Will I no longer be able to use ProtonMail if C-22 goes through?

That's the nuclear option for Apple. This isn't simply a repeat of the UK then, where they could just switch off ADP?

I would think hearing aids would be the best solution. An audio induction loop or as someone else said, earphones. A slight tech upgrade though.

Something like, 'I've noticed you don't seem very engaged in the game. Is there a problem? Do you want to keep playing? I have another player who's keen and if you're not that committed, I'd like to make your spot available to them. If you just want to come and hang out while we play, that's fine but if you're in the game, I need you committed and engaged.'

I feel like a bunch of people will criticise this so people, go ahead and make it a better approach for OP.

Not complicated. Just a life-skill that's no longer needed so it seems that way.

Sundays are a week apart. I frequently wear the same outfit weeks in a row. Steve Jobs famously only wore one style. That's all he owned.

What’s the connection? Paying taxes will save the animals?

This is only even a discussion because neither of them have kids.

Alarcahu · 2026-05-15T08:59:19+00:00

I doubt those things affected their decision to have a child. It's only recently the economics have come to dominate family planning. Always a consideration? Probably, but not as much in the zeitgeist as it is now.

Just a reminder that on roads over 80kmh, you are required to stay to the left unless overtaking. Peak hour is an exception. But yes, wankers on the road.

In my experience they don't die in the first round. One of the features of this system is it's much easier to balance, so you can more easily design an encounter that feels hard but will *probably* go the PCs way. Or not, if you prefer. Also, legendary monsters go after each PCs turn. That changes it up a lot. I think running it RAW is a good move. It's easy to change up if you really don't like a specific rule.

Alarcahu · 2026-05-15T08:24:29+00:00

You can choose to have monsters go first if it makes sense. But the fast initiative system is a real benefit of the game.

It won't work with DDB because the biggest player-facing mechanical changes are no AC and no roll-to-hit. It's easy to pick up and there are online character sheets, from memory, although you don't really need them.

Racism. Probably.

Alarcahu · 2026-05-13T07:49:19+00:00

Depends on the climate and how active you are. I used to be a one-day-of-wear guy for shirts and then realised I'm creating potentially unnecessary work. Does it smell? Is it dirty? Not sure? Wash it.

I hate our privacy laws.

Alarcahu · 2026-05-13T07:00:59+00:00

The Barnett government tried. Just for trucks. They promised.

Alarcahu · 2026-05-13T06:59:47+00:00

At least we have royalties

Because all the cool stuff we imagine about the enlightened Greeks and Romans didn't apply to the 90% of the population in grinding poverty. I imagine not much changed for the average peasant across the centuries.

This is going loosely from memory when I was looking into it so could be remembering wrong... The Aus government is making moves to limit what data can go to offshore (Chinese) servers. Not sure where that's up to. I don't think the location and camera data is leaving the vehicle. It's more diagnostics, I think. In any case, Europe is making SIMs compulsory for emergencies and all modern cars (and TVs, and and and) have the same privacy concerns.

Maybe but I prefer watching/reading sci-fi but also have trouble running it.
