Yikes; I've got one player who would go straight for a Sorcerer so he could just do Sickening Radiance followed by a quickened Wall of Force to just microwave whatever he wanted.

Mint was always my go to; feels just enough like the best parts of Windows to be immediately comfortable. Didn't have any problems until I switched to bleeding edge hardware; since then, I've been on Garuda, which had also been fine but more fiddly.

For the game I run, we're just remote, even though we're all in the same town and could be in person. For the group I'm a player in, we sometimes do remote, sometimes in person. When we play in person, then DM keeps Foundry on the TV. We bring laptops so we can interact with it.

As a side note one of the things I love about Foundry is how well it pairs with Dungeondraft, which is also purchase-once rather than subscription based. Makes it really easy to have custom maps

So exposing information about users (how they log in) without authenticating that you're someone authorized to have that information?

The better way to do this is to just have "log in with Google" or whatever buttons.

They aren't doing Living World any more though, are they? I thought the plan was one smaller expansion a year, then quarterly updates?

Rime of the Frostmaiden looks really cool (no pun intended), but I haven't gotten to actually run it 'cause I'm doing a huge homebrew thing.

Thanks! I've got a server at home for media stuff at the moment; I was going to throw the Home Assistant software on there too. I'll look into hubs, and hope that Phillips doesn't lock me out of my lightbulbs before that shows up.

I think what they're saying is that you can buy that hub and continue to use your existing Hue products. Or are you saying that you can currently use them through Home Assistant without that hub? I'm curious because I've got a bunch of Hue bulbs and I'm looking into swapping over to Home Assistant because of this license change, and it's not clear to me what I need in order to do that.

Boo, paywall. Anyone have a list of the affected airlines?
