A lot of people don't realize relationships take work.

It's two people who click and both compromise.

When things get difficult you shouldn't stew in it. Don't cheat or rebel. Open your fucking mouth and talk to your partner!

Be open and honest with each other.
Be open to compromise (this means to meet each other halfway. Not cave in or only your way).

Only after talking things out should you both decide to make a major change like moving on (or even an open relationship).

Since the huge push to SaaS I've seen plenty of companies that essentially run thin clients.

The local workstations are just thier access to login to X website that host thier apps and data.

Zero reason for them to switch to win11 or buy new hardware due to "incompatibility".

These end users can be trained to use mint or Ubuntu and be just as productive at work.

In my state being called into work requires a 3 hour minimum payment.

So a manager texting me to go respond to an email would be a 3 hour charge.

Our work culture was set to leave people alone off the clock due to this.

Now that I'm a salary employee I can see this being an issue. When I login in the morning I can see chatter at 11pm on work stuff.

Thankfully I'm not expected to answer to anything until my normal hours.

The American shoe store Payless tried to get away from this crap.

They stopped doing the raise and lower price model everyone else does and lowered all shoes to '"everyday low prices"

It failed horribly. They went back to raising prices and slashing prices and sales went up again.

It has to do with the shopper mindset. Everyone wants a deal.

So I bumped into a new series while going down the rabbit hole with no description. Cover art and title was interesting so I read a few.

Standard setup and back story. Might be interesting to see if anything unique stands out...

Then it kept jumping forward. The story progressed way too fast.

I realized it was a manhua.

I don't know why but there's always so much happening so fast it's hard for me to digest it all that I end up dropping it.

What are your thoughts?

Other manhua I've dropped:

  • Versatile Mage

  • My Wife is a Demon Queen

  • Monster Pet Evolution

I know someone kinda like this. They call it "Heteroflexible".

"I'm straight. But a mouth is a mouth."

Whatever dude. You're a Bi top who doesn't go all the way.

Apologies if this is the wrong instance for this.

Is there a best option for HTPC streaming solutions besides throwing Linux on an old desktop? Plugging in a desktop for streaming doesn't work too well for wall mounted televisions. My options are mini PCs or a 3rd party streaming stick. Even a RasPi stick running OSMC should do the trick.

These 3rd party sticks online are extremely tempting for power and features but I'm concerned about embedded malware. Best option would be to wipe it and load OSMCor raspbian to ensure its clean. Anyone have experience with this?

Care to share your setup?

Runner up: $12.90 | Orange Pi Zero 2 W 1GB RAM DDR4 Mini PC Allwinner H618 Orange Pi Zero 2W WiFi Bluetooth SBC Single Board Computer Zero2W | Link


Update: My ideal solution would be $20-$50 for a replacement to several fire sticks in my home. For a solution around $100 I'd just go with a old refurbished mini pc from ebay/amazon and throw full Linux on it.

Setting up Kodi via the linux OSMC distro or even Android TV both work. Might stream games with steam link. Eventually going to setup jellyfin in my home

Current Plan: Get a mini pc and mount it behind / near my television. Ideally I would prefer just a stick for a cleaner / cheaper solution.

Finally researched about the Orange Pi (rasp alternative) and the darn thing comes with full hdmi! Orange Pi 3B Full HDMI and SD / eMMC / M2 (sata3) slots!

I've heard of several cases in the USA where they combine unrelated things to mess with voters. Even this one is kinda related but school education plus internet censorship. Split that shit up and let the people vote for what they want.

Edit: it's a rider

[-] Landless2029@lemmy.world 205 points 5 months ago

That kind of shit should really be illegal

So I'm a long time fan and playing my first campaign. First big quest and we're in a fortress.

Pretty spent after an encounter and some traps. We see a sleeping BBEG in the way of our finish.

Cast pass without a trace to sneak past. Fighter in heavy rolls a nat 1 on his disadvantage.

So it's 1 + 1 dex +10 pass without a trace = 12

BBEG passive perception is 10. We sneak past.

WTH? I mean sure my PC is happy but I feel somehow disappointed in our DM giving us a pass.

I've DMd before and would've definitely woken up the boss.

I feel like DM gave us the pass cause it could've been a TPK.

Thoughts?

Edit:

Thank you everyone for your thoughts.

I was caught up in the homebrew rule of auto fail nat1s that is NOT in the PHB.

Rules as written we earned that easy win by taking advantage of the bosses low perception and spending a spell slot on pass without a trace.
