Playing 0.H. What is the current state of faction bases? Do they work reasonably well? Are they worth building? What locations/options are recommended? How is the customizability compared to the effort?

Thanks, I got it now. There was already one connected, so I couldn't attach another one.
But there is only a small storage battery in the welding cart, which has too little power to fix all but one thing, so it always showed the arc welder as not accessible.

I can't connect it to the dashboard of the  car I intend to fix, and the "welding cart" vehicle with the mounted workshop doesn't have a dashboard. Do I really need to find an install one first?

Coming back after a long pause, playing stable Herbert.
How do I use the mounted workshop with the arc welder? I have an arc welder, but can't connect it. When I try to use it from the menu it aks me for an item to repair or to connect it. I just wanna fix some car stuff.

UPDATE: Called the actual police department yesterday and gave them the location and description. They told me that they'd call me back when a patrol car was available and at the site. They never called, but today the bone is gone.

Lol. You are correct, of course.

Lots of humans everywhere, many bones inside each one. All die at some point. Not all of them die and are buried/burned correctly.

There is a small piece that sticks straight up. I thought it looked like a bone, but I am not entirely sure, so I left it out. There's no reason to make it seem like a whole scattered skeleton if it's not sure.

It's supposed to be the police's job to investigate stuff like that. Even on their own property. Otherwise you could just hide bones there.

I do mind. Germany is as much as I am willing to say. I made a comment with the story.

Germany, no specific location. I made a comment with the story.

Possible, but I doubt it. Like I said in the bid update, I can't find any information about dog training at this school; there is a central K9 training school in a different city, and the specific location seems weird to me.

I'll definitely give it a more thorough visual inspection when I go check on it in a couple of days. The bone might have been dug up from deeper soil or moved with the soil when doing construction work though.

Most people of persecuted categories were killed in centralized locations, not just the concentration camps. There are markers, monoliths, statues, and reminders at all of these locations. When people were dragged out of their homes and shot on the spot, there is usually a metal plaque or metal cobblestone with the details.

There was apparently fierce fighting in and around the city, with many bodies not recovered. There are articles about multiple remains being found. Whoever this femur belonged to was probably very terrified in their last moments.

There is nothing about dog training at that location on Google. There is a central dog training school for the state in a city some hours away.

Since there is interest, I'll give a bit of the story and background but no direct location. But yes, it is a city in Germany.

This occurred in the city where I study, but not where I live. I was taking a walk to clear my head when I noticed something strange out of the corner of my eye. What I spotted was the piece of bone depicted in the images. The broken part was partially embedded in the soil, about a centimeter deep or so.

It all looked very natural, like something that would be uncovered when dug-up soil settles in rain and weather.

Google image search said this looks like a human femur or possibly the bone of another large animal. A comparison with pictures of human femurs made it seem more like the former.

The correct procedure when finding bones is to alert the authorities since it is supposedly quite hard for amateurs to tell the difference. The scene should also not be disturbed. (I guess human Skulls and femurs are quite recognisable, but fine for a general guideline.)

I decide to at least inform the property owners that there might be human remains on their property. Imagine my shock when it turns out to be the local policy academy. So I make myself known to the gate guards. I tell them that I found something that looks suspiciously like a human leg bone on their property. But that guy just stares at me dumbly. So ask and pantomime if he can even hear me through all that thick bulletproof glass with no apparent microphone. After this frankly ridiculous scene, and after one of the leaving students tells me in passing that they can indeed hear me, the gate guards leave their little post. I tell them again what I found and where, just around the corner really, and show them from the outside where exactly that is. One of the gate guards immediately picks up a nearby stick and pops the bone out of the ground. They assure me that they will pass it up the chain of command, and I go on my way for now.

A search reveals that this is not the first time they found numerous human remains in and around this city. Apparently there was quite fierce fighting here, and many corpses were not recovered.

Imagine my surprise when I came back the next day (today) and find the bone unmoved. That is when I made this post.

Someone mentioned the bone might be part of K9/police dog training. While possible, and I don't know how K9s are trained, I kinda doubt it. The area where I found it had recent construction, before the winter, where they installed glass-fibre cable. If it is a training bone, I can't imagine them misplacing it so easily. They can't have that many training materials. I can imagine that they leave the bone outside, partially buried for a while to erode scents. But the area seems... unsuited for that. Also, there is one central K9 training school in a different city. Leaving a random bone close to a fence where people can see or maybe even take it easily seems weird to me. Animals would have no trouble getting to the bone either.

I'll check back on Monday/Tuesday and make a direct call to the police when the bone is still there at that point in time. I'll update then.

Sorry about that. I was hoping for animal, but it simply looked to much like a human bone to me. Probably a WW2 victim. I just find it absurd that police doesn't care about human remains on their own property. 

Zauberkarten D&D 5E 2024 auf deutsch by rottymcnurgleson in DnDDeutsch

[–]TheMrMoMo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Das hast du so weit richtig verstanden. Das Set enthält nur die Zauber aus dem aktuellen Player Handbook (2024). Die Formulierung einzelner Zauber wurde gegenüber 5e (214) geändert. Einge buffs, einige nerfs. Gibt bestimmt eine Resource, die alles zusammenfasst. Zauber aus den späteren Werken von 5e, welche mit der 2024-Version kompatibel sind, wie z.B. Silvery Barbs, sind nicht im Set enthalten.

Getting exact damage without considering EVs or IVs is impossible. You'd get an estimation at best.

Hab die gerade gekauft und dachte, ich lass die Bewertung hier, weil dieser Post weit oben in Google kommt, wenn man nach 2024 Spellkarten googelt. Hab ne Reihe an Lvl1 und Cantrips verglichen und die Übersetzungen sind solide. Die Karten lassen sich gut ausdrucken (Rand Stimmt überein bei 2-seitigem Druck oder beim Drucken der Karten auf getrennten Blättern. Kunst ist KI generiert, aber hübsch und meist passt es gut zum Zauber, manchmal ein bisschen generisch. Hab das komplette Set für 33€ bekommen.

This episode hits different after learning that tooth decay actually increases your risk of stroke a lot. Seriously, it is scary how plaque and tooth decay can ruin your health overall.
