    “Roll for initiative.”

    “Sorry, give me just a minute. I got logged out of my dice.”

      Better than “sorry, my d20 is disabled until I pay my yearly subscription fees, though they say d20+ rolls better”

        “You should get the Electrum tier. It comes with a +5 to all d20 rolls. It’s only $80 a month if you do a 5 year plan.”

    Would this not make the dice much harder to have a balanced weight?

    There is no way the internal battery is symmetrical in every direction.

      For Pixels, at least, a great deal of effort went in to making them perfectly balanced.

    I have those! The d12 doesn’t charge anymore after a few months, though. Sucks.

    EDIT I think people haven’t bothered to check what product this is, annoying as this is I think I’ll do myself and others a favour by explaining what this is:

    These are dice with LEDs in them, a sensor that tells when it hits a hard surface, and transparent digits on them. When you roll them, the sensor picks us a hit and the LEDs make the numbers blink for a few seconds. They come with a case you can connect via USB-C, each shape in the case has a charging pin, touching a small, metal surface on each die, through which they charge. In my case, even though the d12 is in the right position in its shape, it no longer charges. It’s still a black die with transparent digits, it just doesn’t blink, anymore.

          Lol it was a joke like it couldn’t roll if it was broken. How can a dice like that be stuck on a number 😁 eh

            Ah, it seemed to me you thought it had displays and determined numbers from a software RNG Now I got the joke 😁

              Hmm Lord Ryvan rolled yet another 20 with his display + rng dice. A bit suspicious I think. It’s a d12…

    Unfortunately they’re not shipping to the US because of tariffs right now, excepting what arrived before tariffs. Ask me how I know
