4. Boot the host normally.
The British Library is doing a few talks inspired by the 50th anniversary of D&D.
This one has Ian Livingstone (Fighting Fantasy, Games Workshop/White Dwarf, Domark/Eidos) talking about the early years of #RPG gaming.
Added Rowan, Rook & Decard to Libreture's list of DRM-free bookshops. π
Publishers of Eat The Reich, Die, Heart, Spire, Honey Heist, Unbound, Goblin Quest, and many other tabletop games, their mission is to create awesome moments through exciting, beautiful, clever games.
For prototyping I can recommend @penpot. No AI and it's free to use.
You can self-host it, because it is free as in open source. And beer. And freedom.
@stubbornella one more reason for all #Figma users to give the OpenSource @penpot a try instead
A good #dualstack network should still run #dns64 and #nat64, so that it can fully support #ipv6 only devices and allow them a way to connect to legacy (ipv4) internet sites. https://sgryphon.gamertheory.net/2022/12/running-nat64-in-a-dual-stack-network/
We like it when you buy our games.
We LOVE it when you play them.
So next week we're launching Dice Pool to help you run a great session of Blades in the Dark, Monster of the Week, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, and Fate.
Run a great #ttrpg session with confidence!

π blog! βThe complexity is the attraction - reflections on trying to use cryptoβ
A few weeks ago, someone wanted to send me some crypto. After spending months studying for a Blockchain exam, I usually avoid such things. But, hey, $20 is $20. So I signed up for a wallet, installed an extension, verified my credentials, saved a seed phraseβ¦

I fell down a rabbit hole this evening reading old blog posts about The Forge, Ron Edwards, and GNS/Big Model #TTRPG theory.
Reasons why Matrix can be better for diversity than closed platforms:

Our openness makes us stronger!

Julian Assange is free. He left Belmarsh maximum security prison this morning, after having spent 1901 days there. He was granted bail by the High Court in London and was released at Stansted airport during the afternoon, where he boarded a plane and departed the UK for Australia.
After more than five years in a 2x3 metre cell, isolated 23 hours a day, he will soon reunite with his wife Stella Assange, and their children, who have only known their father from behind bars.

Just a note saying how my #Fediverse experience has been made immeasurably richer for being able to take in and engage with carefully curated #Threads users, #BlueSky bridged users, #WordPress ActivityPub enabled blogs, Federated #Podcast episodes, #PixelFed photos, and Peertube videos. All from one Mastodon account. This works.
And I'm grateful for the moderation tools to mute, block and curate all of this, and the Mastodon lists to make them all digestable and not just info overload.
@FediThing I absolutely agree that each server admin needs to take actions too to moderate not just leave it to individuals. And I think it fine that some communities choose to block threads.
Thus far at Indieweb social 871 of our users follow over 3,600+ threads users, have seen over 153K posts and we have had ZERO tickets issued for any threads user. Could this change as Threads fully federates? Sure. But so far so good.
They say everyone's a critic.
If you are everyone, here's a rough draft of an RPG oneshot, in need of a critic.
It's all fantasy, and slightly horror.
To all TRPG developers, Fabula Ultima released their third party license today in a surprise drop. It was shockingly nice to developers: you can copy rules text, unrevokable, you own your work, no fees, commercial.

I just went on a follow-fest for women with a PhD, but realized I'm already mutuals with almost everyone who shows up in the limited search results π
If you're a Dr. Gal or other female science communicator type, pop into the thread, say hi!
I'd love to learn about what you do π
(and I'm sure lots of others would too)
