Of a half dozen pages on how to remove dual boot Linux (I'm giving an old computer to someone else) only one of them had a sanity check to change the default boot loader first, and make sure it was working (reboot a few times) before deleting the Linux partition. All the rest said to delete Linux first, then try and repaid/fix the boot, which seems quite crazy! The safe article: https://itsfoss.com/uninstall-ubuntu-linux-windows-dual-boot/

Took me a while, but just realised the Tesla models are based on l33t -- they even have t-shirt/clothes with S3XY on them. Nice.

I really wish more #IoT and #HomeAutomation companies had privacy/mission statements like Eve: https://www.evehome.com/en/privacy

I was there was the original OGL was created. I know first hand how hard those drafting it tried to sincerely make it so that it would last forever and would never screw over anyone that used it. So when we decided to create a Cypher System open license with the same goals, of course we used the OGL as a model. And now after two days of potential WotC shenanigans, people are looking at our open license as though it's dodgy. Sigh.

Well, I've spent the last couple of days torn between YouTube and the brand-new #DefendTheOGL Discord trying to keep track of what is... apparently... #Hasbro #WotC trying to single-handedly destroy the entire fucking #ttrpg industry.
I'm not losing much, saved again by my own incompetence, but I'm retooling my own projects to never rely on the fruits of Hasbro's poisoned tree ever again.

"GitHub is gradually rolling out support for IPv6. As GitHub services continue to add IPv6 support, we will start recognizing IPv6 addresses of GitHub users. To prevent possible access interruptions, please ensure you have added any necessary IPv6 addresses to your IP allow list."
Reading the old Player's Guide to Dragonlance as prep for when my wife runs the new campaign, and laughed when I came across this text on p105 describing the gods of magic and why Nuitari sounded so frightening: "The dark-haired child of Evil suffered from a throat impairment, which made him speak in hoarse whispers."
The drink was larger than expected. At Kinn+Dern for dinner #kinndermchermside

8. Favorite RPG for its art
There are lots of Rpgs with great art. But I love Eclipse Phase for its incredible setting and evocative art. And I love that their philosophy is to release everything via a Creative Commons license for non-commercial use.

Latest blog post up on #ttrpg mechanics: Success at a Cost, looking at the way failure is handled in different systems including #fate, #PbtA, #FitD, and #gumshoe. There is a final note on the many different ways that #characterdeath is handled. https://sgryphon.gamertheory.net/2022/12/30/rpg-mechanics-success-at-a-cost

Today’s social media status quo isn’t cutting it, so Mozilla is exploring an alternative here on Mastodon. In early 2023, Mozilla will be testing a publicly accessible instance in the Fediverse at Mozilla.Social. We will keep you updated, but for now learn more here: mzl.la/3BNXQMQ
