Also - Fate is also definitely a gold standard for that.
Unrelatedly: I think that SRDs are layed out for referencing a known system - I want a document for onboarding a player who is making a character after a GM has already sold them on the game.

But thinking a lot about how you need to place your trust somewhere for the web to work, and what seems really important is in deciding who and where to place your trust.
For this and many others, I really need to find a way away from Facebook and Google (personally don't hate Netflix yet although willing to listen, and already migrated away from Apple and Amazon). I am determined too, just slow moving
apparently they aren't posted yet - but we're looking for a Director of Development and a Senior Developer
We do NLP and search on large piles of documents. Mostly trying to make the gross badly organized SharePoint everyone be accessible and usable to a person on a phone trying to answer an annoyed person's questions

2) Don't know what to call "a person I work with a lot"
It's a joke I learned in How I Met Your Mother, every time someone uses either "major" or "general" you salute while repeating the hypothetical officer name.

So this is me sending vibes of love and kindness and vitamin d your way
And reminding you that if you have vitamin d in the house you can take it during the winter and it might help. Or if you have a full spectrum light bulb that can help even more ❤️
Now that December is over, it always hits me harder too, so take care and stay safe and know I'm wishing you the best

Though I definitely am wondering if I can get a block of IPv6 and just host my own damn BGP because my ISP isn't doing it

I have a bunch of computers from 2012, completely fine computers, just don't use EFI, and devuan is freaking the fuck out and refusing to setup grub
Do you think @Becky will notice if I use FreeBSD?

Though my ... work... tablet... (listen, it has a mechanical keyboard...) runs linux
But I am not certain about the Wacom options
Also - freebsd also failed the "boot on this thinkcentre" test
I use Slack because work and it's not really my choice
But also - my sister isn't using it so she just gets spammed by my family group chat and keeps up via email. But DeltaChat is kinda too feature creeped to be a good experience out-of-app

Putting the image description here too incase the alt text didn't work. Please tell me if it worked 😅.
A computer screen with words on it on a black screen or in Grub (a bootloader), if that makes sense, with a rainbow backlit keyboard in front of it and two hands typing

Anyone have any thoughts on this

I think that fundamentally that argument was ended when the WebIndex was created, and living in a post-WebIndex world basically means that searchability is the way that people approach problems and questions. I like the ability to find old thoughts and I like the ability to find old things. And I think that people who dislike it should have the tools to disable it (robots.txt, nobot, and post-autodeletion). But it would be real nice to remember something from four years ago and search it out of the memory hole.
I think about this in context of like, email. If an inbox decided "I will publish every email sent to me" I think that like, that would be fine. However, if a mail relay did that I would be suspicious as hell.
But I think that most Fediverse accounts act more like inboxes than relays. Obviously, if someone were to setup that email inbox, I would definitely think harder about sending email to it than to my friends. And I think that that change is probably the core of the tension where people worry about the fediverse.
I don't understand the people who dislike a generic search tools - and their arguments have never persuaded me - I don't know what I'm missing.

I feel like defederation is the solution to that though - unless, of course, Mastodon.social existed

Still stuck on Linux for good Steam and GPU support for my gaming computer, and my Surface Tablets I'm using as a portable device apparently have wifi issues on the BSDs, and my work computer needs Linux for the MDM
So I don't have a current BSD desktop! Just 10 VMs and a VM host
If you want to tell me, I'd love to hear about cool things that happened to people last year, whether it's completing a project, going to a new place or whatever.
Personally we discovered an outdoor amusement park for young kids, which was really fun to go to a few times, especially for their Halloween event

They can copyright their writing down of D&D - but not D&D.
And the core conflict the OGL solved was people having incredibly petty and stupid arguments about what that was, and then the entire budgets of gaming companies going to lawyers instead of books.
Fun Fact that this kind of fuckery is why most card based games have a mechanic called Exhaust
You see - you can't copyright "turn a card on its side to indicate you've used it" but you *can* trademark the term Tap to mean that.
Because Wizards sucks.

Wizard's wants a piece of that sweet sweet Critical Role action!
Let's say that Critical Role decides that it's not worth it, and decides to leave D&D.
They don't need to go from Fifth Edition Dungeons and Dragons to Call of Cthulhu or Burning Wheel or whatever. They can go to Nith Nedition Nungeons and Nagons, a game with *exactly the same rules* as D&D, but owned by them, and be legally in the clear

There's a company called USAopoly that just... makes knockoff Monopoly, because Parker Brothers owns the pictures of a train and the free parking picture, not the rules of Monopoly.
The main thrust of this is basically, "Wizards barely owns shit, and they're throwing a fuck of a fit over how they wanna get paid more"
I think we're saying the same thing but not quite getting it, I dunno. It's when you say "Public Domain" which this isn't even, this is freer than that.
