I think that not being able to get ahead without parental help is explicitly a symptom of that.

False. The one with the elephant in the middle accomplishes things. Terrible things. I'll take do-nothing over do-wrong

That's the hope. If we're gonna have a fascist state, at least let it be a bumbling incompetent fascist state.

What media has your favorite worldbuilding? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world
[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 8 points 20 hours ago

I consider lore and worldbuilding to be related but different concepts. Lore is the details of your world, worldbuilding is the way you deliver those details.

My favorite example of worldbuilding is The Dark Crystal, both the film and series. The lore is standard fantasy stuff, but the intricacies of the world are so rich and they unfold so naturally. It felt like a real world, and I felt like very little of what I learned about that world was simply narrated to me. The world was built through tiny details, interactions and observations, throwaway lines of dialogue, and effectively so.

I got a tub of protein powder or something that had a scoop perfectly portioned for my morning cup. I've been using that for years

What’s an album you thought you would like at first but ended up disliking after listening to it? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 4 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

The Mars Volta in general. Tons of friends have recommended them to me after hearing some of what I listen to, and it's just not my jam. On paper I should, but alas.

No, but the extra ones will

How could we convince Reddit subs to move over to Lemmy? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 1 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

It can be frustrating to go from a thriving niche subreddit to a new venue without anyone to populate those niche communities. Outside of ML, FOSS, and Star Trek, most of the niche communities are ghost towns.

I don't think anyone is suggesting convincing AskReddit or /r/memes to migrate. I think they're mostly targeting /r/ObscureInterestYou'veProbablyNeverHeardOf.

Breezeway Greenhouse Help? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I've got an appx 12' x 24' space between my single story house and tall metal barn garage. The roof of the house slopes toward the space.

I want to convert it into a greenhouse so I can grow veggies without having to chase off critters. Ideally I should be able to install gutters that drain to a rain barrel.

I'm hoping some of you fine folks have resources and recommendations for this kind of project.

This moon decoration my wife got (sh.itjust.works)
 

Looks innocuous enough at first glance right? Let's zoom in on the problem:

These don't go together. If the semicircle on the left is correct, then this is showing moon phases, and the symbol on the right should be of a gibbous moon:

If the cookie-with-a-bite-taken-out in the right is correct, then this is showing an eclipse, and the symbol on the left should be of a 50% partial eclipse:

It drives me crazy every time I look at it.

Bambu X1C Purge and Prime (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm considering pulling the trigger on an X1C but the waste is a huge turn-off. I know there are options for purging to infill or a sacrificial object, but last I heard there's still a considerable amount of purge/prime. Can someone who's played with the settings tell me honestly how much progress has been made in reducing waste?

Setup for TTRPG GM assistant? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Still pretty new to local LLMs, and there's been a lot of development since I dipped my toe in. Suffice to say I'm fairly swamped and looking for guidance to the right model for my use

I want to feed the model sourcebooks, so I can ask it game mechanic questions and it will respond with reasonable accuracy (including page references). I tried this with privateGPT a month or two back, and it kinda worked but it was slow and wonky. It seems like things are a bit cleaner now

Crunch Sweet Spot (sh.itjust.works)
 

Let's kick off some activity here with a question:

How much crunch do you, personally, like in your games?

Ultra Lite? Lite? Basic Set? Every book you can get your hands on?

Light on combat, heavy on skills? Vice-versa? Light overall with some aspects way more fleshed-out? Heavy overall with some aspects way more simplified? Are there specific mechanics you like to take full advantage of? Mechanics you like to gloss over?

No wrong answers, let's just get some discussion going
