Why oh why did you change from miles to km? :(
Why oh why did you change from miles to km? :(
Since we have all decided to be pedantic, ‘falling’ is not the past tense of ‘fall’.
Its like a participle or gerund or some shit that means it is happening now. edit either I misread or original message was edited. Regardless others have thoroughly beaten me at being pedantic.
Can someone explain like I’m 5 searXNG?
Like, I vaguely understand the terms everyone uses to explain it but I don’t really understand what it does or how it does it. I’ve used a public instance of it that the maintainers of my Linux distro provide and is set as default search on a fresh install. The results weren’t terrible but did take some time to load, which is the main reason I tend to use other engines.
If I self host it do I get better performance? What about results? Are they different on different instances?
Npc with a sob story, but they’re shy so it takes some conversation (time to think and roll with what the players think might be going on) before they will reveal it.
My best guess for the hopeful outcome is the ai starts tacking on the license magic words at the end of things it says… But ultimately it feels like a digital version of sovereign citizens to me.
I dunno man, can’t know unless you try the flags. Might work. It worked for that guy.
And that wasn’t enough to force you to try Linux again? Does Billy Gates have to sodomize your dog, or where is the line? lol
Have you tried those flags tho?
A combination of Lutris, Bottles, and Proton GE has covered me so far. I find Lutris more gaming focused, and I have used Bottles a lot for little windows programs that aren’t really games (as an example, some stuff I have for making TTRPG maps and tokens and stuff that I could probably find alternatives to, but they work fine in Bottles so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
).
Gaming on Linux is really not as bad as all that unless you play a lot of games with invasive anti-cheat; which honestly, even if you never try Linux and stick to windows, I’d recommend avoiding or at least having a separate windows install for. I’m not a fan of having to install a rootkit on my computer that constantly monitors everything I do just to prove to some mega-corp I’m an honest player (especially considering how poorly even those work to stop cheaters).
I’d highly recommend anyone upset with microsoft to at least setup dual boot with one of the popular gaming specific Linux distos and trying it out. Even if you did a few years ago, it has really come a long way in the last few years.
I just came up with a possibly acceptable middle ground of my own… Puzzle is intended for the players to solve, but if characters have an appropriate high mental stat or characters that roll well on an appropriate skill check would get varying degrees of hints or clues. Maybe? I feel like I’d have to try it to see if I actually like it or not. It feels like a sweet spot compromise, but still requires meta-game problem solving, but I feel like that is unavoidable - you can’t actually think with your characters brain, only your own. At least with current technology, lol.
That’s kinda dumb… It leads into why I don’t really like “puzzles” in the traditional sense in TTRPGs… Either it is simply a DC you have to beat in a roll, and that is it, or it requires the player (not the character) to be good at solving puzzles. Otherwise, it isn’t a puzzle, it is just an atypical “lock” requiring an atypical “key” reminiscent of old point-and-click adventure games where you just can’t proceed until you find the McGuffin (some random detail or piece of information that is hidden away that in turn “solves” the puzzle that you could not have hoped to solve without it).
I’d love to be proven wrong, but I definitely haven’t seen it done well.
That is only listed in 5e as an optional rule, by default a square is a square and is 5ft regardless of diagonal or not.
What’s wild is I have had a 1TB one of these running for like 4 or 5 years now without issues, and I’ve had 2 nice Samsung’s (a 970 and 980) die in that time frame. I’ve basically come to the conclusion that modern consumer storage can’t be trusted or relied on in general. Robust back-up solutions of anything I’m worried about losing, preferably to a cloud service (or 2)…
I have tried out onshape and it is a pretty functional fusion replacement, but I really don’t like the idea that the models I make can be used (or even just sold) by others commercially. I’d be okay with it if the free version just gave all models made with it an open license that barred commercial use entirely, but banned for me and open for sale by others is pretty dirty imo.
I noticed a similar problem importing step files… I no longer had circles, I had nonagons… I would love to delete my windows vm that only exists for fusion 360.
I was thinking use the rule system and home brew the story and setting. I rarely use the written setting for a game system, I don’t want to have to become an encyclopedia of someone else’s fictional universe, lol.
Running starfinder now, and I love it… But it is a lot more fantasy sci-fi than the IPs OP mentioned. It’s a great “dnd but in space” setting, but it is mostly based on og Pathfinder so it’s quite a crunchy system and ship battles can be a slog and kinda unbalanced from a “what each player gets to do” perspective. Really sucks to be the engineer or science officer as far as excitement goes compared to the pilot or a gunner.
We’ve had good luck with atypical ship encounters though, like trying to chase down and board a ship before they escape or some people are on the enemy ship during the fight. Having to be fast and loose with the rules about ship roles though when you’ve only got 2 or 3 people on the ship. It feels like it is really designed to have a minimum of 5 people strictly RAW. We’ve also played with concepts from other systems, like allowing the Bard equivalent to use influencing spells on enemy ship crew despite being wildly out of range (but not being able to use ship actions in the same turn).
I’m not hating on km… I’m hating on listing one distance in miles then the next one in km. I don’t care which system they used, I care that the two numbers we are supposed to compare are in different units. :(
