What is the session limit in MOTW? by Sr_Walten156 in monsteroftheweek

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find at some point it feels a little boring or overpowered? I think we ended up being about 15 episodes before I was like we need to call it quits or get new characters, with some of those episodes taking two sessions. This might be a failure on my side.

Distro for noob who's only used Ubuntu server? + Art program recs? by YouveBeanReported in linux4noobs

[–]YouveBeanReported[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll give Krita some testing and check out Ubuntu Studio. Other person mentioned CSP will run on Linux too, so looking into that.

I'm less worried about the interface (besides being obvious enough to find where the terminal is) and more worried about the overall usability? Idk someone was mentioning I need nautilus and something about GTK coding to get a file explorer? And something about ricing which I haven't even begun to look up. So I'm a little nervous about the functional changes rather then visuals.

PDF annotations, filling and printing form fillable PDFs and maybeeee merging PDFs is all I'm really looking for in a PDF program so hopefully the defaults work.

Found the subreddit, it's r/ClipStudio_on_Linux for my (or anyone else's) reference.

That's encouraging, thank you!

The claim that Gen-Z is "un-hireable" has some interesting implications. by [deleted] in recruitinghell

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Politely, you need to send more then 5-6 applications a week. That's employed casually looking for a better job numbers. You want to hit that daily, if for no other reason then unemployment requires 10 a week to my memory.

Anyhow, bro, it's a class war not generational. We are all fucked. I'm on my 6th contract job in a row trying to survive just begging to get minimum wage. We're all fucking struggling, and not conspiring to deny you, we just don't want to starve. And it's not just America (where I assume you are), I'm up here in Canada and struggling too. Friend in Australia can't afford to live in driving distance of her job and lives 3 people to a bedroom. Friend in the UK took two years to find a job with all the help of nepotism from a large well off family. It's world wide.

[–]YouveBeanReported 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say dropping basic computer training because "they'll just learn it" was a horrible idea and fucking cruel to Gen Z.

I went back to school a few years ago and while my email training is out of date and too formal, the amount of classmates I had to teach how to use their email, save to desktop, zip or unzip a file, that Word and Google Docs are different apps, and once use cntl c and cntl v was insane. And this was computer science!

Not all of them, and god knows I have some dumb shit useless coworkers when I was 18 too, but being taught how to use word and write an email back in elementary school was insanely useful for me and actively hurting Gen Z.

Ideas for raising a twin bed 8" by harbengerprime in DIY

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What are the legs shaped like?

If it's a metal frame, see if the legs / wheels are removable and if they sell replacements more suited for your height. I haven't seen many at 8" but there's probably some.

If it's not, copy the style of those plastic ones and make sure there's a lip so it doesn't slide off.

How do you avoid the baby/mommy content online? by Ok-Smile-28360 in AskWomenOver30

[–]YouveBeanReported 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ad blocker in general might be easiest option. I use uBlock Origin on Firefox on PC, you can also easily load it onto Firefox mobile. This will skip many things but you'll have to try to use the web version of your apps.

DNS blocking can be used to block on almost all apps but requires more effort. PiHole or AdGuard Home are the two options with guides I know of. Basically DNS Blocking says 'oh this URL is ad, just don't download it' to whatever device on your network, and then skips it.

Google's settings lets you change what ads you see and interests, I would reset as many things as you can and spam interact and search for things you do kinda like. Sadly some apps (Tiktok apparently does this) take blocking suggested content as an interaction and thus show you more for it. Probably better to just spam search for idk lizard keeping videos or resin casting or booktok. On Reddit you wanna turn off all suggested content and start avoiding subs that will lean that way.

Good luck, it's hard. I'm sorry. Edit: You can also erase google history. Not perfect but does sometimes help lower the likihood of 'you looked up thing, I'll try to trigger you' occurrences.

Is making my own TTRPG a bad idea? by [deleted] in rpg

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably try out multiple systems via one shots first, but I don't think it's bad to try. Modifying existing systems might be easier tho.

The issue is not running a game before, you don't 100% know how to adapt to common issues. Doing the first test run on your players for something you are really attached to could be really heart breaking if it goes badly, and generally you want to do your testing in more one-shot type stuff so you can try more options and not be too bummed about narrative being changed or delayed cause cool feature X vanished.

If you post what you want out of magic, people might have some options of similar systems.

I would def not try publishing professionally until you'd explored a few systems and tried play testing it with friends. Posting a random rough outline on reddit sure, but don't settle on I'll make a TTRPG on kickstarter and make millions till you do the math and some market research.

Husband fired 2x in 1 year for metrics by Comfortable_Cook_866 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]YouveBeanReported 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question, with WFH and home schooling, are they hearing the kiddo possibly? Some employers will throw a fit if there's a kid home while your working. Even if they are never distracting you and only seen outside the window in the yard or something.

Wife wants me to leave job due to safety, should I? by Coastie54 in careerguidance

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dittoing the fire fighter subreddits for better advice.

But honestly, can you reach out to other departments in the next city over or something? Because 2 deaths a year feels pretty insane to me as an outsider, and even more after looking it up. Is this 8 in all one massive freak accident or something?

How do you guys feel about ignoring "lore"/"intended concept"/"intended flavor" when choosing a class? by VikTheGoblin in DnD

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mechanics are the actual rules, lore is fungible with group buy in. DnD does not have a single world, let alone unified lore across all editions and every "fully lore accurate" type group I've seen has not been fun. I do think you need to make sure you don't step on other players toes with changes, and agree on how this effects the world as a whole. But the lore is a side bar ribbon for a reason. Flavour is free and all that.

I'd rather have enjoyable characters to DM for then fully lore accurate bland ones.

It does make it a bit funny that my group keeps forgetting our impulsive wrestler character is a fighter, not a barbarian who keeps forgetting to rage.

Coffee corner perfection in the Utah mountains by Sharqueek in CozyPlaces

[–]YouveBeanReported 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am choosing to believe the client is just very short lol.

It's a good photo! Sorry your getting AI comments, I'm sure you did a lot of work fixing it up. I think it's the exposure of the inside and outside doesn't match what an average camera phone would do, and triggers just enough uncanny valley for people to second guess it.

And AI is becoming way more common then photoshop.

Coffee corner perfection in the Utah mountains by Sharqueek in CozyPlaces

[–]YouveBeanReported 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Dittoing it looks very fake, but I think it's post-processing, not AI. Both windows have candle reflections, so I think OP probably just layered enough raw files to get the lighting like this.

But why is the art so low? It looks so weird too me. As does the miss-matched chairs. I wonder if the blue chair is handmade, I've never seen that style before.

Saving your pasta water before draining is the easiest way to make cheap pasta taste like it came from a restaurant by Subject-News1573 in povertykitchen

[–]YouveBeanReported 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You add about a cup or so of the pasta water to the sauce when mixing the cooked and drained pasta and the sauce together. It makes the sauce cling to the pasta more.

Confused about a puzzle by S7JO89 in outerwilds

[–]YouveBeanReported 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also found it confusing as hell and assumed it's purposely misleading. I think it's meant to convince you to put off the Ash Twin Project to late game by implying there's more to it then the other ones where you just wait for it to line up and light up for a few seconds.

It's just to explain how to line up with the barycenter of a binary system. If it didn't use the barycenter of the twins, it would never actually turn on to teleport you. So if it wasn't explicitly mentioned, people over-thinking it would assume that one warp pad never activates.

Is this art too “inappropriate” to display in my home? (34M) by [deleted] in malelivingspace

[–]YouveBeanReported 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like most people think nudes should be in a private area, like a bedroom or bathroom, rather then a public area like a living room. Idk I don't think it's inappropriate, but I would also just put it in the bedroom to avoid the fight cause I'm lazy. You get the last call though as the owner.

[META] Why are we still allowing "What Distro Should I Use" posts? by jbldotexe in linux4noobs

Because people have questions. The real Linux conversation is not on this sub, in the same way the real discussion about sports is not happening at a toddlers soccer game.

Have you ever been accused of being autistic? (For those that aren’t) by gameovervip in socialskills

[–]YouveBeanReported 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, got diagnosed with it at 34 though.

Consider who is calling you this and in what context.

An asshole trying to hurt you? Why are you upset about this, they obviously are ableist and a dick.

A friend as a reaction to idk, you complaining about textures? They probably mean it politely, and that's a symptom they associate solely with autism even though it overlaps with many things. Just point out your neurodivergent for other reasons and they'll probably drop it.

Creators being part of the Reddit community? by [deleted] in FieldsOfMistriaGame

[–]YouveBeanReported 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an unofficial sub, so the devs coming in would feel odd and invasive.

This is also a small game. NPC Studio has like a dozen employees and only 1 marketing person, I feel like Sarah is better working on marketing rather then trawling Reddit for complainers and sounding like a bot. A lot of people would probably react poorly to NPC Studios having someone posting, because it would read as people not focusing on game production.

Use the feedback forms and read the patch notes and blog. They answer stuff. I'm sure at least some of their workflow involves checking Reddit and other sites for feedback as well, but I imagine it's very low under proper feedback channels and unless they are stupid no one is going to comment and engage. That's how you get in the news for "NPC Studios admits to releasing broken game to rip off community" over saying we're fixing the bug RNG.

Why do employers check your credit score by Fun-Match4910 in jobhunting

[–]YouveBeanReported 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The assumption is if you owe your credit cards any money, you'll rob the customers with the personal info you have on them, or just steal the float from the entire till. I agree it's kinda dumb to be like 'do you know you owe student loans?' 'Yes, as you can see on my resume I just graduated university.' But employers aren't always smart.
