Maybe it’s because I’m European but I literally don’t see anything about China at all except when I see .ml posts (and I guess tankiejerk? again reacting to things).

Yeah, if you think of “filling up” as the definition it’s pretty easy

I’d love a useful heads up display with things like navigation, search (as in, “where the fuck did I leave my keys, they should be in my field of view”, not “what’s the capital of italy”), and something like a dashcam, where you can retroactively playback the last X minutes if something happened, but otherwise it gets deleted automatically.

And nothing gets off the device without my consent of course.

Today is the first day I regret having three monitors

From your username I assume this is yours?

Good writeup, though some typos (especially in pascal’s wager part, you missed a “not” somewhere that ruins the idea) (and heliocentric, not hellocentric, though probably fine for most people)

I’ll be sharing this with people, thanks!

But that’s my point, 5e is already not a rigid system.

What do you mean official statblock? As in it’s a statblock from the dmg/mm? Then they can still just tack in things they want/need (as can you, as dm).

I agree they probably could (and should) have better specified that this diverges from the stat block, but the point of the module is to try and cater to everyone, including rewarding players that took points in perception here apparently.

I think it’s got its pros and cons, I’m very fond of seeing all the rules and following them, even as a dm, so 3e (and Pathfinder) were always more my thing, but having played 5e nowadays (and other, even more “you have a 5 damage power, flavour it however you like” like mutants & masterminds) I kind of like the dm style of “know your players, make exceptions where it would increase enjoyment and/or add an interesting challenge without breaking the future fun of the game” too.

Arguably that’s the difference between DM and GM. A DM is just running a dungeon. A GM is running the whole game, rules and all.

But the shaman’s no player character so the rules don’t apply to him.

In 3e pretty much every npc was fully buildable from existing classes, in 5e they just stopped doing that. If the module says he can do sneaky cure wounds, he can do sneaky cure wounds.

Yes, and it cools stuff to cooler than the outside air, right?

The same way a fridge works

99% sure it would just work, the same way as with boys.

Calvin, age 5, says he’s intimately familiar with the attic since he stood on the first step of the ladder to the attic 3 times.

Yeah, the “at least” is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline.

Though I bet it’s hard to prove so they might not be able to even glimpse a fraction of what really happens.

… I may have some undiagnosed adhd and this specifically is the main thing I relate to

Nice, thanks for the links! I do think it’s hard to measure as you inherently have no good metrics for how often something is pirated

Tldw: piracy is a service problem. If you have a product that’s not available in your local language, but the pirates localise it days after release instead of months, and at a much better quality too (and without all the crappy drm that forces always online etc), that’s a game developer/distributor/… problem, not a piracy problem.

I also recall (not in this vid though) gaben (or maybe someone else?) saying something about piracy actually increasing sales of games, as a form of demo or try before you buy (for good games anyway lol). I know I’ve done that, pirate a game when I was a poor student (no sales money lost because otherwise I just wouldn’t have bought it) and then bought it on steam years later and never played it there, just because I believe the devs deserve it.

I have no clue what Pirate Software is (from context it could be a game developer?), but it sounds like they already hint at an alternative solution in the name.

A galaxy extinguisher sounds scary…

Corporations only allowed to rent AND rent being taxed reasonably AND rent being legally bound to be proportional to value would solve some problems 🤔 Not sure how many new problems this would create, especially in transition periods and with foreign countries not all doing the same.

Counting properties is difficult for bigger lots though. Is that a big shed or an extra house at the other end of your farm? Or maybe that doesn’t really matter unless you rent it out.

Thanks! That helps a lot already!

I’m playing around a bit, carefully stripped some old wires I had lying around from old lamp fittings and pinched those to a raspberry pi camera I bought earlier.

Edit: it’s this one https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/RPi_IR-CUT_Camera but I want to angle the LEDs somewhere else, I tried it quickly and with one LED pointed upwards it works well enough.
