Hit the level cap in @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com and I’m only about half-way done with the Midnight storyline quest, I think. Been knocking out all the side quests as I go. Horribly addictive, really enjoying this one a lot.

I work devops, play table-top RPGs and MMOs, collect Magic the Gathering, and like procedural generation. I live in the north-east of England with my wife, two cats and a dog. 👋 he/him
My sponsor wasn’t around so I ended up resubscribed to @worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com. Bought Midnight and ran through all of TWW using the new Recap quest line, which worked really well and was a great evening, actually.
sometimes I just fancy playing a little game on my phone on the sofa but mobile games are all such unrelenting shit. Might have to just install a GBA / NDS / PS1 emulator that can handle save states and play a real game.
we invented digital spirits to replace the forest men that filled the natural world around us we carved away
Played some more of @shawntomkin.bsky.social’s #Ironsworn Legacies alpha test last night. Realised I can spend a misfortune to introduce combat with mook (“Create a Setback”) and resolve it in a single Take Action → Overcome a Setback roll, very much like the old “Battle” move. 1/?
Took the pup to a dog-friendly beach today for the first time, it was a hit 🌊 splashing in the shoreline: fun not getting told off for digging in the sand, unlike in the garden: even more fun 🍖 cafe that sold doggy treat rabbit chunks: gourmet (photo credit @jackcurlew.bsky.social)

work have paid for me to have a Cursor Pro account. If there is even the slightest chance that an LLM could be sentient or conscious I feel like making it work on our legacy code base could be a form of torture
It’s a bit tone deaf when there’s probably a army of jack booted ICE agents just out of shot who’d love to disappear half the performers
You can stick your fucking half time show up your arse. Apologies. Its just all too much
my PC had a rattling noise, so I took it apart and cleaned it, and now it's great again. Made me think; men, often we ignore warning signs from our bodies until too late. If you're worried about something, don't wait: remove your internal organs and blast them with compressed air
I have eaten the turtles that were in the Galapagos and which you were probably saving for study Forgive me they were delicious so meaty and so slow
bought these cool looking hex pinboard tiles for my home office wall and now I’m paralysed by the age old holy war, should the tops be pointy or flat??
okay #ttrpg players and #grogsquad folks, I need a recommendation of a Viking or dark ages England themed campaign setting, any system, I’m mining for ideas. Was looking at Cthulhu Dark Ages, perhaps. Bonus points if it’s in physical print and/or on Shop On The Borderlands.
As an ex-public librarian (albeit in the UK, not the US) I can confirm that this is Not News, not even 10 years ago
How would anyone at Fox News ever know what libraries are like? (And could they be a bit more specific as to which ones?)
god it’s fucking hot again, the only solution is a beer garden

I didn’t know @belghast.com personally but he was a regular in my feed, I hung out in his Blaugust community and participated a few years. He always seemed like a great man, loving husband, and was a great force for his community. Fuck cancer.

Fourth (fifth?) place in the DiveHU5 “Boomers vs Gen Z” pub quiz ( we were repping the elder millennials, neither one nor the other) but free shots for having the best team name (“Universally Challenged”) 🍻
it’s been too hot to think this week and all my hobbies at the moment involve thinking

Two #TTRPG ideas I think would be worth a punt: - X-COM inspired; players have an operative character and a science/engineering/politics character, play ops/base alternate sessions. Maybe Traveller. - Windscale disaster, Britain 1957, burns open a portal to the mythic underworld. Soldiers vs. OSR.
