Yes, it’s a fancy way to save a tab. I just leave the tab open. Not a feature I want, so not something I want them to waste limited development time on. It’d be nice if it were through the bookmarks interface, so booarks could save state & history the way tabs do, but that’s not what’s proposed so I’d rather not have this. PWAs are a workaround to make up for the limitations of bookmarks.

PWAs were a feature I marked “want least”. I don’t like a cluttered home screen, I’d much rather just use bookmarks.

Tomato soup in a bread bowl, with cheese. Not quiche, the filling isn’t egg-based.

It’s delicious. And since the Italians call just about any round bread with toppings pizza (e.g. Bartolomeo Scappi’s pizza was cake with powdered sugar & saffron toppings) it’s pizza. As is New England clam chowder in a bread bowl!

Used it for the last few years. X just doesn’t work right with multiple monitors of different resolution.

You wouldn’t end up at a login screen, you’d end up in the last logged in user’s session.

No, they orbit around a common barycenter. Even if there were no other bodies in the solar system, that wouldn’t be exactly at the center of mass of the sun.

It’s the NIF. It’s a hydrogen bomb simulator, it’s not intended to become a power production mechanism. Roughly 0% of their budget involves researching how to turn single fusion explosions at most every few hours into continuous power output.

Scales great for getting around nuclear test ban treaties though, much quicker to retest than blowing up Pacific islands.

Motorola Razr IIRC. First smartphone was a Samsung Galaxy S.

I’m the same way. I’m happy with my life, overall, but of course there are improvements I could make. There is pleasure in achieving something long striven for, and there is displeasure in the striving. More money would achieve some of the things I want more quickly, but none are critical so the balance is better with a longer wait and lower stress.

It was making them trans, not gay.

DOH, skipped those two critical letters! Thanks for the correction.

Astronomers already use Julian Dates for various reasons. Right now it’s 2460261.2834606, it’ll be later by the time you read this. Julian dates/times are fractional days starting from January 1st, 4713 B.C. = 0. Just keep counting up from there.

Oh, I’d only do that if the players are similarly powergaming. If they’re not it’s unfair, if they are the base game balance becomes koring. The challenge should scale to the party!

Pretty much how I DM.

Bosses have prep time. Glyph of warding can be cast on a page in a book, with trigger conditions specified by the caster. E.g. when a good-aligned creature with ≥8 int comes within 10ft of it.

Explosive runes are 5d8 damage (dex save for half) per glyph.

Nothing says it can’t be cast on more than one page.

A 50 page book with a glyph on every page means 100 dex saves for 5d8 each. Evasion is nice but you’ll fail a save eventually.

Your “friendly” neighborhood lich has had time to prepare dozens of these. That tempting library full of magical books might just be a TPK.

As a “consolation prize” at least the player gets to roll 100 d20s at once! Multiple times if they survive the first book.

Budgerigars (small parrots).

They’re active, smart, and social. They fly.

So I made them a flight cage that takes up most of the room they’re in. I’d prefer a full walk-in aviary, but don’t have room in my apartment.

Cleaning isn’t bad, I just shop-vac out the litter tray & refill it with a 20lb bag of corn cob bits. Fresh food in the mornings, take it out & replace with pellets around noon. Clean water daily. Millet treats when I let them out (about an hour per day to interact with them).

Feathers get everywhere when they molt. And feather dust. Their room has its own HEPA filter.

Vet appointments are more expensive for exotics than cats & dogs. There are fewer exotic vets, and I always go to a board certified avian vet. Boarding when I go on vacation is also more expensive (about $50/day), especially since they’re flighted.

They’re not anywhere near as loud or destructive as larger parrots, but that doesn’t mean they’re quiet. Just means they might not damage your hearing from the next room. They wake up with the dawn, and let you know about it.

They’re extremely sensitive to airborne toxins (avian respiration is rather different from mammalian). That means absolutely no teflon cookware use, no air fresheners, etc.

Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Or anything Ed Wood directed, really.

Murphy’s Oil Soap for wood floors.

Worth trying. It’s already broken, you can’t really make it much worse. It’d probably work, and worst case you’re back where you started & paying for expensive shipping.

Copper or silver-based should be lower resistance. These conductive paints tend not to be very conductive, the carbon stuff is essentially making a thin-film carbon composition resistor. Good for repairing rear window defroster heating elements, not so great as a 0-ohm trace in a keyboard. For short (<1cm) wires it’s usually not too bad, but with the amount of damage I’m not sure you’ll be able to repair the thing.

It looks like it might be from a Model M-style keyboard. Unicomp sells those.

DoH looks identical to normal website traffic. If it’s slow, it’s probably the DoH provider and not the ISP.
