Literally a snorlax, he/him, software engineer. I enjoy running and playing TTRPGs that aren't D&D, and I read a lot. A LOT. Manga, manhua, manhwa, light novels, novels, fanfiction, web serials.
I run a Legend of the Five Rings campaign and a low effort OD&D campaign.

Getting my bookshelves back in order post-move. This was one of my highest priorities, right after functioning bedrooms and kitchen. Also it emptied a LOT of boxes. No, more than that. More. Even more. This is just one bookshelf, and not even all the shelves on it.
You may notice a lot of books that are frequently banned. For ages I told my family if they needed a gift, that was the place to look.

I cannot fucking wait to get my painting desk back up and running. Hopefully tomorrow I'll be ready to get it going.

The answer is Dungeons & Dragons, Wizardry, and Ultima.
No, really. The first Final Fantasy is just D&D as a videogame, including the backend mechanics and the entire Monster Manual.
Wizardry was so popular that wizardry-likes are still a significant genre in Japan.
Record of Lodoss War is based on a D&D campaign's game logs, and was so popular that when Gygax told them they couldn't license an official translation, they made a clone called Sword World that's still #2 TTRPG.
The Zaku project produced some very strong successes, unfortunately, the Zakutank was not one of them. Its weaponry was fine, but was mounted on the tank body instead of on the mech, restricting its usage, and the unit never made it past the early production stage.

if I had a nickel for every time IT missed something significant and relatively obvious during a security change and caused a multi day work stoppage, I'd have far more than 2 nickels and that's kind of fucked up.
Finished off those Zaku today, and got started on my next project, which I am playing pretty straight.
I just wish I could figure out what kind of dog this is modeled on.

@deinol@dice.camp None of the IICs are omnis, they're all second-line.
Replying to
@deinol@dice.camp Depends on how accurate you want it, I think. Tukkayid was, iirc, nothing but first line on the clan side, which means only omnimechs, and only ones that appear on their clan list, which can cut out a lot of them.

If it doesn't have a Prime/Letter designation for the loadout, it's not an omni, including the Bane, interestingly enough.
Replying to
@deinol@dice.camp
The real fun fact about the original omnis is that they only ever have unique torsos. Their arms and legs are all shared with at least one other chassis, usually two or more.
In-world, this is because interchangeable parts powerful, out of world, it's because they needed to reuse as much as possible for the battle pod 3d models.
I am sweaty as hell, and I haven't even started getting the painting desk more than in place with a couple lights on it, and one big box of battletech unpacked onto a table. I have too much shit, gonna be selling some off.

Grand piano theft is likely to be grand grand piano theft, but yes, grand theft is just based on value stolen, so anything sufficiently valuable will be grand theft.

Bought myself a copy of the Dictionary of Color Combinations vol 1 & 2, because sometimes you don't want to think of a palette to use.
Opened the second volume, which is monthly-themed, and the very first palette, for January, my brain just says "Motherfucker that's the South Beach Pastels, 50 years early."

I can't imagine how a project associated with Justin Alexander, who deadnamed Jenelle Jaquays and then tried to steal the credit for her signature dungeon style after she died, would be full of shitty people.
The fact that this "Professor DM" associates with him is enough to make me instantly distrust him.

There are very few people who find this type of job easy before training and practice. No such thing as unskilled labor isn't just a catchphrase. You're simultaneously trying to juggle the interface with your coworkers, the interface with the POS system, AND the needs, desires, and emotions of the customers. There have been videogames made out of nothing but this.

Battletech has canonical catgirls and anybody who says there aren't full conversion furries running around is objectively incorrect. Your fursona is just your fursona.

Pretty much. I did the math once and in the time between the fall of the Star League and the Clan Invasion, there's something like 30 years not taken up by the first, second, third, or fourth succession wars.

The printed books have, in the back, an index of every palette where each color occurs, plus swatches that go to the page edge, for comparing to colors in the wild. The books are really small, too, light novel sized.

@loji@dice.camp No. Quadvees do, but the abstraction level is so high, and terrain so generally sparse, that the whole "ducking to hide behind cover" that quads can do is just gone. Cover's a lot less effective in general, as well.

There were also many games and series made at the same time featuring popular eastern properties, but most of those are unknown in the west because they were expected to bomb. We got a few, some of the Nobunaga's Ambition and Romance of Three Kingdoms and Shingen the Ruler games in the wargame space, Destiny of an Emperor in the JRPG space.
