[QUOTE=wingless;50966567]Linus Torvalds. Original creator of Linux, and currently manager of the project. Seemingly has a personal goal to piss off or offend everyone ever. Tends to be a loud dick.[/QUOTE]
I don't know why but your description's pacing made me think of a trading card.

Make it happen
So I bought a new Samsung Galaxy S7 last week. I just received it but the box seems to have been opened :/
Nothing is missing, but the box seal has been resealed twice. Once with an additional original sticker from Samsung and then an additional random white sticker on top of that. I can also see the phone has a few fingerprints on it.
Think I will just RMA this to be safe, but damn I was really looking forward to a new phone.
I it really tempting to turn it on, just to see if there is anything on it.

I'll fire up Magic Set Editor.
Besides the blatantly obvious (Linus, Stallman, Gates, Ballmer, Jobs, Wozniak), who should I toss in?

Since these are sipwicket cards, LTT Linus would probably be appropriate. Probably Louis Rossmann too.

Maybe the site will be up in a few days.
[QUOTE=Zephyrs;50962069]IGPUs have been capable of handling multiple monitors for years, particularly if you aren't doing much of anything 3D. Some motherboards get bitchy with dual monitor if they support it, and few support triple monitors, but the IGPU won't care.
If there's any doubt about it, you can honestly craigslist an old GPU, or whatever your regional equivalent to craigslist is.[/QUOTE]
Buying used is a great idea if it doesn't work, I won't include a gpu in the order then.

Brt, if you still have a copy of title hanging around (you should).
Also I'm a huge Grace Hopper fan, and will throw her name into the hat anywhere I can.

Kind of shameful I forgot Hopper and Turing. I blame the fact that it's Monday.
Dennis Ritchie?
Ada Lovelace?
Al Gore?

Just do some cursory research on your mobo before ordering. It really shouldn't be a problem with 2 monitors, provided you don't mind doing one over DVI and one over HDMI.

Linus is definitely a 7/4 green MtG card, with an ability where you can tap X mana to add +X/+X for this turn.

Did you buy the phone SIM free or from a mobile network? There might also be the chance that QC at Samsung inspected the phone before it left the factory. Additionally, it being a Samsung wouldn't it inform you in some way if the software has been tampered with?

What are you two smoking? Linus is clearly red/blue with a rummaging or looting ability. I've got him at "T: Scry 1, then each player discards a card, then draws a card." right now - Linux is open-source, so everyone benefits a bit, but he's kind of an asshole so it benefits you more than anyone else.
Edit:
Plus green doesn't get self-pump that way. Green gets massive self-pump (Stonewood Invoker: 7G for +5/+5), once-per-turn pump (Basking Rootwalla: 1G for +2/+2, once per turn), and of course pump spells (Giant Growth), but a variable pump effect is usually red.
i understood some words
i once met an autistic dog that was called linus
I can usually keep up with the level of nerdiness in sipwicket but you completely lose me when talking about TCG. It's elder god nerd-tier.

It really is like a whole separate language. I'm pretty sure it's harder to learn than some real languages.

Nominating that for next thread title.
