  • The DM describes some fancy heavy door. Someone tries to listen through the door. Barbarian tries to bash it open but rolls a nat 1 and stubs his toe taking 2 damage. Rogue tries to pick it, rolls a 3 and ends up locking the door. Cleric doesn’t even realize there’s a door there. Lack of skill continues ad nauseum for 20 minutes.




  • Like the other person said, a scam, but to give the claim…

    Black water or alkaline black water is power-packed with minerals such as magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium.

    Sounds like my well water if you boil off some of the water.

    Its distinct colour is attained by the elevated alkaline water pH that ranges between eight to nine.

    PH doesn’t change the color. A thing that changes PH may also change the color but the PH itself is not responsible.











  • The most power hungry (modern) TV I’ve seen was 100W. Most fridges nowadays are similar, 100W but intermittent.

    A fridge is not “the tiniest bit of convenience”.

    Box fans don’t really help when it’s 100F+ and 90%+ humidity. Where I am it you leave a house without air condition for even a month during the summer you’ll have mold and the ceiling will be falling down.

    For anyone that reads this and thinks that cheap solar setups leave you barely scraping by, I’ll giv e acounter example. I helped my parents do solar on their RV. It’s 720W of panels, 3000W inverter output and cost a little under $3k but could have been cheaper, the cost is due a bit to us being inexperienced at the time and also overbuilding it to allow for more panels. It can run all the modern conveniences (for up to 3 days with no sun) except the big airconditioner, but can run a window unit that conditions the bedroom and dries the rest of the RV. If we were to do it again though we could make it run the big one with pretty much no increase in price.


  • Also if you happen to be on undeveloped land with no power, the electric company often charges $1200 or more per pole to get to you, so it very quickly becomes worth it to just do off grid solar.

    There was one guy I saw who was 400ft from power but thepower company wanted so much that for a tiny fraction of that he was able to put in a really nice off-grid solar setup. Plus then you don’t need to deal with connecting to the grid or any sort of permitting depending on where you are or how little you care about permits.
