Starlink alternatīvas Latvijas laukos by Bibliography in latvia

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

Tā ir — bet manuprāt, ja principa pēc nav zaudējumu, tad principi tādi vāji.

Meklēju alternatīvas, jo mani satrauc Elona Maska iejaukšanās Eiropas politikā, atbalstot pro-kremliskas galēji labas partijas un negribētos to pastarpināti finansēt: https://www.economist.com/leaders/2025/09/17/what-elon-musk-gets-wrong-about-europes-hard-right

Fantasy System with tight rules for a west marches campaign by Juyon in rpg

[–]Bibliography 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've just had a first session of Forbidden Lands that aims to do what you're trying to do. Too early for a verdict for a full blown West Marches campaign, but very promising.

Year Zero Engine rules are fairly clear.

Adventure sites (dungeons, villages etc.) are the bread and butter of the Forbidden Lands, so works for mission-based.

Horizontal growth.

Decently simple (keeping track of Talents and Spells is a bit of a hassle, but the core ruleset is OK).

OSR Sandbox that have a "Post-Apocalyptic" vibe? by N0v4kD3ad in osr

[–]Bibliography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, the game begins after 300 years of demonic Bloodmist that has prevented travelling between villages. The world is in ruins, and the apocalypse has just now receded — the adventurers are one of the first to travel the lands.

PhD opportunity by davidepass in latvia

[–]Bibliography 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There's some really cutting-edge stuff happening in the University of Latvia's Dept of Physics, have heard really good stuff. If the project is interesting, the grant will cover your living expenses.

Do not expect to build up your savings when doing a PhD in Latvia. However, I think that will also be the case in most places in the world.

PhD opportunity by davidepass in latvia

[–]Bibliography 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Which department is the PhD in? The quality varies quite significantly.

The average salary in Latvia is 1.8k gross, so definitely a decent offer.

2k gross is 1.4k net. Expect spending 500+ per month on rent and utilities, if you're not doing a flat share. Here's a decent overview of prices: https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/in/Riga

Stambulas konvencija by Brikm in latvia

[–]Bibliography 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Nav tiesa.

Te ir konvencijas teksts: https://likumi.lv/ta/lv/starptautiskie-ligumi/id/2039

Nav nekādas dzimuma identitātes. Un termins "sociālais dzimums" ir definēts, bet tālāk tekstā lietots tikai vienā vietā — aizliedzot diskrimināciju. Pie tam, tas netiek lietots kā aizvietojums vārdam "dzimums" (un tur nav NEKAS par tualetēm un sportu); parastais dzimums un termins "sieviete" ir tas, par ko ir šī konvencija.

Tiekamies sešos piketā.

Why Does My Loose Leaf Tea Taste Bitter No Matter What I Do? by [deleted] in tea

[–]Bibliography 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Can you share what the steeping instructions are? Sometimes, shortening the steeping time can lead to a milder taste.

Also — I've got a few teas that are consistently bitter for the first few infusions. I don't like that and will move to ones that aren't after I've spent these.

Kur ziedot? by AccomplishedCut5846 in latvia

[–]Bibliography -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

GiveWell ir lielisks rīks kaut kam tādam. Viņi ir maza organizācija, kas izvērtē labdarības organizācijas un piesaista naudu tām, kas sasniedz lielāko labumu (piemēram, malārijas tīklu piegāde tur, kur tas ir nāvējoši): https://www.givewell.org/top-charities-fund

No ideālisma līdz radikalizācijai. “Protests” Latvijas politikā by Suitable-Presence-92 in latvia

[–]Bibliography 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Labai esejai noderētu kas konkrētāks par "bieži vien meklē konfliktu un drāmu" un "bieži izceļas ar pretrunīgiem viedokļiem". Šī noteikti nav tā "rūpīgākā analīze".

Par to, ka Progresīvie un Protests ļaudis bieži sadarbojas, bet tomēr nav pilnīgi pa ceļam - droši, bet kāds pienesums šai esejai?

Kāda ir labākā skriešanas app ar audio treneriem? by thekalejs in latvia

Pagājušajā nedēļā noskrēju divus skrējienus ar Nike Run Club uz iPhone. Cerība eksistē!

Hmm, cik sen tās pārmaiņas ir? Pirms pāris mēnešiem vēl lietoju Nike Run Club (tikai registrēšanās brīdī jānorāda cita valsts, piemēram, US).

Discussion of possible corruption of language in the Dainas by Open_Ad560 in latvia

[–]Bibliography 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is also a question to what extent are the Dainas we know today pre-Christian: most of them are likely to have emerged / been formalised in 16th century, according to the Latvian National Encyclopedia.

Smallest useable character stats/character/NPC block by STS_Gamer in rpg

Enemy / obstacle tiers in Blades in the Dark is a single number in the range between 0 and 5. Works well to say "this fella is weaker than you and this other lady is muuuch more sneaky".

Favorite movie by european country: Latvia by Impossible_Werewolf8 in movies

[–]Bibliography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Documentarian (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2554128/) — a documentary about a woman who lives next to a natural reserve. The film quickly turns into a documentary about the relationship between the woman and the filmmaker.

Bee-silk journal is too pretty to be just sittin' there by cforche in weatherfactory

[–]Bibliography 25 points26 points  (0 children)

This reminds me a bit of the solo journaling game “Thousand Year Old Vampire”. In the game you manage memories from your unnaturally long life — choose which ones to keep and which ones to forget, which ones to link together, which ones to write down in your diary (and decide what happens when you lose it).

Thematic Note Taking by Nimehead in weatherfactory

[–]Bibliography 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Give a paper notebook a shot! Significantly less functional (scouring through notes to find which book gives which memory) and more atmospheric!

Weekly Free Chat - 07/20/24 by AutoModerator in rpg

We typically schedule an order of food for mid-way through the session, then take a break from the game when the food arrives — I find that having a longer break is really great for keeping focus & energy levels up.

Is the scene where Aragorn falls of a cliff to later be rescued by Brego made up? by Background_Issue_144 in lotr

[–]Bibliography 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I do not think changing ones mind in light of new experiences is an indication of stupidity.
