I read something ( similar to this) about the maximum data transfer per second in different languages being basically the same.

Some languages with less nuance, or fewer letters/syllables have less information per syllable, but tend to speak faster, while more 'complicated' languages have more information per syllable, but tend to speak slower.

The general trend was a maximum amount of speech 'data' that could be processed by an average human brain per second.

No idea how this would relate to second languages, and how people with 'fast' languages react to speaking 'slow' ones. Would be cool to see some data/research on it. Anocdotally, a lot of people struggle to understand Indians speaking English, is that because of the accent and/or poor English (second language, don't diss them!) or because they are speaking faster than our natural language data speed?

I was talking about the comparison image that appears in the post (pulled from the article)

I have watched some videos on it, very cool. That said, I pretty sure those photos in the comparison are taken at different times of year?

Have you seen any adds yet? 🙂

'*Apps may add adds I guess

That was only really a problem for the second book for me. She is meant to be a child/teenager, probably not whiny though.

Yep, I think this was posted while the site was still down though.

its worth noting that all of these prices don't include VAT or Shipping costs (even if backerkit has your address).

These will all be calculated once the campaign has ended. I assume this means you can back out at a later stage if the shipping prices/import duties etc are awful (which they will be!)

Have managed to back it, I was backer 2000 and some thing at about 70 minutes after it 'launched'

its on their instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/p/C4JB__2rewt/?img_index=1 (actually go to the site and click through to see all the tiers)

Edit those prices don't include VAT or shipping 😱

I was on the page and it said that 13000 others were there, I then stupidly refreshed and now can't get back 😭

its nice to find someone with a really different art style occasionally

The hobby communities really need someone to bootstrap them, posting content, even if it doesn't initially get much engagement.

The problem is that that's actually quite hard work, and can't be rushed, it requires posting a little over a long period of time - and may never get going!

Which are the 'core' D&D communities you are aware of? (so I can subscribe to them all)

I thought that the limitation was needing a payment card from a supported country?

A premade adventure and campaign setting (maybe with a limited class/race set) built on an existing ruleset could be really cool. Not sure this would sell enough to be worth a brand new ruleset?

It depends if the directors.can be found legally liable. I don't think they can be financially liable unless it can be proved they have done something illegal (depending on their company setup)

I think they are a reasonably large and apparently infamous (even before this) developer. They should have the assets to do this. Whether they actually use them or hide them is up for question.

What do you bet the owning company will suddenly go bankrupt (because all it's assets have strangely been sold for £1 to a new company with the same directors)

Bear in mind - software salaries are MUCH less outside of the US

Horner gets fired, Max leaves to mercedes, beats Hamilton in a championship battle in his old car. Both retire. Alonso only champion on grid.

I thought that's what the Pico cells are for - each plane has a mini phone tower in it so phones happily connect to that instead of looking for ground stations
