'There's almost nobody left': CEO of Baldur's Gate 3 dev Swen Vincke says the D&D team he initially worked with is gone, due to Hasbro layoffs
  • Yeah Pathfinder 2e is good. It's more crunchy than 5e, but that also means there are rules for most situations that come up. I like the 3 action system, much better than the old, "main action, swift action, move action, move- equivalent action" thing the old version had going on.

    Recommend a game for me to play with my partner
  • Sounds a bit like my partner, who doesn't like most action games. For a game you could play together, I think you could try a "creature collector" type game, like pokemon. There are actually a lot of creature collectors, pokemon is just the most popular, but there are cheap digital games on the switch store that are made by Pokemon fans and from what I can tell are better in a lot of ways.

    You can also emulate all of the old console games for free, that's what my partner did for a bunch of Pokemon titles.

    Does a 28 hit? No.
  • I think this is being misinterpreted a little bit. This only blocks attacks that exactly equal the final number. So for their example, AC 14, and final total being 23, 15-22 still hits and 24+ still hits.

    It's an interesting magic item but ultimately it's too much additional math and dice for a turn.

    FDA approves new version of diabetes drug Mounjaro for weight loss
  • Not all of them. Some of these drugs can affect nutrient uptake, others are amphetamines to make your resting energy use rise, as a stimulant. I'm sure there are other mechanisms to mess with as well.

    FDA approves new version of diabetes drug Mounjaro for weight loss
  • The track record for weight loss drugs is not good. Even "approved" ones. We had a lot of teenagers on amphetamines to make them lose weight.

    The podcast Maintenance Phase has at least one episode on them and their history.

    It brings the room together
  • I saw this post, and happened to be at work so I made it.

    Edit: seems like some apps aren't displaying the picture, might have to open in a browser.

    A good fantasy book? you know, wizards, dragons, princesses, that kind of stuff
  • I was also going to recommend Night Angel.

    OP, it's a book about a gutter rat that becomes trained as an assassin by the best, then evolves into a bit more fantasy and magic and the endgame of being the world's best assassin.

    Family files lawsuit against Panera Bread after college student who drank ‘charged lemonade’ dies
  • Depends on the energy drink. The little V8 energy drinks have 80mg, and the green dragon extreme has 180mg in the same 8oz can. But yeah coffee has more than people think.

    Just the basics
  • Upbringing, education and availability. There are towns in the US where the only grocery store within 20 miles is a Dollar General, creating food deserts.
