That has got to be the worst choice in legible typesetting I’ve laid eyes on.

Saab Gripen. I believe that’s one of the Swedish camo schemes but can’t be sure and don’t have time for more research RN.

This concept should’ve been a slam dunk, and they blew it.

My next game of Cyberpunk on Sunday.

the LDS church controls $8.3 trillion in wealth. They could afford to flood Ukraine with biblically accurate fighter jets. These would cover more ground than bicycles in c/[email protected]

Okay, so I’m not a big fan of the LDS church, but can we talk about how unironically hard that Hornet regalia goes?

My own instance is fairly narrow in scope, and I don't think I can add it here. Is there a way to post a community in another instance?

As far as I remember, Dragon Age has been real time since Origins.

Any Sins of a Solar Empire communities? (ttrpg.network)
 

Since Sins 2 just came out today, I hopped on Lemmy and was wondering if anyone else around here plays it, and where you hang out?

TIL during the 2010 Commonwealth Games small monkeys roamed the Delhi streets and couldn't be removed because of religious reasons. So instead a larger species of monkey (The Colobinae) was brought in in c/[email protected]

Theater of the Mind Exploration Advice (ttrpg.network)
 

I am looking for ways to improve my exploration gameplay in a Theater of the Mind type game where there is no map and no need for detailed environmental descriptions, if that makes sense; I don't want to have to keep track of corridors and turns, and that sort of thing.

Ideally I would like a system or ruleset that allows me to randomly generate interesting exploration gameplay without relying on having to map out everything. Preferably system agnostic so I can use it in various games.

Here's an example of the sort of thing I'm looking for, but would like to see alternatives that are a bit more in depth, or have more options:

I remember the go to strategy being to summon an Alip, an incorporeal undead that can drain strength without needing a save.

TIL Adenosine is an organic compound that, when injected, stops the heart for a few seconds and is used to treat heartbeats, that are too fast (140-250bpm), in effect turning it off an on again. in c/[email protected]

Is this the stuff that causes the “impending doom” sensation? That stuff’s weird.

TIL that in 1563, Johann Weyer argued against Witch hunts and instead that the accused should be treated as having a mental illness. in c/[email protected]

I remember this guy. I cut off his friend’s head and stuck it through a mystic portal.

Pathfinder.social instance trouble (ttrpg.network)
 

I'm not sure if this is the proper place to ask this, but I don't know where else to go. I'm having trouble reaching the pathfinder.social instance; I can't seem to post, or subscribe to their communities. Is anyone else having issues?

Considering Starting Linux (ttrpg.network)
 

I have been using Windows my entire life, but since I got my Steam Deck I’ve been considering trying to get into Linux.

I obviously don’t have much of an idea where to begin, other than that I’m currently also trying to learn Javascript. I'd like a basic workstation I can code on and mess with, that doesn't run more than a couple hundred. Could use some recommendations for hardware plus where to begin.

Cyberpunk Tabletop Communities? (ttrpg.network)
 

I was wondering if anybody knew of any communities for the tabletop versions of Cyberpunk, specifically Cyberpunk Red.

Getting Tyrian 2000 to work on Steam Deck (ttrpg.network)

I know this might be a bit of a long shot, but I figured I would give it a go;

I am trying to get Tyrian 2000 to work properly on my Steam Deck, via installing it from my gog library on Heroic. While it managed to install correctly I have a few issues that need to be resolved before I can continue;

The controller support is non-existent. I am unsure if that is fixable, though I suspect I might be able to get around it by remapping the Steam Deck controls. Not really a problem though if anybody knows a solution I'd be happy to hear it.

The real issue is that the music is not playing. Sound effects work just fine, so far, but I don't get any music. I suspect it has something to do with Dosbox, given the age of the game in question.

I’m trying to put a vinyl skin on my Steam Deck, and I’m having trouble; it keeps wrinkling up at the bottoms of the grips. Any suggestions?

Memmy Link Question (ttrpg.network)
 

Hello. I’m new to Lemmy and Memmy both, and I had a question regarding its functionality. Is there a way to open a link in Memmy? I have a community I want to join but clicking the link just opens it in my browser, and for whatever reason I can’t find the community in Memmy’s own search bar.
