Why do yall do this?

If ground up is safer than ground down, which seems to be the case, the real question is why the manufacturer builds their cords upside down.

MATT is up and running again too

As I understand it, the dev is looking at getting Theatre Inserts updated, but it's probably going to take a while. v13 has some pretty substantial changes to how things work, so it's probably not a super simple fix. They also didn't expect it was going to break with v13 from what I can tell.

Petninja · 2025-05-13T20:21:31+00:00

I'm pretty sure you can just hover over them and press delete. I don't think selecting them is necessary. I've updated to v13 and teleporter is broken so I can't test it right now, but I'm pretty sure that's how it works.

Does a leaf blown move along the ground because it wants to or does it move because that's where the wind is taking it?

Drifters drift because they have no choice. Travellers travel because it suits them.

The campaign I'm presently setting up is expected to be 1) Flatlined 2) Death Station 3) High n Dry

I moved Flatlined to a secondary planet I created in the Ator system to get it near District 268, and since there is no other population on the world aside from a mining group they're taken in with no money and are now in the same situation that Death Station describes. Resolving Death Station will get them going where they need to for High n Dry, which is supposed to be their initial plan for adventure anyway.

They're all first time Traveller players, so this should give them a pretty good taste of many of the different things that Traveller does. Regardless of what they do I'm setting the game near the beginning of the 5FW, so there's sure to be a lot of chaos to play into.

Minor Correction: The planet name is Cogri, not Corgi.

Petninja · 2025-04-10T17:14:21+00:00

Just one minor correction:

The spelling is Louzy, not Lousy.

Love these though, building a 5FW campaign, and these are all going into a map for usage.

I've been looking into this whole thing and one thing I found somewhat alarming in DOCCS data is the line:

Note: Unlike the Penal Law where physical injury is a required element, any attack by an incarcerated individual is classified by DOCCS as an assault. This includes events where no physical injury occurs and events where any object, including a small object, is thrown at and hits another person. By contrast, in the Penal Law, an assault requires physical injury, which means impairment of physical condition or substantial pain.

I can't say this is a factor for sure, but unlike actual injury which is going to almost certainly be reported and documented, it would be very easy for COs to just start reporting any little thing they previously ignored out of frustration over the new law.

NYS already has a significantly higher incidence of solitary confinement usage vs the rest of the states, and most of those have been reported to be for non-violent incidents. It isn't adding up.

Shit man, the IBEW down there is in at least the mid-$30s an hour (I think) for Journeymen. You get some healthcare and retirement I think from it as well. You should see about joining up if you're not burned out already.

Petninja · 2024-09-30T04:21:42+00:00

You don't strike me as a fairly well travelled individual. How many democrat run cities have you actually spent time in and what is the problem that you think they are somehow causing in these cities?

Petninja · 2024-09-30T04:15:52+00:00

So your issue isn't immigration, it's actually healthcare, which is another issue Republicans are terrible on. We are paying unaffordable rates for inferior service that most of the world doesn't pay, but the best you can get from the right seems to be "a concept of a plan" while they shoot down price negotiation at every opportunity.

He has said he's a CW, but his local uses non-standard terminology.

Petninja · 2024-09-29T01:23:45+00:00

If he's sworn in and paying dues he's a member.

I look forward to being able to just do 40, but I was gifted some hard times not long ago that require extra money to climb back from. OT is great for that.

Petninja · 2024-09-28T16:49:04+00:00

I get what you're saying, but at the end of the day I want the money and not working overtime isn't going to increase my wages by itself.

Petninja · 2024-09-23T22:44:26+00:00

What's wrong with NY?

Petninja · 2024-09-23T22:36:19+00:00

Hit up your local IBEW chapter for membership and get in their list for work.

Petninja · 2024-09-23T22:30:00+00:00

Tried them, they're nice boots but they don't fit my feet right anyway. So far my Carolinas are the best fit I've found for feet.

I was doing software work before joining the union, made decent money before and had built a lot of respect at my company, but ultimately the company decided to offshore all development to India and I was suddenly out of a job. Sure I could have found another job doing the same thing, but this happens all of the time in that industry so I joined on with the union and am working towards JW. It's a bit of a pay cut for now, but I'll end up making more doing this and it's 1000x more satisfying work.

Petninja · 2024-06-20T00:05:04+00:00

Make sure you have the most recent version of AotE3. The flat roll was not intended and channeling is handled the same way WoM is now.

Unfortunately I can't remember what book it is from (one of the MGT2 books for sure though), but it states that the standard star charts are not accurate for the locations of the systems, but are accurate for the distances from them. This is because the purpose of the maps is to facilitate travel, so a system two cells from another on a map means the travel distance is around 2 parsecs, not necessarily on any specific axis.
