  • The rules state that you either die or fall unconscious when you have 0 hit points. The definition of “unconscious” in Appendix A specifies that you are incapacitated AND can’t move or speak AND are unaware of your surroundings.

    EDIT: Maybe I shouldn’t assume you’re talking about 5e. I have no idea about 5.5e or any other edition





  • OH MY GOD I REMEMBER THIS ONE.

    I remember going back and following literally every single possible story path and never making it to the planet Ultima. And then going through page-by-page until I actually found it.

    That’s wild, this must have been about 20 years ago. Thanks for reminding me of a childhood memory.





  • This may be true for married couples who started dating when they were teenagers. Since you brought it up, I’d be curious to see what proportion of the couples in the study fall into that category. I have a hunch that it’s a pretty small percentage, though.

    While it’s true that there is some stigma against (e.g.) a college freshman or sophomore dating someone who’s still in high school, I don’t think many people in their right mind would object to a 2-, 3- or even 4-year age gap once both partners are at least 20.

    EDIT to add: I don’t think 17-year-olds being afraid to date 15-year-olds even registers on the top ten reasons “why people are increasingly lonely.” Your take comes across as very high school-centric.



  • Should Ruben vet the entire Lemmyverse while he’s at it so he can “dictate what appears in his product?”

    As a solo developer with limited resources, one has four choices:

    • Choose an existing ad network and do the best you can within its content preferences,

    • Put a paywall on your app’s features and hope enough people will actually buy it,

    • Work for free, sacrificing your own livelihood, or

    • Don’t develop the app.

    Clearly they all involve a compromise of one form or another, and I trust that Ruben put a lot of thought into the decision.
