Let’s see if micro.blog still works for me. More #rpgaday

8. Favorite character. Another hard one. Back in the day I built so many characters I used as NPCs… There was this hardcore bike ganger though for Shadowrun who always wore the knitted stuff from his sister who is knitting for him in rehab.

And more #rpgaday

7. Smartest RPG you ever played. I dont know the name but it was a small indenpendently never published game that dosnt use dice but some mechanism for shifting your values in attack and defense and did some cool stuff without any dice for skill checks (which I cant remember unfortunately)

6. Favorite game you never get to play. That’s a hard one. If I really want to play something, I just tell people that I will run something and usually find players. But in the end I think it is Feng Shui.

5. Oldest game you’ve played. Let’s chefk the Wikipedia. DnD 2nd is older than The Dark Eye 1st. There you have it :)

Let’s continue with #rpgaday

3. First RPG bought (this year): I buy very selectively these days. And I think the only game I bought something for is Shadowrun

4. Most recent game bought. As mentioned in 3: Something for Shadowrun. if talking about something new, it is Blade Runner.

Ok. I missed some days for #rpgaday

Thus I start now and post the first ten days.

1. First RPG played this year: DnD 5. My regular group has a monthly game, so this is where it is at.

2. First RPG Gamemaster: I think my brother…or a friend of his. This is like 35 years ago…

Regarding my last post about #Suse and anti-semitism. Lunduke seems to be problematic and has a personal grudge against the company. But I find nothing really from the company that counters his blog-post

openSUSE has at least a CoC (I don’t know how good it is written though; not my expertise) #linux

The best soundtrack to #Shadowrun is still the OST of Blade Runner by Vangelis.

I am reading the first time a novel about the CFD in #shadowrun. That is the third metaplot about body snatchers (or are they even more? Bugs Shedim, CFD…)

How about something new?

Damn…you have to buy tickets to the Anne-Frank-House six weeks in advance :(

Well, the NEMO science museum looks like the Berlin Spectrum but better. So, I got tickets for the kids and me. #amsterdam

Oh, I found a way to contact support. On the website when logged in the account management-settings. #pocket

Wow. Pocket has really no support except some FAQ-articles. And the “Contact Support” link is just a link onto the support-page. I didn’t expect that from a company like Mozilla.

They also list accounts on X and not on Mastodon or so.

RIP Bram Moolenaar

Thanks for your work. I use it daily. #vim

After several weeks with #OpenSuse Tumbleweed it still feels a bit weird. Especially how repos are handled and how often I have to take care about dependency conflicts. I can’t remember when I had such problems in the past. And without the repos I miss some software (like codecs). #linux

Ok. My #shadowrun-mission yesterday was so good that Shadowrun has now at least three more players. They directly bought a 5th edition rulebook because that was the only one available at the convention and want to buy a 6th edition one. Nice 😊 #ttrpg

And judging from the age of the convention-participants, #ttrpg have at least in Germany a real problem in terms of finding new players. I guess that most attendees were between 35 and 45 or something like this. Some might be bit younger, some a bit older. Nearly no younger people attended.

#Shadowrun at the #Sonnencon was fun. I definitely will keep the run for a later occasion and I might use the pre-gens myself. They worked out pretty well. The players said they had fun, too. My biggest surprise was that only one played SR before and the others only heard a little bit about it.

Wish me luck. I will do a Shadowrun-mission at a convention. I didn’t do something like this in close to 20 years I think. #ttrpg #shadowrun

Fricking hell - vorletzte Woche ist die Waschmaschine kaputt gegangen, heute der Geschirrspüler. Wenigstens hat der Geschirrspüler noch Garantie und ist nicht ein wirtschaftlicher Totalschaden.

Da kauft man schon Siemens und die Geräte leben trotzdem nicht mal 5 Jahre.

Gute Fahrerlebnisse mit der #DB gibt es noch.

Der eine Regio wartet auf den verspäteten, alle Klimaanlagen funktionieren, das Personal ist sehr nett und freundlich.

Schönen Spruch gerade gehört: “Alkohol ist nie die Lösung. Alkohol ist ein Destilat.” 🤣

I got so damaged by “The wheels on the bus go round and round” that I have problems seeing it in a tv series…

I didn’t expect this: I pay $20/month for #ChatGPT Plus and cannot use the API without paying extra.

For some reason my Doom emacs behaves differently in #OpenSuse than with other #Linux-distributions or macOS. I have no idea why or how to debug.

All in all #OpenSuse behaves with some things quite differently than I know it from other distributions and my laptop 🤔
