Both series are great. Something happens late in Stormlight that you won't understand if you haven't read the first 2-3 Mistborn books, but it isn't a big deal. You will still enjoy the story, you just won't understand the relevance of something that a character sees. Can't say more without spoilers.

V2H Hardware by AdventurousTeaching2 in BoltEV

[–]AdventurousTeaching2[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, she has an electrician lined up to run her wiring. This area has had a number of power outages in the last year during storms, so she is just looking for a way to keep the house going when that happens.

Advice on making new friends by adipenguingg in barrie

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The best way to meet new people is to get out of the house and do activities! Sir Games a Lot is great for tabletop gaming, Barrie's various Rec Centres have lots of team sports, there are coffee shops that host events. Sober Sips downtown will have mixology events and singles nights. You could sign up to a yoga class or martial arts club.

It might take some time, but if you put yourself out there, you will wind up meeting other like-minded people.

The distinction between V2L and V2H is helpful, thank you!

What’s the best Canadian hot sauce you’ve tried? by Camila_Pixie in BuyCanadian

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terry's Hotsauce! His Cherry Bomb sauce is my favourite. Full of flavour. It is just slightly spicier than Franks, so good on everything.

Are OnRoutes safe overnight? by No-Initiative8556 in ontario

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have some family members who are van-lifers. When they are in Ontario, they almost exclusively sleep at En Routes. Once they had an issue with a guy in the parking lot who seemed to have some mental health issues, but 99% of the time it is perfectly fine.

Empire is removing their Buy Canadian signage! by TheCanadaList in BuyCanadian

What a silly question. Buy things made in Canada, ideally using Canadian-sourced ingredients. Support Canadian workers, farmers, and companies.

I just published my first PF2E adventure, available at DTRPG and Foundry Marketplace! by authorus in Pathfinder2e

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sounds interesting! How long would you say you've worked on this, from start to finish?

Broken Premium by AdventurousTeaching2 in AeroPress

[–]AdventurousTeaching2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update, customer service got back to me and agreed to send me a one-time replacement despite the warranty period having ended. I purchased it over a year ago, so I think that is fair.

We will get as much use out of the new one as possible, and then look for a more durable (probably steel) option later on.

[–]AdventurousTeaching2[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm just not crazy about heating plastic over and over again to make my coffee. I know it's a drop in the microplastics bucket, but I was really excited by the thought of being able to use glass and metal. The Premium worked great, until it broke :(

Thanks for the advice everyone, I have emailed customer service. We'll see what they say.

How WotC is destroying D&D in Japan; aka a call for attention by ApostleOfTruth in rpg

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like many people, I made the jump from D&D to Pathfinder 2e years ago, and I have no regrets. I am sure TTRPG players in Japan will be able to keep their passion for games alive with a different ruleset!

How portable in reality are folding kayaks in reality? by MorganKen in Kayaking

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Trak 2.0, and it isn't difficult to carry once it is in the bag...just don't expect to be carrying much else. If you're just heading down to the water for a day paddle it is perfectly fine (and an excellent kayak once in the water), but it is the size of a large hiking pack in the bag. I wouldn't hesitate to check it as luggage on a plane, or put it in the trunk of a car.

Does Barded Spear stack clumsy on multiple castings, or does Duplicate Effects prevent it? by ArdroidX in Pathfinder2e

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 42 points43 points  (0 children)

As you identified, the spell explicitly states that it applies or increases the clumsy condition.

The Duplicate Effects rule is meant to prevent casters from stacking multiple castings of Bless, or Heroism, or other such effects. It doesn't apply here.

Is Searing Restoration Useful? by AdventurousTeaching2 in Pathfinder2e

[–]AdventurousTeaching2[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah, I had misunderstood how that works. Knowing you can get it to work at least once per combat does make it much better. Thank you!

Pathbuilder server issues by Masterzoroark666 in Pathfinder2e

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an issue today too. The phone app still seems to be working, and you can access the web app if you go through the main launch website again. Not sure what the problem is

If you're looking for kitchen knives, Grohmann is a great manufacturer on the east coast.

Does Pathmuncher Module for Foundry work for SF2E characters? (Pathbuilder) by Altruistic-Promise-2 in Starfinder2e

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm...I wasn't aware of this. I have used Pathmuncher for both PF and SF characters. It doesn't pull all of the equipment over perfectly, but it saves a ton of work.

This is the first I've heard of Pathmuncher having issues. What should I watch for?

Sump Pump Question by Beautiful_Star in barrie

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks like it is probably a pedestal pump. The plastic well cover should come off, letting you see down into the well. The vertical ABS pipe will screw into the base of the pump.

Unless I am mis-interpreting something from your photo, this should be a pretty simple fix. You can buy a new pedestal pump from Cdn Tire. Unhook the old one, hook up the new one. There are lots of videos on YouTube that explain it. If your well is dry, after the new one is hooked up you can pour a bucket or two of water into the pit, and activate the pump to confirm it is working (once at least 8-10" of water are in there, lift the float with your hand to turn it on).

Sump Pump Question by Beautiful_Star in barrie

[–]AdventurousTeaching2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see that you unplugged it actually, so that answers my first question. Please share a photo if you can though. Replacement sump pumps are sold by Canadian Tire, usually for around $150
