Fantastic! I that’s what it’s all about, making sure everyone has a fun time.
I ran my first game ever last week. I used some TrueTiles for some buildings, and took some other models and modified them to fit the True Tiles philosophy.
The party likewise enjoyed it.
Looks great - did the party enjoy the experience?
Thank you for pointing this out. I never noticed before, but also couldn’t figure out why I’d struggle so much to find what I was looking for when I signed into proton. This explains it.
I recently picked up a Dell latitude 7300 for less than $300usd. It has two sodimm slots (supports 32gb) and up to 1TB SSD. I’m pretty happy with it although it’s a touch older than the x1 carbon gen8. The 7400 is slightly larger with a 14” display and is the same generation otherwise.
I’m running Linux mint on it and haven’t tried your specific distro.
I remember this and thought I was crazy. There was an article linked somewhere on Lemmy last week that addressed this. It seemed like it was a Steve Jobs special - no one knew he was going to promise that. Subsequently, they got tangled up in a patent dispute with someone who owned a very vague communications protocol patent. That outcome has been appealed, from both sides, in courts basically since then.
I saw this two weeks ago. I had a few days where I thought I was going crazy because there was no “log in” link in the header, just a more obnoxious “open the app” button instead. After a few days I did see the log in button again, but I had already accepted the fact that I’d only be allowed to use their mobile app and convinced myself I’d close my account (which I subsequently did two weeks later)
I’m using a pi-hole on my network and I added reddit to the ‘blocked list’ to cut down on myself clicking the links. I should find a way to filter out the links from my search results easily, but this works for now.
I deleted my accounts earlier this week (before the AMA). I decided I could just make a new one in the future if that ever was a thing, and I’d rather not contribute to their line charts of “active users”, and rather would appear on those for “accounts deleted in the last 30 days”.
For me it was a symbolic reminder that I don’t want to lurk there and deleting my account was an action I remember. I hope they follow the direction of Twitter and Instagram by making the platform unusable without an account, further cementing more barriers for me.
Good advice. Mine came from a broken filament at the extruder. When I backed it out, the new end swung around and into the spinning fan. Not my favourite moment.
I am on iOS myself. I actually just use the built in reader. I just saved it to my home screen (PWA). Icon on Home Screen. Opens a browser view. Simple and didn’t need another app.
Thanks! I’m running caddy server on a raspberry pi (same machine as pi-hole). I use it for the reverse proxy mostly. It maps the domain to the specific machine. My pi-hole maps all the domains to the IP of the caddy server. Probably there’s a more efficient way to do this but I haven’t tried yet.
A freak accident put a piece of filament into my hotend cooling fan. Like a hickey stick to a bike wheel. Things went poorly. So until I find the time to replace it, I’m printing nothing.
However if I was operational, I’d be printing a mix of dungeon tiles for a dnd one-shot this summer and Barbie-scale accessories for my kid.
I’m running calibre in a docker container, and have 3-4 libraries setup. I am able to access them all through the built in web service. I know it’s not the same as calibre-web but just want to point this out.
I can’t compare the reading options between the two though, having only tried the one option myself.
Thank you for the review. I’m using the dns config pretty heavily with my pi-hole at the moment, but perhaps I can find another approach to name my home lab services.
I haven’t looked into it yet. What do you like better about it?
(I put my primary pi-hole on a pi because it’s practically the only thing on it - I can reboot it quickly if needed and not have a lengthy downtime on my DNS - the was before I had the second one running)
I’ve already quit the site. Even if they backpedal, it seems unlikely because of any desire or respect for the users and only because of current PR pressure. I’ve experienced it before where some hostile decision is walked back until the uproar dies down, and they try again. And again until the protest fatigue sets in.
I’m don’t trust Reddit and have chosen to move on. Whether they stick around or not matters not to me. I’ve moved on and watch with an eye for curiosity and awareness. But no more emotional investment.
I’m on MacOS for work, Linux Mint for personal computer.
I’ve been on MacOS all around for over a decade. I found that I liked the mental model better than Windows. I had tried linux at the time (Mandrake and Suse) but they didn’t quite feel like something I could use daily, when friends were on MSN Messenger for comms.
The company uses MacBooks for developers and I enjoy that experience.
For personal, I couldn’t justify the cost of a Mac for the limited amount I’m currently using a personal computer. A year ago I resurrected a computer from a junk drawer and put Mint in it. It’s been a great experience, but the hardware has aged and some things were tricky (like typing, and hearing audio). So I bought a 3-4yo refurb Dell business machine and popped Mint on it. Am happy.
Thanks for sharing. I have dropped off on bullet journaling for personal stuff but I have been using a modified version for my work life for a year now. I use a weekly spread as the primary tool. Each morning I review my work calendar and transcribe the currently scheduled appointments into a space for the day. This helps me reflect on how much free time I will have to get stuff done. Then I migrate forward the tasks I’ll try to accomplish, mixed with any new tasks. Finally, I use a full page per meeting. I can record who came, and any action items that have fallen on me. We use outlook, asana, and a variety of other tools but I just find pen-and-paper easier to review. I think mostly because it breaks up my computer focus ever so slightly.
I personally like the True Tiles system. They print fast and don’t obstruct as much of the game. However they are also less immersive/ impressive.
ShipWorks (by Dragon Workshop) if you want to print some epic ships.
Yasashii minis if you want to punish your FDM printer (or reward your resin).
Brite Minis for FDM friendly minis.
