So, even if the company wanted you to come in 3 days a week, what was stopping you from commiting to the whole 5 days? I don’t think a company would say no if someone wished to go to the office even more often.
We’re doing hybrid too where I work, but I still go in 5 days a week, even if that means there are times (generally Monday and Friday) when there aren’t as many people around.
I wouldn’t label things they changed compared to 5e rules as necessarily broken, unless the way they say it’s implemented doesn’t actually match what’s happening.
I picked half elf as race initially because I was used to the +2 +1 +1 spread they get, which isn’t the case in the game, or hypnotic pattern, which only lasts 2 turns instead of 10. Is the game broken? No, it’s just me assuming stuff will be 1 to 1 to the 5e rules. And it goes both ways, took me a bit to realize they don’t follow the spellcasting rules to a t, and you can cast leveled spells with both your action and your bonus action.
Got any links to support these claims? I’d be interested to know more for when people bring up the same argument as the person you’re replying to.
There’s a controller layout from someone with some thousand hours of playtime that imitates a more traditional mouse setup where you move the cursor with the right track pad and then right and left click with the triggers (like you would in desktop mode). I’ve switched to using that and I like it more, even though the official controller layout does a decent job, it gets a bit annoying going through all the combat actions.
I can confirm that syncing through steam cloud works both ways. I also tried remote play while on the same network and I didn’t encounter any issues.
XCOM meets Diablo is a decent enough way of putting it, as long as you don’t expect the mechanics to be 1:1. Since you brought up positioning, there’s no grid for movement, or flanking, for example. Battles are turn-based, like XCOM, but it’s not split in player turn and AI turn, instead, each individual character/npc gets its own turn, with the order decided based on dice rolls and whatever modifiers are applicable.
It looks to me like you’re talking about something else compared to the person you’re replying to.
To my eyes, he’s arguing in favor of the technology as a concept, while you’re arguing against specific products (let’s say midjourney, for the sake of the discussion). If midjourney proved beyond any doubt that their model was trained on a data set that they had rights to (by buying them from artists, or the images already being copyright free, doesn’t matter), would you still be against it?
Similarly, you said you’re against your work being used for commercial purposes, but would you be ok with me training a model on your work, and then using AI to generate images in your style that I use as, for example, character art for my DnD games that I will pay with friends? (making an assumption here, don’t know what kind of artist you are)
With the release of the fold5 I was considering trading in my S22 Ultra to get one, but even with that and all the promotions, it would still cost more than 1k € that I’d have to pay up front, which I’d rather not do.
Microsoft made the surface duo some two years ago and it didn’t do great (though the screen wasn’t necessarily the reason for that). The problem I see with that approach is that you can’t have content going all the way across due to the bezel between the screens.
I have two accounts added to the app from two different instances, I was getting this when one of them was actually forcefully logged out to prevent any damage done by the exploit found a week ago.
Solution was deleting that account and adding it back.
To add to some of the suggestions in the thread, check out Solasta: Crown of the Magister, it didn’t have as big of a budget as something like Baldur’s Gate 3, but it’s a fun little game that uses the D&D 5E rules (the ones that were in the SRD, to be more precise).
I can see it’s on sale now, but I will say that some content is locked behind DLCs. It also has support for steam workshop, allowing people to make custom campaigns, and I recommend the Solasta Unfinished Business mod, which adds a whole bunch of stuff that’s missing from the base game, for example multiclassing.
May I ask why? This coming from the guy that has to facilitate them.
I’m especially curious about the stand-ups, since I have mixed feelings about retrospectives myself, they have their place and I think they play a part in a team’s growth, but at the same time I’d rather just cancel them if I don’t feel we’d get anything useful out of it and I don’t want to hold a retro just because the process says so.
LE: Gonna just edit this to say thank you to the people who replied, gave me some new perspectives to think about.
