Like GW, gamers can't and shouldn't entrust their joy or dollars to WOTC. These companies only exist to exploit; they have no respect for or understanding of their customers (except maybe that they will probably keep buying no mat

This is a really cool project, but I would recommend the designs based on this one. Adereth had access to a very nice 3d printer when designing the dactyl, so it's difficult to print one with fdm. I love this project, and it introduced

Since we're talking decaying infrastructure and Pennsylvania, it seems a good time to remind people that US dams need work, too. A collapsed bridge is nothing compared to a failed dam like the Austin Dam failure, which is worth a visit

I used to love Postman, but with their recent updates, it has become nearly useless for work. They've clearly made it cumbersome to collaborate with collections via git so that you have to pay for their service, and the cost of the ser
