I feel like the pandemic showed the cracks in the status quo, and ever since things have gone back to “normal,” employers are trying to nudge things back to the pre-pandemic status quo. People have seen other possibilities through those cracks, and business has no idea how to deal with it.
Today, the Dell XPS-13 with Ubuntu Linux is easily the most well-known Linux laptop. Many users, especially developers – including Linus Torvalds – love it. As Torvalds recently said, “Normally, I wouldn’t name names, but I’m making an exception for the XPS 13 just because I liked it so much that I also ended up buying...
Playing in person, I made a lot of papercraft maps and items to get a very 3D feeling on the cheap. It was a lot of work, but my players loved it.
My current game is fully remote, and I’m finding I like creating digital stuff for Foundry even more than I liked papercraft. For non-combat stuff I set up splash screens with a piece of art showing the location, and then pop-up insert images with portraits of NPCs they meet. When it comes to combat, there are lots of really quality battlemap creators out there, with a lot of free options.
I have a combination of cyclotron ballista and rocket launcher on my fighter. It’s fun, but the rocket launcher doesn’t always kill enemies in one shot when the shields are down. Bummer :-) What do you use for that overwhelming sense of power in space?

I played a Kenku monk in a game a few years ago, and we were on a ship crossing the ocean. I was up in the crow’s nest (ha), when we were attacked by a flock of harpies. I jumped onto one of them and wrestled it luchador-style in midair, the entire time feeling thrilled to finally know what it felt like to fly.
