OK. How does it wash your ass?

Just seems like a lot of downside for a $350,000 device that can barely do the job of a shower.

"The user lies down..."

How does it wash your back?

I'm not surprised it's being attacked. Conservatives and neoliberals alike are terrified of how successful a model it is. We should be doing Sasktel style companies nationwide, for everything where simply nationalizing it doesn't make more sense. It's proof that there are ways of keeping consumer prices down without getting into the politically fraught territory of price controls. We should all be pushing for more of Sasktel, everywhere.

Man, the Canadian indie scene was crazy in the early to mid 2000s:

• Arcade Fire
• Broken Social Scene
• Of Montreal
• Metric
• Stars
• Feist
• Godspeed You, Black Emperor!
• Wolf Parade
• Death From Above 1979
• Neko Case
• Destroyer

Just absolutely nuts what was happening up here for a while.

For more modern alt there's the Arkells of course, and July Talk are incredible. Anyone who hasn't checked them out absolutely needs to; imagine if Tom Waits and Metric formed a supergroup and then added just the crunchiest guitars you've ever heard.

Only if someone throws some milk at him next.

It's actually a brilliant monetization model. If you want to use it as is, it's free, even for large corporate clients.

If you want to get rid of the puppygirls though, that's when you have to pay.

The worst part is that this failure will probably kill any chance of The Chinese Room getting to actually take a proper swing at this, from scratch, with time and a real budget. It really feels like if they were allowed to do that they would hit it out of the park. Bloodlines 2 is a much better game than the review scores suggest, mostly weighed down by the expectations people put in the Bloodlines name.

Correct. No matter how much noise Russia makes about the sanctions not affecting them, they desparately want them gone. They've been able to weather them better than originally predicted, but only by mortgaging today to pay for tomorrow. Their economy is starting to show serious strain. Investment is basically zeroed out, consumer spending is collapsing and they have a workforce shortage. It's getting dire.

They didn't say it's not defined, they said it's not a valid name. Most languages don't allow function names to start with a number, so 5 literally cannot be a function if that's the case.

But that's assuming this isn't some really obscure language.

Reminder that in Florida "pedophile" means "being trans in public."

This is about killing queer people, not child sex offenders.

Depends what you want to do with those character sheets.

If you just want a text file that people can paste their character sheet into, this will work: https://foundryvtt.com/packages/taf/ If you want to actually build full custom character sheets, you probably want something more like this: https://foundryvtt.com/packages/universal-tabletop-system/ Or this: https://foundryvtt.com/packages/custom-system-builder/

There's also a general purpose PbTA system that's meant to be customised into different PbTA hacks: https://foundryvtt.com/packages/pbta/

I guess in the sense that you have to load some kind of system to play, there's a requirement to use some sort of plugin, so maybe that's a dealbreaker. But it's generally not an issue. While premium content for Foundry exists, it's mostly in the form of rulebooks and scenarios that have been ported into it by the people who make and sell those games. The actual systems are all free, with literally only one exception (Brambletrek, for some reason).

So, it seems like the plugins don't really affect you either way then? If you don't want that added functionality, you're good to just not use it, right?
