@salvaterra.bsky.social I like following your art, but you also repost the anti-AI faith circles. These consistently contain misinformation and hate. I'm fully open to factually based discussions on AI, but not those.

Pretty good yardstick I'd say. Means "you can GM for ~2 players fewer online than you can in person" and "good prep give you the capacity to handle 1-3 extra players". Those track. One factor I might add is +1 or +2 if you run a session weekly, -1 for monthly, but +1 for yearly except for one-offs

Anyone had success using a generative #AI to produce #OpenSCAD code? Any way to load an STL model into the AI as a reference?

This was fun: "o1, build a simulator of a D&D guild hall. Persistent characters come in, get quests, interact with each other, leave & return, make it procedurally generated" I kept asking it to add other ideas (relationships, etc) 8 times, got no errors, just worked each time. Desire-based coding!

If people are asking 'are RPG blogs dead?' then the hour has come again - that cannot die which eternal lies - gather the blogs for the r/osr blogroll! www.reddit.com/r/osr/commen... #ttrpg #DnD #bx #OSE #DIYrpg #rpg #GLOG #OSR #POSR #NSR #ASR

My challenge rating for online gaming: the # players, +1 per party split, +2 for discord, +2 for VTT, +1 for improvising detail or +3 for improvising everything. My limit is 10, and sweetspot is 8.

I'm actually surprised how much fun it has been playing Serpent Kings / Little Brown Books with an AI DM and PCs with blocks & pulls.

So happy to see @darjr.bsky.social also fired up about #CaltechWarlock, an amazing #DnD fork from the earliest days of the game.
