  • “you feel the spell take hold, but for some reason the crown remains rusty”

    Then you pivot that the rust is a powerful illusion or some kind of curse cast on the crown by someone related to that backstory to keep it hidden. Then while your players try to figure out why simply cleaning the rust didn’t work, you try to figure out how to weave in that backstory sooner than later.

    If you’re really not ready for it to happen, make sure they have some other quest to do that has a pressing time limit.


  • It really depends on how much you value your time and how good you are with configuration

    A QNAP or Synology will work and be pretty simple to configure out of the box. Installing custom software is possible, but can be tricky as they require you to enable sideloading and custom apps can be hard to find. Both have supported app stores with available apps to do what you’re looking for (QNAP has apps for both torrents and Plex. Not sure about Synology)

    However, you will get way more bang for your buck by building one from scratch using something like TrueNAS and the Arr stack, but this can require a fair bit of technical knowledge about configuring containers and securing network services(Especially if you want them to be accessible remotely)

    Most people here do selfhosting as a hobby and as a result, the time spent trying new configurations is negligible as it wouldn’t be much of a hobby otherwise.


  • As with most things of this nature, it’s presented in a way that makes it difficult to argue against, but the evil will come with how it is enforced.

    Basically everyone agrees that harmful content should be harder for children to access, and reigning in social media’s exploitation of psychology is laudable.

    Right now, there isn’t a good way to control access without handing a ton of personal information to a 3rd party agency with questionable oversight. When you want to access porn in meatspace, you share your name and age with the store clerk, who will promptly forget it. The system doesn’t translate to a digital medium with permanent records.

    Would be hell to play, though, there’s definitely better horny RPGs to try

    My issue with horny RPGs is that if you can find people to play with that are into whatever kink the book is catering to, why would you bother to play at all? Just have sex.

    And on the flipside, if you dont want to have sex with the people you’re playing with, why play the sexy game? Just play a regular RPG


  • It’s not fear of the freedom, it’s choice paralysis. People want to go to one website, sign up for one account and then be part of a network with absolutely zero research beforehand. I like the fediverse, but the barrier to entry is higher than that because it first requires you to understand the technology at a base level.

    Internet services getting shitty and then dying is nothing new. Look at MySpace, Digg, or any BBS. people just abandon the old one and join the new popular one. They’ll leave when it gets shitty enough and join the new thing
