    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Can't believe I'm about to say this, but this show is... good... Very good, even.

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    Well fuck, this thread is useless for figuring out if the show is any good (despite hundreds of posts). And critic reviews stopped being reliable a few years ago, so I guess I'm going to have to watch this shit and see for myself..

    I converted SR 2nd edition to my system. Worked out pretty well. Foundry significantly better than roll20? I'm about to start up a campaign and I've been contemplating shifting to Foundry

    Base DnD 5e is honestly a great system, especially for beginning RPers. I'm talking about the ~2015 core book stuff. I've heard some bad things about the direction they are headed, but tbh I don't know how much of that is true, as I've spent the last 5 years locked away with my own system and...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Not a bad plan. Similar to what WoW did. Although if they are still at the point where they are working towards securing funding, realistically this isn't going to be playable for a good while. It's a shame. It looks pretty cool

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Ok I admit I'm too lazy to search through the thread for an answer. Someone give me a tldr: is this thing realistically coming out this year or even early next year, or is this another Pantheon?

    So what fantasy ttrpgs are people playing these days? It's been a while since I played DnD 5e, but I've been hearing some crazy shit recently and it seems like people are kind of turned off by some of the recent changes. Pathfinder 2? I've heard good things but never played it. Anything else...

    Probably news of the upcoming Sept. merger. I think it's the first time they've actually put a date on it. Don't be surprised if they push the date back.

    I wasn't calling anyone stupid fwiw- just wrong. Because if you believe that any crypto currency (including BTC) has made the leap from speculative asset to inflation hedge, it seems pretty clear you are demonstrably wrong. Inflation hedges are supposed to protect the investor against the...

    Ammo is a good investment too- you won't find me arguing with that. But I buy both. Barring some type of full collapse I won't be using my ammo for anything other than target practice in the foreseeable future.

    Well by Blazin's rationale, today's bump means we are looking at good news in the near future. But by the time we get the good news, the markets could be in the toilet because of upcoming bad news.

    To a certain extent I think that works: caveat emptor. But absolutely zero regulation or oversight is as bad as overregulation. You need at least a basic framework to prevent the straight up brazen criminal enterprises from destroying the space altogether- which they are currently in danger of...

    Lots of loopholes and end arounds (spouses etc) and definitely more than a few failures to report. People actively serving in congress shouldn't be able to trade while in office. Period.

    I'm not going to explain it because I don't think blockchains eliminate the need for corporate lawyers and/or legal compliance. There will always be lawyers as long as there are laws. I also don't think blockchain tech will eliminate middle men entirely, but it will reduce them and change what...

    Yeah, if you're asking for my "sources" as to why I feel that way, I could definitely point you to a variety of articles, interviews, and general information that, all combined, lead me to this belief. But, honestly, it'd be a waste of time because I doubt you'd read/watch them. Not saying...

    I believe there is a very good chance that Web3 explodes and DAOs replace LLCs, coins replace stocks (in some cases), and teams like Polygon become the next Microsoft, Facebook, and Google.

    Thankfully, I don't count my wins and losses by the day 😁 Edit: really bad day for my inverse etfs, comparatively much better day for my crypto? /shrug it will all change next week. For me it's a marathon not a sprint

    You could argue all of those things are tied to income. The first one directly and the second two indirectly.
