They are external ports for water cooling. They allow you to run the pipes to an exterior location, and I have never seen anyone use them ever. I would leave the rubber grommet as it generally looks nicer than the hole.

• Convert it into 1,500 pennies
• Fashion a slingshot from a balloon, tube, and some tape.
• Have fun shooting cans, balloons, people, etc.

And the ability to disable categories of notifications so that these “offers” can never pester me again is one of the greatest intentions of the digital age.

Caves are outdoors because a bunker is indoors and the cave around it is outdoors.

The idea of a standardized container that is so sexy. Bonus points if it comes in a variety of sizes that perfectly scale and tesselate together.

“Order! Order in the Court!”

I don’t think an inflatable wrench would work very well.

Manual? You mean the half-finished wiki someone put together that is the only source of information while also missing the information I need?

There’s a lot of narrative potential there. Why would a group of rag-tag bandits attack a squad of seasoned fighters? Perhaps they were misled by their cruel leader who tortures those who fail to “motivate” the remaining bandits.

The leader could be secretly backed by a powerful noble who is funding the bandits as a way to remove competition. The leader doesn’t need the bandits, so their lives are expendable, but the bandits are the outcast, down trodden, and desperate who have no alternatives.

What seems to be a simple case of greedy bandits suddenly becomes a power struggle between noble houses with the backing of the crown. Killing the leader may solve the issue in the short term, but the nobles will just install a new chump to continue the plan. Killing the nobles will have greater consequences across the kingdom. Disposing the crown will throw the kingdom into chaos.

And it all starts with one, desperate highway man begging for his life in the mud while the party thinks “it’s just a bandit, they’re evil, so they deserve to die.”

Sure, lizard folk can do so many pushups and a normal lizard mainly just quits runs away after the first one. No contest.

The only reason to still check Twitter is to see if they have moved off Twitter yet.

The return of the oral tradition to pass information down. Everything is volatile and contingent on there being a discord server with people who can tell you about it.

“Oh tha’s nice. Good grip on the bottom, large top to hit with, large middle for deflection. Too bad ya made it out of this weak wood or it would be an excellent weapon!”

“That is a chair you brute! Was a chair. Now it’s fire wood…”

“Ya can sit on it too? Genius! Just needs a place to hold a drink and it could be perfect!”

“… That’s a good idea, actually…”

Perception check? Nat 1. There’s probably like 6 nails there.

Oh, absolutely, but it’s better to escalate. Sometimes you can’t put the toothpaste back in the tube.

Being polite costs you nothing but may buy you much.

The suffix “gaming” implies bright colors, low quality, and a higher price tag. It’s right next to “premium” for identifying garbage products.

Also, I’ve had so many cheap chairs in my life that just failed. The “leather” peels, the gas lift breaks, or the seat cushion wears out and causes pain and discomfort.

That said, you can buy new gas lifts to fix a sinking chair very cheap and buy additional cushions to reduce pressure. If you can’t afford a good chair, don’t keep buying new bad ones!

Because then words like “evidence” and “premeditated” get thrown around.

You advance relationships during long rests, but I wasn’t taking them. Because I never reached the next relationship milestone before the next act, I instead had a cutscene where the character, Karlach, laments the lost connection despite the fact I was very much into them.

Or when Karlach hit me with the “I thought we really had something there, but I guess not.” At the start of act 3 that made me save scum, fix it, and put an indefinite hold on playing.
