THIS IS THE MOST SPECIFIC THING THATS EVER HAPPENED

Yo, I'm on the fediverse at @carl@konvergo.co.uk Twitter just tried to sell me an NFT profile pic. Lol.

I'm speechless. Not peer-reviewed yet but a submitted paper. The 'presented images' were shown to a group of humans. The 'reconstructed images' were the result of an fMRI output to Stable Diffusion. In other words, #stablediffusion literally read people's minds. Source 👇

@BardicQuest Gelatinous cube!

If one D&D monster was made the size of a whale, which would be the scariest?

@BardicQuest Dolmenwood, coming this year! ❤️

If you had to pick a favourite published Dungeons and Dragons campaign setting, which would you choose?

So, there are a lot of folks out there looking to give #Pathfinder2E a try, and I've been seeing this question quite a bit Where do I start? Well, let me help you on your quest, and please feel free to share this far and wide! 🧵1/12

@Wayne_Ingram Time to edit out "make a X check, to hit, etc" and just publish the outcomes! Seriously though this is all dumb #OGL

Genuine thought on the #OGL. If game mechanics can’t be copyrighted, only the expression of said rules, then surely WOTC cannot lay claim to any actual plays unless it is explicitly stated to be the WOTC game? Mechanical expression in actual plays surely belong to the performers?

@BardicQuest Turned up to Wednesday night public play and @Wayne_Ingram was DMing. Hooked ever since!

How was it that you got started / were introduced to playing D&D?

@obrackenbury See you all on Wordpress I guess!

Google seems like a pretty simple app. It’s just a text input box with a bunch of web links as an output. Does it really need more than 10 engineers to maintain?

@BardicQuest Sounds like it's time to print it all out as props and hide a hidden clue in there 😉

It's an occupational hazard... 😬

After seeing the @clickspring1 workshop I will never complain about having too little space. Can't believe he does all he does in that space 🤯 Gives me some ideas for Zurich.
