I dont know how to make hard decisions for my players
2025.01.20 08:32 Mundane-Iron-3030 I dont know how to make hard decisions for my players
We have been playing for 3 sesions, and i have tried to give them decisions to create points of no return that change the course of the history, these were mostly moral decisions. As an example the other day they were fighting against a wendigo and his strongest weapon was something fireball-like (we are playing homebrew) and the question was: do you want to use the fireball to save yourselves but also burn the forest and the town inside of the forest killing hundreds or will you try and win without using it, saving the town but maybe dying by the wendigo
Al of the time i was modifiying the dice of the wendigo to make it look as if they could die at any moment but also so that the wendigo looked as if it was closer to being defeated by everyblow by saying things like: when you hit the wendigo you broke his arm and bla bla bla to make sure that they knew they were closer to win every turn (i said this because i dont like showing the data about the enemy to my players, this way they could know that they were damaging him and it was posible to win even without knowing the hp)
The thing is, they didnt even doubted to use the fireball several times even when the whole forest was burning, they managed to become terrorist (not intentional) by the third sesion, and they didnt even care about killing hundreds
Since we are having a lot of fun i want to try to make them feel as if what they are doing has an impact on the story via actions but i dont know how to put a but to his decisions if it isnt something moral
Do you know how to make my players feel as if their actions had weight in the story but also on themselves?

2025.01.20 08:32 ElCampesinoGringo Is it possible to send a Nintendo switch’s audio into/through an FM3?
Weird question I know but I’m using my monitor (no speakers) to play switch and I’m wondering if there’s anyway to make use of my Fm3 + Adam speakers to get sound.
I get that there are easier ways but I’d love to use what I have available if at all possible

2025.01.20 08:32 lowkzydavidd Is this guy dumb?
I previously conducted a personal analysis on the Negative Level of Detail (LOD) Bias setting in NVIDIA’s Control Panel, specifically comparing the “Clamp” and “Allow” options. My findings indicated that setting the LOD bias to “Clamp” resulted in slightly reduced frame times and a marginal increase in average frames per second (FPS), suggesting a potential performance benefit. I shared these results, but another individual disagreed, asserting that a negative LOD bias is better for performance. This perspective is incorrect; in fact, a positive LOD bias is generally more beneficial for performance.
The Negative LOD Bias setting influences texture sharpness and can impact performance. Setting the LOD bias to “Allow” permits applications to apply a negative LOD bias, enhancing texture sharpness but potentially introducing visual artifacts like aliasing. Conversely, setting it to “Clamp” restricts the LOD bias to zero, preventing these artifacts and resulting in a cleaner image.

2025.01.20 08:32 DestructablePinata FOOTWEAR INFO THREAD!
We're getting a lot of repeat threads about footwear, so I'm starting this thread to compile information for newcomers and people who need help. Hopefully, this thread can easily be found so everyone can find what's right for them. If you like that idea, respond below.
If you have something productive to add to the list, please post it below.
If you have any criticisms, post it below, and I'll try to get back to you.
If you need recommendations for footwear, post your questions in THIS THREAD! People who can help can respond directly to you, and this way, the repeat questions won't be taking up tons of space on the subreddit.
First piece of adviceGo to a store and try things on in person. There's no substitute for seeing how things feel on your own feet. What works for one likely doesn't work for the next, so you'll have to do the legwork of trying things on and seeing what suits YOUR feet. Some outfitters in some locations are very knowledgeable and helpful when it comes to assisting with footwear sizing and selection. Others, not so much.
If you don't have that option, be very careful about what footwear you order online. Do your due diligence before ordering and see what reviewers and your peers say on quality, performance, and fitment. You may have to order online, but you don't have to go on a wild goose chase.
Do your due diligence, people.
Boots vs. Trail Runners: Which one?Waterproof boots are better in cold weather and cold, inclement weather. They suffer in hot, humid weather because they cannot dry fast enough if submerged, and you may sweat through them quickly. They do a much better job protecting your feet from foliage, debris, and ingress of water, especially when paired with gaiters. Non-waterproof boots are better for hot, humid environments because they can get wet and dry out as you're moving.
Boots typically have a more rigid midsole, which is typically where the support comes from in a mid boot. The collar doesn't add much support until it gets around the ~7-8" mark and/or made of thick leather. Boots like the Salomon X Ultra series offer no more support than their low-top counterparts. Boots like the Asolo Fugitive GTX and, especially, the Asolo TPS 520 GV Evo will offer loads more support. Supportive boots are better for hauling heavy packs, uneven terrain, sidehilling, and overgrown terrain.
Non-waterproof trail runners are beneficial in warm weather, dry weather, and when you need to do lots of water crossings. They can get soaked and be walked dry quickly. They're not good for harsh terrain and bushwhacking, at least, not for very long. They just aren't durable enough. Never go with GTX low-tops! They still allow the ingress of water very easily due to the low collar, and they will take a very long time to dry because the waterproof-breathable membrane will inhibit the evaporation process. You'll be stuck with waterlogged shoes.
Which one is better? That depends entirely on the wearer's use case. There is no right or wrong answer unless you're jeopardizing your safety or the safety of others on the hike through being ill-prepared. If you want to use a mountaineering boot on a flat, easy trail, more power to you. If you want to use a trail runner in the mountains, be safe but have fun. Do your research and go with what suits you best.
MaterialsLeather vs. Synthetic - Leather is more hard-wearing and durable at the expense of weight and ease of break-in. Synthetics are lighter and more flexible at the expense of durability.
PU vs. EVA midsoles - PU never loses its shape or elasticity, maintaining its original shock absorption and support for the life of the footwear. It will eventually degrade due to hydrolysis; how rapidly depends upon conditions the footwear is stored in and how often it's used. EVA is lighter and lasts indefinitely in storage, but it compresses over time, losing shock absorption and support. Note that while the EVA midsole may store well, other components of the boots may be PU or adhesives that do deteriorate.
GTX or no? - Go with GTX for cold, wet environments, environments that are generally dry but with random showers, and day hikes if the environment is not too hot. Go with non-waterproof options for hot, humid environments, especially with water crossings. GTX will keep water below the collar out, but it will also inhibit breathability and the footwear's ability to dry out. It's a detriment in the swamps but a huge benefit in subfreezing, wet conditions.
Insulation - Personal choice. It may be necessary for some use cases, such as static use in subfreezing temps, but it will also make you sweat more, requiring more frequent sock changes. This is very personal.
MaintenanceBoots and shoes will need regular maintenance to preserve their functionality and increase lifespan.
Generally, water and a nylon bristle brush agree enough. However, both waterproof and non-waterproof footwear should be cleaned regularly with a tech wash of sorts, such as Grangers Footwear + Gear Cleaner or Nikwax Footwear Cleaning Gel to remove dirt and debris.
Waterproof boots and shoes and leather boots and shoes should then be retreated with the appropriate product, such as:
Full-grain leather - Nikwax Waterproofing Wax for Leather; Grangers Waterproofing Wax; Meindl Sport Wax.
Nubuck - Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof; Grangers Footwear Repel Plus; Grangers Waterproofing Wax or Meindl Sport Wax (will change texture and appearance).
Suede - Nikwax Nubuck & Suede Proof or Grangers Footwear Repel Plus.
Synthetics - Nikwax Fabric & Leather Proof or Grangers Footwear Repel Plus.
Read the instructions for your footwear to see what will provide the results you most desire.
Some products can be detrimental to the health of your footwear by drying out leather, preventing conditioning, preventing resoling, rotting stitching, and overly softening leather. Research things before you do them.
Break-in and fitmentGo with what fits best.
Boots and shoes should be comfortable out of the box with no issues, such as slippage, hot spots, pinching, rubbing, pressure, etc. They should be good to go right away. You'll still have to break them in, but there should be no initial discomfort. Break them in gradually with work around the house, followed by yard work, followed by light hikes. After one or two weeks, depending upon the boot, they should be broken-in. Some all-leather boots may take a bit longer.
Try shoes on at the end of the day when your feet are most swollen, wearing the thickest socks you intend to use for hiking. Take the insoles out if that's an option and stand on them shoulder width apart. Your feet should fit within the outlines of the insoles with no overhang or excess space. There should be ⅓ to ½ inch of space between your longest toe and the end of the insole. This will give you a good idea of the fit before you even try on the boots.
Always check the size chart before you buy! Sizing is not uniform between brands!
Brands of footwearI'm not going to name names in the OP because the fact is that it doesn't matter if the footwear doesn't fit properly. There are good brands and bad brands out there, so do your research before you buy. Take reviews with a grain of salt and lean on trusted sources. Do not depend on influencers or shops to suggest the "best" footwear brands. They're trying to make a living, so they're not going to tell you of potential problems from the brands that they are sponsored by or carry in-store.
Do NOT feel bad about using any particular brand! If it works for your feet and your needs, that is literally all that matters. What I and others think of your brand of choice DOES NOT MATTER! Listen to your feet!
If you need help sorting through the plethora of options and information out there, please post below for assistance from myself and your fellow hikers.
SocksGo with synthetics or merino wool blends. Synthetics will dry quickly and remain cool. Wool will insulate to a degree when wet and go longer before it begins to stink. Consider liner socks if you deal with friction or if you have sweaty or sensitive feet. The liners will transfer friction and sweat away from your feet.
I do feel comfortable making some recommendations on socks.
Smartwool and Darn Tough are the two brands I have the most bexperience with, and they both work. Go with the one that fits best. Both will do just fine.
Note: Other good brands are out there, such as Icebreaker. I don't have much experience with them, though.
Do not stack socks on socks on socks. Wear one pair of socks or one pair of socks with a pair of liner socks. You do not want a ton of compression around your feet. That will restrict blood flow and make your feet cold. Make sure your boots or shoes are sized for the socks you intend to wear.
Buy from a reputable store. Always. There are fakes out there.
InsolesAgain, I will make a few recommendations. These are the best ones I've come across in terms of durability, support, and comfort, but they are not the only brands out there. Just make sure you buy from a reputable store because fakes exist.
Superfeet Blue, Green, Orange, and Trailblazer; SOLE; Tread Labs; Currex; Cadence; PowerStep
Also, some insoles can damage the liner and membrane of your boots. It's impossible to say what insoles will do this to all possible boots, so just keep an eye on your boots.
GaitersYes, use gaiters with any waterproof footwear to enhance its ability to prevent ingress of water. There are also non-waterproof gaiters that will prevent ingress of debris but still work well with your non-waterproof footwear.
Outdoor Research is my favorite, trusted brand for waterproof gaiters. There are other brands out there, though.
Dirty Girl Gaiters make excellent non-waterproof options. Again, there are other brands out there.
Foot careMake sure you have moleskin or a similar item on you during hikes. Keep your feet as dry and clean as possible. Use foot powder if you find yourself getting stinky or sweaty or enduring friction.
Change socks regularly. You do not want to keep wet socks on your feet if you can help it. It can even be a danger in frigid temperatures.
Shopping and budgetIf possible, buy from somewhere that will let you return used footwear. Don't just try things at random and waste money and resources. Be methodical in your approach.
Be careful where you buy from because fakes are out there for pretty much all hiking products. Some companies only honor warranties from authorized sellers, too.
As far as budgeting goes, this is a personal choice that depends upon what you're doing, what you can afford, and what you want to pay. I will say that your budget should be as big as you can comfortably make it to allow for the most options when trying things on.
Realistically...You're probably going to have to try a few pairs before you stumble across your Goldilocks pair. That's the nature of the beast. Be patient and settle for nothing less than a perfect fit. Your feet will thank you.
In conclusion...I hope that this has been helpful. Footwear is something that I'm passionate about because it took me a long time to find the right footwear for myself, so I've gone through a lot of time, money, blisters, and bad hikes discovering what does and does not work. If you have questions, post them below. I, and others, will try to help you find the right things for yourself. Take everything with a grain of salt and trust your feet!

2025.01.20 08:32 sccra Ilar/hugger till i armen
Tja. Jag kanske postar det här i fel typ av grupp nu men det får duga.
Precis som caption beskriver så känner jag vid vissa tillfällen och i olika vridmoment att det ilahugger till i stora delar av med arm. Det kan komma närsomhelst utan att jag behöver göra någon stor rörelse, och när det väl händer så hugger det till rejält i ungefär en halv sekund ,nästan så att man vill skrika till av smärtan. Jag var lite öm under armbågen nu i helgen, men så långt jag vet har inte ramlat eller slagit mig.
Hoppas jag kan få något tips på vad det kan var för något, har nämligen aldrig haft en liknande känsla…
(Om ni vet någon grupp detta inlägg hade passat i så skriv det gärna)
Tack på förhand.
