Dealing with D&D5E Hate and Pathfinder 2E
I have been trying to get my partner into Pathfinder 2nd edition, and they do seem taken with it, however he’s been having some issues lately with PF2E. Notably, online. The more he gets into PF2E, the more hate he sees for 5E. He’s been playing 5E for years now and has invested a lot of time and love into the game, and to...

VR, Linux, and my Currently Unused Rift
I’m looking to getting back into VR gaming. However, with my switch to Linux, that has made things a little more complicated. I don’t own a Valve Index (although I’ve heard that there are some issues with the Index on Linux), I own a Rift CV1. As far as I’m aware, the Oculus Rift is pretty much completely incompatible...
FOSS Language Learning
Other than with like a PDF of a textbook (or a physical version thereof), I don’t know many FOSS apps/sites for learning a language whether its a fringe language with few resources like Te Reo Māori, Irish, or Georgian or a major language like German, French, or Spanish. Have y’all seen any sites or apps for this?...
Updating Liftoff for Lemmy
So I just updated Liftoff manually by downloading the APK from GitHub, however I feel like doing so isn’t the best way to keep the app updated outside of installing the app from the Play Store. I had heard of a way to keep it updated automatically with some app or service but I can’t remember the name. What is the best way...
A Move to a More Ethical Phone (Later)
So my roommate has informed me that Android and Motorola donate to Republicans more than Democrats whereas Apple does not, claiming this as a reason that the iPhone is better than an Android phone. While I could find statistics confirming the fact about Motorola, I don’t even know what they were referring to when they...
Android Auto De-googling
I’m on a quest to de-Google my life and that does include Android Auto. At the very least, I want to use more FOSS stuff if possible. I’m wondering if there’s any FOSS alternative to Android Auto....
Some Experimental Synth Music for your consideration by Yours Truly (wiresbranches.bandcamp.com)
These tracks are an assortment of tracks I made while studying modular synthesis in university and created with VCV Rack and Ableton Live. The link listed here is for my Bandcamp (as that supports me more than streams) but my music is also available on most major streaming platforms.

Pokemon Progression: Roadblocks?
So I'm currently playing through Pokemon Violet and I am enjoying. However, I've noticed something during my playthrough semi-recently that I've noticed whenever I play any Pokemon game: the level progression. Now in Pokemon Violet, it's open-world and also up to the player as to what path they take and what order they complete...
Bevy: How to Load Multiple Texture Atlases
So I'm currently working with Bevy to make a game with a style similar to that of Octopath Traveler. I'm using the bevy_sprite3d crate to render sprites in the 3D space. I'm currently working on writing the code for the battle scene of my JRPG. However, whenever I try to load multiple sprites into the scene, it gives me the...

Other Fediverse projects (en.wikipedia.org)
I had no idea of the size and variety of the Fediverse! It has me feeling a bit overwhelmed. I'm enjoying BookWyrm very much; it's the GoodReads/LibraryThing replacement I've been looking for for years....
What are peoples thoughts on games requiring always online? How does it affect your enjoyment of those games?
I'm currently playing Diablo IV (and having a blast with it) but finding one small gripe which I only think is going to get worse and probably stop me playing it completely in the long run....

Hello, World! (i.redd.it)
Seriously, what's up with big sites literally dying as we speak?
First all the bs with Twitter and Elon, then Reddit having an exodus to Lemmy (not complaining lol), then Twitch. Are we like, in an alternate self healing dimension or something?
DAE dislike the term "neurodivergent" as applied to ADHD?
Disclaimer: I have no quarrel with the mods using the term in the creation of this community. I understand why they chose it, as even if they share my disagreement with the term when applied to ADHD, there's not really a better inclusive term. "Mental illness" is really the only other option, and naming a community that would...
Users from before the current wave of Reddit refugees, how do you feel about the incoming monsoon of refugees?
I imagine there's excitement for the increase of activity but worries about the potential toxic side of Reddit coming along too....
