You need a method to quick jot stuff down in the moment. I use google keep for those thoughts/ideas. It’s on my phone, very low friction always to just pull it out and get something out of my head. Make it good later, just use your notes app (or an actual notepad if you’re oldschool) to get it out of your head so you can think of other stuff without worrying about losing it.

You mean y’all have adventuring parties that aren’t composed entirely of weird lil guys?

cybersecurity@infosec.pub•Adobe modifies hosts file to detect whether Creative Cloud is installed
3·2 months agoThey used to just hit http://localhost/:<various ports>/cc.png which connected to your Creative Cloud app directly, but then Chrome started blocking Local Network Access, so they had to do this hosts file hack instead.
Ok but adobe what if you didn’t portscan me either, please.

1·2 months agodeleted by creator
I’m not making fun of you I just thought it was a funny word :) Also, sorry about your butt.
Your worn items just kind of morph into your body when you wildshape. You don’t have to strip naked to go from humanoid to animal, for instance.
Magic is rare in most settings.
RAW that wouldn’t do anything though.

cybersecurity@infosec.pub•What are You Working on Wednesday
1·4 months agoSpent some time looking for ideas on how to do a security training (compliance requirement) that didn’t suck. Cribbing from some reddit posts, I think I’m going to give everyone a notecard with something like “Is Bob Bobson a client here”, have them pair up, and do a little phone conversation roleplay where one person is a visher trying to trick the other into revealing the piece of information, while the other person gets practice saying “No.” Seemed like a good way to let the staff dip a toe into thinking like an attacker.
Pretty terrible movie, all things considered, but it does have a very satisfying ending.

RPGMemes @ttrpg.network•Better don’t give martials any weapons and casters no spellcasting then…
8·5 months agoSpecialization is good, because when everybody in the party is good at one narrow field we all get to take turns doing cool things. If you make a character that’s good at everything, nobody else gets to do anything.

1·5 months ago“Matrix” is a pretty difficult-to-search name. What is it? Federated IRC?
There are some formats where inventory management becomes interesting again. We tried doing a Hexcrawl earlier this year and there was a lot of interesting gameplay to be had in the risk/reward management of how many supplies they wanted to carry vs how much they wanted to invest in pack animals, limiting their ability to carry loot back, carrying this vs that, guessing how much they’ll use before they can resupply or where future resupplies might be, gambling on whether to press forward and risk running out or turn back, that kind of thing. It’s just the more currently popular adventure structures right now (eg linear or branching narratives) where inventory tracking is superfluous.

RPGMemes @ttrpg.network•Auto-Balancing [Dungeons & Dragons]
541·6 months agoI used to only have one (seemingly) female friend, and then that friend transitioned, and I started to worry what it said about me that I only had male friends. Fortunately, a year or two later most of my other friends transitioned in the other direction and balance was restored.
Ooh, this looks neat. I don’t think I’d use it for spurious notes but it might be a good replacement place to do the making-it-good part
