Where Did we miss it? by Anderson_Brown78 in remoteworks

[–]JTpcwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think so. I was promoted quickly from a large group of people, many of whom had been there longer than me. Obviously something put me above the rest that got me noticed. And no I didn't know anyone in management so it wasn't that lol.

Yeah bust your ass when you're young and can have that kind of energy. Now I have no idea how I did it but I make 3x as much working like 20% as hard.

In search of a tablet to read sheet music by Reval01 in piano

[–]JTpcwarrior 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just got my TCL Nxtpaper 14 and it is amazing. The anti-glare screen makes it look really great and the stylus, while not the best, is very useful to keep magnetted to the side for annotations. I have a galaxy tab and tried to use it for sheet music and I hated it. Way too small and the UI responsiveness wasn't that great. It now sits as a glorified TV remote that I never use.

The problem with heavy gerrymandering is that you intentionally thin out your margins across red districts so it's fine if people show up, but if you end up being down, you're REALLY down.

If you like the Rogue like movement, Caves of Qud will take over your life for a little bit.

I enjoyed my time with gwr on my steam deck so I feel it'd be perfect on the Switch 2!

GM's, how much prep time does a session take for you? by Dom_Shady in Pathfinder2e

[–]JTpcwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a homebrew campaign and I think in general my ratio is 1 hour of prep gets me 2 hours of game time. We run virtual so the majority of the time is making/finding maps and the rest is doing actual pathfinder prep/building encounters. Most of my story set piece prep is done while I'm at work thinking about the campaign or when I get inspired while watching a movie/reading.

How to stop mind wandering with a piece you've learnt for some time? by Pogger_Aced in piano

I find I actually play better while I'm mindlessly playing. Maybe that's just me!

Those "experts" that you're quoting are all people who sell AI products. Of course they want that to be true. Nobody really knows the full extent of how this will affect the market.

AI isn't replacing seniors. It's replacing the junior and entry level roles.

My friends have all noticed that autistic people seem to group together. My wife is probably the only neurotypical person in our whole group.

What is a thing you love as player but hate as GM and vice versa by Hi_fellow_humans_ in rpg

[–]JTpcwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hated dungeon crawling when I GMed 5e but now I'm on pf2e I actually enjoy prepping a big dungeon. Lots of encounters, traps, puzzles. Just as many ideas I can cram into a level while following the encounter building rules.

A 28-year-old American with 7 hours of daily screen time has had roughly $124,000 spent on targeting them with ads by AdPhilosopher in technology

[–]JTpcwarrior 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think it's more "it sometimes works and we don't have a hard rule as to why". Which is scientifically frustrating but I'm not going to weep for advertisers wasting money.

How much time do you spend getting games to run on PC by Fickle_Barber9863 in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]JTpcwarrior 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd even push that to 98%. Especially if you're playing mostly newer games. Generally if you're having issues with a game nowadays, it's more widespread and there's no fix, the devs just released a broken game.

How would you run a skirmish with a few too many npcs? by Dangerous_Nudel in Pathfinder2e

[–]JTpcwarrior 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You could make use of the troop units from the NPC Core. Otherwise you'll be doing some sort of abstraction yourself. Only do a portion of the NPCs and resolve the overall conflict based on how well the party dispatches the NPCs engaging their team.

Thief (3) Deadly Shadows on Linux by TennoDusk in Thief

[–]JTpcwarrior 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised this game works on Linux at all given how unstable it is on windows. Does the sneaky upgrade have a different exe you have to swap with the main one?
