I guess, if you have one of those. Vastly more expensive and more involved to install, especially when renting. I’ve never used one because I’ve never been at a place with one.

It’s because those online guides are only relevant for people playing on unfair, yet those guides never/rarely mention that. Even on core I can do pure RP builds (with TB combat at least), all that minmaxing is only really important fo

This reminds me of Knights of the Dinner Table [0], a 90s D&D Parody cartoon magazine that later spawned its own TTRPG Hackmaster [1] (first with the 4th edition based on licensed D&D 1st ed, 5th ed is fully standalone (and less hum

At least for metal, there are still tons of tiny musicians. Underground labels do cassette runs for the smallest of them, medium-tiny ones might get vinyls. Bandcamp is chock full of bands, from home produced stuff, to bands spending saved

I have an alarm app for android (Gentle Alarm), that’s IMO by far the best there is (YMMV obviously, but I never found another one with the same features). It was originally paid, but long ago abandoned (as in: the dev disappeared completel

I use it (well, languagetool) in the free version for comments on sites like this. It directly catches mistakes I make, that I'd normally only catch on re-reads. From typos, over my brain doing weird stuff, to sometimes things I simply

Facebook, discord, reddit, HN. Hadn’t heard of it either. But for FB, Reddit, and Discord I strictly curate what I see.

Yeah, but OP made it seem like they were some kind of mandatory or at least default feature.

Cascading deletes are an optional feature in every DB that supports them, aren’t they? I only have DBA-ish experience with SQL Server, but there they are fully opt in.

I think the question was why whoever picked it up didn’t do anything with it, which points towards it not just being an issue of incompetence, but maybe an underlying issue of the technology.

Having to own a desktop would be somewhat technical already. And you need the right format. Nowadays, they support epub and you have the email thing (though as a sibling mentioned, they are apparently not allowing automatic email deliveries

Oh wow. The last few times I used it, it was promotional books, so I didn't realize it stopped being allowed for paid books. That does suck indeed.
