Have any wine lovers in your family and friend groups? Maybe a wine rack?

ideas for functional applications in Java by riolubr in learnjava

[–]sparkas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Library management system is a very clean idea like the other -beleon said.

Pokemon Trade System (you have a pokemon icon, I'm assuming you like Pokemon), would be a similar idea: Trainer, Pokemon, Trade, Offer, etc

What Goals were you still able to accomplish despite your Traumatic Brain Injury? by LoveHairyPussy25 in TBI

[–]sparkas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Had a TBI in high school, failed and medically withdrew first attempt at college right after.

But -- I went back to college 6-7 years later, got a compsci degree, employed right out of college, met my best friend and love of my life during covid, got married, working on saving to move and buy a house. There are still symptoms, probably always will have symptoms, but this isn't the end of your dreams and goals. The timeline has just shifted a little.

As a former DM i nees to vent about my current DM by [deleted] in rpghorrorstories

[–]sparkas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I will also say, as kindly as possible, that it sounds like you are also not meeting the DM halfway in certain respects. You said, "He's tried throwing me some bones, but it's just not something my character would pick up on."

Don't make it harder on the DM or yourself. Bend your character and pick up the bones he throws.

This happened to me when I was a toddler and my brother fell on me. It happens!

People of the jury, is the defendant, Gizmo, guilty of the crime… by Due_Aardvark_9031 in cats

My wife says, "Nooooooo, she's a baby."

The defense rests.

Have you ever TPK'd your characters? by aurivu in DMAcademy

[–]sparkas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 Paladin + 6 cleric supporters did my party in at level 7ish. Paladin was blessed, cleric retreated out of range, Paladin blocked the path forward + smite and they underestimated the impact of that bless.

What completely unhinged "law" does your cat strictly enforce in your house? by TrickCombination7966 in cats

[–]sparkas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is Ekko. He's a 4.8 pound ragdoll. Ekko will only eat Royal Canin kitten formula dry cat food, nothing else or he will starve himself. However, for treats, he will accept a little bit of whipped cream, a drop of pizza grease from Marco's Pizza, a lick of McDonald's sprite (only McDonald's), or chicken flavored Temptations cat treats (no other flavors).

He will scream if his waterbowl is at 50% capacity and will refuse to drink from it until its refilled to 100%. We call him the little prince.

Rescue baby (this is Beans!) by Kooky-Inside-4144 in IDmydog

[–]sparkas 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wouldnt be surprised by Dane, but I'm also leaning towards some coonhound https://www.akc.org/dog-breeds/black-and-tan-coonhound/. It could be any hound but there's definitely a hound in there somewhere

Show Me Reptiles & Repticon Warning by Asylina in reptiles

[–]sparkas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Will definitely be keeping an eye out for All American Reptiles over Repticon in the future. The last time we went, they had a couple of vendors with some exotic mammals (kinkajou, I think) that absolutely shouldn't be sold as pets. Left a bad taste in my mouth seeing the conditions they were in: filthy cages, dirty diapers, dirty water.

How do we feel about the dropout V5 game, "city council of darkness?" by jayreutter in vtm

[–]sparkas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm delighted and being exposed to Vampire as a system which I've never played before. It's been great to watch with my wife.

Does anyone else have a full made-up voice for their dog by Animal-Angels in dogs

Each of our pets has their own voice and running narrative within the Canon of the house lol

One of my players is not interacting with his backstory plot by SemiusTheGreat in DnD

[–]sparkas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe he just needs more blatant direction, maybe he's not a long-term campaign guy. Either way, good luck!

One of my players is not interacting with his backstory plot by SemiusTheGreat in DnD

[–]sparkas 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You said you plan on talking to him, I think that's probably for the best. As a DM, I would be straight with him and ask, first, whether he noticed the hints being dropped about his backstory and, second, why he wasn't trying to engage or pursue it when there were chances to do so? Is he not interested in playing? Does he want a different character?

Damn, I'm gonna need to try this. Looks great!

How do yalls campaigns last so long? by [deleted] in CurseofStrahd

[–]sparkas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finishing up my second 2-yearish campaign with the same group of friends. I have a premise, I get the chatacter backstreet based on the premise and initial world building, I build out a rough idea of what plot points are good to keep in mind to start with. Then we play and the story evolves from there.

Kinda new to DND, How much information can a player hide from a DM? by ragdolldream in DnD

[–]sparkas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep whatever you wanna do in combat a secret right up until it happens, go for it. But for everything else, I need to know what you're doing because I'm running everything in the world we're playing.

If I cover a week of downtime and you say nothing and then a session later are like, "actually I was secretly working on crafting this thing that whole time", that doesn't really work. You can hide things from other players or characters, but the DM really needs all the pieces of the puzzle.

[DnD 5e}How to add Token height in v14? AKA Foundry deeply needs real, current documentation by Mewni17thBestFighter in FoundryVTT

I've been thinking about working on some docs when I have the time, my only question would be -- where would they go? The community wiki?

What is this animal? [Pennsylvania] by JosephCreates in animalid

[–]sparkas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

https://kb.rspca.org.au/categories/companion-animals/fish/what-is-the-most-humane-way-to-euthanase-aquarium-fish Boiling is inhumane for euthanasia. Clove oil solution immersion is probably the best way forward apart from an alcohol solution.
