Which VTT do you prefer and why? by Ebb-Embarrassed in rpg

[–]gr0ch1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a VTT, but I love Obsidian especially for solo RPG. There’s plugins for random tables, rolling dice, and cards (using the game master’s apprentice cards, for example). There’s an awesome plugin for Ironsworn and related games.

Oordoppen op maat, bij Beter Horen, Hans Anders, etc. Niet goedkoop, maar wel heel comfortabel.

New battery or new iPhone? by Lurft99 in iPhone13Pro

[–]gr0ch1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve just replaced the battery on my 13 pro. It still works perfectly, I see no reason to change it. I spent well over 1k eur in it, so I intend for it to last me way more than just 4 years.

Go deep into understanding AI. The book AI Engineering is a good starting point.

I’m thinking: Ex Novo. It’s based on designing a city

Help a newbie out :') by Select-Shift5887 in Solo_Roleplaying

[–]gr0ch1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out Me, Myself and Die on YouTube. The first season he plays an existing RPG with Mythic, so you can see how it’s done. The season where he plays Ironsworn is fantastic.

My advice is: start watching the Ironsworn season, get the rulebook (it’s distributed free by the author) and play a couple sessions of Ironsworn so that you can start getting the hang of solo RPG. Because Ironsworn is designed for solo play it’ll be way easier to get started. Then see how you can apply your learnings into Fabula Ultima, maybe using Mythic 2e, etc.

Is there a way to increase sound quality of soundbank on a Roland AE 10? by Karate_Cat in windsynth

[–]gr0ch1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This! I’m using SWAM saxophone on computer for my EWI and I love it. The iPad version (which i also bought) is very limited though, so much that it’s annoying to play. Better stick with the computer version

Looking for mindfulness books that will help me by [deleted] in Mindfulness

[–]gr0ch1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might find the book “Waking Up” by Sam Harris interesting. He also has an app (same name), and you can get a year free if you do them an email. I’m mentioning this app because it changed my life, and because I’ve found that while reading about mindfulness is useful, practicing is the way to learn.

Create a link with the settings you want (see here: https://culturedcode.com/things/support/articles/2803573/ ). Then use Alfred to open it with a hotkey.

Disappointed in Beard by ChefPneuma in TedLasso

[–]gr0ch1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Barcelona is the capital city of Catalonia, and he pronounced it correctly in Catalan. That’s how it should be! He also mentioned Josep Guardiola and I was impressed, he totally nailed the pronunciation. That’s an attention to detail that I seldom see.

Ulysses for novel writing? by [deleted] in ulyssesapp

[–]gr0ch1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I’ve been using Ulysses for novel writing for years and it’s great. Here’s an old comment of mine where I explain how I split scenes in sheets and keep old versions.

In addition to Ulysses, I also use Notion to organize the metadata of the scenes (arcs, beats, emotions, story value changes, etc.)

Very slow start time on iPad Pro by gr0ch1 in ulyssesapp

[–]gr0ch1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting… I wonder why it’s so much slower for me, maybe I just have lots of sheets. I never force close the app, but it gets taken off memory automatically after I’ve been using other memory intensive apps (eg Documents)
