- Untitled April 23, 2024 5:47 pmspeaking about weird people trying to chat me up on discord, I just remembered that one guy who went around German-speaking AIM chatting up people, presenting an elaborate spiel that ended with him telling people how he liked to kick puppies to death. he seemed irritated when he got me on my secondary account and I was interrupting his story all the time. but still, this seemed to be his hobby, he would sit there and chat up people and try to disgust them as much as possible.
- Untitled April 23, 2024 3:37 pmAfter playing around with Rocky Linux 9 and 8 I decided to just go back to Debian for my rpi server. It's really the most convenient in a lot of ways.
- Untitled April 23, 2024 2:08 pmSigh. Someone came to the #osr #ttrpg discord I hang out on and asked if he could play a living armor warlock with a shotgun in my game. And now I wonder if this is someone trying to play me for a fool or if he really doesn't know what sort of game we are playing.On the one hand he claims he doesn't have much experience, on the other his chosen character build is something very specifically 5e and really not compatible with my game.
- Untitled April 23, 2024 10:41 amWent to get some fast food with my colleagues, noticed some interesting patterns at Burger King:1. Plant-based burgers are now in the main menu and you can customize other burgers with plant patties.2. Most offers at the soda-fountain are zero sugar now. In fact from what I saw out of 7 offers only two contained sugar (normal Pepsi and ice tea). Not sure what it means, but I generally like the way it goes to a less meat, less sugar kind of diet.#fastfood

- Untitled April 22, 2024 4:51 pmThank God it's Friday. This week has been long enough.Wait a moment...
- Untitled April 22, 2024 4:02 pmso from what I just heard the early summer and subsequent frost in Poland might lead to growers losing up to 80% of fruits in their orchards.Poland is the biggest apple producer in Europe.So if you had "apples" as the answer to "which commonly accessible good will have a price explosion this year?", step up and collect your price.
- Untitled April 22, 2024 11:18 amA Monday Miscellany of Links pt. XVIIA Monday Miscellany of Links pt. XVII I haven't done a link post for a while, so this one is a bit bigger than usual. Maybe I should imply in the title that it's some monthly thing instead of weekly. On the other hand I might just miss a self-set monthly deadline as well.

(I also post as kyonshi on text #usenet)
- Untitled April 20, 2024 9:32 pmit was nice having actual people to play with though. It just is much more relaxing doing it on a table than on a call.also it was nice talking to other adults without kids shrieking in the background.
- Untitled April 20, 2024 9:18 pmnow that run went south badly. at one point two of our team got stuck in separate windows (trying to get clear of a grenade). luckily my character was dislodged by the explosion. and then ended unconscious and bleeding out two levels down. he survived, but likely will not be able to find work in Seattle again. so... Viva Las Vegas?#shadowrun #ttrpg
- Untitled April 20, 2024 1:45 pmtonight might actually be an in-person #Shadowrun game, as it happens that our group is in the same city for once. that's so... weird.
- Untitled April 20, 2024 10:51 amI was making burgers for lunch and randomly remembered the time when I studied in #Ireland and saw burgers advertised as the healthy option in the college canteen. and they weren't lying. not because the burger was so healthy, but it least contained more vegetables than their other stuff. in hindsight the stay there taught me cooking properly, because I couldn't afford actually edible food otherwise.

- Untitled April 19, 2024 12:04 pmhey #pixelfed users, how are you using your portfolio, if at all. I just know it's there, but I don't do anything with it yet.

One response to “[Circumflex] Social Status as a new ability”
[…] Hmm.But anyway, here a short description:I used my Harnic game system as the base, the one I was talking about lately. Which means it is Labyrinth Lord at it’s core, with an extended LotFP skill […]
