It's a good video. Matt Colville (design director) even recommended it in his video.

I've been following the game for several years. It's got a lot of cool stuff. I've convinced some friends to try it out next week.

I'm liking it so far. Is there a way to add internet search to the app search bar?

Fun fact: Tempe is named after The Vale of Tempe in Greece.

I visited Culdesac last year to see CityNerd and Urban Phoenix Project talk about urban development. It's a neat place. If it existed 10 years ago I would have liked to live there. Going car free in Phoenix is definitely a challenge but I'm glad some people are willing to try it.

Same. I got a Hario Switch for Christmas and it's replaced the AeroPress as my daily driver.

Sounds like it will be competing with https://www.gaia.com/ . One time I met a girl at a bar and she told me I needed to watch some videos there to know the real her. I managed to watch a whole episode about the hollow moon. The next episode started talking about the lizard people that came to earth thousands of years ago. I decided I wasn't bored or horny enough to continue.

The Monk and Robot series. Takes place in a postindustrial eco conscious society. A young monk decides to become a traveling tea maker (an actual profession, sort of a casual therapist).

Eventually they meet a robot that wants to learn about humans.

The rogue I DM always asks where the brothel is. I just make up names and charge him gold for the stay.

While on the road the party stopped at a tavern in a small town. It was run by two sisters that were very friendly with the rogue and the paladin. The sisters led them downstairs and into their respective rooms. When their backs were turned the doppelgangers attacked!

The paladin's steed sensed he was in trouble and burst in the tavern and hoofed it to the cellar. The monk and wizard realized what was happening and begrudgingly put down their drinks to go help.

The power setting makes the microwave cycle between ON and OFF at the given ratio. So at 50% power the microwave will only be heating for half of the cook time.

Raindrop.io. I use the Firefox extension on desktop and the android app. Bookmarks are in the app, not actually in the browser, but it's simple and it works. It also makes bookmarks easier to search.

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1CPB-gBhcNVqwY0-fWgIdjnkPeMcfFFE David Bowie narrates Sergei Prokofiev's 'Peter And The Wolf'. The narrator tells a story and the orchestra illustrates by using different instruments to play a "theme" that represents each character in the story.

For modern stories I like The Curse. It's about an archeologist that falls in love with a mummy that comes to life.

The Flee, Mortals! book has a mimic companion stat block. It can cover you and act as active camouflage.

Correct, I have to manually select which device to play from, but Spotify also remembers the current playlist when switching. Tidal doesn't, device sessions are separate.

Spotify doesn't remember the queue though, so shuffled playlists get reshuffled when switching devices. It causes repeats and it's really annoying. Deezer has the best session management I've used. It remembers the whole queue.
