<2022-04-22T23:16:29.000Z> tengumatingpress: think you'd be interested in joining a 1E AD&D campaign? wanting to start it up soon, trying some shit
<2022-04-22T23:22:14.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: if you can get the people I’d be more than happy to. I’ll have to track down a digital rulebook and familiarize myself. My availability is mostly overnights and early mornings EST but if you wanted to do something in evenings I could move my sleep around
<2022-04-22T23:22:36.000Z> tengumatingpress: ah, nice
<2022-04-22T23:24:26.000Z> tengumatingpress: files.catbox.moe/juakpe.pdf
<2022-04-22T23:24:32.000Z> tengumatingpress: here's the PHB
<2022-04-22T23:25:06.000Z> tengumatingpress: not sure if this is something you'd be interested in, but I'm also wanting domain-level NPCs or monster factions played by humans, been reading about guys that have been trying that recently and am wanting to try it
<2022-04-22T23:26:36.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: This is the third fedi game I’ve been invited to and I’ve yet to play, focus on getting players together that can bang out a coherent schedule first
<2022-04-22T23:29:28.000Z> tengumatingpress: yeah, probably best
<2022-04-22T23:29:43.000Z> tengumatingpress: ideally I'll be running it in a sandboxy style where guys being unable to make every session won't be a hassle, but that's probably smart
<2022-04-27T23:06:45.000Z> tengumatingpress: alright, have confirmation from other players, first Saturday of May
<2022-04-27T23:06:54.000Z> tengumatingpress: when it's closer to that time I'll make the discord server 
<2022-04-27T23:07:14.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: fuck discord lets just use my matrix server
<2022-04-27T23:08:36.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: >download matrix client (I like fluffychat, on windows use element)>change server from matrix.org to glower.agency (important step, I'm going to kick people and make them do it again if they don't do this)>sign up
<2022-04-27T23:12:19.000Z> tengumatingpress: I'll see if I can get the others to agree to Matrix
<2022-04-27T23:12:47.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: I mean discord is a hard no for me so if you don't count me out, I refuse to use platforms I don't host if I can avoid it.
<2022-04-27T23:13:10.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: worst case, graf also runs a matrix server and you can host your own with minimal effort
<2022-04-27T23:13:25.000Z> tengumatingpress: I'll talk to the others
<2022-04-27T23:26:17.000Z> tengumatingpress: >the only matrix clients packaged on OpenBSD don't support voip
<2022-04-27T23:26:19.000Z> tengumatingpress: well fuck
<2022-04-27T23:26:41.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: matrix doesn't support voip by default
<2022-04-27T23:26:44.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: we run a jitsi server for that
<2022-04-27T23:27:29.000Z> tengumatingpress: yeah, the friends I have recruited aren't going to download multiple things for a game, sorry
<2022-04-27T23:27:37.000Z> tengumatingpress: I'll keep you in mind if I ever get more guys willing to do that though
<2022-04-27T23:27:40.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: >download
<2022-04-27T23:27:42.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: its all in browser
<2022-04-27T23:27:48.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: well, jitsi is
<2022-04-27T23:28:12.000Z> tengumatingpress: ah
<2022-04-27T23:29:50.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: and you can use app.element.io if you're really really allergic to downloading electron apps 
<2022-04-27T23:49:07.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: https://wiretap.glower.agency/ if you want to trial jitsi, just set it up
<2022-04-28T00:26:00.000Z> tengumatingpress: yeah, a few of them aren't willing to join Matrix
<2022-04-28T00:26:22.000Z> tengumatingpress: might have to get a matrix anyway though, getting a feeling discord might start cracking down more
<2022-04-28T00:27:17.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: Discord addicts aren't worth spending time with anyway, so I'm sorry I won't be able to join your game
<2022-04-28T00:38:49.000Z> tengumatingpress: yeah, fair enough
<2022-04-28T00:40:03.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: if you're personally interested mine is open and the poast one is pretty well maintained other than when its not
<2022-04-28T00:40:17.000Z> tengumatingpress: so I've heard
<2022-04-28T00:40:33.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: but he's fixed that issue and I started with a fix for it
<2022-04-28T00:40:35.000Z> tengumatingpress: might get on that, been meaning to check it out for a while
<2022-04-28T00:40:39.000Z> tengumatingpress: what happened there?
<2022-04-28T00:41:24.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: the software doesn't scale well to hundreds of thousands of users and the matrix.org general chat has that many, so if anyone from your server joins their general it eventually bogs you down 
<2022-04-28T00:41:44.000Z> tengumatingpress: ah, that explains that instruction
<2022-04-28T00:42:26.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: yeah, you don't want to sign up on the default anyway, the people who run it are hyperliberal retards
<2022-04-28T00:42:51.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: (matrix is, as most federated platforms are, hammered dogshit, but its the least hammered dogshit we have)
<2022-04-28T00:44:08.000Z> tengumatingpress: at least matrix has a standard that does most of what everyone would want it to and the clients don't seen incompatible 
<2022-04-28T00:44:13.000Z> tengumatingpress: so better than xmpp
<2022-04-28T00:59:29.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: at least I can set up matrix without some arcane fucking knowledge so yeah its better than xmpp
<2022-04-28T00:59:47.000Z> tengumatingpress: I have good memories of forum xmpp chats, but it died for a reason
<2022-05-18T20:15:50.000Z> tengumatingpress: you've mentioned doing shrooms before, curious who the reliable spore vendors are
<2022-05-18T20:15:59.000Z> tengumatingpress: since you actually are allowed to buy them if you don't cultivate, for some reason
<2022-05-18T20:16:49.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: I wouldn't buy anything related to drugs online, with a credit card, or attached to my address unless it was glassware to smoke weed out of, and even then I'd be sketchy
<2022-05-18T20:16:58.000Z> tengumatingpress: ah
<2022-05-18T20:17:21.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: I've heard of people getting away with it but it seems like a really fucking retarded idea, akin to buying solvent traps for firearms
<2022-05-18T20:17:30.000Z> tengumatingpress: fair enough
<2022-05-18T20:18:03.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: if you're interested in growing mushrooms of any kind, I recommend finding a local grower, getting to know them, getting to know their produce, and getting spore prints from them
<2022-05-18T20:18:18.000Z> tengumatingpress: have to figure out where to find them 
<2022-05-18T20:19:03.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: get a blue collar job, go hang out at college bars, or ask your drug friendly friends
<2022-05-18T20:19:17.000Z> tengumatingpress: I'll ask around
<2022-05-18T20:20:02.000Z> sapphire@shortstackran.ch: I'm personally not a fan, too many downsides for not enough upsides for me
