9·2 years agoI don’t recall feeling overly impressed with content on Mastodon, it’s just social media, but with a small userbase, I’m guessing more tech-saavy. I think what ultimately “wins” in the social media space is wherever “everybody” ends up going. Right now, Bluesky seems to have the momentum going for it as people are flocking to it in droves, but it’s hard to tell how sustainable it is long-term as the hype settles down. Right now everybody is excited and seems like they’re trying to make it a positive, creative, liberal space, but eventually trolls will start invading the space and it’ll be like every other social media site unless it’s somehow structured in a way as to avoid that.
Those are precisely why I like BlueSky. I don’t know if this was normal for twitter or what, but I learned you can search for a hashtag of your kinks (exp. #bigboobs) and you can see porn from people that have posted pics or posts about it. You can also hide other tags from ever showing up in the results, which lets you finetune what you’re looking for. I know the search works relatively the same as twitter with respect to hashtags, but was porn on twitter this whole time?
1·2 years agoA very basic overview of what’s going on, who is involved, their motivations, and npc stats for potential combat, maybe some key events. Otherwise, I don’t like having expectations about what the party may do or where the story may go. I want to figure things out on the fly, I really don’t like pre-plotted campaigns.
8·2 years agoGrew up in CT doing trick or treating and I’ve never even heard of that tradition before, that sounds like alot of work for everyone involved. Even after I came to OH, the idea of calling it “Beggar’s night” still seems wrong.
“Caillou” is what we would call out our kids for being whiny. We used him as an example of how not to act and would call our kids “Caillou” when they started getting out line. Surprisingly effective.
Oh shit, were we supposed to be fucking our Xboxes this whole time? Is that how you get more games? <unziiiips>
152·2 years agoIf people are “upset” about the MCU, it’s because of how much they like it and how they want it to be better than it’s become. And the idea that fans could “offer something better”, given Disney’s team of lawyers and copyright protections, is laughable. Like what, are fans going to film their own MCU movies & shows? The only thing we can offer is snarky comments on the internet, that’s all we’re allowed to do without getting sued, and I’m sure even that will be taken away from us within the next 10 years.
We’ll see how long that lasts for before most end up having to flee to other states. Another 10 years maybe?
16·2 years agoNormal people usually just say “years”.
6·2 years agoI am over 1,000 miles away from my Mom.
What’s the * footnote for?
I had no idea. I just combined it with Lost Mine of Phandelver, since they both take place in the same area, worked relatively well, though I didn’t realize it could’ve been continued with other modules.
2·2 years agoInteresting take on the genre I guess, making it first person. It looks kind of boring and lifeless though as a game, I’d much rather play something like Plate-up vs this. I thought this was going to have more of a Gordon Ramsey spin on it where you talk shit and harass everyone else in the kitchen. “You call this fucking ‘Deviled eggs’? This is shit, you’re shit, and your mother is shit for shitting you out in the first place! Go gargle some donkey balls for a 1/2 hour, then come back and try pretending to be chef, you fucking cunt!”
1·2 years agoAnd almost 50% of that is from drug offenses (according to a few stats I saw).
I think they had the right idea, although they can’t even seem to make up their minds, maybe that’s why they keep beaching themselves.
6·2 years agoCreate a criminal gang to kidnap exclusively rich people, and hold them for ransom.
It was also the name of an insane computer intelligence in a tabletop RPG game called RIFTS by Palladium Books. It originally appeared in RIFTS Sourcebook One from 1991, about a year after the initial release of Archie (the search engine). I don’t know if the writer, Kevin Sembieda, took the name of the AI, A.R.C.H.I.E. Three, from this search engine or if it’s just something he worked up on his own, but I’ve always thought that was kind of funny.

7·2 years agoHe’ll always be Dick Jones to me.

That must be why I have no idea what any of this is about. In the ~20 years I’ve used Steam, I almost never frequent the forums or use guides unless I have a game-stopping problem.
