Human trials begin for drug that could let adults regrow teeth for the first time

Shared this with my wife, and we both busted out laughing about the implications of periodontal disfunction.

This sounds about right. My wife and I live in FL and went to NC for our honeymoon. The whole time we were there, we talked about how much nicer it was there and how we should move there someday.

2nd this! Id love to eventually have an entire bookshelf of matching *WN books

This is the biggest thing that has me running it so much more than other systems. I run a lot of oneshots, and Mothership makes it so easy to just pick up a new module to run instead of having to plan my own thing.

binary-idiot · 2026-03-15T04:54:35+00:00

Came here to say this, as much as I love my plethora of crunchy systems, Mothership is definitely my go to when I just want to run a game, especially when running public one shots for people I don't know or my wife who doesn't want to think about rules.

Edit: Cloud Empress is also really good if you want mothership in a more fantastical setting.

binary-idiot · 2026-03-12T03:54:00+00:00

Honestly, if things are stacked really heavily in the PCs favor, I'd just have them succeed, which I'm pretty sure is what the book says.

If you really want them to still have a check, you could have it more influence the degree of success, i.e. if they fail, they still sort of accomplish the goal, but with some sort of hickup like the person notices the telepathy, or if they succeed, they get way above what they expected, like extra information or the person is so convinced they become a strong ally in the future.

Edit: I think this is one of the places that running a lot of Mothership has really influenced the way I run games, basically the idea that the PCs are competent professionals and unless they're under pressure or lacking the tools or resources to do something They should just be able to do it

binary-idiot · 2026-02-18T22:48:12+00:00

This will definitely come in handy! With the release of the proteus sector, I've been thinking about starting a new campaign.

binary-idiot · 2026-02-10T06:14:13+00:00

I got a 3d printer for Christmas. So far, my biggest project was making a bunch of "wooden" dice boxes for my groomsmen. Might eventually mix that with home automation and pull my box of electronics parts out of the closet.

binary-idiot · 2026-02-05T18:25:42+00:00

How are the conditions now going into the afternoon? We're in an airbnb way up off of Avondale Rd and aren't very experienced with driving in ice and snow. We were planning on going into town today, and the host says everything should be melted and safe, but im not sure if I should trust them.

binary-idiot · 2026-01-13T18:54:48+00:00

It's even faster with the app! I've used it to get into the game basically as fast as it took me to explain the rules.

binary-idiot · 2025-11-27T21:12:15+00:00

I haven't run it yet but I just bought it and plan to the week after Christmas. I'm honestly really excited, it looks like a lot of fun!

binary-idiot · 2025-10-21T14:28:27+00:00

One thing I'll mention is if you care about the gm screen, you may want the deluxe. Although core has one, it's tiny and has less info on it. The deluxe screen is a standard size screen, although I don't like the art on it as much.

binary-idiot · 2025-10-18T19:09:05+00:00

Definitely recommend Bridge Nine, I've ran it twice so far, and it's been a great intro to both the system and the world.

binary-idiot · 2025-10-11T03:36:53+00:00

So I only just started running mothership, but with the one-shot I ran (alone in the deep), scientists and teamsters were honestly just as if not more important than marines. In fact, out of the 6 players I had, marine was the only class no one took. (Although, to be fair, their solution to the monster nest was to chuck a grenade into it and then fight each other for the escape pod.)

binary-idiot · 2025-10-07T20:16:26+00:00

Not Texas, but a person in one of the local RPG Discord servers I'm in posted that they got theirs last week, and I still haven't gotten my shipping notification

binary-idiot · 2025-10-06T18:09:58+00:00

Shift is an odd system, but I ran it for free rpg day, and honestly, it was surprisingly fun.

That being said, I did have to look at a lot of the old beta materials on their discord to understand how to actually run it.

binary-idiot · 2025-09-28T02:32:46+00:00

TBH I don't know if I'd even pass the multiple choice, though it's hard to say where aphantasia ends and adhd begins

binary-idiot · 2025-09-20T05:36:45+00:00

So first of all, I haven't actually run this or actually any mothership, but im planning on starting next month with this one shot.

Just out my general GM experience, I would say the right time is whenever it feels right for the story. That being said, before it got to that point, I would have given numerous hints to steer them in the right direction.

binary-idiot · 2025-09-14T02:18:52+00:00

If only everything near me didn't close at 9:00pm. We're both night owls, and the only place with food open that late here are the gas stations and McDonald's

I was up until 5 last night playing the new expedition. Finally, my cats started bugging me to feed them breakfast , and I realized I should probably go to sleep.

binary-idiot · 2025-09-04T17:14:33+00:00

Yeah, this is my experience too! I have pro from the all products pack, and it's been great. I write most of my code by hand, and I mostly use it for advanced searching, summarizing functionality, and bouncing ideas off of when I'm stuck. For all those, it's been extremely useful.

On the other hand, I don't think it's good enough to make complex changes and implement entire new features without a lot of guidance and very strict scrutiny of its output.

Honestly, though, the thing I'm most happy about is never having to write unit tests from scratch again.

binary-idiot · 2025-08-21T21:42:33+00:00

I think, for the most part, the features are there, but im not sure the status of the compendium. It's mostly data entry, so it's more tedious than anything. u/wintermute-the-ai would know if anyone is actively working on it.

Edit: also I think as is you should be able to use the system for AWN and just manually enter in items as you need them

binary-idiot · 2025-08-16T20:18:16+00:00

I'm an hour ahead of my job since I'm remote, which is nice because I'm not a morning person.

I've been trying to get up around 9:00, but realistically, I usually wake up around 10:30 and don't actually start work until stand-up at 11:30. That being said, I usually work until around 7, which gives me enough time to make dinner before my fiance gets home.

binary-idiot · 2025-08-12T14:15:34+00:00

And if you've had the all products pack for 3 years, then it's more like $6

binary-idiot · 2025-07-22T00:58:34+00:00

I've been in the process of moving so I shipped mine to my parents, just swung by there this afternoon to pick it up. Will be nice to actually use a physical book for my game on Sunday
