I’m late but it did happen in a wednesday. Played a duet session of the TTRPG Delta Green with my SO, and added an extremely forward male NPC to help her character out, which lended itself perfectly to me making her flustered irl and lightening up the mood, and also helped with the combat sections and parts where she might have felt stuck. Pretty great session!
Home lab: attempting to get WireGuard working after my OpenVPN certificates expired and figured it’s time to switch
Cycling: half assed a brake bleed, need to go full steam to resolve my issues
I setup my own mini server for the first time running nextcloud. Now need to figure out backups
Actually making progress on getting some minis painted. I had an unsuccessful attempt at making a pearlescent insect wing and got glitter everywhere. Going to try a different method this week. Otherwise, the sword bandits, burning undead, and hives are ready for varnishing and the komuso monks and fire wizards are coming along. My painting is adequate, so they’re nothing that’s going to win contests, but I’m glad to have more things painted when my friends gather to play.
Made a fun little spiked leather bracelet
Finally resolved an issue with Tailscale and DNS. Unbound on my VPS kept serving records too slowly from a distant (~200ms) upstream DNS server, Tailscale would return
SERVFAILthen iOS/macOS would cache it for a long time.I’m not sure how it’s fixed but simply swapping out Unbound with Blocky solved the problem.
I’ve been working on a home media server setup with all of my copied physical disks. I just got the backup ISP, and am working to get remote access to that specific server.
If anybody wants to do this, Jellyfin is a free source for a media server.
I imagine that you’ve seen it, but as your account is quite new, have a look at Selfhosted@lemmy.world. Lots of good people giving good advice :)
Hey I will. Thanks!
I’m hammering out a set of solo RP oracles for actual publication. The first two (of four) are completed as of today.
I’m dying to start a solo campaign of The One Ring 2e. The new source book just came out with an Elf Lord option for solo play and that might just tip the scale
Nice! I wish I could get into solo RP but have never been able to find a game that works for me that way.
Have you looked at journalling games? Thousand Year Old Vampire was pretty fun to me
I’ve tried a few journaling games but can’t find the motivation to play them regularly. At one point I thought about setting up an Obsidian vault to randomly pick a setup so I could just open the app and essentially start writing but even that I lost motivation for. I think solo RPGs just may not be for me, y’know?
I worked on the cross-stitch project I started. It’s a freeform tapestry. I’m just cross-stitching whatever the fuck I feel like on it and not following a pattern. I haven’t even finished the first part of the border yet. It’s huge
Installed Arch Linux for the first time on an old laptop as guinea pig before my desktop. Wasn’t as difficult as I expected though there are definitely some oddities in the wiki that threw me off here and there.
Also finished a Necron that had been on my table for months!
