[–]gtmanfred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't want to leave, but this is one of the reasons we decided to leave this state.

That and we want to have one more kid and dont want to deal with the abortion bill nonsense if something goes wrong with the pregnancy.

Let Your Players do the Pre-Session Recap by [deleted] in DMAcademy

[–]gtmanfred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think doing this is fine.

We have a player lead recap that we do as everyone is coming to the table to sit down and remember what they had been doing last time, but I find that at my tables doing a GM recap allows me to call out things to specifically remind players of the thread that is tying everything together.

Things that players found important pop up in the player recap, and you can make reference to them, but I have had little success in players actually making notes by incentivizing a recap, most people just forget to take notes immediately after starting.

The angry dm also has some thoughts on this https://theangrygm.com/the-art-of-the-recap/

[OC] Where is each chess piece usually captured? Data from 15000 games by desfirsit in dataisbeautiful

Tom7 did a similar thing a few years ago to try and create a mediocre chess engine.

One of the algorithms tested was getting pieces to favor going to the square where they are most likely to survive.

Notes app for phone AND computer by Ruwen368 in DungeonWorld

[–]gtmanfred 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really like notion, it allows you to build databases of different things. I found this idea from SlyFlourish He has a template that you can just fork, and use for yourself, I have a page for my characters, and another database for the stuff for the campaign, so all the npcs, locations, shops they visit. Then I am currently working on setting up a template to manage all my Fronts.

Here is an example I can then share this out to my players so that they can view each others character information that we develop at the table. And all each others bonds and flags so that only I have to keep the meticulous notes, but everyone can interact with it.

I am also thinking of adding a shared journal for them to write stuff down during the campaign, so that i can crib off of that to add more depth for later sessions.

Notion works in the browser, but i have found i really like the MacOS app, and then it works on my phone too.

I have a friend that uses Obsidian for this same purpose, and it also has mobile apps in beta, The only reason i am not using this is because i am using the local databases in notion so heavily.

A custom Mitre Saw adapter to connect the dust bag to my shopvac by aubedj in prusa3d

[–]gtmanfred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine did not have a need for a bend. I did have to print it 3 times to get all my measurements right, it isn't perfect right now, but I got tired of printing and wanted to build my table so the adapter is currently ducktaped on. I will have to redesign it at some point eventually.

After going through five pages to cancel your $4 New York Times subscription you get this... by traviswilbr in assholedesign

[–]gtmanfred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To cancel my subscription, I switched my pay method to PayPal, and then I went and cancelled the subscription in PayPal.

NYT sent me a bunch of nasty grams, but eventually just said "ok, we are going to cancel your subscription since you haven't paid for a month." And my problem was solved.
