The backwards shit that nerds have been moving past should not be replicated because you're aggrieved about progress leaving you behind, the warlord games thing too, stuff that should have died in the 90s. I'm glad my lgs years were spent with people who weren't like that or kept their mouth shut

It was an old mtg card, same with jihad that got banned with a few other offensive older cards like invoke prejudice which had a kkk hooded figure. Assholes got upset that these barely used cards weren't legal anymore. Sorcery including them means they are leaning into the asshole old nerd crowd

Damn, you articulated what are basically my feelings so well. I've always loved how evocative the AW driver's sex move is, on a miss you've gotta go, -1 until you prove they don't own you. It's such an archetype of guy but not one I'd think to make myself and isn't that what rules are for?

It definitely straddles the line into mushier story gamesy stuff (positive) without losing the things I find interesting about dungeon crawling. I definitely could run a monster of the week game through the flux space lens and the only real difference is how much I rely on dice for encounter choice

Yeah! A local group does these every once in a while, bunch of people hanging out across a few rooms in an apartment doing like 6 games over the whole day, people coming and going, super fun! They've also done em at the beach and stuff!

I don't think it's large language models that are useful for medical stuff but machine learning in general can be very helpful for analysis, especially computer vision. Like you can feed a computer tons of biopsy data and it can flag potential tumors and stuff that would take a human ages to do

I feel like people from the southeast are generally the least equipped to handle crazy humidity, they drive from air conditioned building to air conditioned building in an air conditioned car. If you don't work outside you're completely insulated from the environment and have no tolerance for it

It really doesn't help that the way math is taught is awful, it's for expressing ideas and not for doing little puzzles on a timer to decide your future

The chance of one pair having the same birthday is 1/365 but birthday paradox looks at every single pair in the room looking for ANY that match, the chance of 2 d6 matching is 1/6 but if you roll 4 dice the chance of there being any matching is pretty high

Hexkit is wonderful, right until it isn't, push it a little and it falls over. For a while I had to reimport stuff every time I opened it so I moved all my tile sets so they were easier to get to😅

That's essentially a completely different type of program and the fact that they're both "AI" (neither are) muddies the waters, propping up the commercial llms and generative ai and denigrating the actually useful applications of machine learning

Against the wicked city had a good post about running the ruined outskirts of a city as a hexcrawl introducing all the elements and factions that the central functioning city has and switching out of crawl mode when there. Lets you drip feed info. Yoon-Suin also has the city bleed into wild hexcrawl

Tavern style is better and there's some great pizza places in the city but fuck I miss walking down the block and getting a good to great slice from just any random place

The fact that theres a market for strymon patches is baffling to me. Paying more for a preset for your 500 dollar reverb to sound more like every other church band is fucking wild

Every time someone says partner, the little guy from this instantly appears in my head. Occasionally I do a little finger gun pew to myself and giggle a little and then realize I've stopped listening to the conversation and have to catch up
