Best of luck to you. I think my code is quite messy but if you can use any of it, feel free!

Okay, would’ve been interesting to see

Pretty similar but I couldn’t get re-rolls to work on there. That’s the main reason I made this

I wish you best of luck. Feel free to re-use any of my code if you think it could be helpful. Even though in my opinion it is a huge mess

What was the app called and is it still available?

No, there is no advantage or disadvantage functionality. I made it purely for balancing, so finding out the average damage a character would do. In that case I would just write out all the different rolls the character would do when attacking and have the program calculate using that. It’s pretty barebones

I believe it doesn’t handle any of that right now. I admittedly only play D&D so that’s the use-case I based this on. The scenario you’re describing sounds really complex and I have no idea how I would implement that kind of functionality currently

Thank you very much. I, too, initially used a sampling approach but that was obviously inefficient and inaccurate. Getting this to work was a HUGE pain so it’s nice to read some kind words about it, thank you

So you would have a pool of 14 dice and you can re-roll the lowest 4 or any 4 dice?

Well, I had a look at anydice.com but I couldn’t get re-rolls to work. So I made this specifically with re-roll functionality in mind. All in all they’re pretty similar, though.

Yes, yes I did… It’s here

Thank you for pointing that out

Yeah, I understand the possible applications and they do sound quite useful. Scheduled posting, for example, is really cool. The word “bot” just doesn’t make it sound like client features to me but that’s most likely a me issue. It looks very promising, keep up the good work

So wait, this is basically just a Bluesky client that allows you to alter the text you’re about to post in some way or another?

Then I don’t get why you would call that a bot. The way it’s phrased I imagined everyone posting from bot accounts

Okay… why?

You mean the absolute fuckwaffel, I presume. The fuckwaffel is located near the heart and makes you feel like something’s wrong with your heart every other day

Probably his phone

When it comes to decisions like this, I usually make a list with my options, create some categories (e.g. durability, longevity, performance, …), rate each option for each category and then divide each option’s points by its price to see its value. If they’re fairly similar, I would take the time I’d need to save up for them into account.

In general, I would always want to go for A) upgrading what I already have or B) getting something used for the sake of sustainability.

You could look at some more used ThinkPad options like a T470 or a T480. They can often be found for cheap refurbished on eBay. I would also take a look at online benchmarks to see what fits your requirements. In my experience, that works better than looking at spec sheets.

I’ve used phyphox for lots of stuff. It’s great for looking at raw data from your phone’s sensors but there are also a lot of great experiments built in to the app. The university that develops it has a playlist showcasing them all, it’s a great way to spend a weekend.

Well, yeah. If your requirement is “no corporate”, then Pop doesn’t fit. However, if you don’t want to use Ubuntu because it’s a product of Canonical, I would still go ahead and recommend Pop, since it’s A) not by Canonical and B) a wholly different kind of corporate backing

Okay, so you can have intuitive and easy to use mouse gestures to speed up your browsing experience… But why wouldn’t you use Vimium and use your keyboard with 32697 unintuitive keybindings instead?
