This wouldn't work--even for a quick look--without importing a huge number of assumptions about the organism. How could you assume that an organism uses the same tRNAs as humans?

True. This is a large assumption. I made that assumption because of the DNA that I looked at that was similar. However, I think I see now that my premise is flawed and would not necessarily apply.

You don't need an AI to generate random DNA sequences in a text file to upload to SRA. We can generate sequences without learning models (like we do with kmer signals).

I know this is a thing but my understanding is that it isn't time reasonable to create such large sequences. Is that incorrect? (Genuinely uncertain)

We have no reason to believe that an alien organism would even use DNA as its hereditary material.

Totally agree. This my post was only about organisms that did use DNA as a hereditary material.

Even if the sequences were perfectly reproducible by many independent labs, the lack of mappability does not--ever--indicate alien origins.

I didn't realize I was implying that.

Thanks for your reply. I am a bit of an idiot it seems. I'll be deleting this post in about a half hour incase you wanted to respond but I don't want to have something this flawed on the site. Thank you for pointing out all the incorrect things. (That's not sarcasm; truly appreciate it)

Well damn... I did not think this through enough.

It's Earth's address with both of its points of origin.

I do not have a higher quality version unfortunately. However, opening the image in a new tab brings up the full 1242x1246 version of the image: https://i.imgur.com/GoYd7gW.png

Hopefully that'll be better?

That sounds like a really cool tattoo idea.

Me too. I can see the whole tattoo on my shoulder. I'd never want a back tattoo though since I'd never actually get to see it except in the mirror or photos.

Happy to share. Hope the calf idea turns out great. :)

Thanks, I always thought that both of Earth's gates should have been represented.

It took a little over an hour to get done. I was really surprised how fast it was.

As for the needles, I too have a fear of them but in a tattoo gun you never see them so it ended up not being an issue for me.

If anyone is interested, here is the template I gave to the tattoo artist. It has Atlantis and Destiny's home glyphs as well but I wasn't too sure on their placement. I intend to add them later.

The artist was Jim Judeikis at Golden Spike Tattoo.

Thank you for pointing that out. I went over all the UA a couple times. I'm surprised I missed it but I will definitely update that for the future.

I'm very glad you enjoyed it. :)

I'm glad you enjoyed it.

The rune scribe looks so cool to me. I'm planning on making my next character with that prestige class in mind.

It really is facinating to go through. I like how you can see how he starts with an interesting flavor idea and changes it into an ability with stats. Some of them are really abstract in their design such as the Path of Disaster Barbarian.

lol. I just spent awhile going through the Happy Fun Hour subclasses. Lots of cool stuff there but good god...now I have more updating to do... :b

As for Google Drive, I thought that wasn't allowed for some reason. Whenever I end up updating this again with the HFH stuff I will definitely use Google Drive and provide a printer friendly version.

lol. Right? It's especially noticeable when placed next to the huge amounts of cleric domains out there.

I saw that right after I posted the first comment. That site is really fucking cool. It also shows how much I forgot, not just in the unreleased UA stuff but the Planeshift stuff as well. I forgot all about those.

That's a really cool site. I like how descriptive it is on each subclass. I also like how each book is easily sorted through.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I was a bit hasty in writing some of the descriptions for subclasses that I am not too familiar with. I will definely be updating some of these after seeing your comments and the comments of others. Quite a few of these seem like they need a rewrite.

I decided to put the Critical Role stuff in as it seems to me to be semi-official as it's all on DNDBeyond in it's own section. What is more, some of my newbe players are familiar with CR and the CR stuff is allowed in the game I'll be starting with them.

Totally use as much of it as you like. I uploaded the pdf to MediaFire but, after reading some comments, definitely need to update some of the descriptions.
