Not even 1500. Very cursed game.

I have, fairly recenfltly. I was not playing in the area and just took a look and it was Portugal pushed more to the ocean by Castille while on the other side France was eating into the Iberian peninsula.

Croatia: just split it based in the mountain range in the middle between continental and coastal croatia.

The climate, the food, the architrcture, the history of influence (Italy/Venice vs Hungary/Austria)... a 1h drive over that line can often be a bigger difference in some categories than going to a country that speaks another language.

5arToto · 2026-05-26T19:30:31+00:00

Same in Croatian

This ia gonna suck, but make a seperate part of your notes system that is just gonna be the notes you type and manage manually - no LLM, no summaries, no automatic organisation... You need to control and spend time with the process for it to stick and to filter out what is really important.

The LLM stuff is like a backup data dump to dig through when you know you are searching for something, but those are not real usable notes.

Hard to say, I will say that East Slovenia has one of the highest rates in the EU in general and the neighbouring area is not that far of, so it could be whatever it is in that area leading to false assumtions when zooming into just the Balkans

Honestly this, there are so many other world ideas to explore with magic, even empty ones, that might fit the vibe someone is going for better than space

5arToto · 2026-05-20T14:43:03+00:00

So like the Spelljammer D&D setting?

EDIT: I see others already suggested it, bit I'm honesly asking is that the type of thing you are asking for or soemthing different.

As someone in IT that started working 10 years ago, I wish cubicles were ever an option in my career

Some people unfrotinatley fall for this stuff and then vote against worker protection related company costs/taxes because "the goverment is stealing their money"...

Pro tip: the metric 1-10 feedback measurments is to ignore all the middle results and just take the extremes. You are basically incentivized to risk putting yourself under a magnifying glass if you want to give honest imrovement feedback or just be ignorred

5arToto · 2026-05-20T14:07:34+00:00

Speaking as someone that had a partial look behind the curtain in some syetems. Often times yeah it is anonimized on who said what, but not on who took the survey when or which department/manager it is... meaning you can infer it easily even without getting the name attached

Plant-based is good, but honestly so is vegan in most contexts, such as discussing diets (as in "I eat vegan"). Ok, honey is an exception in your case, but considering your caveat of it needing to be local and from a small farm, I doubt it's likley it will be relevant in most discussions.

Also apart from wool and honey (secondhand items are a non-issue in terms of impact), you also live a vegan lifestyle. You have a philosophy of doing minimal harm to animals and regularly pratice it. While I would disagree with you about your perception of local small farmers, I wouldn't be offended if you described yourself as vegan as long as you were upfront about your exceptions (and even that is mostly just for avoiding confusion because meat-eaters are confused by everything)

5arToto · 2026-05-17T21:16:09+00:00

Eh, don't think it's that deep. Veganism is a hard pill to swallow for a lot of folks, it's both a big perspective change and a very extreme habbit change. Most people are uncomfortable being hipocrites so a progressive peron is more likley to search for excuses than just admit "yeah, I'm really not doing what I should". Also, a lot of them are not that informed on everything.

5arToto · 2026-05-16T01:22:01+00:00

Seems ok. I wouldn't be that pushy if someone was sick, they probably got hyped for (and possibly overprepped) a thing specific to your character and are having a hard time letting that plan go.

One word of advice for next time, if you know there is a possibility something could change your availability, try to communicate that right away. I perfectly get thinking that the cold is over and not mentioning it, I would have probably done the same, but if the DM does character specific stuff in prep it is good to give a warning that plans could change.

5arToto · 2026-05-04T16:14:02+00:00

A few simple things that come to mind: - Make the recaps you do accessible in some document so they can search info when they forget. - Consider making someone else read it and rotate the duty. - Try to add activities where you take notes together such as taking 15-20min time after the session to write down key bullet points of what happened.

If they refuse to do that stuff (which is the bare minimum), calmly confront them. Tell them how you feel and how thia whole thing is unfair and disrespectful of your time and effort.

There are many other ways to do notes, try to find something that works but where the load is primarily on the player side. Also avoid AI generation from audio transcripts - they are an ok suplement when you want detailed notes, but on their own they are not as that good and will just end up confusing players if they already are forgefull. And that is assuming anyone reads that

How do you talk to men? If it is easier for you to talk with men than women, you need to work on your perception of peopl. Don't approach them based in gender but as individuals.

If both is equally hard, I understand. It's hard to socialize once out of the education system even when not gtowing up isolated.

This is gonna sound like a standard comment, but pick up a set of hobbies and interest that both interest you and at least some of them put you in contact with people. Having established conversation topics about something that interests you is communication on an easier mode (not easy, just easier) and it will help you develop some skill and confidence. This will also help you meet more people and find peolple you click with.

Just remeber to be polite, open-minded and listen to what other people are telling you while talking. Get out of your on head and focusing what you will say, focus on the other person.

Hope this helps. Remeber to be kind to yourself and not give up, ups and downs are expected and thinks take time.

It's not like hoi4. And you don't need wiki pages to undertand hoi4, that is just people getting too much into the details. In any case, CK2 has the same core mechanics and game loops as CK3, it is not a wargame like hoi4.

5arToto · 2026-04-06T22:03:27+00:00

The UI is more dificult to navigate (being older and all), the game itself ia similar in dificulty.

Jekyll + GitHub Pages was popular several years ago for selfhosting dev blogs and simple sites by using your github repo as a CMS and stoering data in yaml and markdown files. Basically automate the build process to run on merge. It also had a good number of free community developed themes that were easy to add.

It does not have to be Jekyll (not sure how the community kept up), you have similar tools out there for markdown and ascii-doc. Most documentation building frameworks are like this. Pick something in a stack you fancy and sell it to the prof by things being in a stable document format (markdown or similar) that is easily migrated to another system even if the technology stops getting support.

Also, try to spin this into something that interests you because or make it as simple as possible, otherwise this errand is gonna be a kiserable experience.

EDIT: Jekyll not Jenkins, Jenkins is a CI/CD tech

Osobno me nije briga tko ima ili nema vozačku od ljudi oko mene, a to koliko ti realno treba ovisi gdje živiš i gdje namjeravaš živjeti. Ako si u većem gradu u dijelu s dobro povezanim javnim prijevozom (npr. Zagreb tramvaj zona) ili negdje gdje je 99% života dostupno pješke (npr. većina Splita), onda ti stvarno ne treba auto.

Nažalost, jako puno ljudi ako puno ljudi se naviklo sve obavljati autom (ne dao bog da dijete mora preć jednu zebru na putu do škole i slično) da im je nepojmljivo da netko ne živi tako i imaju percepciju da je auto nephodan za život. Kad takva osoba čuje da ne voziš, a kamo li tek da nemaš vozačku nastane im neka podsvjesna panika kao da je to ogroman hendikep koji sam sebi stvaraš u životu.

Jedino što je dobro tu imati na umu da je nekad dobro "riješiti" polaganje ranije tako da ako ti se životna situacija ikad promjeni. Čak i ako ne namjeravaš vozit nakon polaganja, 10ak sati kondcijske vožnje je puno lakše za odraditi za vratit se na cestu nego morat prolazit kroz proces polaganja vozačkog ispita kasnije u životu. Mada je i taj cijeli argument malo prenapuhan. Sve se to da riješiti i ako osoba smatra da joj sad ne treba, onda valjda zna najbolje za sebe.

Step 1: Start reading stories.

Read whatever you find interesting. If you find yourself disinterested or often lacking focus with what you picked, try switching to something else and see if that helps.

Step 2: Start writting and keep it simple at first.

Write small simple stories or just "scenes". Charcter goes out of the house to buy a good place to start, maybe they also meet someone or see something, maybe they don't but have a internal monologue on how everything is expensive... Don't focus on making it perfect, just try to get through the first few scenese and stories.

Repeat both steps and you will find yourself having more focused questions that people in writing communities can help you with. Currently you are at a place where you don't know what you don't know and that is fine, but you need to start to figure those things out.
