It’s chaotic evil. But many make the same mistake you do. Evil is not defined by cruelty.

I just thought of a better word for their ideology: techno-feudalism. They are not optimist or humanist, they crave for power and controle.

What I hate the most is that they are literally stealing science, technology and progress to enforce their techno-feudalism.

That’s unfortunate. I consider myself a technooptimist, but I am anything but a believer of liberalism or capitalism.

What I mean is that repeatability can be achieved in other, simpler ways. Like a package for example.

I feel like as technologies, ansible and docker have been spread beyond their relevant scope of usefulness. But maybe that’s me.

I feel like ansible is a complex way of doing simple things.

Why is infra as a code so sought after? I feel like this is installation scripts and config like bare bones, but you need another layer to make it work on top. What am I missing?

In fact you only run the die after a long rest, not for each attack, so not so many dice roll actually? You just need to write the number somewhere.

That is not true. You are ignoring half the written rules for this to work.

It doesn’t. The rules are specifically different at different scales. Both for distances and times. For combat and out of combat.

That’s why there is survival and medicine. And a roll has much more variation than the +2 or 3 that you are considering here.

And as always, if there are no chances or consequences for failure, don’t roll. That’s in the dmg.

Are they dead or simply playing dead? :p

Most soldiers in war are killed from artillery, and especially shrapnel from artillery and other explosives. The armor they wear protects them from that.

Let’s say you have 20AC vs this monster +13. The monster hit on 7+. So you have 30% to avoid a hit. This means on average you’ll avoid 1 or 2 out of the 5 attacks of the big baddy. Which can definitely save your life!

Well, if you omit batteries then you are mostly true, although with covid there was a huge shortage of electronic components that would affect solar a lot, at least depending on where you live. Batteries is a big unknown now, because with all the demand for it, we simply can’t build enough batteries to feed all the grids with it.

Gas skyrocketed in Europe. Oil is going yo-yo. How does this have no impact on the price?

They are aren’t. This is anti nuclear propaganda. It’s a waste of screen place. The data is outdated and completely manipulated.

This chart is worthless, so it doesn’t show anything. Like 2 data points for this? Seriously? And there was a pandemic and a war since then…

The data stops in 2019. It’s completely outdated. The world is in chaos since covid. But anti nuke propagandists don’t care much about these “details”.

Data stops in 2019. It’s completely outdated. Good try.

Well, I think the current distribution is far better. A mad mage who studied forbidden magic is a wizard, like all mages who study. A “mage who made a pact with an entity to get power or magic”, by definition, did not studied. A mage who studied and also made a pact can have both classes.

There is the pact of the tome that emphasise the idea that you can get a magical tome to get spells. You didn’t wrote those spells. You still didn’t learn this magic. What intelligence is there to this craft?
