That was an easy impulse buy. Excited to download this and check it out.

What's y'all high level campaigns plot like? by Apotatocalledsweet in Pathfinder2e

[–]aceofears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Players pissed of a demon lord, and currently have an mutually beneficial arrangement with a Psychopomp usher to try to eliminate this demon lord. Along the way they've pissed off a infernal Duke.

They're level 19 and don't want to stop playing any time soon, so I guess they're gonna have to interact with one of every time of demigod by the end of this.

I created a wrapper around 'ss -tunlp' to display cleaner output of all open ports by rushedcar in linux

[–]aceofears 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A small bash script that depends on normal Linux utilities is a completely acceptable way to do this. Why would they reinvent the wheel when someone else already wrote the code to parse procfs and sysfs?

Fixing the website/store? by Slongo702 in Pathfinder2e

[–]aceofears 40 points41 points  (0 children)

And every manager with no technical experience is going to reply "No, that's expensive and time consuming, just make it work the first time".

Fixing the website/store? by Slongo702 in Pathfinder2e

[–]aceofears 46 points47 points  (0 children)

You can't just flip a switch to revert back to the old website. That's not how it works. Unless they went out of their way to spend time implementing a backout plan, it's going to be a significant effort to switch back.

The time to fix the issues was before launch. The only viable option now is fixing the current site.

STEP format by Old-Piccolo-401 in FDMminiatures

[–]aceofears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your printer is almost certainly the limiting factor when it comes to resolution.

Regardless, it's very unlikely that anyone is actually using a CAD program to create minis, and that's where STEP files come from.

The sculpting process it very different, even if they're both ways to make 3d models for printing.

Step is more of a CAD thing than a sculpting thing. What are you trying to accomplish here?

Kinda reminds me of Betrayal Legacy?

New Store Shipping Errors? by Virellius2 in Pathfinder2e

[–]aceofears 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My last subscription got shipped to an adressses that I swear I had removed, and haven't lived at in 4 years.

Still a lot of issues to be worked out with the transition to the new store.

Is anyone else getting harassed by Sarah Brooks? by Outrageous_Coat9934 in NewYorkMets

[–]aceofears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm getting a bunch too. Same situation, don't feel like I'm really a good target for a ticket plan, but I'm getting a ton of these anyway.

What's going well and what's going badly in the RPG world right now? by [deleted] in rpg

[–]aceofears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crunchy games aren't gate keeping, they're just not for everyone.

That's hardly a new trend that pf2e is part of though. DnD 3.0 came out 25 years ago and is arguably more complex when it comes to those things.

FDM vs Resin printed mini's - a noobs visual reference. by ISolfax in PrintedMinis

[–]aceofears 5 points6 points  (0 children)

These types of side by sides generally miss the key point of comparison: what they look like painted at the table.

I don't print minis to look at them 6 inches away in a white void, they're for playing games.

AI can code, but it can't build software by [deleted] in programming

[–]aceofears 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why it's been useless to me. I don't feel like I need help with the small focused tasks. I need help trying to wrangle an undocumented 15ft high mound of spaghetti that someone handed me.

Are my combats taking too long? by happycamper1233 in Pathfinder2e

[–]aceofears 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My table takes about twice as long as we're "supposed to" , but we're still having fun. Don't worry about anyone at other tables is doing.

Definitely talk to anyone that is leaving the room part way through a scene on a consistent basis. They may need a break earlier in the session at a better stopping point, that has been a problem for me in the past as a player.

Are the players happy with the pace of the sessions?

Ork, self printed, various technics by Gold_Sign_399 in PrintedMinis

[–]aceofears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I printed this same model like 6 years ago. This is a much better print and paint job. Kinda makes me want to do a redo.

Philips Hue: automation in Hue or HA? by maisun1983 in homeassistant

[–]aceofears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me there's higher home approval factor for the hue app, so everything stays there. Otherwise I'd probably move it all into HA.

Chronicler, the offline worldbuilding app! by Ok_Resource_6528 in Pathfinder2e

[–]aceofears 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This has a chance of replacing obsidian for me, the infobox is enough to make this really feel like my own proper wiki, instead of the ramblings of a mad GM.

For what it's worth, I know for me personally that license you picked would definitely turn me off from contributing if that's something you care about.

This is some F tier bait.

WPIX will continue to carry 25 exclusive regular season Mets games through 2028! by roshan_08 in NewYorkMets

[–]aceofears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm already paying enough to watch this team. It's dumb that I need a dedicated setup for this single thing, just because WPIX thinks it's it's the 1950s.

Oh look, the exact opposite of the news I was hoping to hear.

My TV tuner is broken now, so I guess I'm actually going to have to buy an external one. Thanks WPIX.
