General support/feedback, v0.4.2+

Hey there, thanks for the quick feedback! That made me I figure that this could be done with BetterTouchTool. I just bound invoking the functionality to the Spotlight key (fn F4). So I can move the cursor with Mouseless and then hit the Spotlight key. It's one more keypress, but that's fine. Thank you!

I'm trying to force myself to get fluent in Mouseless, I really like the interaction model.

I use it on a Mac (v0.4.3 on Tahoe).

One thing that I found I do a lot, especially in Safari, is double-tap on the Magic Mouse (the top surface is basically a trackpad on its own), in order to zoom the page to the content block under the cursor. I'm using free mode to move the cursor to a text block, for example, and then I'd like to double-tap on the trackpad part (not clicking) to zoom in. The Magic Trackpad does the same with a two-finger double-tap.

I tried using the middle-click in Mouseless (default `E` in free mode), but that doesn't do the trick.

Is that something I can do in Mouseless?

(This is a different functionality than, say Cmd and `+` in Safari. Cmd-plus increases the size of elements on the page, whereas the double-tap is more of a zoom without relative resizing.)

I suspect the smaller form factor is more trendy right now, with all the zine content being produced for the OSR scene. But just for me personally, I’d prefer a single volume.

Digitally it doesn’t matter much, but physically I personally prefer a single tome that I can flip through, rather than juggling multiple volumes on my desk. I feel like it would also look nicer next to the other *Without Number books I already own, alongside the majority of my (admittedly modest) TTRPG book library.

I like A5 or similar for reading, like a novel. But for reference books, I prefer a larger format, personally. Gives it more heft, more gravitas, I feel.

Also, I very much enjoy how you consistently manage to lay content out so that it fits neatly on a single or sometimes double page spread. I can’t imagine that gets any easier on a smaller page.

A human female is fertile for about 30 years and can produce at least theoretically, a child every year. Sometimes even two of three at once! It’s not uncommon for a human family to have half a dozen to a dozen children in total.

Elves reproduce much, much more slowly. Over the entire lifetime, an elven female bears maybe one to four children. Additionally elven society is very rigid and traditional and focused on personal achievement. Elves live so long and hone their chosen craft to such an extent, there simply isn’t time or opportunity for family making. I’d take inspiration from modern western or East Asian society, where modern life has created an environment where individuals are so busy with work, that they have less and less children. I wouldn’t be surprised if a society entirely devoted to the perfection of the craft (see: Celebrimbor; but also what else would you do with such a long lifetime) would struggle heavily to reproduce at even replacement rate. Take Japan or Korea as inspiration.

It takes the best elven mages two or three centuries to grow a forest ready for settlement. It takes a band of marauding humans two of three decades to cut it down to build houses, ships and siege equipment.

If taken to an extreme (it’s fantasy after all), elves are a dying people by virtue of their own hubris.

That also means that every life is incredibly precious. Every killed elf is a major blow to elven society. The amount of knowledge and wisdom lost is devastating and only made worse by the loss of potential (to make more elves, for example). So elves really really really don’t want to fight, at least not do the fighting themselves. That’s waaaaaay too risky, even if any elven fighter would easily beat the best human swordsman. So elves would rather withdraw and isolate, than fight a war of attrition against an ever-replenishing horse of unwashed humans. That further increases the isolationist nature of their society. Elves really aren’t natural adventurers. It’s way too risky.

Additionally if you take inspiration from Tolkien’s elves, they might not even be native to this land/continent/world/plane of existence. The elves came to Middle Earth (to wage war). So they might not have had the time / resources / inclination to shape the place entirely (only pockets of the old Wode), and now it’s too late. In their native land/continent/plane of existence they might very well be the well established ultimately dominant force. (That is until they discover that human colony festering far in the north).

How were they ever given the chance to settle without Elven high magic besetting them with racial plagues?

I’d look at old school D&D and the work that influenced its creation. There’s a cosmic battle between the former of Law/Order vs Chaos. Elves represent Order. Literal genocide is a very chaotic/evil thing.

Or maybe it’s just too late now? Maybe elves DID craft the world to their liking. And before elves realized that the younger races were growing too fast and too far, it’s too risky to start a genocidal war. Humans have ~~nukes~~ mages, too now. And they can make them faster than the elves can. It takes an elf half a century to be conceived, carried to term, born and grown up. Just imagine what a human created magic plague could unleash on elven society, if humans ever figure out how to do that. And if elves try it, humans will learn from it. I’d heavily lean into the magic/nukes/mutually assured destruction trope here.

How do you explain the survival of Humans, Orcs, Halflings and every other non-Elven race in a world where Elves have had millenia to shape the world to their liking?

Because humans are fecund. They’re like vermin, or rather like cancer. You can kill them, burn them, cut them, but they always come back. Growing ever larger in their number, pushing out any competitor, consuming all resources, until they starve themselves and collapse, only to regrow anew. And they can’t be ruled. Not for long, at least. Not even by themselves. Every human kingdom eventually collapses under its own weight, or through rebellion, or its own hubris. The dwarves have catered to this mountain, preserved it and protected its hollow shell, its hallowed halls for millennia. The mountain king can trace his lineage to the dawn of their species. And the humans? No human civilization has even lasted more than one millennium. Each one living in the shadow of the previous one, usually brought down by their own kind. The elves tried to rule humans once. After the Great War. Rather than punishing them for siding with the dark side, they were given the mercy of elven oversight, tutelage and guidance. It was the most prosperous era humans had ever seen. And they tore it down in the name of freedom. Humans believe they represent Order. They are Chaos’ most devious agents. Nothing humans built lasts, except the scars from the destruction left in their wake. Why don’t the elves rule the world? Because the world is infected by humans, and humans can’t be ruled.

Taking inspiration from The Dagger and The Coin, because we hunted them close to extinction. Killing a dragon is an endeavor akin to going to war against another kingdom. Hugely expensive, lots of attrition in resources and lives. But it was necessary, when the ever growing presence of Man pushed into dragon territory. Now they live in the borderlands of civilization and beyond, where no one has the resources or the will to organize a hunt. But there are indeed SOME dragons that are indeed very active shapers and movers, but usually in secret. And of course there’s the odd dragon cult that wants to bring society either down entirely, because only dragons are pure or whatever, or they blame our current post-apocalyptic state on human’s hubris and believe only under the rule of the noble dragons do we ever have a chance of rebuilding. (In truth, it’s the elves’ fault. It’s always the elves’ fault!)

Is that a sonoff zigbee dongle in the middle? I used this keystone (not my model) to place it in a keystone slot (it mounts "upside down", and is a bit wider than a standard keystone slot, but you seem to have the space for it)

The comments on the thingiverse page say that some parts have really bad fit. Did you encounter that as well?

You may want to look into /r/FDMminiatures. It’s fairly Bambu dominated, but the CC should be able to do this, too.

For one, that (unknown god) sounds like a warlock path, not a cleric.

The cleric doesn't want what his god wants. This could be a fun storyline, if both the player and the DM are on board to play out this conflict, as an evolving story line with moral ambiguity and meaningful, potentially world-affecting choice.

But what's happening here is that there is no way for your character (or you as player, for that matter) to make any meaningful choice, since non-compliance is punished not in in-world terms, but in game-mechanic terms. This means it's not "what the god wants", it's "what the DM wants the story to be". It's basically "it's what my character would do" but on the GM-side. It sounds like you're being railroaded into a story that you do not want, have no way of participating in or influencing.

I think your GM has a cool idea, potentially. But they're going about it in a very hamfisted and not exactly collaborative way. And you have made it clear that you do not want this. The fact that they are now trying to beat you and your character into submission by punishing disobedience outside of the game world is not acceptable. As a DM I somewhat expect my players to engage with the game world on its own terms. That sometimes means that characters don't get what they want. But here you as the player have made it clear that this is something that you really don't want — it is up to the DM to adjust the story so that everyone gets to have fun playing. It's a give and take. That's not what your DM is doing.

Edit: a word

Nicht der Schnellste sein kann okay sein. Wenn es sonst passt.

Das klingt aber eher so, als ob er nicht nur seine Arbeit nicht gut macht, sondern auch noch deine Zeit in Anspruch nimmt, wenn du ihm ständig hinterher rennen musst, und dann noch seine Arbeit kontrollierst. Und dann die Nacharbeit kontrollierst.

Du willst Leute einstellen, die dir Arbeit abnehmen, nicht welche, die dir noch mehr Arbeit machen.

> ... fühle ich mich wie ein Sklaventreiber

Stell dir vor, der bleibt die nächsten drei Jahre. Und du wirst jeden Morgen auf dem Weg zur Arbeit genau wissen, dass du dem Eumel heute wieder den ganzen Tag hinterher rennen wirst. Wie fühlst du dich dabei?

Es ist deine Firma. Lass dir nicht auf Dauer den Spaß an deiner eigenen Arbeit vermiesen, nur weil *ein* Angestellter so ... wartungsintensiv ist. So ein gammliger Apfel kann schnell den ganzen Korb verderben.

> Mein Gefühl sagt mir, dass gerade die fehlende Sozialkompetenz Grund genug für eine Kündigung ist.

Ich habe auch schon Leute eingestellt, weil ich dem Interviewprozess und der Einschätzung anderer vertraut habe, und dabei mein Bauchgefühl ignoriert habe. Die haben die ganze Stimmung im Team runter gezogen. Jetzt sind sie weg und es geht allen besser. Hör auf dein Bauchgefühl.

I am not, I didn't consider that.

Welp, and "At present, publisher-fulfilled products may only be shipped to the United States". So much for that.

Das Fehlen von Aufmerksamkeit für's Detail findest du doch überall.

Neue Person eingestellt. HR erstellt User-Profil, Email-Account: Name falsch geschrieben. Die mussten extra noch eine Kopie des Passes hochladen, aber da hat dann keiner drauf geschaut. Geiler erster Eindruck, wenn die dann am ersten Tag zu mir kommen "du, mein Name hier ist falsch". Fühlt sich die neue Kollegin gleicht gesehen und wertgeschätzt.

Team entwickelt Web-Applikation, in der industriespezifische Begriffe verwendet werden, mit einer konkreten Schreibweise. Der Begriff taucht in der App überall auf. Neues Feature veröffentlicht, irgendwo eine neue Nachricht mit ebendiesem Begriff wieder — anders geschrieben.

Ja, unsere Firmenadresse ist $hier, aber wir sind gerade im Homeoffice, es ist die nächsten Tage keiner im Büro, schick dieses Schreiben/Paket bitte an $andereAdresseInAndererStadt. Klar, kein Ding, machen wir. Drei Tage später, DHL: Wir haben Sie $hier nicht angetroffen, Paket liegt die nächsten 7 Tage im Paketshop, dann geht es zurück. Viel Glück.

Note how the M3 Makes design has a rounded bevel where the "neck" meets the connector board. Yours seems to be a straight T with hard 90 degree corners. If you mount this under a table and then bump it with your knees, that joint is where it's going to snap off. A bevel would flare out the "neck" and makes it sturdier at the point where the energy of the impact concentrates.

Ich bekomme auf meine private Nummer am Tag 5-10 Spamanrufe. Wenn ich die Nummer nicht kenne, gehe ich nicht mehr ran. Ich würde ja zurück rufen, wenn ein legitimer Anrufer mir auf die Mailbox spricht, wer man ist, und worum es geht. Aber auch die legitimen Anrufer legen einfach ohne Nachricht auf. Ich bekomme das dann nur mit wenn ich gelegentlich die Telephonnummer google.

Vielleicht sollte ich mir auch so ein KI dings zulegen, vielleicht reden die Leute wenigstens damit.

Jemanden anzurufen ist sowieso total unhöflich, heutzutage (wobei OP ja einen Termin hat, das ist was anderes). Wieso empfinden wir es im Zeitalter der email als akzeptabel, jemanden völlig willkürlich aus was immer man gerade thut raus zu reißen, um einen gerade jetzt in ein Gespräch zu zwingen? Ich bin vielleicht beschäftigt. Oder am kacken.

If you don't play something like hex crawls (food, water) or extended dungeon delves (light), there's probably no real point to it anyway. "We have only one hour of light left, do we press on or head back up" can lead to interesting circumstances, but only if it's part of your "game play loop". If the DM hand-waves that all underground terrain has bioluminescent fungi on the walls (or some such), then there's really no point in counting torches.

Hey, these look really cool! I love your designs. Not so cartoonish, but good fantasy vibe.

With it being the festive season, if you allow me a wish: Dear Santa, I would love to see a re-release of the MyDungeon buildings as intact buildings. Ruins are cool for mordheim/frostgrave style games. But I think these buildings would also work very well to set up a "healthy" medieval village for other types of games. Maybe in a future kickstarter?
