I’m David. I live in Tacoma, Washington. I do square foot gardening, home automation with Home Assistant, and have too many cats.

You think you saw me behind some ferns? You just might have!

  • I get the joke, but with no prior context it’s kind of a jerk move to assume the player already opened it if they asked for a perception OR an investigation. A Mimic would normally just ambush you OR attack when the player opens them. If it was opened it’s probably already attacking, and if it was closed then performing a perception shouldn’t cause initiative until rolled (if the mimic noticed you noticing it, for instance).

    I’ll…I’ll crawl back into my dingy nerd tavern now…















  • ABSOLUTELY.

    Never use one source for critical data! One backup is no backups! No backups is playing with the entropic forces of the universe!

    1. Have at least three copies of your data - primary, backup, and offsite backup.
    2. Store the copies on at least two different media types.
    3. Keep at least one of those copies offsite - what if your house or datacenter burned down?

    If you don’t care about recovering your photos, by all means use an actively changing project as your sole means of data storage!
