...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is something you've done that you believe very few other people have done? Only one caveat: it can't be cool or jealousy-provoking.2·2 months ago…when i trained as a rescue diver, i learned that it’s not drowning unless you die: if you survive, it’s a near-drowning…
…two-thirds a dram of scotch whisky…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's something that's seen as Obsolete, but isn't?10·2 months ago…for fine drafting, rotation is the last thing you want: that chisel-tip is precious, lead holders are love, lead holders are life…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why don't Americans plant trees and bushes of stuff that they can eat in their houses instead of having useless grass?7·2 months ago…pretty much this: you’ll be fined for anything other than well-groomed grass growing in your yard…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is something you've done that you believe very few other people have done? Only one caveat: it can't be cool or jealousy-provoking.6·2 months ago…i climbed onto the roof of the press box over kyle field and peed into the open air hundreds of feet below: it evaporated before hitting the ground…
…the craziest part was that it wasn’t there throughout the entire show: during that particular set, it loomed up from nowhere behind the stage and then lurched out over the crowd, or at least those of us who had pushed up front on the floor…
…i’ve seen some pretty epic shows by some pretty epic bands, but the last time i saw muse play, i did not expect to see a F*CKING HUNDRED-FOOT MECHA lunge out from the stage…
…trinitrons are curved, just two-dimensionally…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Is there a high quality offline map/globe/atlas software like how Encarta used to be?2·2 months ago…if you’re into paper books (and a hefty table) the DK complete world atlas includes a lot of geographic information, or if you prefer a dryer, more-authoritative presentation, the times world atlas is the grandaddy of the format…
…it looks like DK also offers a digital version of their previous editon…
(i have the millenium editions of both atlases, and they’re both fantastic tomes, but i think the DK complete atlas is more of what you’re looking for)
...m...@ttrpg.networkto World News@beehaw.org•Kremlin is 'totally stunned' by Trump's concessions to Putin, former Russian official says4·2 months ago…it’s what he avoids: russian carrots are accompanied by russian sticks and trump’s kompromat runs decades deep, capital-punishment deep at this point…
…his only course of survival is to double-down on whatever his handlers ask of him…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•People with long hair, Have you just accepted having your hair hitchhike on your food into your mouth?481·2 months ago…i tie back my hair or tuck it behind my ears when i eat…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Gaming@beehaw.org•What's your "this is totally fine and I'm going to have a great time" FPS (refresh rate). ?1·2 months ago…back in the CRT era i needed at least a 72Hz refresh rate to not feel any discomfort; that doesn’t exactly correlate with framerates on modern LCD displays but i think it’s a good proxy for the threshold of general perceptiblity…
…are greater framerates smoother?..sure, especially in my peripheral vision, but 72 FPS is generally good-enough beyond which returns start diminishing…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the largest Lego set you've ever built and would you do it again?1·3 months ago…ah, i can’t recall whether rivendell included two separators, but it was also packaged in sub-boxes with separate instruction books, which made teamwork a snap…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the largest Lego set you've ever built and would you do it again?1·3 months ago…we (my wife + myself) were so disappointed by barad-dûr afterward!..we didn’t buy it, so we haven’t built it, but based on the photos it’s neither inspired nor crafted to the same exceptional standard as rivendell…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the largest Lego set you've ever built and would you do it again?1·3 months ago…why does it include three pry-tools?..
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was the largest Lego set you've ever built and would you do it again?3·3 months ago…came here to post the same: we have a lot of flagship lego sets but rivendell is an unparalleled masterpiece, so exceptional that it makes almost everything else seem unworthy of shelf space by comparison…
...m...@ttrpg.networkto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What scientific fact blows your mind the most?2·3 months ago…homo sapiens sapiens: so wise we named ourselves twice…
…so the thing is that, after accounting for time dilation, light is instantaneous and perhaps better-described as the speed of causality…even a ‘perfect stick’ comprising quantum-crystal wonder-material can’t move before it’s pushed, so you’d find that it, too, transmits information at the speed of light…
…one’s a peter gabriel album and the other’s guns ‘n’ roses…
