  • Piss your pants on purpose to establish dominance.

  • This would have been really good for me to know about 20 years ago.

  • That's been my problem. It's overpriced for just a single camera considering I already manage a big storage pool that my other services can use. But do I want to lock myself into buying other Ubiquity IP cams down the road?

  • Don't the Ubiquity doorbells require a 'dream machine' storage appliance for recording video? I didn't think there was a way to use your own storage anymore which has been my main hesitation in getting one.

  • His friend? Albert Einstein.

  • Pandorum is great!

  • I'm quite partial to the basketball-sized black sphere with a lit fuse sticking out of it.

  • In Shakespearean times all cigarette girls were men.

  • Honestly adhering so closely to 5E means it inherits some of the same problems that the tabletop game has.

    Many spells are objectively bad or have very narrow use cases. Powerful enemies are immune to so many status effects that it limits the options for characters that aren't mostly focused on dealing damage. Dual wielding is ineffective compared to just carrying around the biggest great sword you can find. Etc.

    At least if you already know these quirks then you can work around them, but going back to play Divinity OS2 I think that Larian will be just fine without the D&D system/setting.

  • Why isn't this popular game from a popular studio even more popular?

  • I played the demo for this game so many times and was very hyped and then when it released reviews were so awful I ended up not buying it. I kept meaning to pick it up cheap but never got around to it.

    It really had a lot of potential. I kind of want to go pick it up now.

  • After 110 years millionaires aren't even bourgeois anymore.

  • What if I shape it like the Punisher logo instead?

    "Stop it Patrick! You're scaring him!"

  • The last few years have been really bizarre. In 2019 it really felt like my org was moving away from Microsoft. I'd just retired Skype and we were moving over to this new Microsoft Teams thing but the executive team was asking me about moving to Google Apps and dropping Outlook/Exchange/Sharepoint entirely, maybe we expand our Slack usage too? Then Covid happened and Teams turned into essential infrastructure overnight.

    Fast forward a few years and the entire Microsoft experience is now basically built around a Teams-first strategy. It's the main thing that my users care about and use on a daily basis. They want more things integrating with it and use it as a pathway into other Office products. Microsoft is making a real mess of things, but it's kind of crazy how fast they pivoted to meet the new needs of their users and keep them locked in.

  • I've taught myself CAD and am getting pretty competent at it. I've been 3d printing since 2014 so I'm proficient there too. I've designed lots of functional parts to solve problems for myself, and I'm getting more into doing pieces for costume design.

    What type of 3d printed stuff is actually profitable to sell? Every time I consider trying to monetize it a bit I go shopping around and think that there is no way I can design something that is a better quality or at a lower price than what is already available. Then I think about the hassle of having to manage printing and shipping and dealing with customers on top of my normal job and I think that it isn't worth it.

  • I'll harass myself if I have to. How dare I!

  • You're likely thinking of Empress who has a number of personality issues... transphobia definitely being one of them.
