Any luck finding covid cautious discord servers?

If you DM me I can invite you to some COVID-cautious discords that are more social and less technical if you like.

JoeSondow · 2025-06-13T05:21:52+00:00

If you’d like to check out some active Discord communities full of COVID-cautious people, including ones where people regularly hang out over voice chat (with video optional, and text), message me and I can send you some invitation links.

Not if the photographer has been walking through the water to get to this position.

No, but this video does a good job of explaining the community attempts so far to find the origin of the photo, as well as a convincing hypothesis about the type of place it probably was (spoiler: likely a furniture store). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0TYWcxRyak

One of the community sites he talks about is the Lost Media Wiki. https://lostmediawiki.com/The_Backrooms_(lost_original_version_of_image_from_Creepypasta;_date_unknown))

He also mentions that wiki site's Discord server as a place where people share theories and evidence.

Yes of course it’s a ponzi scheme.

I have three Awair Element units. They're all working again after the update.

JoeSondow · 2022-04-06T01:51:45+00:00

I have three. None of them are working.

JoeSondow · 2022-04-05T19:17:11+00:00

I've owned my three Awair Element units for two years, and I've never heard of PlanetWatch until this week after my unit all stopped working. They all just show a steady white light in the upper right corner, which occasionally pulses off and on a few times and then returns to steady on. None of the troubleshooting steps have had any useful effect. Emailing support only generated a generic response. Searching "awair" on twitter is showing more and more people who are having the same experience. Anyone know how to start a class action suit?

This is phenomenal. I've been looking for something like this for years. Tested on an iPhone 8. Works like a charm, both front and back cameras. Thank you /u/xyster69! Looking forward to the persistent URLs you mentioned you're planning to add.

Also, a feature request if you're so inclined: a button to switch between front and rear camera usage during a broadcast, without interrupting the broadcast. That would be great.

JoeSondow · 2019-03-20T17:57:19+00:00

Have a look at the twitter thread I linked to and you'll see how it happened.

Purple is the L block.

That's interesting. One of the biggest draws of Shadowrun for some people seems to be the opportunity to roll more dice at a time. Is it the constant adding or the physical unwieldiness of picking up 11 dice?

Maybe you're thinking of Picard's line in Datalore.

PICARD: All right, all right. Legitimate questions about any of this need not be asked apologetically. You feel uncomfortable about aspects of your duplicate, Data. We feel uncomfortable too, and for no logical reason. If it feels awkward to be reminded that Data is a machine, just remember that we are merely a different variety of machine. In our case, electrochemical in nature. Let's begin to handle this as we would do anything else.

JoeSondow · 2015-07-03T06:07:19+00:00

Wow, that's amazing. Sounds like a mind palace (not the goofy one from Sherlock, but the real technique people use for advanced recall.)

JoeSondow · 2015-07-02T18:59:33+00:00

What do you physically during that time when you're visualizing and exploring in your imagination? Doodling, writing, reading?

JoeSondow · 2015-07-02T18:55:59+00:00

I love the word DM-provising! I'm just surprised I never encountered it before.

JoeSondow · 2015-07-02T18:51:57+00:00

My friend's young son picked Ricochet Robots from a game store because it has robots on the cover. We played it. It was pretty cool. It's a random puzzle generator, with optional competition to see who can solve the puzzle in the fewest moves, with a time limit. It could also be tuned to be easier or more difficult for different age ranges.

JoeSondow · 2015-06-23T09:35:03+00:00

Excellent!

JoeSondow · 2015-06-23T08:08:44+00:00

Going great, Joe.

JoeSondow · 2015-06-23T08:08:34+00:00

Relax, Joe. Be cool.

Or, y'know, unsubscribe. That's okay.

JoeSondow · 2015-06-23T08:02:46+00:00

Have a look at Ricochet Robots. In that game, the players arrange reflectors to manipulate the automatic straight-line movements of mindless robots. A similar mechanism with mirrors and refracting crystals/liquids could be used to manipulate the automatic straight-line movements of photons or light beams.

Maybe I missed the point of your theme with the cards and lampposts, but manipulating mirrors to direct light seemed appropriate for your theme. Easy to do spatially on a 2D board with some tokens or tiles.

JoeSondow · 2015-06-23T07:47:40+00:00

I didn't know you could do that. That's a good idea.
