At the very least, my steam copy on windows 10 worked just fine a week ago on my yearly playthrough.

Because I like having options, and I don’t like missing out on plot or dialogue if I don’t have to. She’s an interesting character that I think would have good interactions with the rest of the party.

Because I was playing a good character, which meant that if I wanted the tieflings to live then Minthara had to die. With the update, there is a canonical path for both the tieflings and Minthara to live.

There is that, but I feel the changes with Minthara count; I’d have liked to have had her as a companion, but I’d already killed her and was multiple hours into act 2 before the patch allowing her to be saved and recruited into any party was released.

I don’t name my machines anything special, but I’ve started naming my internal hard drives/samba shares after planets, and external drives after moons.

Yeah, check out the program Flashpoint, at Flashpointarchive.org. They’ve got a bunch of old flash games and flash movies saved.

Even the remake of Pirates! is fantastic.

When I helped my father run ethernet in my family’s home, we ran cables up to the attic, dropped them down to specific rooms between the walls, then drilled holes for panels as needed.

High rollers! I’ve been meaning to listen to that, mostly because I’m a big hat films fan. Is there a good starting point?

You use a plugin called Fanficfare to get it to work, though the news feature is good for blogs and other sites! Here’s the tutorial.

I can’t say there was a worst interaction, but there’s two candidates for best. The first is that when he was just starting out, shittywatercolour painted one of my photographs.
The second is not just a reddit thing, but about 7 years ago I wrote a tutorial for r/fanfiction on how to use calibre to save stories from various websites. It was well received at the time, but since them ive had multiple times where people said it was useful, including one a couple weeks ago on a completely different website.

I’m a big fan of sorcerers; it gives me a nice balance of having fun spells to use while not having to manage which ones I’ve “prepared.” My first character was a half elf draconic bloodline sorcerer, and I had a ton of fun playing him.

There’s a bunch of creative writing type subreddits that I lurked on; hfy, writingprompts, fanfiction, that sort of thing.
