What dnd character concepts do you wish you could get to play?
  • An old wizard who’s on a quest to re-learn all of his spells. If the DM allowed for it, he’s accomplished it several times but has a Sisyphus curse to lose his memory and start from level 1 again when he finally gets his memory back. Maybe he finds a way out, maybe he doesn’t but I’d like to play that sometime. Buuut that requires friends and time and I’m a middle aged dad of 3 lmao

  • ‘Exhausted’ Americans are tuning out politics, according to cable news ratings and recent poll
  • Same exact thing happened to me. I’ve got a mile long filter list and I still ended up with the puckered butthole on my feed. It happens so infrequently now though haha

  • 'Shrinking' Season 2 Finale: Jason Segel on Brett Goldstein, Forgiveness
  • I’ve been watching it trying to figure out what nags at me about it and I think it’s all the rich people doing rich people things having rich people problems that I’m supposed to relate to. The writing is funny and I enjoy parts of it but yeah. Can’t really relate to any of the rich characters and their lives.

  • How America Lost Control of the Bird Flu, Setting the Stage for Another Pandemic
  • To add to this - get a pack of cheap washcloths to dry your clean undercarriage and your toilet paper usage is near or realistically at zero. Take that, Big-TP!

  • Asbestos removal stalls as uninsured home owners baulk at clean-up cost
  • Cost is a huge factor but emptying the entire house for a week isn’t feasible working from home either, haha. Also my wife and I separately lost and found new jobs this year. Now that we’re both employed hopefully we’ll be able to get everything done and move as soon as the market allows for it.

  • Asbestos removal stalls as uninsured home owners baulk at clean-up cost
  • I’ve got the abatement crew showing up for round 3. First round was bedrooms, second round was basement, 3rd round is the garage. Each one costs between $3k-4k USD. It’s taken us years to get rid of this shit.

  • How's the battery life after you've had one for a while?
  • I know it’s been almost a month but I somehow stumbled on the battery health on the deck and it says it’s at 84%. I assume that means after years of heavy, almost daily use it’s dropped by 16%. Ifixit has battery replacements for ~$100 USD so if I don’t replace this baby in another couple years the battery won’t be too bad to replace.

    I’m more worried about wearing out the bumpers and triggers. The LB is getting a little worn down and I wouldn’t say unresponsive but some days it rides the struggle bus for sure.

  • A barrelful of details on Donkey Kong Country Returns HD
  • How many times is this game gonna be released?

  • [Discussion] What games are you playing on your deck? - December 2024
  • I spend hours setting up mods for games I’ve never played before so I can play the “best” version of it just to either get it working and play for a hell of a lot less time than I spent setting it up or giving up and going back to one of my comfort games.

  • Crunchyroll to Move Episodes of One Piece From Ad-Supported Tier to Premium Tier
  • That’s what I’m watching. There was a time when I would cringe listening to dubs but these days I gotta watch while I’m working or it ain’t getting watched. They’ve even got a streaming service set up!

    Sick name btw haha

  • Crunchyroll to Move Episodes of One Piece From Ad-Supported Tier to Premium Tier
  • One Pace, my friend. Been watching it steadily and I love it. Never would have gotten into it if it weren’t for One Pace

  • Union soldier sighting a canon. Gettysburg, July 2nd, 1863 (colorized)
  • I coulda gone a lot longer before finding this out.

  • *You* are using "let alone" wrong. [CW: prescriptivism]
  • I didn’t know this, I don’t think I used it incorrectly before, but thanks to you I’m going to see this every time now and it’s going to bug me. Thanks for the infection, haha.

  • How's the battery life after you've had one for a while?
  • I haven’t noticed a huge difference and I’ve been playing it like crazy on both the dock and handheld. Battery wildly depends on the game and performance settings. It’s my primary gaming device and I love to tinker with it but I haven’t noticed a degradation at all.

  • Boy Meets Gnor
  • He wanted a wiener the size of a horse is my guess.

  • GC Seal Farming

    In an effort to get some more discussion going I figured I'd ask this here. I'm in a mostly-solo FC right now and I need GC Seals like mad to upgrade my subs. I can't find any post-DT info on the quickest/best route to getting GC Seals. I know I can turn my nut sacks into gear in Old Sharlayan but I'm not interested in that, I'm looking for Unsync'd duties. Any suggestions?

    Thank you!

    A guide on how to use the Gole 2 Pro device as a Linux phone
  • I saw this symbol and thought a Total Annihilation was on the way. My heart is entirely broken.

  • Monster Hunter Wilds Players Aren't Happy That It Can "Barely Run" On PC
  • MH language is only in the $110 version. It’s been removed from the base game and added as DLC just like G-Rank /s

  • Final Fantasy 14's next big challenge: Making players feel like they're getting their monthly sub's worth—not just funding Square's flops while WoW stacks value
  • I'm unfamiliar with software development output bottlencks and how they relate to artists. In your opinion, how could an increase in production artists not increase art production?

  • Final Fantasy 14's next big challenge: Making players feel like they're getting their monthly sub's worth—not just funding Square's flops while WoW stacks value
  • I’ve been a die-hard player since 2.0. I love where the game is at in a lot of places. My gripe is that for all the money this game brings in, we’re constantly being told that things are out of their budget. Getting all the races to be able to wear hats, for example. If XIV is their most lucrative title, why is the budget the excuse for EVERY little thing they “can’t” do?

  • Biden supporters mostly back him in 2024 election because they oppose Trump, poll finds
  • Next up, water conclusively makes things wet. More at 11.

  • How long is one obligated to keep a kid’s gift?

    If you buy someone’s kid a toy for their birthday or a holiday, how long before you’re not offended to find out it’s been chucked?

    Upload is at 0. Losing my mind.

    To whom it may yoho:

    So I’ve got a linux server with Docker installed a a container with Deluge in it. I have 98 torrents currently in Active or Seeding status. My download and upload speeds are set according to my calculated rates for my speed test. Ports are set for incoming connections, that port is included in the Docker container config, allowed through the firewall on the server itself and forwarding set up on my router. I have 3 private trackers I’m testing with those 98 torrents and the torrents are a mix of high seeding demand torrents and just whatever I had sitting around. The only torrent out of 98 that are uploading anything is the Ubuntu torrent I’ve been using to see if it could be the private trackers.

    Speed test:

    Download speed is 347Mbps Upload speed is 23Mbps

    DNS settings are set to use 75.75.75.75 and 76.76.76.76 and 8.8.8.8 on my router. My server is set to use the router as the DNS.

    The 63430 port I’m using has been confirmed as open from external port checkers.

    I have tried using qbitorrent on a separate machine and have been running into the same problems so it sounds like it’s a network-wide issue.

    I am not behind a VPN (yet… though it sounds like it could be a requirement)

    This is my home network and I own the Gateway so any ISP shenanigans would be from outside the home.

    Does anyone have any suggestions? And is this the right place to ask?

    Thank you in advance! I’m running out of hair to tear out!

    Way late edit: In case anyone finds this in the future, my permissions were set incorrectly. The user that was running the torrent app didn’t have folder access…

    Stripped Screw Hole in Ceiling Advice

    I was hanging a ceiling fan in this room when I discovered that the mounting screw holes in the electrical box are stripped. My dad has suggested using JB Weld putty, letting it cure, drilling it out with a small bit and then using wood screws. First time homeowner and have neither the confidence nor the expertise to completely replace the box. Is my dad’s route the best course of action or is it a waste of time and/or dangerous to go that route?
