I have once warmed my balls.
It matters to sponsors. Big companies pay money to have their name slapped on everything, and then huge amount of marketing to ensure the max audience size means many more eyes in the sponsors crap. The NFL makes a killing on these sponsored events, so they will drive up the engagement wherever they are. And since sports matter to many Americans, this needs to REALLY SUPER matter.
I agree, who cares about teams picking players except for the players?
I am asking this more out of curiosity than criticism, but how would you deal with someone who is emotionally unavailable, shows signs of childhood abuse, but treats you pretty fairly?
I didn't even think they got the humor right. Watching episodes without the laugh track shoes the jokes are just a group of bullies being bullies to each other.
I had the same issue with Red Hat 6.1 on a cheap PC. One of the reasons I love using Arch is it gives me the nostral of those days.
It's kind of a mixed bag question. But the big question is why is there such a huge emphasis on monsters in the first place? There are a ton of monsters in all editions of d&d, so why aren't there monsters discussed in Tolkien by the characters like this? There were a few, and either a large creature from the depths of hell that only struck one place, a giant spider who was content to be in her home and not be bothered by Hobbits, and an army of orc/goblin hybrids. In a d&d game, we are supposed to be attacked by several monsters, all different types, at any given time.
My Linux journey was pre XP, I was still in 98Se edition and my Linux disk didn't have a working GUI on it.

Why Monsters, and Why So Many?
I was watching some RPG YouTube, and of course there was talk about Monsters. And with the recent OMG CONTROVERSY with the newest Monster Manual, I got to thinking about something that is more inherent in D&D and in fantasy games in general, why so many monsters? I've played various other games, and read many books, watched many movies, but it seems that fantasy games, with D&D leading the charge, seem to have more monsters than any other medium in the genre, or other genre's in particular. So yeah, why are there so many monsters?
I will put my pan on the stovetop at the highest level and use that to dry. Then I'll wipe a couple of layers of oil with a good paper towel. Usually does the trick if I wash it within an hour or so after cooking. But if it goes in the oven, it is upside down. No oil will pool that way.
I'm from Detroit and our zoo sucks. You would think with how much ticket prices are that it would be better.
By far, one of the best zoos I have ever been to.
People who chew with their mouth open. Looks and sounds disgusting.
When asked, I usually tell people that I vote Dem because it's as close to my anarchist ideals as I can get. I would consider myself a social-anarchist, in that I feel laws shouldn't be written around societal structures and ideals. Society and culture changes, and I shouldn't be punished because some dude generations ago decided that something was inappropriate back then. It isn't now, and shouldn't be codified that way,
Wrong agenda. It doesn't matter who on the political divide is right or wrong, the agenda is the ad money and continued viewership.
Dude, Cheetara from ThunderCats had it going on!
Walmart made sure they were specific about the reason being reporting to the wrong supervisor and creating a security risk. Can't call it wrong that way.
And how's that been going for you? When people shout enough, the ones that need to listen start to tune it out. But start hitting wallets? Can't tune that out.
Which fees will get lowered? Prime? The sellers still have to pay fees to cover it. Amazon won't care unless the people who are actually paying for everything leave. Be an example and start competing. Doesn't even need to be a business that sells stuff to compete. Start a blog with talking about sites to buy everything outside of Amazon and Walmart.
Have you tried? I'm trying.
OH NO! It's someone slapping a label on an idea to make it sound bad. Yeah, maybe we should reinvent the wheel. What good does this do to fix the problem? Call it what you want, but give me an alternate solution at the same time. Something that anybody can do.
So what you are telling me is that the options are so limited that we shouldn't even try? That the only way to fight is to give up and buy crappy clothes from Walmart and be glad for it? Chain restaurants are the only option for dining options? Eat your Big Mac and remember your fries.
And those resources available to large corporations, there are resources available to small businesses too. Tax breaks are out there for different reasons. Negotiate for cheaper resources. Don't give up.

Resistance Against Large Corporations is Competition
I had the thought that the only way to really fight against large corporations and billionaires is to compete against them. Start your own business. Amazon relies on third-party sellers more than anything in their business. So start a business and sell your items there. Don't have anything to sell? People are a creative bunch, make something. Find a local producer of something and make a partnership to sell on an independent web site.

So what are your favorite, or just memorable, out-of-print RPGs?
I want to start a stream with some of my friends and other players trying to play these games. So I wanted to get a list of them before starting the stream. And they don’t even have to be good.

It's like every time the decorator said no, they went with it anyway.
Apologies for the FB post, but that's where I'm finding it.

Magic the Gathering is overrated and hasn't been a good and consistent game in almost two decades.
I haven't played since before Wizards started pushing Commander, at that time called EDH. I felt the Standard Format was a perfect setup to keep the game fresh and innovative while still making money, and the Legacy Format was perfect for the people who had cards that are no longer in Standard. I think the Commander Format killed a perfect system, and Wizards/Hasbro are just trying everything to make money and keep the game mostly unplayable with the licensed tie-ins.

I made a pot roast and it is AMAZING!


First time making a pot roast, even after the cat knocked over and shattered the wine bottle overnight. Wife reminded me that we had a bottle in the pantry.
Playtesters wanted - Merovingian Order
The link to the PDF is in the playtest link, as well as a link to a feedback survey.

Pirates of Lemmy, how many torrents are in your queue that are just stuck?
I have five.

What's your hot take on the Marvel cinematic Universe?
Mine is that the Disney+ shows should not have any impact on the movies, that they should just be on their own.

What's your Star Trek hot take?
Mine is that Discovery should have been a series taking place in the Picard era.

What is your Star Wars hot take?
Mine is they shouldn't have made the sequel series without George as a consultant.

Get the frozen pre-made meal or just make it yourself?
I have this argument with my wife often. I like to cook, and for me cooking is more than taking frozen meatballs and dumping them into a pan full of jar pasta sauce. I would rather make the sauce, maybe have some meatballs made in advance. My wife seems to think that pre-made stuff or mixes are the way to go. I would rather just make pancakes scratch, which isn't hard, where she would rather I just open the mix, add water, and make the food. But I do agree that having a frozen lasagna is better than taking the full effort when I just want to get dinner going. So where are your eat the pre-made vs make it from scratch?

SeleneCMS - Content Management for Symfony
CMS built as a Symfony Bundle. Contribute to SeleneSoftware/SeleneCMS development by creating an account on GitHub.
I've been working on this on and off, could use some other eyes to help expand features, maybe some pull requests. Let me know what you think. I just uploaded version 0.0.12 and I am going to start working on 0.0.13. The CMS is built in a bundle, so that's where most of the features are. What I have linked here is the skeleton app, but installation is still beefy. Thanks everyone!
Edit: Forgot the link to the bundle https://github.com/SeleneSoftware/seleneCMSBundle

Big corporation locations, franchises, or independent shops, which is better to work at for retail?
Is the pay better? Is the amount of BS from management lower? How about the customers?

Finding Local Groups
Lately, I have been having a problem with finding in-person players. I have visited shops to find them full of Magic and other TCG players, but no role-players. Several game stores in my area are like this. I have posted on relevant socials and Discords like the Discord server for a game store, local area RPG players Discord and FB pages, LFG groups on reddit and Lemmy and Discord. I'm wondering if anybody else has this problem, and how are you trying to solve this?
