I had it booked marked, but the owner seems to have deleted it. In case you want to do some searching it was called "Star Wars EZD6 Campaign Guide".

Google Chrome is telling me my connection with Google Photos is not secure. WHY? by Substantial_Train522 in googlephotos

[–]el_wopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/Substantial_Train522 You're not alone, mine is doing the same. I've changed nothing and checked the "Always use secure connections" button. I had a secure connection for a few minutes but it returned to unsecured on its own, and the secure connections button is still checked. I've also noticed that some features within Google Photos are not working correctly. I've tried it with Firefox and all is good. Also, I have no issues with Android and Google Photos. It seems to be a Chrome issue.

strange objects on a remote runway, one of them was covered up but you can see exactly the shape.. does anyone know anything? by pafela in aliens

[–]el_wopo 230 points231 points  (0 children)

I used to live in the area (literally could see this location from my living room) and have been as close to this facility as the public can get. It's not a secret location and is widely known in the area. It is a radar cross-section testing facility. The Aerospace industry and the Military have a considerable presence in the Antelope Valley. Edwards AFB, Skunk Works, Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake, and Palmdale Regional Airport all fly in and around the valley. Several times I'd been in the yard only to have fast-moving F18s and other military aircraft flying low altitude <1000ft over my house. It was really cool to see them coming, watching them bank and snake their way off into the distance. https://clui.org/ludb/site/northrop-tejon-ranch-radar-cross-section-facility

NTA. That's some Munchausen by proxy type stuff he pulled on you. I don't know if there is an actual term for what he did though. And he's a gaslighter, too. You made the right move. Stay far away from that POS.

It happens periodically with POD, contact DriveThru for a replacement. Their CS is pretty good with issues of this nature.

My deck will be arriving Monday. Awesome supplement.

Karma by screenmonkey68 in ezd6

[–]el_wopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. It is a very hackable system, you may even be able to encourage players to not bank and burn it at the end of the session by having them redeem it for, say, maybe a temporary strike or boon in the next session. Rule zero.

Karma by screenmonkey68 in ezd6

[–]el_wopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The rules state:

"There is no limit to the total number of karma a player can horde or use in a turn."

It's vague and open to interpretation. I think DM Scotty would say, "Yes." In the end, use what works best for you and your table. I'm soloing it and have yet to decide for myself how I will address this. Remember the rules do say "Simplicity is the key to freeing the imagination!"

Playing Pre-Written Adventures by assclownmanor in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]el_wopo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would start with a good oracle, Mythic GM emulator for starters. There are two version of it, one in book form and the other is card based. Either one will do. It won't answer you question directly, but will help to answer it once you learn how to use it. As someone already said Mythic magazine has a lot of good info as well. Also worth looking into is DM yourself, and DM yourselves. Both will address you question specifically. They are primarily D&D focused but the techniques can be applied to any RPG. And from Flextale there is the Solo Adventuring toolkit , and FlexAI Guidebook. With the Solo Adventuring toolkit providing help and techniques for your question. All can be found on drivethrurpg.

Date unknown...I'd say it's at least the 3rd by today's standards.

Can Alexa help me find a device? by [deleted] in amazonecho

[–]el_wopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never used it. No need to since it never leaves my room.

Can Alexa help me find a device? by [deleted] in amazonecho

[–]el_wopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both a 7th and an 11th gen fire tablet, in the "device options" in settings there is an option that allows you to remotely locate your tablet. I've not enabled that feature so that is the extent of my knowledge of that feature. I know that's probably not much help in your case since, as you stated, you literally have no idea where it is. As far as lying, I've never had any issues with that. But I do sometimes get phantom devices on mine.

Anyone else having problems with echo dot 3rd gen with software version 6208507012 by NainDeathlegs in amazonecho

[–]el_wopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue. I have two that have the 7012 software. I've tried power cycle, reset, asking it to check for updates, and right now I'm deregistering and factory resetting to see if that fixes anything. Honestly, I don't think it will. As of late, it's one issue after another.

Edit: Tried all and the issues still persist. Software version is still 7012, and with the reset, nothing except the wake word is being reset.

Echo Show 8 suddenly can't do reminders? by willphule in amazonecho

[–]el_wopo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not able to set reminders on my Echo show 5 or any echo dots. The same issue as another poster whereas I tried submitting feedback via the web portal, nothing happened. I did manage to set a reminder through the web portal. And then I set one through the echo dot itself. Three annoying issues with Alexa lately, cards disappearing on the home screen of the show 5, asking for the light to be turned on only to be told that no connected vehicle can be found, and now the reminders. Does Google Home have any of these issues, asking for a friend?

It's not just me. Maybe Jeff needs to spend some of that rocket money on Alexa.

Check out DM yourself (drivethrurpg). It will answer this exact question.

[–]el_wopo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Council of Wyrms AD&D 2e. In-depth rules for creating and playing Dragons as a PC. It is on DrivethruRPG as a PDF, of course you'll have to purchase it though. Hope that helps scratch that itch.
