I…would probably play Pathfinder with a great roleplaying party.

Pathfinder 2e does have some more tools for roleplaying, but the game's real strength is tactical combat. Pathfinder 2e wants to be D&D 4e done right.

Zelda 1 randomizer is popular, and it's all about procedural generation of dungeons and procedural assignment of items to locations. It's not as well designed as the original Zelda 1, not by a long shot, but it combines the familiar gameplay of Zelda 1 with the novelty of procedural generation.

The previous season covered chapters 1-60, so I'm going to guess that this season will cover chapters 61-119.

Mild manga spoilersSeason 2 should be more like the 2nd cour of season 1 in pacing and length of arcs, but I liked the material more to a lot more than the first-class mage exam arc.

Ending at chapter 119 because that's the end of an arc.

I've tried those.

Sea of Stars looks as pretty as Chrono Trigger, but its writing is noticeably worse and it completely fails at one of Chrono Trigger's great strengths, pacing. In Sea of Stars' defense, it is generally better than Chrono Trigger at interesting dungeon design and its battle system has more potential. But those don't compensate enough for poor writing and especially pacing.

Chained Echoes tries really hard to fit a 32-bit plot into a 16-bit running time, and it doesn't quite work. Still, it left me interested in more by the same dev team, especially if trends and tech change so that they can switch to doing a game explicitly inspired by Xenogears and its ilk.

What is the setting in about:config to opt out of this?

How is OnlyOffice's offline performance and support for Graphite smart font technology? I use Graphite fonts and no support for those is a deal-breaker.

Tab groups? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Did anyone else have tab groups become disabled by default in the last few days? I'm on the beta version, and existing tab groups remain but I can't make new ones in 138.0b8 and 138.0b9.

I wonder if there's a story behind this, like being disabled due to instability.

Font Awesome is a font that uses codepoints in the "Private Use Area" for icons. (The Private Use Area is a chunk of Unicode specifically set aside for any font to put any image they want in there, instead of expecting a certain codepoint to display as a specific letter.)

To the OP: I don't know much about this, but if you use a different app, does Arch's Font Awesome show as the colored or B&W version? You might have to try a wide variety of apps due to competing color font standards.

Mononoke came to mind although there probably is a better one.

I've been using vertical tabs for a while now. It rearranges your address bar and that's going to take some time and annoyance to sort out, but I've got it back to where I like it.

Vertical tabs aren't as great as they would have been ten years ago. So many websites nowadays use a two- or three-column layout to use the excess horizontal space on a normal screen, and having the vertical tabs showing full length often compresses those. Thankfully there's a button to switch between full-length tabs and just the favicon for those sites.

I haven't watched them, but I've heard little but good about Twelve Kingdoms, Magic Knights Rayearth, and El-Hazard.

I have often had to go into about:config to revert unwanted new behavior, but never had to downgrade.

 

quakers.social shows up on our list of blocked instances, but looking at the most recent posts at https://quakers.social/public/local I can't see why. They seem like a harmless group with a lot of religious reposts. Does sh.itjust.works have a policy of reciprocal blocking or something like that?
