair tool, rpg heat explosive, and anti vehicle grenades

UPDATE: Changed out acog for strikefire scope, runs alot better and recoil is no issue.
