That moment when your DM says he created new combat rules for his homebrew #ttrpg and sends you a PDF that's formatted like a scientific thesis, starts with a half page list of variables and has more formulas than text.

You might think working a phone repair kiosk is a waste of my skills. Yeah nah.

Today, this kid came in with an iPhone that was more than cracked, it was banana-fied.

“What happened?” I asked, turning the wreckage over in my hands. I don’t think there was a single salvageable part. “And have […]

The #foxcalendar goes into its tenth year overall and its fourth year here on the fediverse. To celebrate, the title page contains a collage of previous title pages.

You know the Bechdel test and its reverse. I propose a third form: does a movie have two non-binary characters who talk to each other about something that isn't gender?

I can't think of a single work that passes that.

Ist es denn nach über zwei Monaten Baulärm zu viel verlangt, einfach mal Ruhe zu haben?

@cstross Can you recommend a platform where we can buy audio books of your works? If possible, I would like to avoid Audible because I don't like how much they push their subscription model.

Dieser Moment, wenn du nach Gothicklamotten suchst und ein großer Onlinehändler dich fragt, ob du noch eine Tube Anal-Gleitgel dazu willst...

Ich meine, da gibt es natürlich eine gewisse Überschneidung in der Zielgruppe, aber...

Hat hier zufällig jemand ein passendes Mainboard für einen Core i7-10700 (Sockel LGA1200) übrig? Mindestens ein M.2 Slot für eine SSD.

Mir wurde ein Prebuilt Gaming-PC anvertraut, der in seinem winzigen Gehäuse selbst bei mäßiger Last überhitzt, dessen Mainboard aber leider irgendeine […]

You know what pisses me off even more than websites that don't allow + in email addresses?

Websites that used to allow + in email addresses and have now changed their rules so I suddenly can't log in with my existing account anymore.

Hey audio processing experts (looking at you, @halcy), are there any good audio upscalers, preferrably open source?

I have a bunch of audio books that got encoded as 32 kbit/s MP3s back in the day and I currently don't have easy access to the original CDs.

I've tried audiosr but that throws […]

The fan on my Framework 13 laptop made weird noises for the last few weeks but @frameworkcomputer sent me a free replacement part.

Installing it took 3 minutes and the instructions were super clear. 10 screws (5 on the case, 5 on the heatsink/fan), no adhesive, no warranty void stickers, no […]

Liebe Freunde von #eurobox, #eurokiste und #Eurobehälter, ich bräuchte mal etwas Beratung.

Ich suche für das private Lagerregal zu Hause Boxen mit Grundfläche 600x400mm, am liebsten mit Deckel. An Höhe hab ich ca. 400mm zur Verfügung, vermutlich werde ich da zwei kleinere Boxen aufeinander […]
