For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I don't mind the dots being all wonky but opposite faces of the die always add up to 7 and that being off i do not like!

I didn't know dice could feel Harfam

what in unholiness

[–] w3dd1e@lemm.ee 4 points 6 days ago

Thanks, I hate it.

[–] notabot@lemm.ee 5 points 6 days ago

This hurts me, like some kind of low-grade SCP antimemetics.

Damn, very nice.

i was given damas dice as a gift and the dots had this kind of "unfamiliar" patterns. I hate those dice. When you see ⚀ ⚁ ⚂ ⚃ ⚄ ⚅, their interpretation is instantaneous. When you see those "creative" dice, you count :/

I have a set of Bad Dragon dice and they’re impossible to read and I love them

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I’ve heard that brand name mentioned around here, but never related to this type of tabletop game

[–] Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

They make playmats and sets of tabletop dice! And a lot of other things that my partner and I don’t stick into ourselves!

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Well that’s just wholesome af <3 we don’t personally need dice or dildos but I’ll figure out a way to support them

Are y'all actually counting? I instantly "see" the number in my head.

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago

on these funky dice it's easy until 4 but 5 and 6 are harder to recognise at a glance

i feel like you can still easily get used to these ones if you use them regularly, and they look pretty dope if you ask me

[–] Septimaeus@infosec.pub 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah I’d be more concerned about the steel marking whatever surface they’re tossed on, such as wood tabletops.

[–] Khanzarate@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Dang thats cool.

You do have to count though, I feel your annoyance.

I was thinking I wish it were real so I could buy it, but now that I know it is, I don't want to. Do the Germans have a word for this feeling?

[–] Retreaux@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)
[–] Nemean_lion@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 days ago

I dont think that's the word.

[–] hessenjunge@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 6 days ago

Not that I’m aware of. There are however words that describe an imagination that is not real. Like wishful thinking but with connotation. I think these fit best: Hirngespinst,  Wunschvorstellung.

[–] killeronthecorner@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

People crap on AI for getting things wrong but if you look at the image you can clearly see that these dice have zero fingers.

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 9 points 1 week ago

Thanks, I hate this.

To quote Big Jules: I removed the spots for luck. I remember where the spots formerly was.
