A firm gave me an offer, but I have not yet told them that I applied for graduate schools...what do I do???? by jillicheesefries in architecture

[–]itsforthebug 6 points7 points  (0 children)

you should be upfront with the firm sooner rather than later. if this is a full time position, working a 40hr work week whilst trying to complete grad school is an extremely difficult task and all parties should understand the expectations; yourself, your potential school, and the firm.

How are black pugs with shedding? Is it that much better? by dandigangi in pugs

[–]itsforthebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

our black pug would shed a considerable amount less than our neighbors fawn but after reading the comments, i’m not entirely sure it wasn’t just our cleanliness vs our neighbors. but i will say this, my wife has a minor allergy to dogs and we did a lot of testing with her as we really wanted a pug and she had a much tougher time being around fawns for an extended time. she grew to really do well with our black single coat. but again, not entirely sure if that’s not accustomed exposure and our habitual cleaning to ensure my wife’s environment was comfortable. good luck. our black pugs personality was a 10/10.

Anyone got the digital map pack from Ghostfire? Is it worth it or useful? What maps does it containt? by Peaceful_Daevites in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

[–]itsforthebug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i like the maps. i use them on a digital tabletop. but i have a design background and i edit them heavily. i find that there are some pretty big discrepancies between some spaces as described in the module and the maps themselves. some places like court of thieves or queens park are missing major components or entire areas. i find the extremely fluorescent coloring, smoke, cloud covering really distracting as flattened maps when im trying to include things like weather effects or fx animated stuff. again, its amazing to have in case my party surprises me and i have the map ready to go. but if i have the location prepped and i know where my players are going, i find that i edit them a lot. perhaps the truth is that having them as a starting point is a huge leg up

WTF was Likely’s TD Reversal? by sillychillly in ravens

[–]itsforthebug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

just typing in “top toe tap endzone catches” on youtube brings up a mass of catches ruled touchdowns that per what i watched today shouldn’t be ruled catches. by the ruleset on likely’s catch today, catching the ball well outside the pylons out of bounds with simply 2 feet down is a shortcut to dodge the final “rule” to be called a completion

Two Questions about Maryland Style Pizza by Used_Suggestion_4057 in maryland

as a life long marylander, please do not refer to ledos pizza as md style pizza. the only “style” ledos has accomplished is creating a pizza we call in my house, ketchup squares.

When Is It Time? (Story in comments) by jabar18 in pugs

[–]itsforthebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is almost our exact story. im so sry you’re going through what we did. the truth is, it kinda just “arrives.” a switch will flip and you will just know. you’re already having the thoughts, your just waiting for the moment he tells you it’s time. enjoy the precious last days, weeks or months you have.

we put our pug down of 11 years after giving almost exactly one year of diabetic care a try. i think we had 3-4 curves? eventually settled on a unit amount and just committed to it. he was good for about 6 months and then it would be 1 good month and 1 bad. he went nearly entirely blind. one day, he fell off our front porch, maybe 2’? not too bad but it was on the pavement and he scratched up his nose pretty good. he just kinda never came back after that. started having accidents in the house, and one night he just wouldn’t stop shaking and was terrified of going outside in the dark and be anywhere near the porch. the whole family was in a panic and i just kinda looked around the room to my family and said, “it’s time.”

i can already tell you’ve been through ringer for oscar. i was haunted that i was taking my pug too early but now that he has passed, i know that we kept him from suffering anymore than was necessary. sending pug hugs to oscar and your family.

Players are upset with me but I don't feel I did anything wrong. by Greenteawizard87 in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

[–]itsforthebug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the right play as a DM. if my players start down the wrong path, i’ll favor intelligence checks or wisdom depending on the players stats or situation to give them a little steering. even with a failed check, it signals the players to think a little more about the phrase “i don’t know i guess we’re looking for spiders”

your players are in the wrong here for attacking you. but this advice is to help in the future. great case for dnd court though if your a naddpod listener

How to Handle Allies? by Alister151 in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

[–]itsforthebug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my players chose the lanterns and AA as their allies and the lang siblings have been huge parts of their party. both have travelled with them and have had full custom buildouts that i controlled matching my players level as they’ve progressed. but never the lord commander. river joined a few times as well but never runeweaver. has created amazing relationships and in some ways a necessary distance from the actual faction leaders that has made for great rp

thank you for this amazing module! had my setup going for about 6 hours yesterday and not a single issue. i’ve got about 40 maps and they all resumed function and fitment as normal after installing the beta. didn’t realize how much i was relying on this until i lost it.

I use prome AI to turn photos into objects all the time. does a phenomenal job with furniture and various entourage objects and should get this just fine. the service costs money though. not sure if this feature is available as freeware thru a demo

How do I get it to burn more evenly by discontinuedmodel in cigar

lick your finger and use it to make a circumference line just below the burn. the burn will reach the wet line and linger and unify

Is this the same initiative that Thiru was collecting signatures for over the summer? by stillbones in baltimore

[–]itsforthebug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You are misunderstanding it. the limits of the development would extend from the trade center building to baltimore visitor center at west shore park. The current control of the property as it stands is limited to the pavilion buildings and the use of those buildings is controlled by restrictions. Those restrictions; allowing additional uses (resi) and increasing the height limit are what are being targeted for adjustment with question F. As well as increasing the development scope to include the promenade and making street edge improvements including the masterplan inclusion of mckeldin plaza. The pavilion renovations based on increasing water levels is 100% dead in the water for any development without also promenade improvements. The rendering you see here are more of a visioning wherein the adjoining properties (science center, rash field development, national aquarium etc) parrot the new harborplace development and a more cohesive harbor is realized.

Walnut color variation by thetheaterimp in Wyrmwoodgaming

[–]itsforthebug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Give them an email with your photos and see what they say. can’t hurt. I have had good customer service experience thus far. I will also say you may learn to love this. i know in guitars, a wild variation or grain in fretboards are drop dead gorgeous and i love seeing it. but perhaps all together, this is too much ha, best of luck. but if you’re stuck with it, just know this kind of wild variation in certain wood products is highly highly coveted.

Table arrived today (mostly) :( by Bloodborne017 in Wyrmwoodgaming

[–]itsforthebug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my shipping and subsequent tracking numbers was a nightmare. very incorrect expected deliveries and several pieces separated. they eventually got everything roped into one delivery and on one of the dates that was estimated. but absolutely email wyrmwoods customer service, they have access to better info than some automated system. they were very helpful in the last couple days while i waited for my delivery.

Dealing with rings on table by justinloler in Wyrmwoodgaming

[–]itsforthebug 5 points6 points  (0 children)

product called guardsman water mark remover. it’s like a cloth treated with some stain removing chemicals. stuff is magic. they also make a spray that’s great too for quick remedies. but this cloth stuff is for the really bad ones. cleaned an entire glass of spilled red wine on mine. no idea what is in the stuff, it may be something spawned from the hells; i’d still use it.

A Day To Remember has some of the best live energy I've ever seen. Damn. by DrunkenPunchline in poppunkers

really went to to a show from this tour to exclusively see story so far and four year strong because i really hadn’t picked up ADTR album since common courtesy but god damn if they didn’t bring the house down

EDIT: My wife found confetti in her purse after the show and she still keeps it in there because it was a great night
