So mines a weird hodge-podge of a HP Proliant (running my modded Minecraft server and Plex) under a bistro table that I use as a standup desk. A HP Thinclient that I run lighter services like my Pi-Hole and Homebridge. and a laptop

"Thou shalt not taketh sponsorships from NordVPN"

And the meatbus goes "Good luck! Have fun!"

I did it! Canceled Premium!

I thought maybe to change it to a sub to Nebula or something… but then I realized it’d be like trading heavy cigarette smoking for heavy vape smoking.

Now begins the « ween the brain off overstimulation » phase 😅

I can’t believe we still can’t moderate chat in a public webinar…. « Hey the guy who wrote ‘FUCK’ 20 times? Yeah you can kick him out, but make sure to keep these messages visible for all posterity »

Can’t send private messages to outsiders also. Who could EVER need this in a public event anyway?

And make sure you can’t let people join the breakout room of their choice. Take the time to individually assign them one by one before the meeting! Fun!!

Hey at least we can play Backgammon in a meeting, so there’s that right?

If it’s true and I get ads on my Premium (which.. to be fair I’m not paying full price anyway 😅), it may be the last push I needed to finally start reading books again..

I don’t remember her saying "I’m the most pro-union presidential candidate in the history of the planet!"

But she did have good relations with most union leaders, yes 🤣

Her biggest mistake was being honest. She didn’t lie on difficult issues by saying she’d fix it in 24 hours, she didn’t tell one thing to a group and the direct contradiction to another group, she didn’t scapegoat a minority to rile up the population.

I’ve read the articles, and their demands are reasonable: First, they are arguing Canadian citizens in Gaza have been left to fend for themselves to escape and the Canadian government have imposed no restrictions on Canadian citizens to take part in the Israeli assaults.

Second, they argue the Canadian government is failing its duty to honor the 1948 genocide convention. The good news from this is that it might force the government to explain why what’s happening in Gaza cannot be considered a genocide, so we will see their true colors, documented for all posterity…. Or, they will have to admit it is indeed genocide, and measured have to be taken.

All in all, I guess the article title is sensationalist but the essence of the lawsuit is warranted.

That editing was just 😚👌 Slava ukraini!

I mean… there can’t be an ongoing genocide if they are all dead taps temple

(God I hate this planet now…)

Just to add to that answer, I’d the biggest difference is the grim powerlessness. The players can barely delay the inevitable and most will probably die in the process.

There are way more skills aimed at investigations, and the goal are often more aimed towards a McGuffin that solves the issues, or sometimes the goal is simply to just be able to leave in one piece and hope someone else cleans the mess 😅. (There’s actually a fan story adapted into a RPG called « Delta Green » where you play a secret military tasked with dealing with mythos threats)

As D&D is the epic hero’s journey where Gandalf saves everyone at the last minute, CoC is the horror thriller where the protagonist dies, only a rando side character survives and walks off screen as the dead monster opens its eyes again just before cutting to black.
