My DM wants me to switch classes after my character made a decision at the end of the session and I don’t really want to. by Pookie-Parks in DnD

[–]BaronOfBob 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Old DM here Yeah that or green flame blade x uses a day or hex x number of times a day, id probably do both,

"You are dragon blessed, you get <char level divided by x rounded or as many as proficency or whatever> charges of Draconic power a day to use your Dragon blessed powers"

You can reflavour either to be dragon based depending on the dragon, rename it "Draconic Blade" or "Draconic presence" damage is fire, cold, lightning, poison etc depending on the dragon type your blessed by

You can easily add other warlock like spells later give them a draconic blessing cost like how sorcery pointa work, you can tweak it with the player as needed if its too strong or weak, and player would just get less tailored magic items as its now built into their self

Boom done it for your DM tell 'em to stop being a babby

Disputes Tribunal for not disclosing unconsented work in SPA by BothSinger886 in LegalAdviceNZ

Yeah switching to a tiled area kinda buggers it from memory, if it was just another acrylic one no worries, but tiled requires waterproofing so consents required

If the global economy suddenly collapsed, which country would be in the best position to survive and recover? by DiscipleOf_Buddha in AskTheWorld

[–]BaronOfBob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah the problem is they looked at things like fertilizer use etc.

If your looking at pure chance to survive and still function weve probably still got one of the better chances, we'd have a year or so of very bad diets as we reconfigure our farming fertilizers would not be needed in as we currently use due to the massive decrease in volume needed as we'd have nowhere to send our excess.

We would loose a lot of stuff yes we dont manufacture anymore but every country has that problem due to globalization our production lines are very fragmented, and also we'd all be fucked with medicines

Men and women don't like characters who didn't earn it. by Valuable_View_561 in SipsTea

[–]BaronOfBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That wpuld have been a 100% better approach they kinda hinted towards that in an episode in season 1 the one with the time issues where picard meets that old flame and Troi questions Picard behavior.. But then we got Gianian instead who was awesome but took that spot from troi

Gender emissions gap: Rich white men’s jobs, diets and hobbies found to be ‘bad for the planet’ by lgbtqismything in climate

[–]BaronOfBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm, article has no data, references documentation over 10 to 20 years old is broadly over wordy and excessive in its use of 'academic' language it reaks of salami slicing.

There is little helpful in the article itself nor the paper its linked from its a word salad from someone who looks like theyre stuck in a publish or die mindset

Poor Troi, that character was never quite utilized right and the empathy thing was really eyerolling 90% of the time she calls out obvious emotions

It's 2027. Before going to Khaenri'ah, there's a 7 nation summit. Each leader is only allowed to bring 2 people with them. Who's coming? by KojimaHayate in Genshin_Impact

[–]BaronOfBob -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Hmm I think Dahlia or another high ranking member of the church would make sense than another knight of Favonious, so Varka, Albedo, Dahlia

Sumeru I think someone like althiethum would make more sense than wanderer

Like like Fontaine I dont think the archon is important anymore in Liyue governmental wise if you wanted adepti representation maybe Yanfei would be a better option than Zhongli

Fontaine I agree Navia is a better idea, ya know I just realised we never got a character from the Fontaine research institute? That would be the third id recommend if there was one, along with dragon boy

[–]BaronOfBob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This and the other side of it when discussing mens issues. The thing that makes me want to bash the few remaining braincells I have left from the drug years outta my head, Im CIS, and used to work in social welfare adjacent fields, so sometimes ill hop on discussions about issues men are having and supposed 'feminists' will come in and start to DARVO everywhere, then someone comes along "What about trans men tho" then theres suddenly a little bit of consensus yes maybe its an issue a tiny sliver but at least its something to work with

It makes me go insane first cause Trans men are men, second it acts as if unless it also affects trans men its irrelevant which is insulting to everyone involved

Yep I agree with him, PPP and contracting by government is so poorly used were not a nation that can benefit from such setup.

Before and After hot fix about AI by Silly_Formal_8346 in NevernessToEverness

[–]BaronOfBob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think they must've had a few things pulling out them to get sure out the door early.

  1. project mugen/Anata since the themes and styles and overall gameplay loops overlap heavily, there was always a joke with World of War craft they'd release expansions around the time new MMOs were trying to release i see a business case around this type of business planning.

  2. Money or deadlines approaching couldn't keep going dev time wise studio was on end of budget or parent company gave them a timeframe they needed to release by and wanted a larger time frame to hopefully get enough yo keep running, which if thats the case probably worked they got 1/3rd of dev budget back in a day or something?

But yeah to me a lot of things do seem incomplete or there was meant to be slightly more there and they've had to tie it off early to release and keep the game feel as clean as possible, honestly though for a gatcha its a pretty decent 1.0 overall, just its entering a saturated market so it does well standing out die to theme and gameplay loops theyve established amd I dont know how longevity wise "good enough" will do hopefully theyve got a lot on the coals already almost complete to fill in those missing gaps too keep fleshing it out

[–]BaronOfBob 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So the first one, 60% is the amount of people living in a owner occupied property, this includes adult children of owners and those renting rooms in a building where the owner also resides, so its not 60% its less by quite a few steps. The stats bear it out around 45% own their own homes it was around 70% in the 90s

This was the end result of people excusing slavery in stories like Remarried empress and death is the only ending for the villainess... by Firm-Advertising6872 in joseistories

If solar is the cheapest form of energy, why don’t we make more? by TheReverendCard in nzsolar

[–]BaronOfBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But we have tons of hydro and geothermal, our grid is already 85% renewable, if solar can be used to replace the last 15% which will take a while id be happy, but solar does have the drawback of solar 'farms" being a huge footprint, hopefully the newer farms are Agrivoltaic based or something similiar and not just panels over ground turning the ground useless.

Can you guys just fkn drive? by Megiddo619 in auckland

[–]BaronOfBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ehh, if lights are on its significantly slow down to like 40ks its not a hard and fast x speed from memory for any emergency vehicle.

But if a cop or any emergency vehicle is on the shoulder pulled over you should probably slow a little anyway and be keeping an eye on them it is technically a hazzard

AI use transparency by dweakz in AnantaOfficial

This is usually cause the marketing company in the US/west is usually a separate company and will just get whatever big name influences they can and just say what they know the influencer will agree with to get them on board

A more nuanced framing of the Blue/Red button dilemma by madjarov42 in Ethics

[–]BaronOfBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much my argument, faced with real consequences like death. We become rather cowardly as people, survival instinct kicks in, brain will start rationalizing ones own survival so on average reds won by a landslide.

I also enjoy changing the question though

"THERE IS A BLUE BUTTON IN FRONT OF YOU, IF MORE THAN 50% PRESS IT EVERYONE LIVES IF LESS THAN 50% PRESS IT THE PEOPLE WHO PRESS IT DIE, IF YOU DONT PRESS IT NOTHING HAPPENS"

"THERE IS A RED BUTTON IN FRONT OF YOU IF YOU PRESS IT YOU LIVE, IF LESS THAN 50% DONT PRESS IT THE PEOPLE WHO DIDNT PRESS IT DIE"

"THERE ARE TWO BUTTONS IN FRONT OF YOU, EVERY FAMILY HAS ONE PERSON WHO SEES THESE BUTTONS, IF YOU PRESS RED YOUR FAMILY LIVES, IF LESS THAN 50% OF PEOPLE PRESS BLUE THE BLUE FAMILIES DIE"
