I had a nice little profile on there until about a month ago. I didn't delete when I saw AI spammers join. And I kept my profile even when the mods were starting to become reddit-ish. What sent me over the edge was when they announced a partnership with an AI company who said they were "just there to beef up security". Yeah, no, not for me. Super sad, too, because Bluesky is a good idea, but I'm sticking with the fediverse.

Ubuntu user here. I get glitches from time to time, and the newest update caused a more than small issue with booting. However, compared to the litany of glitches, bloatware, and user-anti-interface of Windows, I'll sing the praises of Ubuntu all day long. Even the few games I play, like Cyber Punk, run perfectly.

But a printer requires money, which requires a job, which requires a resume, which requires a printer, which requires money, which requires a job, which requires a resume...

1000% this. Spending even an entire work-day to go attend training is part of being in the work force. I'd be spending my personal time dusting off my resume.

Never sailed in a pool before, brb.

Well, from HS bio, I remember urine is stored in the balls. So, maybe some other way to make babby?

Don't see the kid anywhere in the image, so gotta have something to go on the head.

In other news, it is a bad idea to touch a lit stovetop.

Here's what I remember:

Started in a sleepy town at night in a tavern. NPC comes in and says there's been another abduction.

Everyone runs out and the party joins one of the village rangers who turns out to be a regular NPC for most of the session.

The only lead for the abduction is into the forest. Once the party gets to a certain point, they have an encounter and the ranger leaves, and another NPC shows up who is the leader of the secret village i the forest. They explain that there is no way to leave their village, and they have been hunting a crystal stag (this has the secret item needed to engage the Big Boss, the Veil Keeper, who's been abducting villagers and also is the reason no one can leave the hidden forest village.

Once the party defeats the stag and goes into the Veil Keeper's fortress, they realize the ranger NPC from earlier is the Veil Keeper.

Fill in whatever else you like. I added and changed a ton as we went along to make things more interesting.

Just did one with the family. Was a mystery-abduction tale and I ended up adding in stuff as we went to make it more interesting. I think the baddie was the Veil Keeper or something, and their lair was a time-locked village with a one-way path into it from a dark forest. Dunno what specifics you're asking for, but I can try to share more if you want.

Will have to try this. Been getting the same issues but didn't think to check VPN.

Edit: Looks like that did it. Thanks for the tip!

I second this. I'm into gaming and dev, so I went with the Framework 16 amd got the extender for the graphics card. These are amazing machines and work with linux out of the box. Also modular, which was a requirement for me. Good luck searching!
