Trump and his handlers just before the debate:

Handler: Mr President... (he insists on being called that by his people) - before you go out there I want you to promise again that you won't bring up the thing about people eating cats and dogs...
Trump: yeah, fine
Handler: Remember how we talked about this? And how you promised that you won't bring it up no matter what happens?
Trump: Yeah, fine, whatever.

I have little sympathy for people like the author who knowing all this continue to give content to that site. And I don't care about their excuses.
If you don't like that the new owner has turned your favorite pub into a nazi bar then maybe you should stop spending your money there.

I avoid giant boxes of minis so my biggest is A Feast for Odin. With the expansion it's a pretty full box and I love every bit of it.

Smallest is probably Squire for Hire or Dragons of Etchinstone. Small deck games like the Buttonshy ones but in more compact folding envelopes. I also have a few Pack O Game games: DIG, ORC, BUS, maybe those are smaller by volume.

I've been using NetGuard for many years to block net access for apps that shouldn't need it. I haven't noticed any impact on battery life and haven't run into issues other than what one might expect (for example when it turns out that the blocked app refuses to run without network access)

Didn't know about RethinkDNS, looks neat, will give it a try sometime.

For what its worth hardened wouldn't have saved you from the recent openssh RCE. It may or may not save you from the next one.
Staying on top of GLSAs and making sure that you don't misconfigure your system is probably more important.

newpipe can play offline files I’m pretty sure

Don't think that this is true (unless we are talking about a fork that I am not familiar with). The FAQ has an entry on this and mentions that you need to use an external player. I use mpv and VLC.

I think links should be fine and useful in this case, I'd just avoid affiliate tags and such.

Not a huge fan of inserts and I end up tossing them more often than not but the basic Res Aracana insert is one that I find exemplary. It doesn't make the box larger than it needs to be, it has room for both expansions and most importantly it serves as an ergonomic storage tray during the game.

I've seen third party inserts that looked tempting but they were too expensive and organized things differently from the way I liked. In particular I like to bag together everything that a given player color needs for their setup, that way I can just hand everybody their own bag for their personal setup.

My favorite accessories are a couple of very cheap sectioned trays that I use as component trays for almost every game and some simple card holders for games that need it.

I picked this up about 2 months ago. Took me about 100 hours before I could put it down.

Backpack Battles. It's an inventory management based auto-battler. Chill game and I like spatial puzzle a lot.
The game uses the Godot engine and it runs great on the deck. The UI is very smooth and thoughtfully designed.
A neat thing about the battle system is that it's fully asynchronous. No matchmaking delay and it even works offline. I believe it works by preloading a number of opponent-builds at the beginning of the run.

Nice, now just another year to go while they fix it to run well on the Steamdeck.

Sell me on Lorcana (lemmy.world)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by donio@lemmy.world to c/lorcana@lemmy.world
 

I am familiar with TCG basics, dabbled in Magic, played many boardgames. I am curious about Lorcana but so far all I know about it is that it's a Disney themed TCG.

What makes the game intriguing to you? What are some unique aspects of it? Anything you don't like about it? How much do I have to be into the theme to enjoy it? How much would I have to spend to enjoy the game 2p with my partner?
