Threw my back out. Bit delayed on posting at the moment. Sorry <3

  • I did that. It was with Terminator vision. It’s still kind of clicks into a certain extent, but considering I haven’t really actively focused on it in a very long time, that’s not a surprise. If I try, it comes back pretty easily. That being said, it’s not really useful. Like I’m not seeing actual calculations or useful data. But it is a weird thing that you can kind of trick your brain into seeing it if you imagine it for so long.

    Probably why I think the idea of the HUD in this show is so fucking stupid. Like the only thing I’m seeing is a red overlay with some random crosshairs and a bunch of random strings of digits. About as useful as shit on Velcro.

    You might say the knight is hulking and looming ominously, but does that mean 20 AC, 50 HP, one attack at +6 for 1d8+4… Or does that mean 24 AC, 500 HP, three attacks at 1d8+8 (slashing) +1d4 (negative energy)? Could be either! The range of possibilities is largely unbound and arbitrary.

    That’s more of a DM/GM description issue than a gaming issue. Like nothing about what you said is specific to DnD, it’s just how the person is going to describe the person. But even then I prefer it that way. I don’t know what the situation is going to be like until I try to fuck with that. Also, you could just ask to size him up. Insight checks exist, perception checks exist, etc. But I’m kinda pro-having the enemies vague. I loathe video games where I see a number above an enemies head and know whether or not I can defeat them. I’m here to roleplay, not be told immediately whether or not I can take the dude.










  • Same. I loathe Linux. I’ve been trying to use it since I was 19, periodically installing one distro or another, and I hate it. I absolutely hate it. I’m not saying it is bad or anything but I do not have the patience to fight with an OS over every tiny thing or having to look up a guide for every installation or having to double check what will work and won’t because you’re going to need a container.

    Linux, I’m sure, is great but it’s also one of the least user friendly operating systems out there, regardless of Distro. I keep trying to use Linux Mint and it keeps driving me up the fucking wall. Either Linux supports nothing without a battle or nothing supports Linux without a battle and I’m not remotely interested in fighting with my PC to do something simple. The second that that shit gets sorted is the second I’ll be fine.


  • Kind of funny coming from the admin of an instance that goes around and bans people for no reason. Even funnier when yoy and VS tried to contact the admins of different websites to get me banned over there because you did not like me suggesting that the moderators and admins of your instance were abusive. Hell even other Lemmy admins can back that up.

    Corgana is SysAdmin on ST.W and, from what I recall, the owner of the domain. Keep that in mind when you see Corgi patting himself on the back.

    You’re the reason people leave your instance dude. This meme is hilariously tone deaf.
