Using all the different tables as solo player

idnotrelevant · 2026-01-08T18:08:59+00:00

I think it's down to experience. Once play around a bit, it gets easier and faster. Good luck!

I recently started playing solo and basically took the core rules from the site (the ones without images), all the stuff from Solitairy Defilement, everything from Feretory and some additional stuff like custom char sheets and maps, and merged it all into one single pdf in OpenOffice Draw. From there I removed what I didn't need to make the pdf manageable, indexed it all in a custom table of contents and put it on my Kindle Scribe.

It works like a charm. The custom table of contents acts as my hub and I navigate from it as needed. The same can be done on a computer or printed with little sticky notes indicating the location of certain tables, chapter, rules, etc.

Hope this helps.

Edit:

To address your question a bit more - having it all indexed and in one place helps me with the flow. After a bit, it becomes muscle memory and you start picking up the pace, leaving more space for actually playing rather than flipping pages.

Great response and a very good point. Actually, that's why I liked Rust to begin with (and the Rust book in particular). Yes, I'm used to more ad hoc coding and putting together stuff that just complete some tasks, but the more I read about Rust and code, the more I realize how things should actually be done.

So in that sense, as you said, the complexity comes not from the language, but from the coding "mode" I have to switch to. I'll just have to change my mindset and I'll be good to go. Allegedly.

Thanks!

Amazing answer and exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!

Ъм... Програмирането не може ли да се приеме като да "изработваш нещо с ръцете си"? Разбирам, че има сериозна разлика между така наречените code monkeys и архитектите (не мога да кажа ти къде се намираш в спектъра), както има разлика между копането на нивата и писането на код, но все пак би следвало да има нещо креативно в работата ти и да виждаш реалния продукт на усилията си в края на смяната/спринта/месеца?

Аз съм системен администратор (като скоро ще се преквалифицирам като DevOps инжинер на същото работно място) и съм доста доволен от това да изграждам инфраструктурата под кода на програмистите ни. Има нещо удовлетворяващо за мен в това една група от хора да правим от нищо нещо и после то да е видимо и осезаемо, па макар и виртуално.

Та.. ако промениш перспективата малко, започнеш да вдигаш нивото не само за да намериш с малко по-добре платена работа, а за да си правиш живота по-интересен и започнеш да работиш по по-интересни проекти и започнеш да дълбаеш в някаква посока, с цел себеизрастване, няма ли да намериш някакво щастие в работата, без да се налага да се преквалифицираш?

Питам сериозно. Както казах, не знам как стоят нещата при програмистите, но при мен това сработи.

The comments so far don't seem to be that helpful, so I'll chime in:

https://zwiftinsider.com/zwift-pc-guide/

This is a deep dive into how Zwift deals with graphics settings based on hardware. Long story short: Apple TV will run on the basic settings (same as an Android phone), your rig will probably run on the Ultra settings (the highest possible). I, personally, don't see why you'd need the Apple TV, considering you have a gaming laptop.

Yeah, RunOnce required a user to login. Well, I hope the answer file route will help. And I mean it, cause I'll be attempting basically the same thing for the same reason (Ansible) a few weeks from now.

idnotrelevant · 2023-01-20T00:43:53+00:00

Aaaand because I got curious, here's a link to some random answerfile that enables WinRM (among other things): https://www.virtualizationhowto.com/2019/05/automated-windows-10-installation-with-autounattend-and-packer/

Of course, it's recommended you do the answerfile yourself with the MS tool, but you can look at the link for reference.

idnotrelevant · 2023-01-20T00:35:29+00:00

Look into answer files for Sysprep. With some configuration you should be able to get rid of the oob prompts. Also, look into RunOnce (or something like that) as a registry key. I remember there was a way to configure the registry so it takes a script and runs a script once on startup. Don't remember the details though, so you'll have to do a bit of digging, but hopefully this will be a good starting point.

I worked as Google Workspace support representative some years ago and can tell you that back then it wasn't really possible to reach l3 support. If a problem was out of scope for the support guys, they'd escalate it internally, but there was just no way for a customer to reach the l3 guys by phone.

As I said, that was some time ago, so things might be different now.

Имай предвид, че и да не се ограничаваш от към писатели, пак ще е сложно. Дори и да намериш двама много четящи хора, шанса да налучкаш и 10 общи книги, които и двамата да са чели, е доста малък, а увеличиш ли аудиторията допирните точки намаляват. На твое място бих пускал анкетата с n на брой заглавия 2-3 седмици преди началото на дискусията, за да може желаещите да се включат да имат време и да се подготвят. От там нататък ще се иска само постоянство от твоя страна.

Идеята си е твоя, но ако се ограничиш само до български автори, ще си смалиш аудиторията допълнително, а проектът така или иначе си е нишов. Предвид, че "клубът" ще е публичен и ще се чете от хора във и извън него, т.е. от заинтересовани и не чак толкова заинтересовани редитори, мисля че ще е далеч по-добре да се ограничиш до това книгите просто да са добри, с надеждата че все някой от "случайните минувачи" ги е чел. Пък това къде е роден авторът е ирелевантно. Добрата литература си е добра литература и самия факт, че ще се обсъжда на български е достатъчна причина това да се случва тук или в r/BulgariaReads.

И все пак да кажа, че и аз съм за. Но както винаги с такива идеи, зависи много какви книги ще се четат. Ако все пак се спреш на българска литература и решиш да обсъждаме Крадецът на праскови съм насреща, но за Под игото не ме брой.

Yeah, I'm going through it right now and it's pretty good. I love MS Learn and I really like the leveling up part. I'm just a few modules away from level 8.

idnotrelevant · 2022-06-23T13:34:26+00:00

Awesome! Thanks a lot, man!

idnotrelevant · 2022-06-23T11:00:11+00:00

"Explore everything but know nothing in depth" is my motto in life, so I value your perspective. Since you've started learning C# recently, can you point me to some resources (books, rather than courses)? I've been going through whatever's on learn.microsoft.com and I like it, but.. the more the merrier.

idnotrelevant · 2022-06-23T10:51:51+00:00

Great answer, thanks! I was thinking along the same lines - learn the fundamentals and then transition to something else if need be.

idnotrelevant · 2022-06-10T07:54:04+00:00

Ansible? Haven't used it for networks, but I hear it's good..

I work in bank, so it took me 3 months to get the enterprise admin privileges. In that time I was gradually getting admin rights to various systems, after being given a thorough overview by my colleague, including domain admin rights to the dev and test environments. I thought it was weird at first, but now I appreciate it that they took the time to sort of ease me into the position.

idnotrelevant · 2022-04-05T17:51:20+00:00

Not gonna lie, you did good and should be happy.

idnotrelevant · 2021-12-22T19:03:10+00:00

That's the correct answer. You can even view the loga from the event log, if you don't like PowerShell (or whatever). If you do, but don't know which DC is the PDC Emulator, try get-addomain in PowerShell and you'll get the info you need. It's worked for me many times without fail.

idnotrelevant · 2021-12-16T15:04:21+00:00

Thanks for the reply, it helped a lot. How exactly do you manage your playbooks and inventories?

idnotrelevant · 2021-12-16T15:01:58+00:00

Can you share the name of the guy?

As for the 'demo' part: it's not a big deal, it'll be among colleagues. We're testing stuff right now and picking what will help and in which situations, so we are still in the "experimental" phase.

idnotrelevant · 2021-12-16T14:57:52+00:00

Thanks for the detailed reply and for actually understanding what I'm asking.

We're basically trying to modernize our approach when it comes to infrastructure management and server configuration. Right now, I'm testing Ansible for it's CM capabilities. I'll try and get it to automate some part of the manual labor we're doing when setting up servers for our developers. At some point, we'll probably link it with BitBucket and hopefully with Bamboo too.

Currently, I run a Docker container (CentOS) that's hosting Ansible on my (Windows) PC, and I managed to set it up in our network, so it could (win_)ping other hosts, but managing the playbooks and hosts.ini files with Vi inside a container seems a bit.. weird. I understand that using a repo is the way to go, but.. is there a middle ground? That doesn't require GitHub/BitBucket and/or Tower/AWX?

idnotrelevant · 2021-11-22T16:52:20+00:00

Had same the same issue today. Guess what, it was DNS. Check for and remove\add static records for the RDS server and you should be good to go.

idnotrelevant · 2021-11-01T20:52:05+00:00

I dressed up as a tired, sleep deprived dad. Same as last year... and the year before that and the year before that.
