I didn't know that was on the docket. Where can I fond out more about that?

TL;DR: Cancer is coming for us all.

Looks like a dead thread, but I've been playing PF2e since it came out. I bought the books to support Paizo, but literally haven't used any (minor exception for adventure path books).

Me and my group almost exclusively rely on free tools: pf2easy tools - encyclopedia of rules and monsters. Great for looking up specific rules/stats
Path Builder - For building / Managing characters. Has an 8/10 mobile app and google drive sync (extra handy for moving sheets between devices)
Archives of Nethys - Authoritative source for rules. I really only use it for "exploring" new content. I don't know if they've maintained this rate, but used to be new content/rules would be up on this site within 2 weeks of them being published in books.

Just engineering in general.

While my "google-fu" for finding resources is garbage, I have a cousin with nearly encyclopedic knowledge of engineering reference material. He's sent me things for figuring out where is safe to hang hammock chairs, acceptable bolt dimension/materials for car applications, and a bunch of other crazy niche things.

That reference material for all this just exists and is generally just accessible still blows my mind.

Better question, why did it take us so long to come up with this.

So what I'm hearing is we just need to return to tradition and start curing our own meats in our backyard smokehouses?

Looks unpleasant but generally not dangerous.

I think that's the point he was trying to make.

Damn it.

Could we perhaps grow a whale in the vacuum of space?

[–] DahGangalang 2 points 4 weeks ago

You're right, its a suboptimal example.

But I can conclude that its not so dangerous as to lead to imminent death / disability within 30 years. So how "unsafe" is eating processed meat anyway?

The article makes like you're doomed to develop colon cancer if you mom ever fed you a single bite of hamburger helper as a kid. Obviously, that's a ridiculous conclusion.

Hmmm, could we perhaps make a large enough one from a whale stomach?

Also what definition of "safe".

My grandpa eats at least one burger per week and he's turning 90 next year. So obviously "safe" isn't a measure of imminent and near term death?

Yeah, def dread the day Gabe leaves the company.
