Thanks for the review, I think i'm gonna skip it.

It's not 100% serious but sovcits think that by saying the right things at the right time the government can't do anything to them. (ie, they always talk about how they don't have a "contract" with the government or that if there's a gold fringe on the flag, the court has no jurisdiction).

Lawyers think that if they make a compelling enough argument, the government will be forced to stop doing its thing.

In both cases, they overestimate the power of "The Law" -- if the government wants to do something they will make up a reason to do it and say it's the law. But in the case of the sovcits they also misunderstand what 'the law' is.

But both of them think that by invoking the right logic you can wield power, which I guess is kind of true in some cases.

People act like The Law is magic and if you say the right words at the right time then you have to get what you want. They don't realize that the legal system is just like any other system: made up to make things easier for whoever has power.

Even real lawyers are the same as soverign citizens to me, except the 'real lawyers' just have the buy in of the judges. It's all fake either way!

I seriously do not see the point. Even zoom sucks, to me. I don't feel the need for VR for most interactions.

It feels like Facebook is grasping at straws trying to think of something to do with all their engineers to be quite honest.

If it's one of those flights that goes left and right, like a spiral staircase but straight, you could put the end tags on the bottom one

Overthrowing capitalism by giving everyone socks that don't fit

I think she's probably just in a coma or something

we are going to turn them into a worker cooperative and use their chokehold on the global logistics system to overthrow capitalism.

Luckily the original post had too low of an AC to get hit

I actually kind of like THAC0 conceptually, and if the computer is doing all the math I don't have to worry about it.

I think it's just a UI issue where if you get an armor that's like, Chain Mail +1 the information screen will say that it gives you +1 to your AC, which would be bad if that were true, but when you equip it it actually correctly lowers your AC. So that stuff is a UI issue but I understand and can respect the underlying mechanics. Figure out you ac and thaco and then you just need to roll one die and check if it's over or under.

What I find less intuitive is when you're reading through spells and need to figure out what status effects you need. This gives me a +1 to save vs breath weapons bit for some reason that also includes fireball spells? Also wtf pretty much only dragons have breath weapons why is this a dedicated stat? Why didn't they make breath weapons use like... AoE saves or something? (I'm pulling this out of my head, not using a real example here)

It's very complicated and unintuitive. But that's OK, I actually really like the game and the system in general!

Maybe it should be. I'll put some feelers out

I for one am SICK of not seeing advertisements on this website. How am I supposed to know what to buy if my favorite online content doesn't come packed to the gills with information to me about products and services I could be consuming?

I'm TIRED of it, and it MUST CHANGE.

Good, now we can finally invest all that silicon into bitcoin

I think a battalion sized force could make short work of this mess.

This happened hours before those! (Though they sure didn't help)
