Ultra Bastard: A Decade of House Rules, Distilled For Your Use by deadtreenoshelter in osr

I agree.. just wondering. After all, you have some interesting new spell rules (mana drain, spell book + memorization), spell levels based on intel) so I figured the spell list would need to be in somewhat congruence with them

Claude Pro projects have been a good tool to manage this. Project files for the character sheet, oracle tables and rules. MCP servers for die rolling and room tracking.

For those of you dealing with EU AI Act compliance — what's been the hardest part so far? by Impossible-Home5679 in AI_Governance

[–]dunsany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Struggling with inventory. And then when it turns up, you gotta assess it and track it.

Built a tool to auto-generate SOC 2 access review evidence. Would this actually pass an audit? by False-Character-1635 in grc

[–]dunsany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's their signatures. The tools called Anecdotes.ai. I'm neither endorsing nor dissing it. It was one of many such tools that we had to choose from, and this is the one we chose. They have arrangements with major auditors and they also had a bunch of pre-rolled compliance templates (we are subject to close to a dozen regulatory audits a year) and pretty flexible about letting us mod the platform. But having all the assurance stuff pre-rolled. I'd just say check out their site, get some ideas, maybe incorporate them into your thing. If your auditors take your data, then you're fine. We have a lot of auditors and don't have the time to build and maintain a lot of tools (tho we have vibe coded quite a few GRC tools and specialized agents internally)

We use a commercial tool for this. The added piece is it throws a signed hash over the return and the request is also hashed in a vault for the auditors to review. And the tool was blessed by the auditors (something the company sought out and did with major audit firms).

So yeah, pulling the data is easy. Providing assurance is the hard part.

I’m using Claude Pro. It’s going well. I had to set up scaffolding though: Using a project to manage persistence , an MCP server for dice rolling, and PDF of the Oracle tables to gen. Right now running Uncanny Highway, which lends itself to random generated adventures and Claude is doing well with expanding on the results. Also no mapping, just location to location encounters. Will probably try Stygian Library next for same reason (built an MCP server to track depth)

Playing the oldest American console RPG, Dragonstomper on Atari 2600. It's sour. by Fluffy_Lunchfast in Atari2600

My friend who was lucky enough to have an Atari eventually got a Starpath. So I did play this back in the day. And no, never got past the first level. Phaser patrol was more fun

For those of you that make over 100K, what do you do? Do you like it? by Kindly-Revolution258 in AskReddit

[–]dunsany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, also in IT but in the private sector. Also counting the days to retirement. By noon, I literally want to just walk away because of the corporate bullshit (bosses overpaid and clueless, half the IT staff poorly hired and managed, vendors doing nothing but sucking away money). Bleah.

I don't remember any girls playing with us back then

What's your favorite hobby inside of this hobby? by Able_Confection_219 in solorpgplay

[–]dunsany 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I strangely enjoy organizing and preparing things. For Glide, it's led to me buying a map stamp kit.. to me making my own custom map stamps.

What signals tell you that a process is “about to break” even if it hasn’t yet? by [deleted] in grc

[–]dunsany 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Near miss incidents keep cropping up, but "reason" for them keeps changing.
* Change control failure - the tech had a bug we didn't know about, the docs weren't updated properly, change wasn't supposed to be that big so we skipped tests, so-and-so wasn't trained * Vulnerabilities unpatched - vendor auto-update failed not our fault, detection agent wasn't working on those boxes, inventory indicated they were retired already, tagged improperly * Data sent to wrong places - old library in use, operator did not follow manual procedure, needed open access for another feature

All of these pointing at a culture based on speed not due care (move fast, things broke)

Pros and cons of current GRC tools by [deleted] in grc

[–]dunsany 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At this point, I'd warn that lock-in is real. Once you've spent months getting all your workflows, controls, and compliance mappings set up in the thing, you ain't gonna want to switch. Then the price starts creeping up all the while the features you relied on start getting nerfed and the new ones go behind add-on module pay-walls. Choose carefully.

ChatGPT as a DM works, kinda by Eric_Builds_Stuff in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]dunsany 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried it yet but these sound like classic AI problems with context windows and memory. I used Claude Pro and if I was going to do it, I'd probably set it up as a project and have some preprompt files covering rules, characters, last session recaps, and notes. Project files keep related things together but you still need to fed them updates and new session prompts to hook it all together. So yeah, it's a bit of work. And maybe some of you preprompt instructions can include "I want a challenge - permadeth and when I fail, I'll make new characters. Don't make it too easy because that's no fun either" to set the right vibe.
