Also some of them close to me allow you to rent/lend actual telescopes with a library card!

Aren't we also "just" animals as well though?

(Not defending either side, I just really dislike it when statements suggest we aren't also literally animals that somehow figured out to think slightly more than others...)

And then there are devs/games like Nolla/Noita which specifically included a nice little message for data miners which asked them to keep all the gained secrets a secret until a certain date with a reward for both them and the community if they did and who would have guessed: they did! And now they are immortalized inside the games credits!

Oh but the fireworks of Ericas "broader detect magic" became so popular that she actually added back all the spark colors for all the moral edge cases!

We now have novice wizards playing around with exactly how angry they need to be and how gaudy their robes need to be to get the different signals triggered...

Or just plug it into a running campaign: A wizard was using another smaller plane of existence as this, but they have somehow become unable to close it again and the party need to venture inside to fix it so he may safely close it again!

And then you start winning nobel prizes!

Those are some interesting gradients!

Also I can't unseen that smile in the west now...

Whaat‽ You mean auto downloading and executing foreign JavaScript in a users webpage from some server/CDN I might not even know myself as an ad company could be an attack vector? Never!

(This mostly for those people who may not know that some [most? Dunno don't have a source for this] ad networks literally allow advertisers to inject small chunks of html into pages for "more interactive/better ads"!!)

Except a kid like that automatically has a free pass for eternally being pissed about their father and their father before them not also having had that name so they could be "... the third'!

Not quite, for Java you still need the Factory part at the end!

Did... did you just copy their comment word for word and posted it as a reply‽

Why? (And now don't anyone suggest a bot, because that's stupid programming for a bot so unlikely, hopefully)

Now I want to know wether the rules allow you to stand perfectly inside your mirror image (don't have a 5th ed./any other D&D ed. rulebook to check myself, sorry)... Because if it does (without going all wavy or otherwise distorting) and it casts a reflection this could be a fun "find the hidden vampire in this banquet hall with mirrors" scenario!
