I had the same bug a while back after an outage on my instance. Simply logging out and back in fixed it for me

In my group if the GM can’t pronounce the name in one try in a way that makes it clear to us how to spell it the players with rename it something more like “Bonertown” or just “Dave”
I believe there’s also a Haversham Hill, which is also a hill hill hill hill

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Did I do a good deed or bad deed?English
17·12 days agoI agree with the consensus that this was a good thing to do.
It was perfect to leave before the shopper could reject it because it allows her to save face. Either she did need it but was too proud to admit it, or she actually didn’t need it and can just pay it forward.
Since you left quickly it made it clear there was no expectation that she should pay it back to you specifically, which could have had unsavory implications

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is anyone else noticing this weird trend of brand new accounts posting memes and comics and stuff, does not engage in comments, get upvoted to front page, then banned?English
2·13 days agoI haven’t noticed this at all and now I’m concerned that I’ve interacted with/upvoted bots :/
My rule is whenever anyone hands me a gun (why do people do that so often?) I always eject the magazine then rack the slide myself to verify. I don’t trust the other guy not to do it too fast and not to have his finger on the trigger
A faulty extractor would easily cause this issue. That’s why you also have to visibly inspect the chamber. A round would be easily visible while the slide is back.
ALWAYS treat every gun as if it is loaded

Linux@lemmy.ml•Does anybody here owns a PineNote? How usable is it?English
1·16 days agoFor web browsing I can navigate alright using spacebar to scroll. Naturally, that works best with a bluetooth keyboard attached, but you could resize the window and use the soft keyboard if you prefer. The “vimium” extension for Firefox makes keyboard navigation much nicer.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are your favorite fake video games?English
3·16 days agoI’ve never watched Black Mirror, but as someone who occasionally has nightmares there’s no way I’d play a horror game that is powered by my own thoughts

Linux@lemmy.ml•Does anybody here owns a PineNote? How usable is it?English
3·16 days agoI also have one and agree with your conclusion. My PineNote is so cool and really fun to use!
I use mine most often for displaying and editing my character sheet while playing tabletop RPGs.
The display looks great and mine doesn’t have the stuck pixel or the buggy lines issue you experienced, though I do have very noticeable ghosting artifacts. Probably this is because I mainly use the “performance” optimization setting rather than “quality”. Animations play very poorly, so I found it necessary to use extensions to disable animations wherever possible.
Also, of course, the screen is only black and white so sometimes you lose out on information. E.g. if my GM says “the goblin that stole the flask is highlighted yellow. The one highlighted pink is standing his ground. What do you do?” I would not be able to tell them apart.
I get acceptable but not fantastic battery life. Usually after about 3 hours I’ll have around 60% life left. It would probably be better if I was using a lighter program than Firefox. Mine also has phantom battery drain and loses maybe 15% battery life per day if left unplugged while suspended.
I paid $460 USD for mine, shortly before the import tariffs were implemented.
Overall, I would recommend it for someone who meets these criteria:
- is a Linux enthusiast comfortable with the command line and willing to read and follow various guides (there’s a long README that opens on boot which has crucial information in it, like how to fix critical bugs)
- wants to avoid proprietary lock in wherever possible
- wants to avoid shovel ware and use mainline Linux
- wants to support FOSS development and doesn’t mind paying extra to do so
- understands the severe limitations of an e-ink display
I would not recommend it to most people because it is an enthusiast Linux device with an e-ink display. If you’re the kind of person that specifically wants an enthusiast Linux device with an e-ink display then I think you’ll love it

I was really excited to install PostmarketOS on my Oneplus 6 but it didn’t boot afterward. It turns out I actually have a Oneplus 5, which is very different. Amazingly, the tools available for these devices allowed me to recover from being bricked.
It’s now running LineageOS but between its limited hardware features and its bad battery it is a glorified alarm clock

8·28 days agoSpecifically, breaking the just world illusion is unpleasant and exhausting because it removes the only reassurance they have that they are good people.
If they prosper in a just world then they are good. If you convince them the world is unjust then they have to grapple with being an awful person who has done and said awful things.
It’s virtually impossible to convince someone of that
