There are a lot of virtual tabletops out there. The demand is very much there from a significant portion of the player base (I’d say less than the majority, but still, that’s a lot of people). And the existing ones all suck, to varying degrees, typically because of how much work they are to use.

Someone is eventually…

Extra! Extra! Optional Service of Great Use to Many People Doesn’t Appeal To One Specific Journalist “Blogger”! Mere Existence Met with Suspicion, Doubt! Allegedly Threatens to “Change The Very Hobby Itself”, Somehow!

ffs “grognard blows new way to play game wildly out of proportion”
you say this may divide the hobby like this isnt already the most divisible group of nerds in existence. every change is treated like a god damn existential crisis while completely ignoring that none of the old ways to play are going away or changing.

The last admin and pandemic really let the assholes make themselves known. They demanded in person dining, and then refused to ever cover up.

It’s the way it is. If you don’t want to tip, or leave shitty tips, stay home. Or at the very least, thank the other customers who do tip for making an environment possible where people are willing to wait tables. Those customers made your dining experience possible.

This has been the custom in the USA for decades and tipping. If you disagree I suggest you email your state representative advocating for a living wage for servers banning tipping

I agree. I am fine without bored, disinterested, and clueless waitstaff who expect a 20% tip - tipping is a horrible practice to begin with - I would much rather just pick up my food and leave.  Of course now people want to be tipped just for ringing food up or putting it in a bag. I resist such attempts at extortion…

“Think about the number of times you’ve asked your server to explain the flavors in a dish”

People are leaving the service industry because customers are rude, arrogant and cheap. The worst is the verbal tip. You were so great. um thanks for the 12% tip. Those 5 nice tables that tipped well do not make up for the one asshole table that makes your night a living hell. And the house always backs up the…

Yeah from a casual gamer’s perspective that’s a big issue with BR games. I haven’t played Fortnite so maybe that’s different but for PUBG and Apex Legends it got boring after a while spending 10 minutes grabbing stuff and then getting killed only to do it all over again. At least with squadmatch games or even good ol’…

It is a bit odd that he says “SKWADD”, but then goes onto say “squadron” normally later on.

It’s interesting; I don’t think the intent was cruel here, but there is nevertheless an clearly self-serving element to it all. She only decides to do it after Gene calls her on it, which can basically make it a case of “I’ll show him!”, and intentionally or not she has essentially made sure to do so at a point where…

As she pointed out to Cheryl, there’s no physical evidence of a crime thanks to Mike and his cleaning squad. Lalo—who actually killed Howard—as well as Gus and Mike—who knew where Howard and Lalo are buried—are all dead. The DA may prosecute for the fraud, but it’s unlikely.

Just because their marriage was on the rocks doesn’t mean she doesn’t think what happened to him was horrible.

The vocal self-righteous asshole vegans are the indelibly etched into people’s brains ones that come to the forefront of a topical concersation most quickly, not because they’re vegans but because they’re assholes. Many vegans I’ve known personally are performative fucks, virtue signaling with their veganism while…

An entire generation who have never heard of Dungeons and Dragons? In 2022? No.  I would greet them with the same disbelief I give the 40 year old Youtube reactors who claim they’ve never listened to Michael Jackson before.  Between Lord of the Rings, A Game of Thrones, and Stranger Things, D&D has always been a part…

... but it would certainly be less popular and sell less tickets entertaining.

Except similar things have absolutely happened in sports before. Organized professional sports have been around since the 1800s. You don’t think they’ve had organizational failures and rule breakdowns?

I feel mostly “okay” about Jenkins but that’s largely because he doesn’t have a huge body of work, he does adaptations so it’s not like he’s entirely self-generating story, and he works with co-writers. Lynch? Well... Yeah. I have very little use for Lynch. I’ve enjoyed some of his work, but mostly find him tiresome.…

Funny how all these directors few have given a shit about for a while are all whinging about the death of cinema in the same era as the one where David Lynch got Showtime to pay for 18 hours of his extremely niche surrealism and despite being on a television was regarded as the best “film” of the year.
