Considering how you are behaving here I find it extremely unlikely that you are widely regarded as pleasant. Really. Go read your post again, where you escalated all the way to “go fuck yourself”.

Furthermore, your post is foolish.

First, an ad hoc change of rules to benefit the players is fudging. You should talk about it with your table because groups are different, but many people feel strongly about it.

Second of all, in my post I suggested that if players like being able to interrupt big spells, they could either add a house rule to cover that, or change to a system that does it out of the box. And you’re blowing up over that?

Third of all, not every table is the same. Some tables would enjoy the wreckage of “wow we really shouldn’t have bunched up like that. Well, I think I’m going to roll a rogue next because evasion sounds nice”.

Your post is garbage. You’re mad at some imaginary “evil GM” story in your head.

You’re a presumptuous and unpleasant little person, aren’t you?

I don’t think that kind of fudging makes for good DND. You could maybe remind the players that wizards cast spells earlier in the scene. But if you want something like that play a different system, or add a consistent house rule that’s written down. Some games let you interrupt spell casters.

Huge anti-fan of ad hoc stuff in otherwise rules driven games.

Also include horrific externalized costs from cars.

I think the floor isn’t “intern”. I think the floor is “middle schooler”.

Meanwhile, every job I’m looking at is saying “must be enthusiastic about AI” 😭

This is a good point. He’s not a bad guy. He’s just not very technical, and sometimes that’s frustrating.

The biggest ones I’ve seen are 1.2GB.

Why this company uses gigabyte CSVs is a separate problem.

(Also sometimes they want to compare a CSV to what’s in a database, which the script can also do but I didn’t mention in the post)

One time at work I was tasked with writing a python script to compare two data sources. Like, you give it two CSVs and a primary key, and it tells you what data is in one but not the other, or mismatched, and so on. This worked fine and was in git, so anyone can use it.

My boss then asks if I can “put it on a website so anyone can use it”.

This team has never done web development. Nothing for that is set up. Like, I could spin up a quick Django app or similar, but there’s a lot of stuff to do and potentially fuck up.

I said “that sounds like a lot of research and ongoing maintenance costs. I think it’d be better to just check out and run the script”

Luckily for me he said “oh, okay”

Some are DRM free and can be backed up at your leisure. I’m pretty sure that’s up to the developer to implement or not.

It would be neat if steam let you sell a game back, but I’m not sure how to square that with “you have a drm free copy that’s trivial to copy”

Probably. They could have used their wealth for anything but they’re like dragons. Do you mourn for dragons in stories of knights slaying them?

It’s just emotional chum for the right wing to stay frothy at the out-group. Even though many of them would benefit from DSA or further left policies, they’re drunk on group identity. (See also: every right wing accusation is a confession, “identity politics”)

I was going to point out how heroic launcher is fine, but that’s not a store.

That’s not really Valve’s fault that all the other storefronts don’t care to support Linux, though.

I enjoy many social interactions.

Went to a concert this weekend. Chatted with the person running the merch table. Briefly chatted with a rando at the bar. Was nice.

Went to a party this weekend. Had a nice chat with some people I’d met before. Maybe came on kind of strong to the socialists in one conversation, but it was fun.

Lemmy probably isn’t going to get you a representative sample of people.

Guild wars 1 and 2 are good games. The second one is still very active.

If we know when and where he’s going to be, which a bunch of other assholes…

Why not both?

You could probably make it look like an accident. “I guess the LLM was having trouble reaching my account after I was deleted, so it posted everything to pastebin so I could see it there”

Still risky and a funnier fantasy than good idea.

Made the mistake of counting someone as their own neighbor :(

Nine minutes, too. Not my fastest!

Guild Wars 2 is the only MMO that doesn’t aggravate me.

• Feels like a real video game. You can dodge and stuff.
• Other players can only help. No “kill stealing”
• Other players are frictionless. They show up, do whatever, leave. No need to make a formal party
• Level cap doesn’t go up. No need to chase stats forever.

You do have to buy the expansions, but the core game is free now.

We should unionize and eat the useless managers.
