The hardware is, which is the important part at scale: even if the code is 10x more expensive when you sell millions of the car it becomes pennies/car

Huh, never heard of it before! From what I can see it kinda looks like an updated version of the Crossfire game?

 

If you're new to shadowrun and want to read some actual play storytime, you need to do yourself a favor and read this.

It's a very old text and it's from 4chan so yeah some parts (mostly in the first few chapters) have aged like milk. I do believe the text itself makes the wincing worth it, it's truly a masterpiece of hijinks and general shadowrun-ness.

You can read it either from the 4chan archive here or my personal pick, the PDF version here. It starts as a "That Guy" story (a complaint about a problematic player) but quickly gets into the good stuff.

Have fun!

If you love cyberpunk universes but also think most problems should be solved by fireballs you're bound to love Shadowrun, one of the oldest TTRPGs still kicking!

Whether you're a 2nd edition aficionado, you're already waiting for 7E, just interested by the universe or completely new to the party feel free to drop by our EN/FR community!

I'm already in the process of documenting my own campaigns and showing off my beautiful commissioned art and I would love to see what other people have done with that incredibly dense universe!

Sure, I'll do that right now!

Salut à tous ! Je me suis rendu compte que l'ancienne communauté a été désactivé il y a quelques temps donc j'ai décidé de la récréer !

Je sais que la communauté des joueurs de Shadowrun n'est pas énorme, mais on a eu un subreddit assez actif donc j'espère qu'on pourra avoir quelque chose du même acabit ici ! Je voudrais faire de la communauté quelque chose d'assez proche du subreddit donc tout est le bienvenue ici: des questions sur les différentes éditions, des images et des histoires de vos parties, des morceaux de lore amusants... J'espère que tous les anciens et nouveaux fans se sentiront à l'aise dans ce nouveau chez nous !

Hey everyone! I noticed the old [email protected] had been down for sometime so I decided to recreate it, I feel like our community isn't the biggest out there but the subreddit had some traction so hopefully we can get that without having to deal with Reddit atrocious decisions. I'm planning for this community to be mainly based around said subreddit so basically anything goes here: questions about the game, images and stories from your campaigns, fun lore tidbits... I hope fans both old and new can feel included!

Here's mine, using a fair share of Mushroom for the light buttons, the "Room" tiles are actually pretty great!

With Pokemon yeah basically

Anything kernel level can theoretically modify anything in your TPM too, so Linux programs that use it (admittedly I'm not sure any user program use it) could be manipulated in weird ways

Hopefully we can still get some traction going against Vanguard, Windows users haven't been the greatest fans of the system on Valorant, maybe with enough voices riot will think twice about it? We still have a few possible outs though, Vanguard is not gonna be enabled on the macOS version, so either we can convince riot that Linux is as big of a platform as macOS or we can hope for Darling to get to the point where we can play games with it.

Thanks for doing the work, I guess we'll just have to wait and see...

CarPlay and Android Auto aren't car OSes though, they're merely an infotainment interface. You still need a way for the user to check the tire pressure, choose between sports mode and eco mode... Cars manufacturers could just implement the basics and let CarPlay/Auto do the rest but in that case anyone that doesn't have a compatible phone is stuck without infotainment, same if you run out of battery.

CarPlay and Auto being so good is somewhat to blame for first party interfaces being that bad though: why spend litteral millions on look and feel if you know the users who care won't be using it

I think it's canon that wether in DnD or PF anyone can learn arcane magic if they take the time to do so (and they have a way to pay for it, most people can't afford to not work for 5-10 years)

The thing is, even if someone has the money and the time maybe they don't want to spend it, especially if magical scrolls/wands can let you cast spells fairly easily.

To me it's the same thing as saying to some kid "you can learn to be a robotics engineer and in 5-10 years and $100k of debt you'll be able to make robots that can do anything for you, including being strong" and the kid just replies "That's cool, but I think I'll just go to the gym thank you"

It somewhat makes sense in universe though, if any guy who spends a few years in a magic school can best your guards/rookie soldiers without a sweat there would only be magic users!
