For d&d? https://2014.5e.tools/dmscreen.html on my laptop along with my spreadsheet of notes.

For something less rules-y? Maybe a PDF of the rules, or multiple copies if I need quick reference to several places.

Because suddenly a large number of people who didn’t know now do?

Oh weird, must just not be showing up for me

It’s not giving the usual “normally costs X” message on the install page, sure this isn’t a forever freebie?

The best open source Video Calling alternative to Discord is Element. It’s not free, so if you’re looking for a free alternative, you could try Element

I’m not particularly confident about the quality of this page!

Supposedly developers get a flat fee for being the weekly freebie, so the money has already changed hands regardless of whether you download it or not

Login-walled. Can you not even watch youtube videos without signing in now?

You can use a free or paid account but some time last year (I think) they also made it so you can use it without even logging in (on android at least)

It’s relatively fresh in my mind fortunately. Have a look on the wiibrew wiki, it probably has all the other hacks available. Also consider a pre-hacked Wii, probably only £10 or so on eBay!

True, maybe I’m overthinking it

Yeah it’s bring-your-own ROM because it’s just a modified version of Dolphin Emulator. I used the Wii trilogy version, had it installed on my WiiU and it was ridiculously easy to dump the ROM with Dumpling (you don’t need a modified console). If you’ve got GameCube/Wii discs then you’ll need a hacked Wii, I think it’s not too hard to hack a Wii if you own specific games (like Brawl which lets you read stages from an SD card and run arbitrary code), I think CleanRip is the tool you use to dump the ROM.

I never played the original on GameCube but I did all three on Primehack on the Steam Deck and it seemed to work pretty well. It took a bit of tinkering to get it working, but it was definitely worth it. Happy to assist if you have any questions!

It’ll be interesting to find out! Personally I can’t imagine they’ll be that bad on race day, but stranger things have happened.

Have you played it on Primehack? Among other fixes it gives it modern dual-stick controls.

I know it’s waived when you crash in qualifying, because you’ve usually demonstrated in practice that the car is fast enough. The original purpose was to keep out cars (not necessarily drivers) that didn’t have the pace, right?

To drive technological innovation, right? What’s developed for racing ends up on the road.

You do not

I guess f1 has changed hands since the last time we saw the 107% rule in action, but I think it would be a worse look if some of the cars were so laughably slow that they couldn’t even qualify but were let in anyway

Sponsors should cough up a bit more cash to build a better car then!

Is that not foreshadowing, or at least a deliberate narrative choice? Frodo knows that Gandalf made a big deal about not being late, so the fact that he was late means some serious shit must have gone down.
