You can get a successful new party but only if one of the two big ones completely self-destructs and creates a power vacuum. And even then the new party will probably be a faction of the defunct one. There definitely won't be a three-party constellation for more than a brief period.

PO: Someone else figure out how to repeat what he did.

Second developer: Sorry, I tried to make sense of his rocket design but I can't figure out how to make a copy that doesn't explode before we even put the fuel in.

Yes. This mainly happens when everyone has different expectations without realizing it. That's why is important to talk about these things in advance so you don't end up with a GM who thinks it's obvious that PCs can die at any time due any reason and a player who thinks it's obvious that they won't.

Eh, it all depends on what the players and GM want. If everyone's okay with death lurking behind every corner then that's cool. If everyone agrees that death only happens in special preplanned scenes that's also cool. There's only a problem if expectations mismatch.

I can imagine that Raine and King know full well where she is any why she's there. And that they paid these guys a couple snails so they'd annoy Eda when she wakes up.

If you want a snake and a pie chart, at least have the snake do something with it like carrying the chart in its mouth.

Perhaps you can do the biblical scene of the snake tempting Adam and Eve but this time it's the snake tempting managers with a useless pie chart.

That model looks strangely familiar.

Oh yeah, that's why. I helped with this series. (Or did you do two similar ones?) Cool to hear it's going to be exhibited.

A friend of mine works in marketing (think "websites for small companies"). They use an LLM to turn product descriptions into early draft advertising copy and then refine from there. Apparently that saves them some time.

Except that the Enterprise only sometimes went crazy while "every system aboard DS9 broke simultaneously, three ships need urgent repairs, and Quark is yammering about how his illegally modified replicators are acting up" seemed to be a somewhat common occurrence.

Unfortunately many brutalistic buildings are far off from its peak and just look like lazily designed gray blobs. High-effort brutalism can look good (or can look inappropriately evil but that's besides the point); low-effort brutalism always looks cheap.

Counterpoint: The rest of the Fediverse can see it too so it's not just for Lemmy.
