"He takes those fifty-odd dice and rolls them a second time. After about an hour of concentrated dice rolling, he'll end up with around two or three dice that have rolled two ones in a row. He takes those primed dice and places them in special custom-made padded containers where they can't roll around, and carries them to all the games he plays."

"Then, when in the most dire circumstances, where a roll of one would be absolutely disastrous, he pulls out the prepared dice. He now has in his hand a die that has rolled two ones in a row. Pete knows the odds of a d20 rolling three ones in a row is a puny one in 8,000. He has effectively pre-rolled the ones out of the die, and can make his crucial roll with confidence. Furthermore, being scientific about it means he knows that it doesn't matter who rolls the die for the third time, so he has no qualms about sharing his primed dice with other players, if that's what it takes to avoid disaster."

(non-)gendering in stores 

get thing about the store where i got my new glasses yesterday is there was no gendering on the displayed collections. So just going through and actually picking glasses that fit you, no matter (perceived) gender identity.. all the other stores i went to clearly marked their collections male, female, kids (the third gender)

emptied 2 boxes; the food one and the server+randomthings one, and sorted almost all the random things into these drawers

somebody’s letting off fireworks outside. it’s 22:57, you chucklefucks have three minutes to get this revelry out of your systems

NTN: None-of-your-business to None-of-your business

oh! the mini-sas cables came in, 50cm and thinner wires so muuch easier to cable-manage than the thick 100cm ones :D (not tested yet tho)

cleaning scorched-earth style by dumping everything on my bed so I'll have to finish sorting it before I can sleep

It’s a fantastic night in the city, and you are a blessed dove.

i kinda really wanted to put some time into GTS templating frontend stuff today but also I should probably really unpack some more boxes and organize my new room..

lol my new neighbours have probably seen me so much already, so often forgetting things when I go out then walking back from the elevator or even downstairs
