In one of my dungeons, there was a trapped carpet which caused people who sat on it to belive they were riding a flying carpet. It was in fact an animated carpet, so the barbarian who believed he was flying around the castle was in fact just scooting forward an inch at a time

Hammer of Dwarf Throwing.

Can only be attuned to by dwarves. As a bonus action, the user may expend a charge to be launched from the location of the hammer towards a target, leaving the hammer behind.

I mean, same here, but if an influencer migrates from Twitter they usually bring their fans with them.

One of those pillows that looks like an inflating phone battery.

Better idea: 3"*4" Magnetic viewing film, stored in a thoughtfuk card, which is wrapped in a box with 6"*6" thermochromatic film, which is itself is wrapped in a box with a roll of glow in the dark tape, and then given to them with another thoughtful card that holds a gift card to somewhere you think they would like. Basically a nesting set of tiny cool things that all cost about as much as the wrapping paper they are in.

I agree with the other commenter’s points, but one thing I think people forget to mention is that BlueSky feels like Twitter in a way Mastodon just doesn’t. When I am trying to pitch Mastodon to people, I usually compare it to Tumblr because the vibes are similar.

Mastodon is also flat out hostile to influencers, and by that I mean the platform is designed to be terrible to influencers. The lack of an alogarithm means you can’t game the system, no quote tweets means you get less opportunities to spread, no reply limiting means your notifications are going to be going nuts from the replies. The culture on Mastodon is difficult to game too, since people there expect thoughtful responses to their replies.

Well, what snapped me out was when I ran an experiment that proved how strong the placebo effect could be, which caused me to reflect on my beliefs and realize that literally all the Werewolf wizard powers I thought I had could be explained by the placebo effect. Naturally, I concluded that I couldnt trust anything my senses told me and spent a few days trying to figure out how to deal with the possibility of being a brain in a jar.

And of course, right after I’d rebuilt my entire conception of reality from first principles, that’s when I found out that some of the memories I had of things I was most proud of and defined myself by were provably false. So, as you would expect from me considering my calm and careful reaction to the placebo effect, I then decided that all my memories couldn’t be trusted.

So, can’t trust my senses, cant trust my memories. That’s pretty much all the things I can use to define myself. So, based on the lack of valid evidence I concluded that I do not exist.

And that’s how I stopped being a flat-earther wizard werewolf. Thankfully eventually I came around to agreeing with Descartes on the whole “I think, therefore I am” thing. After I climbed out of the psychological hole I dug over the next six months, I recovered with only a severely crippling fear of advertisements.

I believed there was a big hole in the north pole where the magnetic field comes out

I was convinced a was a Werewolf with psychic powers. Also that the hollow earth is real, because that’s where the mole people aliens come from. And I also thought the Big Bang Theory was funny.

This is because your friend is a wizard, and their personal objects pick up a magical blue-purple hue the more they are handled. This is a gradual process, so it’s not noticeable on most of their things, but they wear their glasses every day so they pick up the hue at a steady rate.

Yes. But is it moral? Also yes. Will you get sued? Almost certainly not.

It works. Well, it works about as well as your average LLM

User error

In all seriousness, the biggest benefit of apple products is that the user experience just does not change over time. They are very conservative with the changes they do make, even though they will hype them up as the next big revolution in computing. It just seems arcane to you because you aren’t used to it. Apple is great for old people because things stay the same forever

Edit: I reread your comment and realized I completely misunderstood you. Yeah, apple is super behind and is lacking basic features for the reason I just mentioned. For a while you couldn’t even copy/paste on the iPhone. Really dumb imho. But the good thing is that things look the same forever, so you never have to be confused by your phone’s layout changing when you get a new phone.

I think the strongest feature of Android is that many apps are released first on Android and take months or years before they are ported to iOS. And even when they do, they are missing functionality I take for granted on Android. iOS is in fact more secure in general (if we assume Apple is altruistic) but this comes at the cost of basic things like apps running in the background, informative notifications and notification history, spam call filtering, and fast charging.

Also, if you are a normie it’s a big plus to have all the default Google apps pre-installed on most phones. If you aren’t, it’s a big plus to have the freedom to strip all non-foss apps from your phone, replace the OS with a more FOSS-friendlt OS, and otherwise customize your phone.

If it’s acting weird, assume it’s got a parasite.

Most the really chaotic ones are on Lemmygrad. Which is why nearly everyone defederated from them

Holy crap why have I never thought of this

Kbin’s equivalent of communities are magazines. Similarly, Masodon’s equivalent are Groups.

My retort was in fact a joke. I am terminally online and even I only average about 6 hours. But thank you

Edit: Just checked, my average screen time this week was about 7 hours per day.

you tend to have your phone off most of the time

Bold assumption
