Corn Flakes were invented to intentionally be so soul-crushingly bland it would destroy your urge to masturbate.

I know what you're talking about. I'm very selective with the fiction I read, and it usually has some deeper significance or abstract concept it's illustrating through narrative.

The enemy of my enemy and all that

He absolutely attempted, but Congress firmly asserted their authority in the matter.

Didn't he try to block shipments to Israel back in May, but Congress smacked that down saying that they're the ones who make that decision?

This is a variation on an old joke. The way I heard it originally, it was a Jew that owned the bar and the bigoted customer was an antisemite.

That much is obvious, but probably not for the reason you think.

Are you positive? I feel like I need a source on that

Was not expecting to see anyone else talk about Library Takeout.

I like a lot of obscure songs. Here's one of my random faves: Swamp - Mid-Air Thief

The man who said to "say anything, make up anything" is being dishonest about policy positions? Say it ain't so

If you can find a product you actually believe in, sales can be pretty nice

 

I'm considering pulling the trigger on an X1C but the waste is a huge turn-off. I know there are options for purging to infill or a sacrificial object, but last I heard there's still a considerable amount of purge/prime. Can someone who's played with the settings tell me honestly how much progress has been made in reducing waste?

 

Still pretty new to local LLMs, and there's been a lot of development since I dipped my toe in. Suffice to say I'm fairly swamped and looking for guidance to the right model for my use

I want to feed the model sourcebooks, so I can ask it game mechanic questions and it will respond with reasonable accuracy (including page references). I tried this with privateGPT a month or two back, and it kinda worked but it was slow and wonky. It seems like things are a bit cleaner now

 

Let's kick off some activity here with a question:

How much crunch do you, personally, like in your games?

Ultra Lite? Lite? Basic Set? Every book you can get your hands on?

Light on combat, heavy on skills? Vice-versa? Light overall with some aspects way more fleshed-out? Heavy overall with some aspects way more simplified? Are there specific mechanics you like to take full advantage of? Mechanics you like to gloss over?

No wrong answers, let's just get some discussion going
