Ok, doodling on a tablet is very fun...

My tests of the 14b Qwen distill of Deepseek R1 are going great, nothing to see here

(Spoilers for Tomb of Golden Ghosts from His Majesty the Worm)

Having fun playing with a new IRL GM setup, getting ready to run His Majesty the Worm. I'm tickled by the idea of using a three-ring binder as a GM screen of sorts, without creating too large of a barrier between myself and the players.

#Lancer #TTRPG GM Tip: If you're playing in person and suddenly need a map for a combat, break out 15-20 d6's and roll them on a blank hex map, and draw terrain based on their results:

1-3: Size 1
4-5: Size 2
6: Size 3

(Examples featuring terrain from The Upgrade Factory on Etsy)

Looking at some doodles I did for my module, I actually really kind of like this one overlooking the gulch from Porthull. It uses an older version of the map, but I think I was onto something here. Might clean it up into some sharpie lineart and put it in the module somewhere, if I have time.

Had a great time running my playtest of #Lancer #TTRPG at @levelupgames.bsky.social last night!

Update

Fun arts and crafts for #Lancer #ttrpg today

Here's the PDF spread, as displayed by SumatraPDF. Just a bit of a toy example for now that I've been experimenting with

Seeing shockingly few people discussing using an Elgato Stream Deck for uptime monitoring (using the Uptime Kuma Stream Deck plugin) github.com/MarlBurroW/S...

My little #homelab, such as it is. Aoostar GEM12 for Docker/Portainer, 3x RPi4 for Pihole, secondary Pihole, and dedicated uptime monitoring (Uptime Kuma + ntfy.sh), and a UGREEN DXP4800 Plus running TrueNAS Scale.

Not pictured: RPi4 running Home Assistant, next to my router across the room
