Comprehensive...

Real-world applications...

Promising...

Sometime I feel that research is just a bunch of guys trying to sell useless stuff (myself included).

+/-0.1 m/s/GPa/whatever is all I can offer for you to elucubrate.

TBH, the opening scene (the one in which Murphy is almost killed) is much worse for me. Not only because of the violence/gore, but because it's extremely sadistic, with villains laughing while shooting at him. My 12 y/o watched that scene at the cinema and yes, it traumatized me.

About fucking time. I'm just sick of the "news" about X. Hopefully it disappears for good.

I mean, they don't tell you which part of ToS you violated because you may come up with some way to circumvent it.

They do this on purpose, to avoid workarounds.

I'm an arachnophobe as well and I do this, if the spider isn't huge (fortunately, there are no huge spiders when I live... AFAIK).

Why don't more people use Linux? - DHH in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Because they prefer to use something else.

Nothing new. Mozilla could disappear tomorrow and a few dozens of people may notice it, if even. They're basically useless at this point.

Looks like LOS is finally allowing signature spoofing for microg. More info? (review.lineageos.org)
 

Form that committ, it seems to me that LOS is finally allowing signature spoofing for microg (under certain conditions). Have they finally changed their mind?

HI all! Looking for a starter set to play with family. Any suggestion? (lemm.ee)

Hi all!

We're a family of three, my wife, my son (11M) and I. We would like to start playing "real" D&D, after trying a very simplified version we bought a couple years ago.

I've been playing "real" D&D with my friends many years ago, but only as a player, never as the DM. What I'm looking for is a set comprising a Player's Handbook, a DM Handbook and Rules (?). I'm not really sure sure what else I would need to start... I'd be the DM and the player, at least at the beginning...

Can anyone point me towards a good starter pack, with the minimum needed books? Also, any additional suggestion would be welcome.

Thanks a lot in advance!

EDIT: Thanks to everybody! These have been very useful suggestions. I think we may start with the "Starter Set" (cheap, slightly more advanced than the one we're using right now) and if the family enjoy it we may explore the "core rule set" afterwards. Hope my son may appreciate this kind of games, as a healtier alternative to phone/pc video games :-)
