I cannot express how wild this quote is. This is a top tech analyst at a well-regarded firm saying that there is not enough capital to actually pay for all the stuff that NVIDIA and OpenAI has promised. It is so important that everybody realizes that *there is not enough money to do this*

I think it is similar to film makers talking about each others work, community consulting kind of requires you to interface with the project from the public’s point of view but informed by your experience on similar projects. (So also a peer)

Index card kinda does it? Cadwallon: The Free city used it as well but it was never formally used a die to record it (but the danger level was out of 20 in most cases). I use it all the time as a danger rating/clock mechanic. A die is a great visual reference for players, it can also be rolled...

This constantly happens in art. Modernist painting was rooted in a reaction to Academic art which had (by the 18thc) gotten so good at making big renaissance style paintings that it started to become homogenised and dull.

I played a great Pooh game at a Con years ago, they had an ace dice dropping mechanic for poohsticks and everything.

What dismays me is that I love many of the creators involved in these threads. (on both sides) Internet hobby arguments are so often just full of tribal resentment, on the internets people like to be in groups and they like to be correct.

Bathtub Review: Wonderland Bathtub Reviews are an excuse for me to read modules a little more closely. I’m doing them to critique a wide range of modules from the perspective of my own table and to learn for my own module de…

This week in the Bathtub, it’s Ennie nominated Alice in Wonderland inspired module Wonderland. Is this a deeply flawed misunderstanding of the megadungeon as a concept, or is it Andrew Kolb’s magnum opus? Find out! idlecartulary.com/2025/07/21/b...

I saw Jaws at the drive in as an infant and pretty sure I saw Halloween and Alien in a similar context. Then saw them all again when my folks got a VHS player in 82ish

We wonder why there is very little real in-depth artistic analysis of TRPGs when discourse is all sub posting in fear of flame wars and airing out decades long personal grievances.

The tobacco tax is a disaster playing out on our streets and in our budget From bombed-out tobacconists in Melbourne to a $43 billion hole in the budget, the use of excise on tobacco is failing.

Knock! Issue #5 An Adventure Gaming Bric-a-Brac. Being A Compendium of Miscellanea for Old-School RPGs. For us OSR weirdos and curious D&D heads alike.

I did back this wonderful book for weirdos in order to get the set to the Antipodes at a non ruinous price. It's good stuff, the Mushmen have been dropping a bunch of ace stuff of late (Chaos Cryer #1 is also really good and loads of content for a slim zine) @themerrymushmen.bsky.social
