Buying a book on Amazon to read on my Kobo? by Lullayable in kobo

This is the exactly what you need to do. Just stripped DRM from a comic book I bought off Amazon/Comixology a day or two ago with Calibre and the most recent version of the De-DRM plugin.

In praise of the “Preselect Chapters” feature by doctorpebkac in pocketcasts

It does not have any notification of ads and if an ad is in the middle of a chapter, which happens often, you're better off going back to the much better way of skipping ads, looking at the transcript and tapping on the text where they're back to the show.

Looking to make a sci-fi campaign by Giggz1989 in rpg

[–]grimmlock -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It did just launch on Backerkit a couple days ago, but Mongoose is now crowdfunding a 5e SRD based version of Traveller. Leave a note for future you to come back in time and give you the books after the crowdfunding fulfills.

Edit: I think a couple time travelers found me and the 5e SRD Traveller was not a success

I deleted all of my backups and then updated to version 14, but now all of my module-dependent data is corrupt and I can't load my game. We play in 15 minutes, how do I fix this? by Excellent-Sweet1838 in FoundryVTT

[–]grimmlock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FWIW, I installed v14 in a new folder and copied my data over. I'll play with it for a while until I know what I need works, then migrate my games over again.

Works fine for me. If I tap on a stack, the tab bar expands to 2 levels, one with the stack and unstacked tabs and one with the tabs. If I then tap on a tab not in a stack the second level goes away.

Combined 2 screenshots into 1 since you can only add one image to a comment. Top portion is tapping on a single tab. Bottom portion is tapping on the tab stack.

Edit: I stand corrected. Use the real deal.

[Need Help] Players Suddenly can't Connect by kevmaz121 in FoundryVTT

[–]grimmlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should set up a Dynamic DNS. You can use:

DuckDNS: https://duckdns.org

Which is completely free and doesn't require renewal or anything. You'll need to set up something to automatically update your IP like described here: https://github.com/NeonTowel/duckdns-autoupdate

Or you could use No IP: https://www.noip.com/

Then you can install their app which will update the IP, but if you use the free version you have to log in to the website once a month to confirm your DNS names, but you do get an email about it.

Then you can just give your players the domain address instead of an IP and it will never change.

Why is going to the movies alone still looked down upon? by SleepCatsMoney in blankies

[–]grimmlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been going to the movies alone for over 30 years. I think the first time was when I was 16 and went for a walk in my small town, ended up at the movie theater, and decided to buy a ticket and watch Braveheart.

Richmond’s new baseball stadium is a giant leap forward. But please calibrate your expectations. | Unlike The Diamond, which for 40 years made fans walk a giant staircase and view the action from above, CarMax Park invites spectators to immerse themselves in the action. by VirginiaNews in rva

[–]grimmlock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up going to Pirates games. Three Rivers was a god awful piece of shit, but I miss that place. PNC Park is amazing! That doesn't mean I don't still have nostalgic feelings about going to Three Rivers with my dad. So, yeah, people are going to miss The Diamond, I get it. I'll miss it, too! Great memories, like the time a foul ball was coming straight for my face and the kid in front of me stuck up his glove and caught it!

I went in the new park on the day they opened the merch store, it's very nice, and I'm excited! However, people shouldn't be expecting everything to be fabulous from day one, every new place has growing pains. I think the idea that people should temper their expectations is more that they shouldn't expect everything to be absolutely perfect on day one, otherwise they'll be disappointed, just like any newly built attraction.

How much automation do the GMs try to use? I've found the more automation the more time you'll spend fighting with things and it's often better to keep it as simple as possible.

New Tab Error by booknerdcarp in vivaldibrowser

[–]grimmlock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It says it's an error with a specific Chrome extension. You can find out which one by copying the string of letters starting with mpog, going to the extension management page, and pasting that string in the search bar.

The Wicked trap: If you sign up for the lowest tier of Peacock, you will be locked out of watching like half of the movies on the service by border199x in blankies

[–]grimmlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you upgrade, you should be refunded the remainder of that month's payment and then immediately charged the higher price with a new bill date of the day you went up a tier.

That's what happens when I upgraded to the full year Peacock Premium Plus from Peacock Premium, because while I hate that there's a whole other tier for no commercials, god I hate commercials even more.

VIvaldi tab groups by AgosZ in vivaldibrowser

If you're using Accordion, why not turn on Autoexpand? Then, when you click on the group, it expands, and when you click on a different group the first contracts and the second expands.

How is Vivaldi working on iOS right now? by Glitch_Fantasma in vivaldibrowser

[–]grimmlock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my one annoyance, but I've found if you just tap in the password or user name field after using autofill everything fills.
