Cloudflare's customers probably wouldn't be on board with that. Google's properties provide a tonne of traffic to businesses. Doing anything to put that in jeopardy would probably have many of Cloudflare's customers looking for a new provider.

I'm intrigued, but I'd need to port it to Cyberpunk RED, since that's what I'm playing right now. 😞

I like the last part:

So here’s what I’ll say: You are missed. Not just by me, but by the world you once helped shape.

We remember you. The version of you that lingered at the table. That laughed from the chest. That asked questions and waited for the answers. That touched without taking. That listened — really listened — when a woman spoke.

You are not gone, but your presence is thinning. In restaurants, in friendships, in the slow rituals of romantic emergence.

You’ve retreated — not into malice, but into something softer and harder all at once: Avoidance. Exhaustion. Disrepair.

Maybe no one taught you how to stay. Maybe you tried once, and it hurt. Maybe the world told you your role was to provide, to perform, to protect — and never to feel.

But here’s what’s real: We never needed you to be perfect. We needed you to be with us. Not above. Not muted. Not masked. Just with.

And you can still come back. Not by becoming someone else, but by remembering what connection feels like when it’s honest and slow. When it’s earned and messy and sacred.

We’re still here, those of us who are willing to cocreate something true. We are not impossible to please. We’re not asking for performances.

We are asking for presence. For courage. For breath and eye contact and the ability to say, “I’m here. I don’t know how to do this perfectly, but I want to try.”

Come back. Not with flowers or fireworks, but with willingness. With your whole, beautiful, imperfect heart.

Pretty sure she's proposing to the pizza. After mating with it, she will consume it, like some sort of spider (or other creature where the female eats her mate).

It just seems like dude is suffering from Not invented here and wants to reinvent the wheel. The only reason anyone noticed is because a tech b-lister is involved.

Also Canada - our new PM is cranking up the military spending without raising taxes. It looks like we're gonna get a cut in federal services to pay for the splurge.

Instead of simply encouraging the buildout of a private Canadian cloud, the government should invest in the expansion of a public cloud—built and run by a Crown corporation with public financing to serve government needs, but potentially to expand beyond that too. The government already has data centres of its own, but in recent decades it’s more often looked to the private sector to supply more of its computational needs instead of developing in-house capacities as it did with older forms of information technology.

Ok, but they aren't allowed to use consultants. We don't need another ArriveCAN or Phoenix.

That sounds great!

I ended up using a remix of the 5e Waterdeep: Dragonheist module because it really didn't work for me. It would be a nice change to use a well-written module.

I've Cyberpunk RED's Tales of the RED to be hit or miss. Some adventures are great, but many are meh.

Neat! Thanks for mentioning that.

thousands of enemies, most of which have solid gimmicks that tell you straight from the stat block how you can best run the creature

That's exactly what I want. I spent so much time looking at https://www.themonstersknow.com/ when DMing 5e. I like encounter design, but I feel like I had to work hard to make it passable, rather than work hard to make it excellent.

Exactly! Play the system everyone wants to play.

I'd love to give Shadowrun a shot at my current table, but nobody else wants it so we settled on Cyberpunk RED. I'm GM, so I can port most of the stuff I like from SR to RED. Everybody wins!

• Encounter design and balancing is easy for the busy GM
• Teamwork is highly encouraged through class and ability design

ngl, you're selling it.

Anything that improves combat is a win in my book. I've switched to Cyberpunk RED, and I'm discovering that good combat is hard to make in either system, but encouraging teamwork is a nice way to take a little load off the GM.

I sat through a couple of the Paw Patrol movies when my guys were younger. It helps if you can find a way to appreciate them for what they are.

Or sleep. I slept through the Mario movie and I think that made it way better.

Agreed. It was a fine example of a kid movie with kid actors. If you go in with low expectations, you probably won't be disappointed.

It is not a good movie, but my kids enjoyed it, so I got some vicarious pleasure out of the experience. I wouldn't watch it on my own.

I suspect if you polled the Carney voters from the last election, all but the NDP/Green ABC-crowd would be fine with these policies.

Ironically, many of the voters worried about the collapsing middle class (in the form of stagnating wages and the housing crisis) probably went with the CPC.

That's been the LPC strategy since the early 2000s. It works.

That's what many of his left-leaning detractors have said. Unsurprisingly, the central banker is a dyed in the wool neoliberal who wants to trim government spending while shoveling money towards the private sector to grow the economy. Maybe wealth will finally trickle down this time. 😅
