Hah, I’ve never gotten a bobblehead because I always use external ship view. I was today years old when I learned that they had a mechanical benefit.
I spend my quicksilver on building parts. I’ve gotten the few cosmetics for my traveler and ship that I need, but I really like having artwork on my base walls, so I buy all the posters.
This is the best thing I’ve seen all month.
If I understand correctly, the opinion explicitly focuses on Indian tribes as nations – i.e. legal entities – not races.
So as much as I love the NMSGlyphExchange sub format, and want to get it recreated here, don’t sleep on https://nmsce.com/ for your ship-searching needs!
Nope, it was really just the language and writing style. Actual plot was OK.
Recently filled in one of the gaps in the Culture series by the late, great Iain M Banks (that I didn’t even realize I’d missed!). Surface Detail is another quality entry, dealing with virtual afterlives and presents a little more context of the Culture in a broader galactic context than we normally see it.
I got through the first book in Three Body, but while I liked some of the philosophical and crazy-tech explorations, I really struggled with the writing/translation style. It was so stilted and awkward to read that it put me off trying to read the following volumes.
Great in-depth breakdown, but an important takeaway is that it’s prohibitively difficult to build an effective psionic in 5e with “normal” stat-generation. There’s a lot of hangover of 1e’s bias of “oh, you died, just roll another character” – eventually one will pop up with three >16 mental scores.
Still, it’s a fascinating rock-scissors-paper(-lizard-Spock) minigame system, and a nice way to revisit the edition of All The Tables.
I ran into this same frustrating problem. The whole “fetches in the background after you search” thing makes sense in a very “you are technically correct” kind of way, but it would be a much better user experience to just have a spinner and wait for the community/post to be fetched, rather than gaslight users.
Further weirdness: It still doesn’t resolve by URL for me on lemmy.one, but now that @moonleay@feddit.de was able to find it, I can get results back with the string “no man” – but both are listed as having zero subscribers??
None of the No Man’s Sky subs have shown indications of moving, which bums me out. I’d much rather get my glyphs, neat screenshots, and wild speculation from a forum rather than Discord.
The search didn’t work for me, coming from lemmy.one. Didn’t even show a “no results” message. Copypastaing the whole URL worked, but that is a deeply wonky interface :(
Thank you though! Subscribed.
How do I subscribe to that sopuli one, since it doesn’t show up in my local search results?
Grah! Greetings, interloper!!

Per Steam: 1138 hours in New World, which is surprising only because I thought No Man’s Sky was going to crush it. Apparently not! Only 784 hours there, but since I’ve returned to it as my game of choice lately, there’s room to grow.
[edit] oh man, I forgot Pokémon Go. I can’t figure out how to get hours on there but probably a bunch.
Broken on lemmy.one as well
Mostly just: target walls. I often then put a florescent tube light – scaled down and rotated on the long axis – right above the poster to give it a gallery-like lighting effect.
Sometimes, depending on wall-building wonkiness, certain posters will clip through. Best thing I can suggest then is to put two flat-panels on the wall, overlapping and scaled down to just larger than you want your poster to be, then put the poster on top of those. Gives a nice “frame” effect. Buuuuuut that can be wonky too, and some posters will sometimes clip through the flat panels, for Reasons known only to HG.
Alternately, sometimes you can put a second poster on top of where the clipped one went, and that will stack enough that the second one sits “one top” of the wall.
