    EN World What you thought a thread title said.

    And now I know the answer to that most burning question of our time: "What if Marvel got the rights to Charlotte's Web?"

    Would ACKS be a good fit to capture the BECMI-feel?

    I don't know what Buhlman is referring to in that quote, but imo, "gatekeeping TTRPGs" is slap-fighting about storygames and sandboxes; ascending and descending AC; or d20s and 2d6s and d10 pools. That's not what this is. The people in question aim to gatekeep society itself. While we are all...

    Pathfinder 1E In Pathfinder 1e, do half-elves and half-orcs get the human bonus feat by virtue of being half-human?

    I haven't played PF1e in a while, but I've never heard that. Humans, half-elves, and half-orcs are completely separate races as far as the rules are concerned, afaik. The extra feat is specific to humans, whereas half-elves and half-orcs each get their own set of racial traits.

    Green Ronin Crowdfunding Legal Defense Fund In Fight Against Diamond Distrubutors

    Glancing over the timeline attached to that article, I see this mess is a lot bigger and messier than I initially imagined. Yeeesh.

    D&D General D&D: Literally Don't Understand This

    Bonus points for bad CGI that's so bad it's even bad in a low-quality animated gif.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds - Season 3 Viewing (Spoilers)

    Oh! Now it makes sense: when Batel gently mocked Pike a couple episodes ago saying, "Where will your hair products go?" I thought she was making fun of his hair gel, but in fact she must have been referring to his hair's food.* * Perhaps it likes its spaghettium prepared aldentium?

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    This post is a bit confusing coming immediately after a post about Brazilian butt lifts.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Thanks to this particular case, I've already seen "techbromism" fluttering around online, trying to find its way into the greater slang lexicon.

    20-posts/page setting

    It looks like the "posts per page" option in Settings is gone, from my account at least. Here's a post from earlier this year (in an older thread) mentioning the issue. Doesn't look like it got/can be fixed?

    Imprinting on media

    Yes. I'm still miffed that Conan in the remake didn't have poofy bangs and wear neon-colored leg-warmers and/or parachute pants.

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    Personally I think the coin lands on the other side: that this is mostly hype (at least as far as LLM development goes). It seems to me that these guys are walking the line between "it'll fix all our problems" and "it'll destroy the world" intentionally, because that's exactly the sort of...

    SkyNet really is ... here?

    Whether one believes current AI is (or soon will be) a threat or not, it's been interesting to watch Sam Altman interviews last couple weeks where he's likened OpenAI's upcoming ChatGPT 5 to the Manhattan Project. He says he's worried about the profound ramifications of releasing a super-AI that...
