I agree with those saying mailing lists are intimidating. I don't know if others are using dedicated tools or something but I find web based mailing list UIs just incomprehensibly bad and difficult to navigate.

I'm curious, why did you switch from plug? I keep seeing new plugin managers pop up but plug has been solid for years for me.

I know them outside of d&d

Totally would if we were in person or on camera!

Yeah very good questions! Never quite figured it out in the backstory. Do you think a characters reason for adventuring is tied to how you would play them as a character? Also I'm conscious of going too serious with it. One of our party is a warlock who thinks clerics are just stick up warlocks and has a distinct, and funny (to the players at least!) personality, they're fun to play with, I don't want to make a too serious character who's just not fun to play with.

That's part of the problem in that I can tell you stats and that he believes that generally people deserve to live, to the point where he has died and caused a party member to die to save someone else, but I can't tell you anything about his personality other than it's me, and every character I ever play is like that. Trying to do something different ends up being annoying (my preachy dwarf cleric) or bland (young naïve wizard).

"Too slow to be viable" is a bit strong. I've had a fairphone 4 for at least a year now and I've had no issues.

Cool that's what I thought, just confused by the people saying they've bricked their systems by doing it!

God I miss apt, why would I not want to run -Syu?

I use manjaro btw

[–] Piatro@programming.dev 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At $10 I might just buy it tbh

[–] Piatro@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago

I did the same with manjaro, though I split it so I technically can get back to macos if I really want to. Annoyingly that now means I need to keep an eye on the disk usage.

I've spent entirely too long in the last week or so researching this. You either go cheap but DIY, or expensive but prebuilt. That's not to say that a DIY is always cheaper than a prebuilt, you can go absolutely nuts if you want, but the performance and spec will always be better for the money going DIY. Hot swap drawers are over-rated as you'll maybe use them once a year if that. I can't recommend any specific prebuilt because I haven't used any and am waiting for parts for my DIY build.
