1. Too much to do, too little time and resources. And the more I do the more I find I need to also do.

Just to have it emphasized.

Unions work. Labour organization is effective.

Got a thudbuster on my gravel. It feels like it helps to keep the rougher road under control. On any other bike I wouldn’t bother.

Produktiviteten kommer när arbetaren mår bra. En glad arbetare är en bra arbetare.

That looks like a…

You know…

The thing…

A vulva.

I see two cleaned out threads. Must have been nasty in there.

Swede. Can only really relay what’s on the shelves. And that is mostly DnD, Pathfinder, Call of Cthulhu and various stuff from Fria Ligan (free league). Fria Ligan has Drakar och Demoner (Dragonbane), vaesen, Mutant etc. Not surprising that last one as it is a Swedish publisher releasing plenty of Swedish material.

Depends on what you want out of it, the level if automation etc.

Installing a system ruleset, adding a few modules and other things on that level is easy. If you can use an app store you are set. Writing custom things I have no clue about.

Finally using it. I’ve found it smoother than roll20 and fantasy grounds. Just not having to deal with roll20’s technical baggare is truly awesome.

In the end my impression is that on a technical level it is much easier to handle. Less figuring out how not to have the platform work against you and actually work with it.

You, depending on your ISP, may have troubles self hosting. There is the biggest technical hurdle.

I would bet all the pieces to make a better communication suite than discord are there. They just need to be put together into a package and marketed well.

An alternative for me is pretty much useless if it’s not an alternative for my groups. Those I use discord with. It is more likely we migrate to a corporate solution than a foss one.

Convenient, easy to use, large user base, one point registration for multiple communities, tends to simply just work.

But is it the best? Nah. And their increased monetisation drives are annoying.

Because it is cozy brewing by the crackling fire. My demands on the coffee at that point are low just that it feels like coffee. And it is a ritual - get to camp, start fire, brew coffe, drink coffe staring into the flames trying to divine the future.

Been thinking that I need a grinder to get fresh ground coffee while hiking as the season is starting. Still using old pre-ground from last year and it os not that good. Does the job and is better than the slush at work.

So I think I’ll need to get me a hiking grinder. And has to grind coarse as in the field i make kokkaffe (boilcoffee?). Or really fine to do something more akin to turkish coffee.

It appears I used wrong search terms and/or added terms not giving me what I want. Knowing what to search for is half the battle!

Those are some search terms that provided much better results!

I don’t know how much to read between the lines, but one can read Hasbro is to blame. Praise for WotC and the DnD team. Nothing for Hasbro…

Played a good bit of Kingmaker and while not as refined as WotR I think is very similar. I agree with you that the DoS chaos can be a bit monotone and is too much. But I’d take that over the environmental flatness of other cRPGs.

Stray Gods, a roleplaying musical. More of an interactive musical than something with deep gameplay features. Kinda like a point-and-klick but you choose where the musical number goes. Inbetween the numbers there is a whole slew of talking to folks, investigating scenes etc.

Would have passed over it as it was far from my regular cup of tea. So I’m glad I “stumbled” into Overly Sarcastic Productions critique of it. May be the Detail Diatribe of theirs I’ve been the most glued to. And then I needed to play it myself.

Or simply have study areas where the silence is enforced. Rest of the premises just demands calm.

As I barely have managed to squeeze in 5-10 hours of gaming per week this winter season the thought of spending 300+ hours in a single game is overwhelmingly daunting. A year with a single game. Ugh…

My best gaming experience this last year was with a short game that I knocked out in a weekend. Got a good satisfying experience and a conclusion to it. Git me rethinking things.
