Same! I was left with a small vestigial growth on the side of my pinky that baby me used as a fidget until they cut it off.

After telling a handful of stories to the goblin students I work with, one suggested that my life is so interesting because I have to live two people worth of experiences.

Spend a year working in a retirement home. Then mirror that energy and just commit wholly to the bit.

I shit you not, this has gotten me out of trouble dozens of times. Any time I get pulled over I pull out the "golly jeez" and "oh dang" and proceed to talk the cop's ear off about the fine minutia of my incredibly boring day.

Once got pulled over in a tiny town at 3am in a boaty cadillac with a dope sticker on the back windshield. Watched the cop go from "drug bust of the century" to "please don't let anyone see me here" in about 4min. Literally watched the man's will to live leave his body when I started taking about d&d.

LoFi beats to use Fire Spin to.

I took to rolling mine, takes half the space, quarter of the time, and no wrinkles or seems.

Pro tip, you can also cook oatmeal and beans in it and it's better then any other way.

This movie is so fucking good because of him! I honestly want him to do more lovecraft stuff.

The skull chick is a bit hokey, but I love the other two!

I'm in my 30's and though I'm the most stable and financially well off that I've ever been, I'm still not well off enough to stop checking over furniture left on the curb. I'll likely never have the money to buy anything without doing math first. No matter my efforts, my only retirement option is a serious workplace injury with a big pay out. The most lavish purchase I make every month is the internet bill, which I literally need to do my online schooling.

Kansas is very much the same, though it has some "hills" in one county. I cannot stress how oppressive it is to stand on a 3 story building and see the curve of the earth. The only thing I disliked more was the ocean.

Could someone do mine?

Not to argue the meme, but plenty of masters still get injured by their craft.

 

So I'm very new to self hosting. When I set up Ubuntu server and jellyfin it formatted as a logical drive. I can't for the life of me parse how I add the other terabytes worth of disks I have to the machine. Can someone eli5?

 
 

I'm trying to make a pocket pet game, like the evolution of all the little calculator screened toys in the 90's and 00's. I don't want it to be the whale hunting, spyware riddled garbage that most phone games are. I'd rather like to release it on F-Droid instead of Google if I release it at all. I have all of it worked out on paper, from the random tables to the creature stats, to the combat mechanics, you can play it as a pen and paper if you wanted to. Problem is, I'm a pen and paper guy, and I'm having an awful time trying to learn anything about code. Where do I go to get help with this?

So I'm sure just about everyone knows "The Cool S". It's ubiquitous in school culture and if you haven't drawn it, you probably know someone who has.

The thing is, no one knows where it came from. Everyone has a cool cousin or older sibling that "invented" it, or claim it's from some group or company, but it always turns up to be false. In fact, the oldest known example is in a book cataloging street art published in 1973. From there it's been found on basically every notebook and lunch table the world over and represents a big niche in childlore.

So here's where I go off the deep end... What if this is actually The Yellow Sign?

The yellow sign is never expressly described in the story, with the weird wiggly one being an artist rendition. However, in The King in Yellow, a character draws it freehand to show someone. Which implies it's easy to freehand which the current one isn't. Furthermore, think of the purpose. The yellow sign is intends to spread Hasturs influence secretly. The current one, while undoubtedly cool, is also strange and stands out. If you're wearing it on your person, it stands out. The S doesn't. I'm writing this on break and there's 3 in this room alone. No one cares.

Now take a moment to consider the vector. The best time to indoctrinate someone is young. Why fight to catch the random mad reader when you can net up whole classrooms in a single day and whole schools in a week? No one takes it seriously because it's a children's doodle. A thing we draw absent-minded as we remember our youth.

For all we know, we're all infected and didn't even know.

 

I've been playing with the terralyst lately and found out that a mediocre velocitus as a call down and on a necromech will take huge chunks off it's health. The necromech is even better because it isn't bothered by all the knock back and stagger.

As I don't have any of the meta frames for eidolon hunts, this has been a bit of a game changer for me and has me wondering how this would stack up with meta options. I've got a Lanka and it's nowhere near as effective even at double the fire rate.

Has anyone else played with this? I'd love to hear other stories on how the new deployables work with hunts.

 
 

Like, could you make a smaller version of a 1911 that fires 22lr instead of .45 by just scaling all the parts to the 22lr?

 

I have some old digital photos that I'd like to bring into modern resolutions, I know ai won't really be the same as doing it by hand but I doubt my grandma will notice. Is there a reliable site or way to use stable diffusion for this?
