What are you going to do, no matter how small, to make the world a little better?
  • I want to participate more with the food banks in my area.

    My parents struggled when I was growing up. They'd bend over backwards to make sure my siblings and I always had food on our plates and clothes on our backs. While they're better off now, I still remember the times when they wouldn't eat to make sure there was some for us.

    I used to be more active as a teen when I was in the boy scouts, but now that I'm working full time, I want to get more involved again.

    If nothing else, people should never have to go hungry

  • Absolute genius
  • It was common in the 2000s and early 2010s for people in voice chats for games to claim they fucked your mom; usually people who were clearly teenagers.

    Guess it was one of those things where you had to be there to get it

  • Do you use both a personal desktop and laptop?
  • I'm not sure how much of an outlier I am, but for me it usually goes

    • desktop for more demanding games or if I'm playing with friends. Also use it for running dnd sessions
    • laptop for writing, productivity stuff, or anything else where I don't need a lot of power or if I'm on the go.
    • my phone is usually used for scrolling or other time waster apps

    How much I use each one really depends on the day

  • What's your hottest character idea that you didn't get to play (long enough)?
  • In the first campaign I ever played in, I ran a necromancy wizard that was neutral good.

    Basically, he grew up a hermit and has zero awareness of the taboos surrounding his school of magic. However, because of his alignment, he has a very different approach to how he uses his magic.

    Whenever he has to raise undead to fight for him, he does it by asking for their aid rather than outright raising them. He approaches the practice more as a way to preserve the lives of the living rather than a way of amassing servants or power. When he no longer needs their help, he thanks them and tries to make sure they either return to their resting place or are given a proper burial.

    His overarching goal is to ensure everyone lives a long, full life and wishes to find a way to resurrect others in the way other classes can to help achieve that goal.

    Didn't get to play him for long since the group kinda fell apart

  • Trump's Truth Social loses $4 billion in value in one week, while revealing wider loss
  • Then let's assume the people in charge want Trump back in office. Wouldn't it just make more sense to make political contributions to him and others sympathetic to his platform? That carries less reputational risk than investing in a known to fail platform.

    Plus it's worth mentioning that those are assets under management ; they have to answer to their investors for every time they allocate. They can't just freely swing that around like most people think

  • Trump's Truth Social loses $4 billion in value in one week, while revealing wider loss
  • Bud, I know it's pretty easy to jump down into conspiratorial rabbit holes whenever talking about Blackrock, vanguard, etc but let me ask you this:

    Which sounds like a more solid plan? Investing in a platform that was dead in the water from the start, with no financial future. Or just donating to a bunch of politicians that are okay with your business practices?

    I'm not saying they aren't causing a good bit of harm but you don't become the largest investment management firm on the planet by being that stupid

  • Quest 1 becomes near-E-waste Apr 30
  • I can't speak for the quest directly but I've used programs like sidequest to load homebrew games onto my quest 2. It's also really easy to do so I don't think they're quote going to be e waste yet

  • What brought you over to Lemmy?
  • There was a subreddit I used to be very active on that practically got nuked by the company during the protests. They kicked all of the mods off and replaced it with their own, leaving a huge mess behind.

    A good number of them started over from scratch on Lemmy and I followed them here. Haven't really looked back since

  • Sometimes winging it is the best strategy

    Gamers. What was the game that got you into the hobby?

    281

    video game logic was heavily used in this part of the dungeon for sure

    party quickly learned attacking the rug only made things worse

    This happened a fair bit ago but haven't had the chance to share it with the reddit fiasco. Hopefully some people enjoy the campaign memes here!
