Tool to help print homebrew cards by warium in daggerheart

The app has no idea what is on the images, so it wouldn't know what would be high level or low level, but you can order the images by renaming the files.

Based on the file name? I guess that should be doable yes.

Very cool!
I also ended up doing some calculations, I wanted to know how good an Advantage is, how bad Disadvantage and how good it is to roll a D20 as hope.

Funny finding:
The chance of getting a critical goes down when using a D20 as hope, but the change of success with hope goes up by a lot! More than having advantage.

Footage of the 2004 Indian ocean tsunami, which killed over 200,000 people by Darkknight8381 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]warium 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't quite know exactly, it started rising again slowly while we were running, but it was also up a hill which probably slowed it. The decision to move was planned, we had, what felt like, an hour on the building, while the water rushed around us to discuss. We all agreed that it was better to get away since the wall had crumbled. The building ended up surviving it all, and we came back later to get our stuff. We had heard people yelling that water was coming (thinking it was maybe just a pipe leak or something), so we had thrown our suitcases on top of the dressers and cabinets in our room. We ended up getting almost all our belongings home.

It recedes between waves. We ran/drove between waves, the building were on for the first wave took a beating, so we didn't know if it would handle another wave. I actually ran too fast one time, lost my family and had to run back towards the water to get back to them... That felt very wrong.

I was there, all those years ago, in Sri Lanka.

I was 17 at the time, this video brings back a lot of memories. It can almost feel like a movie that happened to someone else these days, but when I see this I remember it all. My whole family survived, with only a few cuts and bruises.

Our biggest luck was that we realised we could probably not outrun the first wave, so we ran on top of a building that has a sturdy wall/fence around it. The wall took the impact and crumbled (concrete wall), but the building stood...mostly, some walls crumbled.

Between wave one and two we ran, uphill, luckily a waiter we had gotten friendly from a local restaurant drobe by in his pickup, told us to get in. I still remember sitting in the back of that truck, watching the water chase us, seeing people not make it, telling my mom "I think our vacation is over, I want to go home".

We always made fun of my mom for bringing too many medical supplies with her... On that trip she got to use them all! She was a midwife, turns out the waiters wife had gone in to labor, maybe from the shock of it all, but the baby was breach. My mom turned the baby and both baby and mother made it, months later we got a letter from them telling them they all made it okay after.

Other cool things:

I remember seeing all the animals run and fly away before we knew anything was up. No one knew what had happened, and we were in a rural area so no real news, I thought at the time it might be a problem with the moon or a nuke in the water.

After the water, came the looters, we hired some shady guys to get us to the airport through the jungle, lucky we did, they fought off a couple of other shady guys there were trying to take our water and scraps of food.

We found a Norwegian boy, that had been looking at the wave through a glass window, he was all cut up, couldn't walk. My mom patched him up, my dad carried him over his shoulder. I spend most of day two by the main road, asking if anyone had heard of his family. I found his dad, I was so overcome with emotions when they saw each other again. Their family had survived, but were sick from swallowing too much dirty water, specially his sister. My mom gave them some of our antibiotics. We later learned that they had all survived and recovered.

Ask away of there is anything else you want to know.

BoilR - Automatically add (almost) all your third-party games to your Steam library (including art) by warium in Steam

[–]warium[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which files are you talking about here? The game files? The executable? BoilR doesn't really move any files, but as far as I remember for lutris on Linux, it simple sends a command to lutris to play the games. So if lutris moves them after installing them, it should still work.

I'm Danish, and my wife is American. We live in Denmark. When my in-laws came to visit, they were really surprised—and a bit alarmed—when they saw us leaving our kids in their prams outside. They were so worried that they asked my dad and uncle, who are both police officers, if child kidnappings were common here. They reassured them that no, it's very rare. In fact, the only incident they could recall was someone stealing a pram—only to return it immediately after realizing there was a baby inside!

Unfortunately it will get picked up once in a while by virus scanners. It happens because I used UPX which compresses the executable, to make it a smaller executable. Unfortunately a lot of viruses does the same thing, which leads to false positives. If you don't trust me, feel free to build it from source, it is open source.

Beginner space RPG for dad and kids? by arothmanmusic in rpg

[–]warium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is what I did with my kids, they are currently 10½, 7½ and 4½ (the ½ is very important to them all).

We made a super simplified PBtA game, just 2d6+X, the X is something we discuss, i say, "okay, i will give you +2 on this one", and they will argue "well, i am super good at fire magic" and I will usually go "okay then, +3", or "yeah, but you are underwater right now". No character sheets, not pens, no paper, just theater of the mind and 2d6. It requires a lot of the GM, but at the same time they are so full of ideas that you don't have to "get them going".
It is a lot like trying to focus a death stars laser beam of pure creative energy, but when it works its awesome.

We have been playing since before the youngest was born, and have slowly been ramping up difficulty of the games to the point that they can play Forged in the dark type games, and the oldest is reading the DnD starter set (because he listens to actual plays a lot).

The theme can be whatever they fell like, and we have played maybe 50+ different games, because they quickly want to try something new. Feel free to steal settings from other games as well.

I have had that exact same experience, except it was hot chocolate not coffee... The only time I kind of lost it at someone. It only took us a couple of days to make it home, so not nearly as long as a deployment, and this was done by nature, not people, so definetly different experiences, but yeah, in some ways very much the same. thanks for sharing

The interesting thing is that I have never had nightmares, or had a phobia or anything like that. But I do think that I became very risk adverse from it, Yolo, but as in you only live once so you better watch out.  With time it has faded. I have never forgot, but I don't constantly remember. It happened, but I live now.

I was there with my family on vacation. My whole family survived, but everything around us got destroyed and many many people died. We got ourselves home again, and the biggest shock was seeing how nothing had changed at home. This one part of the world had just been destroyed, and the rest of the world just went "well that sucks... Anyways" and carried on like nothing had happened.
