Both are good. From a genre perspective it shows that corporations have taken over. I like the idea of corporate militaries, but corps influential enough to tell governments what to do hews closer to reality.

wizard … However, every DM I have played with seems to forget that spell scrolls, especially Cantrip spell scrolls, are a thing that exist and can be found as loot.
The DM has a tonne of crap to manage. Most modern modules don’t do a very good job of providing dungeons or other places to grind loot.
Talk to the DM and tell them your wizard goals. Hopefully they’ll help you down that path. I was playing an Evoker, and I wanted to up my Int, so my DM and I worked out some purchases and loot to make that happen.
I like Apple. They popularize a lot of features that haven’t gone mainstream (e.g. face unlock, smart phones with touch screens). Integration in their ecosystem is great. I have to use Apple stuff for work, and I’m consistently impressed with quality of life stuff like being able to share a mouse pointer across devices, Wi-Fi password sharing, etc.
That pushes Android to be better. The baby steps back towards lock screen widgets are a nice example of that.
Having said that, iPhones just don’t work for me. I don’t really like them. I don’t like the photos I take with them (but I like other people’s photos 🤷♂️). I like to be able to switch my launcher, so they’re lacking customization for me.
There’s lots of negative stuff about Apple, but that is covered in the other responses to the question.
If I was Winnie the Pooh, I’d pay Owl to go under deep cover for years to get control over the switches, or Kanga to make sure the Switch Master is indisposed when a military assault begins, or Eeyore to physically disable the switches before the attack. Winnie the Pooh has lots of options.
tsmc has already said they’ve installed kill switches on these.
They’d be the first target if/when open hostilities break out. c/ncd loves to shit on the PLA, but I bet this is something they’d try to get right.
I wish we could deescalate this conflict because it benefits NOBODY.

Huh. It sounds like TV had it right this time. I assumed smelling salts were a convenient plot device, rather than an actual thing.
just tabaxi things
Those people are making a lot of money. They can afford to put a few tens of thousands of their $250k+ windfall back into public services.
I have no idea if I’ll ever use this, but it sounds like a great feature.
Never having voted Conservative, I can’t get any real satisfaction from saying “that’s so stupid I’m never voting for them again.”
I guess I can say “That’s so stupid I’m still never voting for them.” But it isn’t the same.
I think there are much better social media platforms for sharing clips. From what I’ve seen, most of Twitter is people angrily typing opinions at each other, so your target demographic may not be there. The UI is designed for text rather than video, and responses/reactions don’t integrate nicely with videos.
Sharing game clips on video-oriented social media makes a tonne sense, however.
Reading the old school D&D subreddit, I also came to realize that dungeons can be reskinned to pretty much any setting, so long as you keep the basic tenets:
So the setting could be the old West, a spacecraft, dungeons, a wilderness, a post-apocalyptic wasteland, etc.
And not everybody likes sandboxes. I tried to get my group to play a sandbox adventure and about half of them lost interest. Sometimes people want a nice predictable plot to pull them along.
This. You want to run a certain type of game, and your players want to play a certain type of game. If you can pitch a dungeon crawl that also scratches their itches, then everyone might be happy.
Let me guess, the downside is infinite teeth.
Yeah, it really seemed to sneak in there. I heard of it through a relative on Facebook.
Any word on delaying French immersion until grade 11 or whatever the latest OCDSB weirdness is? (Beyond what’s in the summary above)
eh. It feels like a good time to start talking about why they want that tax break. It’s because GPs run a business that sells services to each province.
Historically, that’s because docs didn’t trust the whole Tommy Douglas single payer thing. They wanted to stay their own bosses. But the current generation of GPs wants a decent work/life balance, which doesn’t work so well financially. So maybe it’s time to offer GPs the chance to be employees.
Of course, that’s a province-by-province thing, and it’s not our politicians’ style to actually fix shit.
So we’ll get that tax break.
I think the big issue is that doctors are complaining about it. Everyone likes doctors, so tAkINg MoNeY oUt Of ThEiR pOcKeTs in the middle of a healthcare crisis looks bad.
The Beaverton is pretty good. As far as I know, they only do articles, but maybe there’s a podcast.
