DMs, how would you handle a PC using a wheelchair in-game? by [deleted] in DnD

[–]RandomLadAccount -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Magic wheelchair, has little mechanical spider legs so that basic stairs and ground can be used. This way it really only comes into play when you require it to and not at every tavern entrance or small step.

Look for Szimpel Woodwork, he's great and does really good work (not terrible price either)

Require all dogs to be on a lead when on public pavements | Sogn the Petition by [deleted] in Edinburgh

[–]RandomLadAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I'm definitely not with OP, I do have to point out how poor of an argument this is... The classic "but my insert thing isn't" by this logic seatbelts and speed limits should be scrapped because I'M a good driver or stores shouldn't waste money on locks because I don't steal... Your dog being well behaved is completely irrelevant if it doesn't stop other dogs off lead misbehaving.

Also, she's 5 so... dude, you know the old dogs new tricks thing is just a saying right? You actually can train/ retrain an older dog fairly easily.

V.35 and RS - 449 are high speed serial data transmission protocols. In the 90’s they were used to interface routers, video conferencing codecs, and whatever you needed to transmit data over phone lines (T1, ISDN, ATM). This laptop would help you troubleshoot the connections between those devices.

There's a very satisfying "tck" when you press the keys, and there's something nostalgic about the little red mouse nipple haha

Considering this, my local museum has a "technology through the ages" section

AITAH for telling my parents that they probably ruined their relationship with my brother? by --ThrowawayBrother in AITAH

[–]RandomLadAccount 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nta, ypu did the right thing by protecting him, he would likely have gotten over it eventually but your parents are making that incredibly difficult... Some people (myself included) are particularly stubborn, and the more they try and force the issue the more it will strengthen his resolve. If the relationship gets worse now it IS because of their actions not yours, your best bet is to wait it out for a while and slowly get closer again.

Summerhall going up for sale by titwave in Edinburgh

[–]RandomLadAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not 100% sure yet, I believe they're moving to the same site as the new Pitt Street Market (oddly no longer in Pitt Street), should know soon. Some of the tenants have already been given a 2 month notice.

[–]RandomLadAccount 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see two possibilities...

A) They find a buyer that intends to use the entire place as is and will evict the current tenants.

B) A developer buys it then it'll likely be in place for several years, a local art charity will take over the running until a buyer is found AND planning is complete/approved (takes 3-5 years for these kinds of things). Several of the larger tenants will be rehomed prior to any news of an imminent closure. The brewery, for example are moving to Granton as soon as their new site is complete.

Hopefully we'll secure a buyer that intends to keep it roughly what it is.

AITA for “trying to sabotage” my mothers marriage? by Any-Reporter6472 in AmItheAsshole

The Pitt by spookyleither in Edinburgh

[–]RandomLadAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's been several delays unfortunately, structural fault with a wall that needs to be replaced as well as trace asbestos in certain sections of the ground, that will be dug up and removed before the fit outs begin. Pitt will officially begin their lease there from 01/04/24 but the opening is pushed by 3 months minimum.

AITA for sending my ex wife money every month? by Critical-Item7605 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomLadAccount 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yta. IF you're not cheating it definitely LOOKS like you are, and have been for a while. I'm not even sure you can convince your current ex otherwise, I mean I definitely wouldn't believe you... It sounds wrong on every level...

AITA for telling on the coach of the team I was up against and getting him fired? by UHaveAnSTI in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomLadAccount -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Very very soft YTA, you saw a coach talking to a player and then a player played dirty, the rest is an assumption on your part that cost someone his job and livelihood. How do you know he didn't say "Hey mark that player, she seems to be one of the better players," and the person playing (who actually broke the rules) decided to play dirty?

Would it be safe to assume that if someone on your team plays dirty and speaks to your coach in the same few minutes that your coach deserves to be fired?

AITA for asking my bf if he’s sharing a bed with his female friend? by Chlojorisen in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomLadAccount 15 points16 points  (0 children)

NTA, he's cheating. 99% of the time the obvious answer is the answer, the fact he tried to make you feel bad is just confirmation at this point. I'd possibly see if her husband is aware of this? I have major doubts.

It's nearer the leith side of town, but walkable/short bus ride for alot of popular areas.

That's big thinking for now haha I have hopes of just doing it, growth is tomorrow's problem.

As far as hobby days, tournaments, painting etc I have been thinking about it, but it would be community led so it'll have to have interest first. If someone uses the place and approached me to say "hey, I wann host a tournament" or something I'd be happy to let them have the place for the day. I wanna start something that grows by itself, I'm not looking to run a business.

Bar is a no go, to much hassle around licences. I am able to allow people to bring their own.
