I liked dogpile back in the late 90s because it would aggregate from several sources and wasn’t terribly cluttered comparatively. I think I swapped to Google around 2000ish because it was so minimalist.

I never thought of it like that, but I believe you’re right. He’s not just an exaggerated character for TV, he’s exaggerated because that’s the way the guy telling the story sees things.
I didn’t even know these sorts of mini racks existed. now I’m going to have to get one for all my half sized preamps if they’ll fit. That would solve like half the problems with my studio room and may help bring back some of my spark for making music.
I have no recs. Just want to say I’m so excited to see this. I can probably build an audio patch panel.
Yep, and you can tell what spells they’re using pretty often (obviously adapted for screen) without someone yelling “Your Maximillion’s Earthen Grasp is no match for my Bigby’s Hand!” so it’s fun as a player to see that as well.
The building was on fire and it wasn’t my fault.
If we didn’t both know who our fathers were and if he weren’t a few years older that would absolutely describe us anyway. Went to school not far from each other and I played baseball against his younger brother, then was on the team with his brother for fall ball. Different churches that were part of the same cult. Similar teenage interests. Same social circles just a few years apart. Same branch of the military and same rate (this is where we went from being aware of each other to being friends). Both married and divorced young. Super similar career paths. Both settled in the same large city several hours from our small hometowns (I got here first, for once) and played music with the same people. Super similar adult interests completely separate from our teen interests. It’s fucking freaky. We didn’t even realize it for years until it was pointed out.
He eventually moved out east while I stayed. I’m one of like 3 people he still keeps in contact with in the state.
I can’t play with my friend because we play the same guy.
Both rogue. Both street tough types rather than the shadowy assassin type. Both used to end up taking a couple of levels of either Bard or fighter and ended up with a swashbuckler. No strength, all dex and cha.
We did play together a few times and would swap out which one of us got to play that guy. The other always played a very angry wizard. Just grumpy as shit. Good at a lot of things, but preferred to either fireball or magic missile his way out of situations. Talking to NPCs? I think I’ve got potions brewing. Must be off!
Before we played together we played the same MUD separately. Yep, same character. We ran into each other from time to time.
In high school we played at the same place but a couple of years apart. I started going when he left for the Navy. The guy who DM’ed there said my character reminded me of that guy a lot.
I want to play BG3 with him remotely and both play swashbucklers.

Technology@lemmy.ml•ISPs say their “excellent customer service” is why users don’t switch providers
1·2 years agoWeird how all these companies are universally hated but insist people don’t switch because they’re awesome.

24·2 years agoDidn’t Comcast change their consumer name to Xfinity because they were so universally hated? CenturyLink comes in at the top of a lot of the “most hated” lists as well. They own what used to be Level 3 who, shockingly, were also pretty much hated by everyone who had to use them.

16·2 years agoIs that the MMO where they read Ready Player One and said “Yep, I’m ready to build a mesh peer-to-peer MMO because that means there will be no discernable lag for an infinite number of people, just like in the book”?

15·2 years agoI’m considering stealing your comment and selling it to the highest bidder. How much ether do you think it would take to knock you out?
It’s a Patrón thing. I’d be having more fun than anyone else if I were hammered right now.

5·2 years agoI know it’s RPG memes, but all I can hear in my head is the Mortal Kombat fight music from the old movie (Techno Syndrome).
Fight!

51·2 years agoCan they do that to the crime that has affected the greatest number of people and caused the greatest amount of lost money? Because that’s wage theft and it’s probably the only way I’d be cool with it.

Brave browser on iOS will do it. Orion probably will as well.
Newpipe has been pretty great for me on Android.
